jumped into the sea. At this juncturc
help arrived from the other ships and
the officers OF the Iibertc decided TO

cellent that the men who had jumped

Some idea OF tho violence OF the eX-

ENSIGN HOVEY SLAIN
IN THE PHILIPPINES

WASHINGTON, Sept, 25,-Ensign
Charles f. Hovey, commanding the lii.
tie gunboat Pampanga, was killed by
hostile natives Yesterday at the Nacans
islands. which form part of the Philip
pine archipelago. Several sailors of
Ensign Hovey's party were severely
wounded. Details of the affair have
not reached the navy department.
Commander Fays, in charge of the
naval station Mt Olopgapo cabled the
brief report from Commander Schoen-
felde of the gunboat Quiros, cruising
in southern Philippine waters. He re-
ported that there had been an action
Yesterday between the forco from the
gunboat Pampanga and hostile iacans
on the Basilan islands. which lie Just
south Of the town of Iamboango and
between Mindanao and the Jolo group.
j. II. Catherwood, ordinary seaman,
was severely wounded. J. II. McGuire,
hospital apprentice, and G. +. Hen.
reichen. machinist' S mate, second class,
were slightly wounded.
Ensign Charles f.. Hovey graduated
from the naval academy in the class Of
1907. Next of kin is his mother, Louise
S. Hovey, of 81 State street, Ports
mouth, \. II.
Naval officials expressed the belief
that the party was on an exploring ex.
pediton in the interior Of the island
of Basilan. and suddenly met the va.
cans, who arc a primitive Malayan tribe
and fanatical adherenets of the Moslem
faith. The Yacans are very poor and
their principal weapon is the famous
sumpitan'f or blow gun. with which
they project poisoned darts to great dis
