Wednesday. June Is.
The first heavy fighting at close quarters
between the American marines and the Span
iards took place at Guantanamo June IA. As
usual. American pluck and discipline won.
The little invading force showed splendid
courage and spirit and was victorious in sew
eral engagements. without losing a man. Six
~ dead Spaniards were left on the field at
point as the result of brilliant attack,
including a bayonet charge, led by Captain
Elliott. Three expeditions were sent out from
the fort this morning. The main body cross
ed the ridge two miles from camp under Cap
tain Elliott with eighty Cubans. About noon
a party heard firing in that direction and at
tempted to make junction, but found the
Standards in the path taken by Elliott. We
fell back Lieutenant Mahoney's outpost
and learned from his men that Elliotts force
had actually charged the Spaniards with bay
onets fixed. This would only be possible on
the other side Of the hill, where the ground
is clear. Cheers came from the Dolphin's
crew while Smelling the enemy from the sea
around the point of the harbor. BY clever
maneuvering Elliott had got large body OF
Spaniards hemmed IN and was inhicung ter
rible punishment Elliott's force was oper-
ating from the north and Mahoneys from
the west while the Dolphin firing with
excellent effect from the sea at a range OF
about LOCO yards. The Spanish were on the
crest of a mountain, having been driven
from one point TO another by the advancing
Americans. The marines were so placed that
theS almost surrounded the Spaniards, VINO
were surprised and bewildered. Every few
minutes a shell would strike right in the
midst OF the panic-stricken Spaniards, kill
ing and manning. All the fight soon
taken out Of them by the furious onslaught
OF the Americans. Once when they showed
a bold front for a moment Elliott's men
charged bayonets and completely routed them
When the Spaniards saw their comrades fall
ing by dozens under the attack of the land
force and the shells from the Dolphin they
gave up the fight and fed over the hills and
into the brush, leaving about 100 Mauser
rifles and several thousand rounds of am
