FIFTY KILLED
BY FILIPINOS
American . Troops Surprised ,
While at Breakfast.
SAMAR ISLAND THE SCENE
Of Twenty-Two Who Escaped Eleven
Were Wounded—All Stores, Rifles
and Ammunition of the Ameri- ..
cans Were Lost—Disaster
Shocks Washington.
A special from Manila says: A dis
astrous fight between United States
troops and insurgents occurred Satur
day in the island of Samar, near Balan
giga. A large body of insurgents at
tacked company C, Ninth infantry,
only twenty-two members of the com
pany escaping.
All the others are reported to have
been killed.
The company were at breakfast when
when attacked and made a determined
resistence; but the overwhelming num
bers of the insurgents compelled them
to retreat.
According to the latest returns the
strength of the company was seventy
t\VO. The survivors include Captain
Thomas W. Connelly. First Lieutenant
Edward A. Bumpus and Dr. It. S. Gris
wold, surgeon.
Captain Edwin V. Bookmiller, of the
Ninth infantry, reports that General
Hughes is assembling a force to attack
the insurgents.
The insurgents captured all the
stores and ammunition of the company
and all the rifles except 26.
Saw Service In China.
Company C. was a portion of the
Ninth regiment of United States infan
try, which went to China at the time
of the boxer outbreak and while there
troops went to Manila and wero en
gaged in provost duty in that city. Dur
ing the past summer a battalion of the
Ninth was sent to Samar.
Washington Is Shocked.
News of the disastrous tight between,
troops of the Ninth infantry and the
insurgents in the island of Samar was
sent promptly by General Hughes com
manding in that island, to general Chaf
fee, at Manila, and by hiim transmitted
to the war department, lt reached the
department during the early hours of
Sunday and Adjutant General Corbin
realizing its importance, at once made
it public, after sending a copy to the
white house. General Chaffee’s dis
patch, which agrees with the Associa
ted Press dispatch, Is as follows:
“Manila, September 29.—Adjutant
General, Washington: Hughes reports
following from Bussey, southern Sa
mar: Twenty-four men Ninth regiment
United States infantry—11 wounded—
have just arrived from Balangiga; re
mainder company killed. Insurgents
secured all company supplies and all
rifles except 12. Company was attack

pany was 72 strong; officers, Thomas
w. Connally (captain), Edward A.
Bumpus (first lieutenant^, Dr, R. S.
Griswold (major surgeon!), escaped.

American forces of occupation num
ber in all between 2,000 and 2,500 men.
These are distributed among various
posts in the island, a large number be
ing located at the more important cen
ters. Spain never made any effort to
occupy Samar, and it only has been for
probably three months past that the
United States has undertaken that
■work.
The latest report made by General
Hughes to the wajr department was
that the number of insurgent rifles lr.
the island aggregated about three hun

rilla warfare, and operations against
them were difficult. The disaster to

BLACKSHEAR, GA., THURSDAY. OCTOBER 3 . U>()t.
FILIPINOS PAID DEARLY.
Members of Unfortunate Company C,
Killed On e Hundrea and Forty
Bolo Men Before Dying.
A Manila special says: General
Hughes, from the Island of Samar, re
ports the arrival of Sergeant Markley
and one private at Tannan from the
fight at Balangiga, where over forty
men of company C, Ninth infantry,
were killed by insurgents, who attack
ed the troops while at breakfast Sat
urday last. The men who have reach
ed Tannan say that the officers of the
company, who were at first reported to
have escaped, were killed with the ma
jority of the company. The troops
were attacked, while unprepared, by
400 bolo men, of whom the Americans
killed 140. Many of the soldiers were
killed in their quarters before they
had time to grasp their rifles. General
Hughes is going to the scene of the
disaster and will personally command
the troops.
A new branch of the Katipunan has
been discovered at Tarlac. capital of
the province of that name. The object
of the society is the slaughter of the
whites. Marcelino Mariviue, presii
dent of Banoang, is the cnief of the
new branch, which includes numbers
of the native constabulary who were
recently armed, ^.ne policeman admits
that he was taxed $- ana was ordered
to make bolos. A regular collection
has been made by the organization
from the natives, either by persuasion
or threats, and an uprising had been
planned for an early ftate.
The conditions in Tayabas and Ba
tangas are not reassuring. The worst
form of guerrilla warfare prevails
'here. The insurgent forces are dis
tributed, under cover, along every road
and trail and wait for travelers in am
bush. The insurgent leader, Caballos,
who formerly belonged to General
Cailles’ command, but who refused to
surrender with Cailles, is retreating to
the mountains.

DEATH STOPS COURT
Judge Wilson, Senior Member of
Schley Connsel Dies Suddenly.
CAUSED SURPRISE AND SHOCK
Dread Summons Came Without Warn
ing at Shoreham Hotel—Ad
miral Schley and All Con
nected Express Sorrow.
A Washington special says: The
Schley court, of inquiry was brought
to a sudden termination for the day
eighteen minutes after convening
Tuesday morning by the announce
ment of the sudden death of Jeremiah
Wilson, senior counsel for Admiral
Bchley.
The announcement was made to Uio
court by Hon. Isador Raynor, assist
ant counsel, in the following lan
gifage:
“I have n very sad announcement
to make. I have just heard of the
death of Judge Wilson. I left him at
10 o’clock this morning, slightly indis
posed. I was with him until late last
night. I saw him this morning at 8
o’clock and left him at 10. We have
confiremed the rumor through the
telephone that he has just died at the
Shoreham hotel, and I would respect
fully ask the court, if it meets with
the approval of the court, to adjourn
for today.”
Admiral Dewey said:
“I have to announce that owing to
the death (rf Judge Wilson, of coun
sel, the court will adjourn for today
until tomorrow morning.”
The announcement of Judge Wil
son's death created consternation not
cr.!y among members of the court, but
among the spectators, and some min
utes elapsed before people generally
would accept the report.
The judge had been present in the
court all day Monday, and while he
had not participated to any great ex
tent in the proceedings, he had ap
peared physically active and wide
awake to all that was said and done.
The report first reached Mr. Ray
nor in the shape of a rumor a minute
or two after Machinist A. B. Claxton,
of the Texas, the second witness, had
been present on the stand.
Captain Parker and Mr. Teague, of
Admiral Schley’s counsel, immediate
ly went to the telephone. They re
turned in a few moments, saying that
the report had been confirmed.
Mr. Raynor then made his an
nouncement to the court and asked
an adjournment for the day.
All the members of the court, in
cluding counsel for the government
and for Admiral Schley, expressed
the utmost surprise and sorrow over
the news, while Admiral Schley him
self said:
“The news is so shocking that 1
cannot trust myself to give expression
to my estimate of the man. 1 ran
only say that I hare lost not only a
clear-headed and brilliant counsel, but
also a dear and much beloved friend.
I am shocked beyond measure at. the
news and find myself almost unable
to accept the report.”
It was announced at. the court room
that Judge Wilson’s death had oc
curred at 11:08 a. m., at the Shoreham
hotel, and that It had been due to
heart failure, superinduced by an at
tack of acute Indigestion, coupled wltu
Bright’s disease.
Judge Wilson was a native of Ohio
and was 73 years old. Early in life
he removed to Indiana, where he serv
ed with distinction on the common
pleaR and circuit court benches. Ho
represented an Indiana district In tho
forty-second and forty-third Aon
grosses. After his retirement from
congress he formed a partnership
with an associate in congress, Judge
Shellabarger, and the firm soon took
rank at the very front of the Washing
ton bar. Among the well-known cases
fn which Mr. Wilson was counsel
the Star Route trials, the Holt will
ease, the Breckinridge-Pollard breach
of promise case, the trial of Captain
Jiowgate for embezzlement, the court
martial proceedings against General
Swann, the Oberlin Carter ease and
the Venezuela, Alabama, French spo
liation and Louisiana Abra Mexican
claim cases.

And ail my art and skill can do
If you Just, call I’ll do for you.
