the plans for an upri-iiig, thus enabl
ing a force of oon-tiibulnry and po

American sailor seized chairs when
a force of Filipino approached a
dance hall in which they were gath
ered, ami using the chairs as weapon-,
routed the Filipino, of whom
quite a number were injured.
The rising was evidently poorly or
