The vessel is in mmand of John O'Brien.
a Hall gate p lot. known as Daredevil
Johnnie. owing to his previous exploits
as a daring and successful filibuster. He
is said to have received ”.000 for his
share in the haaardous venture. The vee-
sei is cooled for a journey of at least so
days.
What follows is a correct record of the
dormuda'a movements during the day and
night preceding hcr disappearance in the
storm oil Asbury Park.
Signs of activity were observed in the
neighborhood of the Bermuda early Satur-
day morning. When Daredevil .inck

ed. This had all been prearranged. It
was part. of the programme of Daredevil
Jack. He is an experienced filibuster. He
took the famous yacht Rambler to the
Mosquito coast 15 years ago it was he
who. Ill 1887, run the blockade at Haiti
with the Carolina hliller, carrying more
and ammunition for the insurgents of that
Island. Captain O'Bricn's special field of
operations has of late been Hollgato. but
he cherishes n predilection for adventures
involving danger to himself and his asso-
ciatoa ’
On this occasion the captain was accom.
panied by two men. One was tall and
ilender and had light side whiskers and
mustache. The second was a big. dark
man, about the age of to. He remained
but five minutes aboard the Bermuda and
then retreated to the shore. Hols supposed
to have been Mr. llnrt, who owns the Bar-

space of five minutes drunk coffee and

There was feasting on board the Bar

to no excess. “Grub" was uervcd to the
bands in tho fo’cnsilc. It wont well

Spain's Soldiers Fight Each other.
HAVANA, March lit—A stupid mistake
. has resulted in the killing of a number of
Spanish soldiers by their fellow Spaniards.
The battalion of San Quintin was up.
preaching the town of Cnnu, aevcn‘ miles
from Havana, to save the buildings of a
burning plantation. The town shotLtly
before that had been attacked by the in-
surgcnia. and the garrison. without bail-
Iug the San Quintin battalion and taking
thorn for the insurgents, returned to a sec-
lcurl attack, opening upon then with vol-
eye. .
The San Quintin battalion, ou the other
hand, mistook the garrison for the insure
pants and charged three times with great
determination, taking the town. '
The blasts from the comet and the
cries of ”Viva Espana!" on the part of the
San Quintin soldiers were not sufficient
to put a stop to the firing on either side.
Before the mistakewns dimvered the .‘lan
Quintin battalion had lost 19 soldiers
killed and a captain, s lieutenants and :37
soldiers wounded. ‘
Insurgents Captlre a Il'owrs.
Antonio lacco, Quivicau, Benders and
learnt attacked the town of Mabano on
Friday night, and an obstinate fighter-
sued. The unison of the forte, consist-
Iug of 56 man, made a heroic defenn and
two Spanish gunboats in the neighboring
waters assisted by bombarding the insur-
gcute.
The utmost efforts of the Spaniards.
however. did not avail to prevent the la-
surgenta capturing the town. They had
possession of it for atime and upon ro
treating in the direction of Pinar del Rio
they burned the greater part of the town.
The insurgents are repaid to have sue
iained a great ion.
