In Preparing for the
Regulars.

WASHINGTON, June 8.-There is no
longer any attempt made to conceal
the fact that American troops have
been landed near Santiago. The evil
dence is too conclusive. Officials OF
the war department.. however, are al
close mouthed as ever with reference
to details, and, while it is admitted
that troops are on Cuban soil and in
the vicinity of Santiago at that, moth
ing official can be ascertained as to
numbers already there and those who
are to follow. 1t is said that the heavy
siege guns, recently loaded on trans.
ports at Southern ports,
Are Now on Cuban Soil
and will be brought to bear upon the
enemy when the next general attack
upon Santiago 10 made. With the fleets
of Admiral Sampson and Commodore
Schley pounding away in front and the
Americans and insurgents assaulting
the garrison of Santiago city from all
sides, Surrender is believed to be the
only recourse left the Spaniards there.
The fact that the military commander
at Santiago city admits the loss OF
number of officers and men in the
Gland engagement" is conclusive
enough evidence that the soldiers OF
the American army are not only ashore
but are doing business with the Span
iards.

Indications That = Landing Has Been
Made Near Santiago.
WASHINGTON, June S.-Dispatches
received by the Associated Press from
Spanish sources indicate that landing
Of troops was effected near Santiago
either during or Immediately after the
bombardment Monday. This is re-
garded by naval authorities as entirely
reasonable. 1t is deemed likely that
Sampson landed q sufficient force OF

gained and to make preparations for the
landing of the regular force upon their
arrival ii, indeed. some Of them are not

TELL OF THE MANILA FIGHT
Four American Participant:
Arrive at San Francisco.
SAY sPANIARDs FOUGHT BRAVELY
Showed Plenty Of Valor and Dstsrmina'
tiou But Their Work at the
Guns Was Very Bad.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 8.-Among the
passengers who arrived on the Belgic
during the day from Hong Kong were
four men who participated in the fight
of Manila bay on May l. They are
Paymaster G. A. Loudof the dispatch
boat MoCulloch, DR.. Charles P. Kindle'
berg, surgeon of the Olympia; Ralph
Phelps, secretary to the captain OF the
McCulloch. and J. @. Evans, gunner OF
the Boston. They left Manila on May
5. DR.. Kindleberg and Gunner Evans
are going home on account Of the OK
piration of their sea time. Paymastel
Loud and Mr.. Phelps are here on bust
ness and will return to the Nice ulloch
They all speak Of the valor and deter
mination Of their opponents in the
battle of Manila. They say that the
Spaniards fought bravely, even aftel
the last vestige of hope had gone. and
stayed by their guns as long as they
could be used.
Graphic Description Of the Fight.
DR.. Kindleberger gives graphic &C
count of the terrific fight. He was on
the Olympia through it all. In the
first assault the flagship took the lead,
the other vessels following in her wake
at four ship lengths. During the first
fight the Spanish admiral's ship rut
bravely out Of the line to meet the
Olympia. The American feet concen'
trated fire on her and she was so badly
injured that she turned around to put
back. At this juncture the Olympia
let fly an 8.inch shell which struck hel
stern and pierced through almost hel
entire lenght exploding finally in the
engine room, wrecking her machinery
This shell killed the captain and 60
men and set the vessel on fire. In the
heat of the fight two torpedo boats
Moved Out to Attack the Fleet.
They were allowed to come within SOC
yards when fusilade from the Olym'
pia sent one to the bottom with all on
board and riddled the other. The Sec
ond boat was later found turned up on
the beach, covered with blood.
In the second fight the Baltimore was
sent to silence the fort at Cavite. She
plunged into q cloud of smoke and
opened all her batteries on the fortified.
lions. In a very few minutes shell
struck in the ammunition and the for,
blew up with deafening roar.
The work of Che Baltimore was glori'
GUS. After the principal ships had
been destroyed, the Concord, Raleigh
and Petrol, being of light draft, were
sent close in to handle the remaining
vessels Of the feet. They made quick
work Of them.
In taking possession Of the land forts
several hundred wounded Spaniards
fell into the hands Of the Americans
and nearly 800 dead were accounted fol
On the spot.
