Deo. 19—The claim so strenoualy made
by the natives that they are a highly
civilized race is not borne out by the
facts, according to Spanish refugees
from the north, who have just reached
here. They say after the surreuder
of the town of Aparri, the insurgents
formed a parade, the central feature of
which was a Spanish lieutenant, who
was carried along the streets suspended
from a bamboo pole, to which his hands
and feet were tied, just as hogs are car-
ried here by coolies.
On arrival at the plaza, the procession
halted, the pole was placed upon two
forked sticks and a squad of rebels pro-
ceeded to terrorize their helpless vic-
tim by shooting as close to his head as
possible without wounding him. When
the unfortunate man was tiucouseious
with terror, the procession moved
again.
Another story is told of a Spanish
officer being confined in a cell with his
hands tied behind his back and com-
pelled to eat portions of the food allot-
ed to him from the floor of his cell like
a dog. Not satisfied with this, his cap-
tors are said to have hooked a rope to
his swollen wrists and through a pul
ley overhead hauled him off his feet un-
til he fainted with agony.
Still another refugee states because
he threw some papers which he did not
wish the rebels to have into a cesspool,
the natives, upon learning it, dropped
him into the hole and compelled him to
recover the papers, after which he was
paraded through the streets for hours.

he was cheered by several hundred per j

A reception committee waited with
carriages and along the route from the
station to his hotel, the Merrimac s com-

The streets in the vicinity of the hotel
were crowded, lu the corridor of the
hotel supixirted by a local reception
committee. Lieutenant Hobson received
and shook hands with several hundred
men.
The more exciting part came a few
minutes later, when the lieutenant was
escorted to the parlors on the second
floor, where over four hundred women,

to head their processions, and bv dint of
kicks and blows compelled their cap
fives to produce plenty of discord,
which highly amused the natives,
The natives indignantly deny these
allegations and their newspapers retali
