PASSENGERS FIGHT CHINESE PIRATES Desperate Battle in Formosa Strait U. S. Cruisers Go to Rescue.
(American News Service) Shanhal. April 25. A desperate hand to band battle with Chinese pirate vai told of here today by passengers and crew of the I'aciic Mall steamship Asia, which struck a reef and was sunk at the northern entrance of the Formoha strait. The passengers arrived here today after their thrilling experience, but two of the crew are missing having been seized by the pirates as hontages to guarantee tho payment of 1300 tribute levied by the brigands of the sea. The United States cruisers Saratoga, New Orleans and Albany are rushing to the scene of the wreck. A Chinese Junk swarming with pirates approached the Asia as she utruck and was settling In the water. The pirates made their craft fast to the Asia and swarmed up the sides of the steamship with pistols and cutlasses. Mad Gallant Fight. The. passengers and crew of the Asia armed themselves and gave battle to the men of the black flag. After a hard fight the pirates were driven from ono side of the ship. In the
fog small boats tiled ' with Chinese
cut throats managed to make their way to the companion ladders on the
opposite side and the men swarmed up, taking-the defenders unawares. The battle raged all over the ship, the pirate seizing mattresses from the berths which they used as shields. They built a barricade on the forecastle and raked tho ship with their rifle and revolver fire. Finally the crew managed to drive off the buccaneers and tho work of transferring the imssengers and mails to the steamship Shaoshing which had been standing by, offering Interference, was begun. The pirates then made a final dash upon ono small boat, capturing A. E. Cozen and It. Araunder of the Asia. The Europeans among the Asia's passengers, fearing that the two captives would be put to death decided to attack tho pirate ship. The battle was then transferred to the Chinese Junk. Captain Gaudroger, commander of the Asia, gave' permission to attack the craft, and took part In it. At least four of the Fi rates were shot down and killed In the boarding qf the Junk. An educated Chinese Jsoy drew up a contract by which the pirates prom
ised to molest the Asia's passengers no further if $3,000 were paid. One woman passenger was wounded lo the fighting. She was Mrs. Chen Dong, wife of an Oakland, Cal., merchant.
