capital of Panay, one of tbe srlnclpal
islands ol the Visayat groupt
"The insurgents have occupied Lin
ranis. Oton and Pavla, suburbs of

abandoned the mole and destroyed tbe
connecting bridges. Business la par
alysed, and the inhabitants are in a

Dnl ted States cruiser Charleston to re

incapable of affording them protection."
It it reported also that the insurgents
have taken the whole of tbe islands of
Negros and Zebo, of tbe Visayas group.
As tbe cable connections are cut, it it
impossible to confirm tbe rumor.
November 0 General Bios, Spanish
governor of the Visayas, It said to have
declared a seven days' aimistioe in or

a view of transferring control to tbe
Americana.
Major Bell has gone to Hollo to ascer

REFUSE TO LEAVE.
Mutiny
Among Spanish Soldlere In
Puerto Prlaelpa.
Washington, Nov. 15. Adjutant
General Corbin received a dispatch to
day announcing that tbe Eighth cavalry
sailed thii morning from Savannah for
Puerto Principo, Cuba. The regiment
will be the American garrison at Puer
to Principe and Nuevitas.
In this connection an interesting bit
of information has reached tbe war de
partment. Arrangements have been
made by the Spanish authorities to
send back to Spain the Spanish troops,
numbering 9,500 men, upon the arrival
of the American garrison. It was ex
pected tbey would sail Wednesday or
Thursday, bnt an unexpected obstacle
bat arisen among the men themselves.
Tbey are on the verge of mutiny, open
ly declaring they will not return to
Spain until they have received their
pay, now far in arrears, for service in
Cuba. ' Tbe mutiny extends not only to
the enlisted men bnt to their officers,
and is directed against the executive
official! of the government on tbe
Island. Some of the men bave not
been paid for Dearly year, and to all
of them several month. of pay is due.
The situation has created no particu
lar concern In the minds oi the Amer
ican authorities, at it it not likely
seriously to affect the control of that
portion of the island by the American
forces; bnt it is realised that these
8,500 soldiers. If they should persist in
tbelt refusal to return to Spain, might
become dependents whom it would be
difficult to care for, and nltimatel.
perhaps, a menace to good government
In the Island. Tbe Spanish authorities,
express no fear of their ability to solve
tbe problem presented, but how they
will solve it if the men, backed by
their officers, absolutely refuee to return
borne without their pay ia not clear. .

tives to admit of no further discussion

mar be protests which we shall be
compelled to regard.

Tho fact that the Teresa, a vessel
drawing S3 feet of water and watei log
ged aa she was when abandoned, and
now probably drawing nearly 80 feet,
had been driven in 12 feet of water is
regarded by naval officers as evidence

porary relief. Continuing, the resolu
tions recommended;
"That an undenominational eommrs
sion bo formed to procure funds with
which to carry this plan Into effect."
