Havana. March iS-An untoward
military accident that occurred Satur-
day night, growing out Of a misunder-
standing of the reply ~ challenge,
resulted in the killing OF l. soldier,
and the wounding Of a number of
others.
A small band Of insurgents had set
fire to the cane and buildings on n
sugar estate near Mariana, province Of
Havana. The smoke attracted the at
tention Of two columns Of Spanish
TROOPS who were advancing in search
OF the rebels. The column which frst
arrived on the estate intrenched them
selves a precaution against any sud-
den attack from the insurgents. who
were supposed 10 be near
The second column, consisting Of the
sun Quintin battalion. arrived ON tho
scene after dark As they approached
the entrenchment Of the first column
they were hailed by the usual 'AIerta'
from a picket. and responded by cali
ing out the name of their battalion
san Quintin- The picket. confused by
the sudden approach of the column,
misunderstood the reply, taking il,
from the similarity Of the sound. to be
Quintin Bandara, the name OF one of
the rebel leaders. He at once CON
cluded that the insurgents were nov
ing To attack the column to which he
belonged, and without further pariey
discharged his piece and fell back to
the intren chments, where the report
of his rifle had caused all the troops to
seize their guns and prepare To repel
an attack
The second column had in the mean-
time continued - advance, supposing
that they had come upon the rebels for
whom they were looking. They had
not rune far before the. first column
poured a vulley into their ranks. Tho
second column. returned the fire and
then. in response to an order. fixed
bayouets and rushed forward u take
the intrenchmrnts by storm. As they
went over the intrenchments the first
column poured another voIley into
them. When the troops came into
CLOSE quarters. il was discovered from
the uniforms and flags. that fatal
blundcr had been made.
IL is reported that the losses on both
sides in killed and wounded, was over
thirty, but there is a strong sns picion
that they were much larger
All ths. circumstances tended To the
making Of the mistake. Besides the
darkness the smoke from the burning
cane ields. prevented the combatants
from recognizing each other. The
mistake IL greatly deplore,i, and.
though 1t is generally held to have
been unavoidable, it is pretty certain
that the officers in command OF the
