Juragua, Cuba, via Kingston, Ja

States and Spain are almost face to
face and tess than four miles apnrt.
The picket lines at certain points are
within hailing distance of the enetny.
It seems certain that the battle of San
tiago must come within a week.
Last Friday's fight of Colonel Wood's
rough riders and the troopers of the
First and Tenth regular cavalry wit'
be known in history as the battle of
La Quaalna. That it did not end in
the complete slaughter of the Ameri
cans was not due to any miscalcula
tion la the plan of the Spaniards, for
as perfect an ambuscade as was ever
formed in the brain of an Apache
Indian was prepared, and Lleutenaui
Colonel Roosevelt and his men walked
SQuarely Into It. For an hour and a
half they held their ground under n
perfect storm of bullets from the
front and sides, and then Colonoi
Wood at the right and Lieutenant
Colonel Roosevelt at the left led u
charge which turned the tide of bat
tle and sent the enemy flying over the
hills toward Santiago.
General Young commanded the ex
pedition, and was with the regulars,

while Colonel Wood directed the oper
ations of the rough rldrs several miles
west
It is now definitely known that 16
men on the American side were killed,
while 60 were wounded or are reported
to be missing. It is impossible to cal
culate the Spanish losses, tut It la
known that they were far heavier than
those of Americans, at least as regards
actual loss of life. Already 87 dead
Spanish Boldlers have been found and
burled, while many others are un
doubtedly lying in the thick under
brush on the side of the gully, and on
(he slope of the hill, where the main
body of the enemy was located. The
wounded were all removed.

It is probable that at least ten In
the list of wounded will die.
That the Spaniards were thoroughly
posted aa to the route to be taken
by the Americans In their movement
towards Sevllla was evident, as shown
by the careful preparations they had
made. Where the fight occurred the
roads are but little more than gul
lies, rough and narrow, and at places
almost Impassable. Nearly half a mile
separated Roosevelt's men . from the
regulars, and between them and on
both sides of the road la the thick
underbrush was concealed a force of
Spaniards that must have been large,
ludglng from the terrific and constant
lire they poured in on the Americans.
1 ' tVn two hours' flchtlns during
which the volunteers battled against
their concealed enemy enough deeds
of heroslm were done to fill a vol
ume. One of the men of Troop B,
desperately wounded, waa lying
squarely between the lines of Are.
Surgeon Church hurried to his aide,
and, with bullets pelting all around
him, dressed the man's wound, ban
daged It and walked unconcernedly
back, aoon returning with two men
and a Utter. The wounded man was
placed on the litter and brought Into
our lines. Another soldier of Troop L,
concealing himself aa best he could be
hind a tree, gave up his place to a
wounded companion and a moment or
two later was himself wounded.
Sergeant Bell stood by the tide of

Captain Capron fell he gave the aer

Sergeant Hamilton Fish. Jr.. was the
first man killed by the Spanish fire.
Colonel Rooaevelt, la front ot hla
men, snatched a rl and ammuni
tion belt from a woiJed soldier and,
cheering and yelling with hla men,
led the advance. For a moment the
bullets were singing like a swarm of
beea all around them, and every In
stant some poor fellow went down.
Colonel Wood, with the right wing,
charged straight at a blockhouse about
800 yards away, and Colonel Roose
velt, on the left, charged at the same
time. Up the men went, yelling like
fiends and never stopping to return
the fire of the Spaniards, but keeping
on with a grim determination to cap
ture that blockhouse. That charge was
the end. When within 600 yards of
the coveted point the Spaniards broke
and ran.
GERMANY TO BLAME.
But
For Her Interference Mnnllu
Would Hove fiurrendertMl.
Hong Kong, June 28. A dispatch
boat just arrived from Manila, having
left there June 22, brings the followliiK
advices:
An American official at Cavlte writes
aa follows: "If great bloodshed aud
destruction come to Manila, Spain
may justly blame the Germans. Man
ila would have surrendered before the
arrival of the German squadron with
out bloodshed, but now, owing to the
moral support of its presence, the city
refuses to surrender.
The Spaniards claim to have driven
the rebels back, but really the posi
tion la unchanged. The arrival of the
American troops la awaited, and they
are expected any day. The Spanish
outposts have prepared to retire
promptly to the walled citadel, and will
probably make only a nominal re
sistance.
The Spaniards continue their nightly
fusillade, but the volunteers decline
to go to the trenches, while many of
the regulars are idling about the town
Thousands of trees In the vicinity of
the citadel have beea cut down, but
the botanical gardens remain. All food
1b held at famine prices.
General Agulnaldo, according to let
tera brought here from Cavlte by a
German steamer, occupies the mansion
of the late governor of Cavlte, but he
will shortly move to Imus to make
room for the American troops. The
insurgents now have 6,000 prisoners
A hundred and eighty-seven of the
Spanish wounded have been sent to
Manila, with a flag of truce by permis
sion of Admiral Dewey. The wounded
8panlsh officers, with one exception,
are at Cavlte.
The Spanish brigadier Moret was
killed at San Fernandlua in an at
tempt to force th rebel lines.

line occur, thus securing comparatively
safe retreat from rifle nre In case
parts of the trenches are captured.
Vpon one of these works modern guns
have been mounted. They can b

Washington. June 28. The adminis
tration yesterday Anally came to a de
elalon to send an American squadron
to the Spanish coast and Into the Med
iterranean. ' The first announcement
yesterday, through a bulletin posted
at the navy department of the govern
ment's Intention, waa received with
Incredulity. There was a suspicion
that the story was being floated to de
ceive the Spanish government How
over, when later in the day the de
tail of the veasels selected to consti
tute Commodore Watson's . eastern
squadron was announced, and offlrlul
orders were given to provision the
fleet for four months it became appar
ent to the last doubter that the gov
ernment was In earnest In thla purpone
to dispatch the fleet to Europe. The
three vessels selected as colliers have
started already on their way to New
port News to take on a large supply of
coal. It will require about a week to
get this down to Bamieion's fleet, so
If the start Is to be made from that
point It will be Impossible for Com
modore Watson to get away before tho
Fourth of July.
This would seem to be an auspicious
date for the beginning of an expedition
that will, for the first time In Hi

world's history, start from the new
world to attack continental Europe.
No attempt Is made to deny that the
government Is Influenced In ordering
this movement by a desire to check
the progress eastward of the Cadi
fleet. It was not believed that the
Spanish admiral could be guilty of the
folly ot uncovering Ws home ports In
this fashion, but Inasmuch as he seems
determined to do so the naval strate
gists could not do less than take ad
vantage of the magnificent opportunity
afforded to strike a crushing blow at
Spain, and thereby perhaps save much
time and loss of life and money In the
conduct of the tedious campaign In
Cuba.
The determination to eend this rquad
ron against Ppaln was the outcome of
direct official advices reaching the
state and navy departments as to the
rrogress of Admiral Camera's squad
ron. These advice give a list of the
Spanish ships now nearing the Suck
canal, which differs somewhat from th"
list Riven In the press dispatches and
by Lloyds. The official list Is as fol
lows: Pelayo, Carlos V. Audax. Osaila.

This squadron Is the most formidable

strongest of the ships, and Is the only
battleship In the Spanish navy. She is
9.900 tons, with a speed of 16.7 knots.
She carries 35 guns of various caliber,
and has seven torpedo tubes. The
Carlos V has 18 guns and six torpedo

WAI NEWS OP THE WEEK.
rae Laatllag of GssMuml haiter's
BMHUtloa Near Saatlaa-e. '
Washington, June ft. On Tuesday of
last week . came further newa of
General Shatter's arrival off Santiago
with his Invading army. General Shat
ter and Admiral Sampson went ashore
and visited the camp of Callxto Garcia,
the Insurgent general, being most
heartily welcomed. Plans for a com
bination of forces were discussed, and
General Garcia assured the American
that the soldiers need have no fear of
contracting disease. General Shaf ter
waa greatly Impressed with the hardy
and soldiery appearance of Garcla'k
men, and had them supplied with pro
visions and clothing. In a. speech at
the Ohio Republican convhitlon Gen
eral Grosvenor, the administration
trader In congress, declared that "never
by order of McKlnley's administration
will our flag he pulled down from any
flagstaff where conquest of arms has
placed It"
On Wednesday Admiral Sampson
and General Phafter established direct
telegraphic communication with Wash
ington, having removed the cable sta
tion from Camp McCalla. to Plsya d:
Este to he nearer the landing place of
the Invading army. As the government
controls the cable but little news Is
allowed to slip through. Both the gea.
eral and the admiral cabled that tin
landing of the army was proceed '.nc
satisfactorily, with no resistance from
the Spaniards. ' Our war vessels shelled
the vicinity before the landing. A dis
patch from Havana states thnt C.-ip-tain
General Blunco has not declil !
against the exchange of Hobson und
the other Merrlmac heroes, but he
not consider such .a proposition i
present, owing to the knowledge th--,
men have acquired of Cuba's defense.
Mothers of this section who have t. y.
with General Lee's troops In Ca-.i
Cuba Libre, at Jacksonville, are otTl'
clally Informed that the health of i!r
camp Is excellent, there being Im; I
per cent In the hospital, and t'..rre ar
no hardships.
On Thursduy came the news cf tJ
landing of General Phafter's full fma
at Balqulrt, 12 miles from Fantla;;.-,
which was accomplished without t'.i
kiss of a man and with little or no re
sistance on the part of the Spaniards,
the landing being protected by our
warships. Two hundred Americano
and 50 Cubans had a skirmish Inland
with 450 Spaniards. The enemy's flltiht
was shameful. Sixty Spaniards were
killed and 18 wounded, besides 16 l inif
captured, including one officer. Th;
Cuban-American loss was two killed
and three wounded. President Mc
Klnley's nephews, J. D. Barber und J.
F. McKlnley, have entered the army
as privates In an Ohio regiment. Ef
forts were made to have them niuilu
second lieutenants, but the preFlnVnt
declined to use his authority In placing
relatives above trained soldiers. An
other expedition, 1,600 men. left New
port News on the cruiser Yale to Join
Bhafter's army. All non-combatants
who have been captured on Spanbh
vessels durlag the war are to be turn
ed over to the French and German am
bassadors, who will send them to
Spain. Arrangements have been per
fected for promptly forwarding mail
to our soldiers In Cuba.
On Friday there was some desperate
fighting within five miles of Pantlac;...
resulting In victory for our troops,
though 18 of our men were killed ai: I
60 wounded or missing. Tho Spanish
loss was much heavier. Roosevelt'.
rough riders played a brilliant part In
the fight, and left half a doasen of thslr
number dead on the Held. Among the
killed In that regiment was Sergeant
Hamilton Fish. Jr., a grandson of the
late Hamilton Fish, who was secretary
of state In Grant's cabinet. Secretary
Long wrote a letter of thanks to Naval
Lieutenant Victor Blue, who ut great
risk exemlned Hantiavo harbor and
located Cervera's fleet. It was un
nounucd that If Admiral Camara's
Spanish fleet should enter the Sues
canal, en route for Manila, a number
of our warships would at once cross
the Atlantic and bombard Spain's prin
cipal ports. The Spanish cortes dis
solved without the customary cheers
for the throne.
On Saturday It was announced that
the capture of Havana will be made by
at least 75.000 troops. The movement
will be in the nature of a peaceful
siege, which will end In the fall of the
citadel. There Is still one cable con
necting Cuba with the outside world.
Senor Castelar, the great Spanish re
publican leader, Is quoted as saying
that Santiago's fall will mean Spain's
collapse. Three or four hundred of 1 .ie
soldiers encamped at Mobile are in the
guard houses for riotous conduct. Offi
cials at Washington highly praise the
bravery of the Americans In attacking
a superior force of Spaniards, am
bushed In the thickets near Santiago.
Sunday's dispatches gave fuller de
tails of the fight near Santiago, and
In Washington the department officials
were busy perfecting plans to hasten
reinforcements to General Shafter.
Three thousand more troops left Fort
Monroe, and may arrive on Wednes
day. The 1,300 which left last week
ore undoubtedly there now. Fifteen
regiments at Chlckamauga, Including
the Fourth and Sixteenth Pennsylva
nia, are under orders to prepare for
actual service, and It Is believed they
are to be sent to Cuba. Regarding the
threat of our government to attack
Spain's coast a Spanish official sai'l:
"Let them come: we will receive the-.r.
as they deserve."
