The insurgents were supplied with arms and ammu- nition captured from the Spaniards, as well as from a supply brought by the small steamer Faion of Amoy.

They were confined in prisons formerly belonging to themselves, and among them were captains, majors, colonels and even generals in their gaudy uniforms, a relic of former splendor.
