Uprising on the Admiralty Islands

ADVICES via Victoria state that there has been an uprising of the natives on the Admiralty Islands. The crew of the German ship Metzke was murdered, and the rifles of her stores used in a tribal war. The German cruiser Moeve, with a posse of native police, was sent to the scene of the fight, and after considerable difficulty landed a force, drove off the natives, and destroyed a village. Further trouble is anticipated.
