NO DANGER FROM CADIZ. It is authoritively announced that Admiral Camara's fleet at Cadiz has been found wholly unfit for service. BATTLED FOR THIRTEEN HOURS. Special to Kvknino Herald. Molo" St. Nicholas, Hnytl, June 13. A dispatch bout from tho ileet off Guantauiimo brings tho following ad vices: Lieutenant Colonel H. W. Hunt Ingtun's battalion of marines, which lauded from tho transports Panther on Friday and oncampcl on tho hill guard ing tho abandoned cablo station at the ontrance to the outer harbor of Guan- tanamo, lias been engaged In beating oft u bush attack by Spanish guerillas and regulars since 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon. Tho fight was almost con tinuous for 13 hours, until G o'clock yesterday morning, when reinforce ments were landed from tho Marble head. Four of our men wore killed and 0110 wounded. The advance pick ets under Lieutenant Noville and Shaw are unaccounted for. Among tho killed Is Assistant Sur geon John lllalr Oibbs, son of Major Glbbs, of tho regular army, who fell In tho Custer massacre. Ills homo was at Hlchmoud, Va., but ho has been practicing In New York, and he en tered tho scrvlco since the war began. He was a very popular officer. Tho others killed are Sergeant Charles H. Smith, of Smallwood; Prlvato William Dunphy, of Gloucester, Mass., and Pri vate James McColgan, of Stoncham, Mass. Corporal Glass was accidental ly wounded In the head. The Spanish loss Is unknown, but It was probably considerable. Tho splashes of blood found at daylight at tho positions tho Spaniards occupied lndlcato fatnlltles, but their comrades carried off tho killed and wounded. The engagement began with desul tory firing nt tho pickets athousand yards Inland from tho camp. Captain Splcer's company was doing guard duty, but were driven In, finally rally ing on tho camp and repulsing tho en emy at 5 o'clock. Tho bodies of Privates McColgan and Dunphy were found, both shot In tho head. Tho largo cavities caused by tho bullets, which lnstdo a range of 500 yards have a rotary motion, Indi cate that tho victims wore killed ut close range. Tho bodies woro stripped of shoes, hats and cartridgo bolts, and horribly mutilated with machetos. When they woro brought lit tho wholo battalion formed threo sides of a hol low smiaro about tho camp on tho hill top. Dolow In tho bay woro tho warships nt anchor. Inland from tho hill camp Is a deep rnvino, and beyond this aro high hills. Tho adjacent country is heavy with thicket growth. Tho sky was blunkotod with clouds, nnd when tho sun set a gale was blowing sea ward. Night fell, thick and impene trable. Tho Spanish squads concealed In tho chopparul cqvor had tho ad vantage, tho Americans on tho rldgo furnishing lino targets ngnlnst tho sky and tho white tents. Tho Span lards fought from cover till midnight, discoverable only by Hashes, at which tho marines flred volleys. Tho Mnrblehoad launch, Colt ma chine gun In her bow, pushed up tho bay, enfilading tho Spaniards, and It Is thought that somo woro killed, Tho marines trailed much blood to the water's edge, und thoro lost It. Sharks are numerous In tho vicinity. Tim kIiIim throw their senrrhlluhts ashore, the powerful electric eyes swooping tho loop tropic foliage and disclosing occasionally skulking par ties of Spaniards. Each discovery of tho enemy was greeted by the cracks of carbine lire along tho edge of the camp rldgo or by tho long roll of tho launch's mnchlno gun. Shortly after midnight came the main attack. Tho Spaniards made a gallant charge up tho southwest slope, but were met by repeated volleys from the main body, and broke beforo thoy were one-third of tho way up tho hill, but they came so close that at points thcro was almost n hand to hand struggle. The olllcers used their re volvers. Three Spaniards got through the open formation to the edgo of the camp. Colonel Jose Camplna, tho Cuban guide, discharged his revolver, and they, turning and finding thom solves without support, ran bolter skelter down tho roverso side of tho hill. It was during tills assault thai Assistant Surgeon Glbbs was killed. He was shot In tho head in front of his own tent, the farthest point of attack. Ho lived ten minutes, but did not ro- galn consciousness. Tho surgeons of the hospital corps then removed their quarters to tho tienchcs about tho old Spanish stock ade, north of tho camp. Tho attacks were continued at Intervals through put tho rest of tho night, with firing from small sruads In various direc tions, Toward morning tho flro slackened, Pawn Is tho favorite time for attack, and as tho east paled tho marines lying on their guns were aroused. Somo woro actually asleep, as thoy had had no rest for 48 hours and tired nn ture could no longor stand tho strain, Ilut not attack camo. Threo now 12 pound flold guns, which could not bo used during tho night, for fear of hitting our own men, shelled soveral squads of Spaniards after day light. Thoy dovo Into the bushos Ilka pralrlo dogs Into burrows as tho shells broke over them In tho gray dawn. Lieutenant Colonel Huntington and Major Cockrell gavo high praiso to tha nervo and steadiness of olllcers and men, especially tho young ones, ns the engagement was a baptism of flro for a largo majority. Tho rnon woro In darkness and in a strnngo land, but thoy stood to their posts with courogo and fortitude, and thcro was no syinp torn of panic. Tho marines, though exhausted, were eager for inoro fighting, promts' ing to lnlllct heavy punishment. Thoy complimented tho daring of tho Span lards with characteristic camp pro fanlty. Tho amplest precautions have boon taken, and as tho dispatch boat was leaving rolnforcoments woro landing from the Marblehead. A stormy time was expected. Estimates vary as to the attacking force. Somo say 200, und tho figures run as high as 1,000. Colouol Cam plna, tho Cuban guide, said tho Span lavds wero mostly Irregulars, but tho reports of tho discharge of Mauser rifles would Indlcnte that they woro regulars, as most of the guorlllas car ry llomlngtons. Tho Spanish guerillas, as a rulo, liavo more dash and cuuruga than tho regulars. SAN FRANCISCO RAN ASHORE. Special toKvnNiNo IIkiiai.d. New York, Juno 13.

An Incident incurred yesterday at Lyt tle, the tuinii Hlutinn, tbut will prob ably terminate In tlir- existence of the illli lt whisky Hliops und trembling dens which ii in this time have been per mitted tti ply their biiKhiesB by the Georgia authorities wltbnut let or hindrance. A private or the Twenty first Kansas who hud been drinking at the whisky dive of one Joe Iluljy be came Involved In a didlculty with the barkeeper. Blows followed, and Uaker drew a revolver, firing point blank at the soldier, the bullet, It was claimed by the soldier, strlklnc hlin above Hip eye, Indicting a wound which may cause the loss of an eye. The fight attracted the attention of the throngs on the streets of the mush room town, and soon a crowd of sol diers rushed In. 13aker, fearing trouble, had gotten out of the way. A large body of soldiers formed with the pur pose of handling him severely and avenging the Injury to their comrade, and for a while It looked as If there would be serious trouble. An armed guard, however, was quickly detailed by order of General Brooke, who took charge of Baker and his place, and order was soon restored. The soldier was taken to the division hospital, where the surgeon Investigated his In juries. He found a wound as indi cated, but thought the Injury had been caused by a bit of broken glass and not by a bullet, as a splinter of glass was found sticking In the eyebHll. After the shooting a number of sol diers dlseoveied the gambling den was running a brace game, and that the dtlllculty between the soldier and Baker had resulted from the fact thnt the lat ter had been playing the former with loaded dice. It took the soldiers only a few minutes to demolish the place. They broke up the furniture, scatteied tho gambling paraphernalia In the street and were only deterred from pulling down the house by the arrival of olllcers. It Is stated that a number of good citizens In the vicinity will, because of the fuilure of the Georgia olllcers to enforce the law, petition that the por tion of Walker county In the vicinity of the park be put under martini law, so that General Brooke can administer the law on the lawless element now doing a thriving busines there.
