Americans in Battle With Mexican Patrol

San Diego May 19. The American fishing launch New Ancono arrived with bullet holes in her hull after an attack by the Mexican patrol launch Ensenada.

Reports from Ensenada say a Mexican cantema officer aboard the patrol boat was shot five times by American fishermen and died shortly after the patrol boat reached the Mexican port.
