WAR RECORD

During the two days fight around
Santiago on the 1st and I'd days OF the
month $50 men and officers were killed,
and 1884 wounded, while 10 are miss
ing.
Our men were over jealous, and
charged the Spanish intrenchments be-
fore the artillery could come up and
clear the way, hence the large loss OF
life
On Sunday, the Sd. inst, the Spanish
fleet attempted toescape from the har-
Dor of Santiago and were met by our
fleet and totally destroyed. All the Span
ish>ships were beached or burned.
Admiral Ceryera cried when made a
prisoner.
Only one of our men was killed dur
ing the fight. 1t was as complete VIC
tory as Dewy gained at Manila. An
account of the battle written by some
body on the Texas appears in another
place
ish fleet through the Suez canal, home
ward bonnd, was confirmed, and a fleet
under command Of Commodore Watson
was being prepared to meet the Spanish
feet, either at the Canaries or off the
coast of Spain.
The return of Hobson to the New
York. Che having been exchanged was
made the occasion of celebration by
the crew of that vessel.
Upon the arrival of reinforcements
for Dewy at Manila, with land forces,
several foreign war ships left the har-
bor
The captured Spanish officers at San
tiago professed ignorance of the de-
struction of their fleet at Manila.
Some of the magazines of the Span
ish vessels exploded and the effect was
to blow up the decks, and not the
keel, as was the case with the Maine.
All the Spanish prisoners, were taken
to Portsmouth, n. Fl. excepting the of
ficers, who were taken to Annapolis.
On Monday, the entire Spanish Min
lstry resigned their offices, and the
Queen appointed new Cabinet.
Gen. Shafter was closing every ave-
nue. of escape from Santiago, and our
artillery bombarded the Spanish lines.
The Spanish spies were forced to
leave Canada.
On Tuesday Toral was yet hesitating
about surrendering, and our feet threw
shells over the hills into the town.
The Beard of Survey reported that
the wrecks Of the ChIistcbal Colon and
Maris Teresa might be saved, and that
al the other Spapish vessels We're total
wrecks
On Wednesday Gen Miles assumed
command of the army at Santiago, and
as fourteen cases of yellow fever have
appeared he ordered an infected village
to be burned A general attack on the
intrenchments about Santiago was ex-
pected today.
In the PHILIPPINES Dewey resented
slight interference by German war
ship, and took possession of Grande is
land in Subic bay.

Hon. JOHN 9. STURTEvANT, member
Of Congress from the Crawford county
district stopped over in Butler for a
-sA~rttfrr Monday last on his return
home after adjournment of Congress
Mr.. Sturtevant is widely known as the
man who defeated the great Joseph G.
Sibley for congress two years ago, in
the Crawford Erie district. His friends
hoped to see him a candidate for re-
election but he declined to run again.
He was very useful and efficient
member and always active in the in
terests of his constituents. The late
Congress looked well after the honor
and interest of the Nation in its present
conflict with Spain.

WASHINGTON.

Congress adjourned last Friday.
There was patriotic demonstration
just before the Speaker Reed announced
adjournment, the members joining in
singing My Country tbs of Thee. A
thousand school teachers in the galleries,
Tin town to attend the Educational Con-
vention) also joined in the singing.
In the Senate there was considerable
opposition to adjourning at this time,
Senator Morgan saying that:
"The very moment, that the treaty of
F~s is signed -hy- the President and the
government of Spain, the military pow
er of the President will cease and the
legislative branch Of the government
must provide a government
for any territory we may acquire by the
war. The power of congress comes
Immediately into effect and we ought
to be here to exercise it. But Congress
had voted President Mckinley ample
power and money to prosecute the war
and the majority favored adjournment
The salary of w. r. Eastman, clerk

FIFTEEN Philadelphians were on the
ili.fated steamer Burgoyne. which was
struck and sunk by sailing vessel,
near Sable island, during fog, a few
days ago The steamer carried 71S
passengers and crew, and of these 553
were drowned The short time that
elapsed between the accident and the
sinking of the ship makes one wonder
as to the utility Of bulkheads. The af-
fair was one Of the most horrible in
maratime history.

This is plaln tale Oh Op2nisn dlsdS
ter, as rendered by Capt. Maocrohon
second captain of the Maria Teresas.
His chief it will be remembered, was
desperately wounded during the fight.
II love my country, said the Span
lard simply, and my hart Dleeds for
her now Our feet, my country's pride
has been DESTROYED / fear that there
will be an uprising at home when its
destruction is made known. Our plan
for escape was well arranged, but bet
ter formulated than executed. We had
arranged to force our way ont on Satur-
day night, and the Maria Texas was to
have led But, contrary to our expec-
nations, the searchlights of your ships
did not illuminate the channel that
night, as had been usual, and without
that light we were unable to discern
the wreck of the Merrimac so we could
not go out You know how we came
ont the next morning Sunday, that
; was. Great crowds were expected to
come down to the wharf to see Us de
part, but the American troops wers
pushing the city two hard in front
and there were none to see us OFT.
Our orders were to steam at full speed
to the westward, after clearing the mar
Dor, and concentrate our attack on the
Brooklyn, paying no attentiod TO any
of the other ships, unless they forced US
to attack them,
