Tokyo, Feb. 18.—A revolt has broken out among the Hindu soldiers at
Singapore, one of the Straits(?) Settlements belonging to Great Britain,
according to newspaper despatches received here today from the Malay
Archipelago. Marines were handed at Singapore from Japanese and French
warships and some fighting has taken place between the mutineers and the
men from the war vessels.
The Hindu mutineers numbered eight hundred but later half of this
number is reported to have surrendered and the revolt is said to be subsiding.
