Record from Porto Rico says.
A force of 500 Spanish soldiers made
n desperate attempt to retakc the,
lighthouse on Cape San Juan early
Tuesday morning. They were re-
pulsed by heavy fire from American.
warships and by gallant charge of
sailors fighting on shore. The Spanish
loss in killed and wounded was very
heavy.
After the Americans gained posses
sion of the lighthouse recently II was
gGrrisoncd by forty sailors from the.

commanded by Lieutenant Atwater.
The other officers mt the lighthouse
were Assistant Engineer Jenkins, En-
sign Blonson and Gunner Campbell.
The attack by the Spaniards was
begun shortly after midnight Tuesday
morning. They advanced from Rio
Grande and Lupuillo along the road
leading from the city of San Juan, re-
taking Fnjardo and hauling down the
American flag, which had been flying
over that town for several days Then
the Spanlards moved rapidly along
the coast road toward the right. ON
approaching Cape San Juan light
house they opened on our men with
Nnusers and machine gun. The
American Sailors responded with
steady volleys from their carbines, but
the Spanlards continued TO advance I'm

tending TO carry the Lighthouse BY

Before the Spaniards, however.
could cover the distance. the cruiser
Cincinnati, which lay near shore, was
sweeping the invaded coast with her
searchllghts and had opened on the
enemy with her ilve-inch rapid-iirlng
guns. These quickly stopped the
Spanish advance. The Amphitrite
also began to hunt for Spaniards with
her searchllrhis and to throw among
them shots from her six-pounders.

FIVE PERSONS KILLED.
Wagon Containing a Pleasure-Seek-
ing Party IL Struck by n Boston
e. Maine Road Train,

Ware, Mass, Aug. 29.-Five persons
were killed at Writings Crossing, on
the Boston & Maine railroad. by a COL
lision between a train and a wagon
containing a pleasure party of II per-
sons. The dead are:
George Whiting, aged 50; Mrs. George
Whiting, Jessie Whiting, aged IS; Sadie.
Whiting, aged 20; unknown boy, who
tagged the crossing.
The pleasure party was made up of
the Whiting family and some of their
immediate friends of Bondville. and
they were going to Forest Lake in a
covered wagon drawn by four horses.
AS the wagon came over the crest
of the hill and started down toward
the railroad track the flag boy at the
foot of the hill was seen to come out of
hesitation to flag an approaching train.
The momentum of the vehicle on the
steep grade was so great, however,
that it went by the flag boy and out
upon the tracks just as the Northamp-
ton and Ware accommodation train
came along.

AT CAMP WIKO If
Secretary Alger Returns from His

Washington, Aug. Secretary Al
ser returned from Camp sWilzof, Mon
tauk Point, Z. T., Saturday morning.
and at once drove to the white house
to have short conference with Presi-
dent Mckinley before the latter start
ed for Somerset, Pa, for short vaca-
ton. 1t was arranged that the presi-
dent should 60 to Camp Wikotf next
Saturday to pay his respects to the
heroes of Santiago, and Secretary AL
ger will meet him there. He assured
the president that the camp is in bet
ter condition than has been reported,
and that the sick are being we'll cared
for in the hospitals, while the con-
valescents have the best of wholesome
food, which will, in the salubrious eli
mate of Montauk, build up the men
and put them in condition to go home
in comfort, t.-l*
The secretary declined to discuss for
publication the criticisms Of the war
department, but he said that the pos
sibilties and almost certainties of ter
rible ravages from the fevers had been
fully discussed Ivy the war officials and
by the press before the army went to
Cuba, and the government had held
back against sending a great army to
Cuba when the same agitators who
now complain that men have died were
demanding thai an army of 100000 be
sent to Cuba. He was thankful that 50
few men had died from disease in Cuba
and that so many of the sick who had
returned were suffering from no worse
complications than malarial fever.
