BATTLE OF LA oUASINA,
That Is the Name of tho Bloody Fight
Participated In by the Rough Riders

Jaragua, Cuba, June %, 4 p. m., per
Associated Press Dispatch Boat Dan
dy, Via Kingston, June 26.-The initial
light OF Colonel Woods Rough Riders
and the troopers of the First and Tenth
cavalry Will be known In history as
the battle of La Quasina That ii did
not end In the complete slaughter of
the Americans was not due to any
miscalculation In the plan of the Span
ish, for us perfect an ambuscade as
was ever formed In the brain of an
Apache Indian was prepared, and
Lieutenant Colonel Roosevelt and his
men walked squarely into 1t. For an
hour and half they held their ground
under a perfect storm of bullets from
the front and sides, and then Colonel
Wood at the right and Colonel Roose-
welt ut the left. led charge which
turned the tide of battle and sent the
enemy flying over the hills toward
Santiago.
II Is now definitely known that six
teen men on the American side were
killed, while sixty were wounded or
are reported TO be missing. 1t is i'm
possible TO calculate. the Spanish losses,
but II Is known they We're far heavier
than those of the Americans, at least
as regards actual loss of life. Already
thlrty-seven dead Spanards have been
found and buried, while many others
are undoubtedly lying In the thick un-
dcrbrush on the side of the gully and
on the slope OF the hill, where the
main body OF the enemy was located
The wounded were all removed.
There no longer Is any question that
the cavalry forces allowed their en-
thuslnsm TO carry them into the am
bush In which they were caught by
the Spaniards yesterday morning.
Their daring exploit In dashing into
the mountains almost Immediately
after landing. now is said to have been
undertaken without the knowledge of
the commanding general.
All the bodies OF the American dead
were recovered to-day and all the
Rough Riders who fell In action. ex-
cept Captain Capron. Were buried with
military honors at Camp Wheeler. The
dead heroes We're wrapped In blankets
and placed In long trench that was
lined with palm leaves, and Chaplain
Brown read the commlttal service.
while the troops knelt around the
grave. Captain Capron's body was
taken Into Juragua. His wife and
mother had asked that II be sent to
them. but that was impossible.
II was laid nj rest on the side of n
hill that ovcrlooks the bay. A volley
was fired above the grave and the
cavalry bugles sounded taps" The
wounded were tcndcrly cared for by
the hospital corps. and now are In
good hands on board the Olivette.
They may be taken TO the marine
hospital at Tortugns.

Mllcs L.Il.es Iunurn.

Some OF the military attaches Of the
foreign legations at Tampa have been
making fun OF General Miles. They
have written letters to friends IN
Washington. complaining that while
at Tampa he appeared In evening
dress at dinner at the Tampa Bay bo-
tel every night: that he wore n straw
hat with his Tuxedo: that he sat on
the piazza after dinner, smoked n ci-
gar and listened TO the music as II he
We're trying To enjoy himself; that ne
was accompanied by his wife, daugll-
ter and little son: tha, he had special
train awaiting his convenience and n
private ear In which there was n por-
celaln bath tub and kltchcn-nll OF
which they criilclsc ns unsoldlerly
luxury. But General Miles will prob
ably continue To make himself com
Portable regardless OF their criticisms.
There IN no doubt thnt he Is fond of
the good things OF life and makes ns
much ds possible OF his facilities. but
this has never affected his efficiency as
n soldier.

Hawaii. Answer to Spain.

On June LIST the Spanish consul nt
Honolulu sent to the Hawaiian gov
ernment protest against the aid fur
nished the United States, to which the
Hawaiian minister of foreign AFFAIRS
sent the following reply:
"Sir:-In reply to your note Of the
LIST instant l have the honor to say
that, owing to the intimate relations
now existing between this country and
the United States, this government has
not proclaimed proclamation of neu-
trallty, having reference to the pres
ent conflict between the United States
and Spain; but on the contrary has
rendered to the United States privi-
leges and assistance, for which reason
your protest can receive no further
consideration than to acknowledge It's
receipt. l have the honor to be, sir,

miliarity with the class of wares he
