great for,itude he held his position and re-
PEELED the repeated charges OF the insur-
gents.
1t became necessary for a portion OF tho

communicate with the base OF supplies and
obtain relnforcements. Maj. Garrido. at the
head OF 30 men who volunteered for the Mt
tempt, made a brilliant dash into the insur-
gents lines and forced his way through
the circle Of fire which surrounded the posi-
tion.
shortly after the volunteers had pierced
the insurgent lines another detachment OF
spanish troops under the command OF Capt
Bruzon made an opportune flank attack
upon the rebels. The latter were taken by
surprise and thrown into confusion. The
two bodies o: troops then united and make a
combined attack upon the rebels, who were
compelled to retire with the loss OF 40 dead
and many wounded.

treated toward Sierra Canasta- -Chaparra.
