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. >len Held by Filipinos.

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.
