UPRISING IN THE
PHILIPPINES IS
MINOR incident
According to Washington lnforma-
tion.-.U. S. Officials Have
Heard Little of It.

Washington, Dec. 26.---OEicial
communication of a native nprisin e
at Manila reported in press dis
patches, was still lacking at the
War department tonight. 4S hours
after message of inquiry had been
sent. The report designated that the
uprising had promptly been sup
pressed and was OF such a minor
character that officials of the In
sular bureau did not view the mat
ter as iustifying another message,
asking for particulars. 1t Is as
sumed that the delay is due to the
absence from Manila of Gov. Gen.
Harrison, who is on an inspection
tour among the outlying islands of
the group. The general staff has
had no report whatever of an up
rising. from Mai. Gen. Barry. COM

admiralty of an attempt by British
war ships against the German coast
Is the first intimation of what ap-
pears to be a reply to the recent at
tack by German cruisers against
En nglish seaports of Scarborough,
Whithy and Hartlepool. The British
authorities have az yet made no
mention of these operations.
From the Cuxhaven in the Ger
man announcement 1t would seem
that the German rivors indicated
were the Elbe and the Wester. Cux-
haven is fortified seaport Of Ger
many IS miles northwest of Ham
burg.
