Spanish Regiments Engage in
Battle, Each Surprising the
Other Rebels.
Seventeen Soldiers Killed and
Nearly a Hundred Wound
ed, Some Fatally.
Occurring at Midday, the EX-
PLANTATION Appears Rather
Unsatisfactory.

HAVANA, March 25.-Another terri
BILE mistake, attended with loss of life
and resulting in many soldiers being
wounded, has taken place. In some
manner, unexplained, two columns Of
Spanish troops opened fire upon each
other at midday.
According to the few details received
here the columns of troops commanded
by General Godoy and Colonel Hol-
gum, at the Santa Rosa plantation,
near Esperanto, provice of Santa
Clara, mutually mistook each other for
insurgent forces, owing, it IS said, to
the thickness of the sugar cane.
Killed Seventeen and Wounded Many.
Each detachment opened fire upon
the other, and for 10 minutes shots
were exchanged, resulting in the killing
of II soldiers, among them being Lieu
tenant Colonel Fuenmayer of the Navas
battalion. In addition, officers and
"a soldiers were wounded Two of the
latter have since died, 6 others are
mortally wounded, and 81 are seriously
injured
Lieutenant Colonel Fuenmayer died
while leading his troops on and shout
ing Long live Spain"
Owing to the fact that the meeting
between the two columns took place at
midday, the explanation furnished by
the Spanish commander is considered
unsatisfactory and courtmartial will
follow

MILWAUKEE, March 20. = William
Dudzen, known in the Cuban army as
Lieutenant DeIbelo, who has just re-
turned to this country from Cuba
where has been fighting for the island
independence, spent a few hours in
this city and then left for St. Paul,
where he is going to visit friends.
From ST. Paul he will proceed direct
to New York to consult the Cuban
junta, which has charge of the affairs
of the revolutionists in this country
Lieutenant Dudzen is suffering from g
bad wound he sustained in charging
the Spaniards near Havana several
weeks ago and as soon as his injuries
have healed, he will again, proceed to
join the insurgents under the command
of General Gomez. Dudzen is {
wealthy American about SO years of
age and formerly lived in Cincinnati.
He has travelled extensively in the
South and speaks Spanish fuently In
an interview here he said:
Resolutions Did No Good.
LAS far as Cuba is concerned, con-
gress has done it little good by adopt
ing resolutions. Of course, it caused
great rejoicing among the insurgents,
but it made Spain more bitter toward
the revolutionists. In Havana Ameri-
cans are most bitterly denounced, and
the Spaniards are now more determined
than ever to crush the insurgents. Had
congress sent fleet to Havana and then
passed resolutions, why, it would have
helped Cuba; but as it was it has
harmed the cause But the Cubans
have not been conquered and never will
be until the last one is cut down. They
will fight until they have been exter-
minated, because were they to surren-
der in this engagement they would be
slaves forever. They are being rein
forced in large numbers and are attack
ing the Spaniards wherever the oppor-
tunity offers. On several occasions lust
before l left Cuba, an attack was made
on the Spanish forces and the latter
was beaten with heavy losses

BATTEY BUCK HOUND OVER.
shinaII's Son swears Buck Fired the
First Shot


Augusta, Ca, Oct. 5.-The story of the
deadly duel on Sept. II, when William
Shinall returned home unexpectedly and
surprised his clerk, Battey Buck, in the
bedroom of his wife, will be remembered
by readers of the Morning News. In the
dimly lighted bedroom the two men emp
tied their pistols into each other in the
presence of the terrified wife Shinan
died in a few minutes from the wounds
he received, but Buck made his way to
his home. though shot three times. He
has since recovered from his wounds,
and was arraigned to-day before Magis-
trate Leon for preliminary hearing.
Ten witnesses were sworn, but the eff
feet of their testimony was simply to
prove that Battey Buck fired the shots
resulting in Shinalrs death. Two wit
nesses swore that Shinall said before he
died that Buck had killed him.
Willie Shlnall. Jr., years old, swore
that he was in the room with his mother
and saw Buck shoot his father He
swore that Buck fired first, and that
during the shooting his mother grabbed
him up and ran out of the room.
The boy cried when he told of the killing
Of his father, and Buck was visibly af-
tected.
An effort was made to show that Will
lies grandfather had instructed him
what to say, but he claimed that his
grandfather had promised to give him ten
cents if he would go there and tell the
truth.
Magistrate Leon bound Buck over to
the October superior court. on a charge
of manslaughter, and fixed the bond at
$500, which has not yet been given.
Buck is a boy of It. and rather pre-
possessing in appearance. A swollen place
under his chin is the only visible effect of
the dreadful close range duel, in which he
engaged a few weeks ago.

been received at headquarters in order

day:

executive committee met at Springfield
to-day, upon a call by Chairman w. L.

of the county for two years" Zittrouer
was born and reared in Effingham coun-
ty, but moved to Bryan county several
years ago, and remained there four years,
paid taxes and voted in that county. He
returned to this county about a year ago
This fact was not disclosed till Saturday,
therefore the committee met to substitute
candidate for sheriff on the democratic
ticket.
w W Griffin, who received the next
highest vote at the time of the nomina-
ton, and who was only eighteen votes
below Mr.. Zitttrouer, was unanimously
nominated and placed upon the ticket in
his place. Mr.. Griffin has filed the office
OF sheriff of Efingham and made a good
officer. He comes into the race just two
days before the election, but the demo-
Gratis are satisfied he will be elected along
