terized the defense as an ‘‘exquisite ro
mance.”

his speech. Bryan continued through

FIFTEEN AMERICANS
CAPTURED BY REBELS
A Party From tlie Yorktown
Caught In Ambush.
OFFICER AND BOAT CREW
Lieuirnniit Gilmore, AVitli an Kxpchi
tion S:-nt to Release Spaniards on
Kast Luzon, Fall Into the Enemy’s
Hands and Their Kate Unknown.
Washington, April 19. —The navy de
partment having requested a correction
of portions of Admiral Dewey’s dispatch
of yesterday which were not decipher
able, was today able to famish the full
text of the dispatch, which is as follows:
“The Yotktown visited Baler, Luzon,
east coast of Luzon, P. I , April 12, for
the purpose of rescuing and bringing
away the Spanish forces, consisting of
80 soldiers, three officers and two
priests, who were surrounded by 400 in
surgents. Ssoine of the insurgents armed
with Mauser rifles as reported by na
tives.
“Lieutenant J. C. Gilmore, while
making an examination of the mouth
of rbe river in an armed boat, was am
bushed, fired upon and captured. Fare
unknown, as insurgents refused to com
municate afterward. The following are
missing:
“The officer previously referred to,
Chief Quartermaster W. Walton, Cox
swain J. Ellsworth, Gunner’s Mate H.
S. Hygard, Sailmaker’s Mare Vendgit,
Seamen W. IL Rynders and C. W.
Woodbury, Apprentices D. W. A. Ven
ville, J. Peterson, Ordinary Seamen F.
Brisolde and O. B. McDonald, Lands
men L. T. Edwards, F. Anderson, J.
Dillon ana C. A. Morrissey.”
May He Humanely Treated.
The officials of the navy department
are confident that such of the men of
the Yorktown as escaped being killed
outright in the first ambuscade were
well treated by the insurgents. Some
time ago the war department made in
quiry as to the number of American
prisoners held by the Filipinos. In re
ply, General Otis referred to these sol
diers and said that they were being
j fairly treated by the insurgents, he sup
plying funds to defray the cost of their
food.
The reports made to the navy depart
ment by Paymaster Wilcox, one of
Dewey’s officers, who made'a trip across
the island of Luzon, from Manila to the
north coast, described the condition of
the Spanish officials who were the pris
oners of the iusurgents as very com
fortable.
In many cases, he said, the officials
were only nominally in confinement,
being allowed the liberty of the towns.
The officials are hopeful that Gilmoi - e
and his men who survived the ambus
cade will some day regain their liberty.
The department has sent no instruc
tions to Admiral Dewey a.s to the course
he shall pursue, believing that he is
fully competent to deal with the situa
tion and resting secure in the assurance
that he will spare no efforts to rescue
Gilmore and his men if they are alive.
Lieutenant J. O. Gilmore is well
known in Washington, having been
stationed here for some time, and his
wife and family live here. He was born
in Philadelphia July 10, 1854, and was
appointed a naval cadet from Arizona
in September, 1871. He reached his
present grade of lieutenant in 1891. His
main service has been on the Mononga
hela, Marcon, Bancroft, Vesuvius aud
Machias, besides considerable service ou
the boards.
Just a year ago be reported to the
St. Paul, then commissioned as an
auxiliary cruiser, and served on that
vessel under Captain Sigsbee through
out the war. On Jan. 14, last, he was
ordered to the hospital ship Solace,
which was about to sail for Manila, and
on arrival there was assigned by Ad i
miral Dewey to the Yorktown.

ADMIRAL DEWEY NOTIFIED.
Strange Disappearance of Lieutenant
Gilmore mid Fourteen Men.
Manila, April 19.— Admiral Dewey
has been notified of the strange disap
pearance of J. C. Gilmore and 14 mem
bers of the United States gunboat York
town. On Saturday last the Yorktown
anchored off Baler, on the east coast of
Luzon and about 200 miles from here,
where there was a Spanish garrison of
about 50 men, which had been defend
ing itself against several hundred Pink
ippine insurgents for months past.
Lieutenant Gilmore, Ensign W. IT.
Standley and a boat’s crew were sent up
the river from Baler bay to communi
cate with the Spaniards, the town of
Baler being situared some distance in
land. Ensign Staudlev, who landed at
the mouth of the river, reports that h?
heard three volleys, a bugle call and
cheers from up the river, but that the
automatic gun which was part of the
equipment of the boat was not heard
firing.
Standley later paddled to the York
town in a canoe. A search was made
for the Yorktown’s boat and her crew,
but no trace of them was found and the
Yorktown sailed for Iloilo, from which
place her commander cabled to Admiral
Dewey his theories that the Filipino*
had captured or sunk the boat or that
the Spaniards had rescued the Ameri
can party.
A scouting party of American troops
today found a rebel skirmish line more
than a mile long east of Malolos. A
sharp fusillade followed but no losses
were sustained.
Brigadier General Charles King, who
has been taken suddenly ill and who iu
unable to continue in command of hu>
brigade, has been relieved of further
duty and been ordered to return to tho
United States on the first transport sail
ing from here for home.
