OFF THE UNITED STATES CAMP,
Guantanamo. Sunday. June r. noon, via
Kingston, Jamaica, June 49, 1870 a. m.-
When the Associated Press dispatch boat
Dauntless left Guantanamo bay early this
morning, after the thirteen hours skirmish'
between the United States marines, under
Lieutenant Colonel r. w. Huntington, and
the Spanish guerrilas and regulars, it was
expected that the fighting would be re-
newed The Marblehead was landing rein
forcements, and nothing had been heard
from the advance pickets under Lieutenant
Wendell C. Neville and Lieutenant Melville
j. Shaw.
At o'clock the firing again renewed
by the Spanards, who appeared off the
camp on the edge of a small island, about
a mile to the northwest. 1t was promptly
returned by thirteen rifles and three-inch
field gun, and in a short time all signs of
the enemy had disappeared. Colonel Hunt
ington then sent to the landing for second
three-inch gun, which was dragged up the
hill and placed in position at the summit.
The skrimish lines thrown around the camp
kept up popping all the morning. but with
not much result to show for it. Meanwhile
the Marblehead left the harbor and threw a
few shells into the woods
TO the great delight of the marines in
camp, Lieutenants Neville and Shaw with
shape, but much exhausted by eighteen
hours of picket duty. One man, Sergeant
Smith, of Company K, had been shot
through the abdomen and instantly killed.
For most of the day and night Lieutenants
Neville and Shaw had been surrounded by
a much superior force, but men and Off
GERS behaved splendidly. and. although the
firing of the Spaniards was constant and
heavy, Lieutenant Nevilles detachment
held it's own, infiicting much more damage
than it sustained
At least five Spaniards are known to have
been killed, and as Lieutenant Nevilles
men kept up a steady fire throughout the
night and the enemy was not at a great
distance, it is believed that the Spanish cas-
ualties were heavy.
The Battle ship Texas arrived this morn
ing and sent ashore forty marines and two
automatic Colt guns as reinforcements. The
Marblehead also sent an additional small
detachment.
Private Bartholomew MCGOWAN, of Com
pany d, will lose his hand, which was shat
tered by bullet Amputation will be neces-
sary. The Marblehead's pilot. who was
shot through the leg while guiding the
cruiser out of the harbor this morning,
holds the rank of colonel in the Cuban
service.

THE CADIZ FLEET.
1t Is Puxzling Naval Officers as Much
as CerYern's Armada Did.

WASHINGTON, June 13.-The Spanish
Cadiz fleet is almost as much of a mystery
to the naval officers here as was Admiral
Cervera's flying squadron during the two
weeks Immediately preceding its ingIorious
bottling up at Santiago. To-day a report
came that the squadron was unfit for sea-
That would have been credited, except
that the department has had information
as late as Saturday to the effect that the
squadron was already at sea and was
about to depart. About week before that
it had been told that the Cadiz fleet had
sailed. Having in mind these conflicting
reports, the war board scarcely knows
where to give credence, though it would
seem to be an extraordinary circumstance
that the least doubt could exist as to the
presence in or absence from the harbor of
a populous city, such Cadiz of a whole
squadron of war ships. However, the
weight of opinion seems to incline to the
presence of the feet at Cadiz, owing to the
bad condition of the ships. 1t may be noted
however, that. although acting on this be-
lief, as shown by the beginning of the
military invasion of Cuba, the war board is
taking no unnecessary chances of a sur
prise, and by means of scouts has provided
for securing timely warning of the approach
of any hostile fleet to the seat of war.

The Ambassador Has Not Received
News that Manila Has Fallen.

News that Manila Has Fallen.
LONDON, June 13.-Ambassador Hays
attention was called this morning to a re-
port that he had received information from
Hong-Kong that Manila had surrendered
He stated that the story was unfounded
Secretary Briggs. of the Manila Railway
Company, who is in constant cOmmunica-
ton with Manila discredits the rumors in
circulation as to the surrender of that
place. He received cable message from
Manila yesterday via Hong-Kong, reporting
that the road was working, and no mention
was made of the city having surrendered.
Mr.. Briggs believes the Spaniards would
surrender to Rear Admiral Dewey in prefer
ence to be conquered by the insurgents. The
secretary is informed that a full under
standing exists between Admiral Dewey
and the insurgents, and it is generally be-
lieved at Hong-Kong and Manila that be-
fore Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader, con-
sented to return to Manila he secured
pledges that the United States would not
leave him in the lurch by returning the
Philippine islands to the Spaniards. Re-
ferring to the Spanish tales of alleged
insurgent atrocities, Mr.. Briggs says they
are utter nonsense. He adds that the ma
tives of the Philippine islands are the mild
est people in the world, and asserts that
all the Europeans were surprised that they
mustered up courage enough to revolt.

The Second Expedition.

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Arrangements
for the second expedition of invasion from
the United States for the West Indies are
being hurried at the War Department
There seems to be no doubt that this ex-
pedition, If its number approaches the first,
Will be sent from the east coast of the
United States. The experience in embark
ing the first from Tampa has demonstrated
to the War Department officials that other
ports where the railroad and other facilities
are more adequate than at Tampa are much
more desirable places for the concentration
of troops and their embarkation. The off,
GERS at Tampa have recommended that fu-
ture expeditions approaching any magnitude
be dispatched from some other city. A
board of army officers for the past week
has been examining various places in the
South with a view to their occupation for
camping purposes and it is also suggested
that it may take occasion to point out a de-
sirable port for the embarkation of the
Porto Rico expedition. This board will ar
rive here tomorrow morning and will hur-
riedly prepare it's report for the considera-
ton of the President.
Fernandina and Savannah are looked upon
with favor by the War Department officials
as suitable ports for the departure of the
invading army, and Charleston also has
been suggested. Five transports are now
at Fernandina, viz, the Comanche Knicker-
booker, Louisiana, the Gate City and the
City of Macon. The Catania and the Area
dia were at New York two days ago. and
the Lampasas and the Neuces, of the Mall
lory line, whose charters have been about
closed by Assistant Secretary Meikeljohn,
are at New York. Already therefore. the
department is very we'll equipped with
transports for the second invading army.

No More Regiments for Merritt.

NEW YORK, June 13-It may be stated
with positiveness that the War Department
has no present intention of sending any
more troops to San Francisco for the Phil
ippines expedition than have already been
ordered there, says the Washington corre-
spondent of the Times. General Merritt
announced before he left New York that
he wanted at least 5000 men to take Ma
Mia, and that he intended tc have that
number 1t was generally accepted here
that General Merritt won his point and that
the department promised the men he asked
for. 1t is stated that instead of the
5000 men he has been counting on, only
5000 have been assembled at San Francis
co, and that the future Governor General
of the Philippines is getting uneasy about
the other 1900.
Adjutant General Corbin has several
times recently, in response to direct in
quiries, stated that it was not intended to
send any more troops to the Philippines
than those already selected for that work.
He was asked the same question to-day in
view of San Francisco reports about Gen.
Merritt's insisting more men, and he an
swered again that there were no intentions
of ordering any more additional regiments
to Manila at this time If the assertion tel
egraphed from San Francisco is correct,
that $4,000 troops are already massed there,
counting those who have gone to Manila,
it is estimated that the recruiting of these
regiments to their maximum strength, as
is being done under the second volunteer
call, will eventually raise the strength of
the force to very nearly 10000. 1t is thought
to be probable that the War Department is
depending on this means to fill it out, as
the recruits can be sent on after the trans
ports have left with the regiments to which
they belong.

WHERE WE'RE THE INSURGENTS.
They Do Not Appear to Have Cooper
ated with the Blue Jackets.

WASHINGTON, June 13-The news of
the attack by the Spaniards on the United
States marines at Guantanamo bay Satur-
day night was not confirmed by official ad-
vices up to the close of the day here. How
ever, there is no disposition to question the
accuracy of the press report, and the news
has had a rather SOLDERING effect on the ele-
ment that has insisted on rushing troops
forward regardless of their unpreparedness
Saturday nights action shows that the
Spanish are not afraid to charge boldly
upon United States troops, and the pros
poets of bushwhacking warfare disclosed
by the Spanish movements are anything but
agreeable to the persons who have been
hoping for short campaign. A good deal
of surprise is expressed at the failure of
that report to mention any substantial aid
received from the insurgents by the United
States marines camped on the crest of the
hill. Reinforcements were sent from our
own ships, but it does not appear in the
reports that the marines had help from the
men best calculated from their experience
in jungle lighting to be of service in an en-
counter with Spanish guerrillas. Without
any disparagement of the fighting ability of
the marines who appear TO have acquitted
themselves with the greatest credit so far
as concerns their bravery and steadiness un-
der fire. the question has been raised in the
minds Of the military experts whether fail
ing in any substantial assistance from the
Cubans, who were reported TO have been so
numerous in the vicinity, Western soldiers
trained in Indian fighting would not be of
more service In Cuban jungle campaign.
Nothing so severely taxes the courage and
endurance of troops as TO be shot at from
cover by an unseen foe. and only troops
trained in our latest skirmish drill can rem
der effective service in such attacks
The position of the marines is not en-
tirely satisfactory to the officials. 1t cam
not be said that the attack caused surprise
here, but it was plain to be seen that ii in
dicated to the officials some ugly possibili-
ties for the future 1t is apparent, for one
thing. that regular organizations of troops,
ighting according to established methods.
are destined 10 meet with severe loss at the
