Fierce Fight With Philippine Constabulary Manila, June 2.
Fifty-three—Moro religious fanatics, including Akbara, the self-styled Prophet, were killed in a fight with the constabulary on the Island of Pata near Jolo.
Akbara was erroneously reported to have been killed in the last fight, of which no details have yet been received.
Later.
Eight hundred and six fanatics surrendered after the fight. It is estimated that 200 more are at large, including three petty chieftains.
Governor-General Wood and other authorities think that the trouble is over but the Inspector of the Sulu Department is sending constabulary reinforcements for the purpose of combing the island and taking in the recalcitrants.—Reuter.
