FROM BALLROOM TO BATTLE
CaIix0 Garcia SpOils Dance in
East Cuba,

Havana. Aug. IL. via Key
West, Aug. 12-Gen. Calixo
Garcia has won a great victory
over the Spanish troops at the
town of Santa Cosalia, near Gi
bara, in Santiago de Cuba prov-
ince. The town was surprised
by the insurgent troops while a
big ball was in progress, at which
nearly all the Spanish officers
were in attendance.
In the height of the festivities
the ballroom was fiercely at
tackled on all sides by the insur-
gents, and the Spanish officers
had no time to prepare any plan
of defence. The few other off =
GERS who were in charge of the
garrison and at the outposts had
already surrendered to the as.
sailants. A few soldiers, run
ming from the barracks. arrived
at the ballroom some minutes
before the Cubans and gave the
alarm. The officers rushed to
the doors to escape. but it was
too late. The Cubans appeared
with their machetes in hand and
compelled the officers to huddle
again in the ballroom.
Some of the women tainted and
the others shrieked and sobbed.
A desperate fight began. in
which the Cubans killed one
Captain and two Lieutenants
and thirty Spanish soldiers who
had gathered around the officers
to protect them. In the strug-
gle a bullet struck a woman kills
ing her instantly.
Fourteen Spanish guerrileros
from different parts of the town,
with the intention of assisting
their comrades, entered the house
behind the Cubans, but another
force of insurgents overpowered
them and the fourteen guerileros
were killed.
The Spanish officers surrendered
and were taken prisoners to Gen
Calixo Garcia. The rema;ng part
of the town fell into the hands o1
the Cubans without resistance,
Many Spanish soldiers, availine
themselves OF the carelessness o1
their officers, were found drunk
on the streets and were easily ar
rested by the Cuban forces. The
others, greatly surprised by the
sudden attack, surrendered with.
out resistance in their forts.
