diana, Texas and Vixen closed around
 the Spaniards, all pouring in a deadly
 fire, but from the beginning to the end
 of the fight the Brooklyn, Oregon and
 Gloucester took the most important
 part in the destruction of the enemy.
 One man. George Henry Ellis, was
 killed on board the Brooklyn. His head
 was blown off by a shell. One other
 man. J. Burns, was injured on board
 of her.
 The Brooklyn was struck half a dozen
 times, but no injury was done to any
 of the other American ships.
 When the Vizcaya caught fire and
 was obliged to run ashore to keep from
 going down, the Iowa and Texas both
 gave assistance to her imperiled crew.,
 Captain Eulate surrendered his com
 mand, and the prisoners were trans-
 ferred to the battleship Iowa. The Viz
 caya probably lost about GO men, aa she carried a complement of 400 and only $40 were taken aboard the Iowa wainwright Avenges the Maine. Soon after Admiral Cervera reached the shore and surrendered he was taken to the Gloucester at his own request There was no mistaking the heartbroken expression upon the old seaman's faca as he took the proffered hand of Lieu tenant Commander Wainwright and was shown to the latter's cabin, but he made every effort to bear bravely tha bitter defeat that had come to him. H. thanked the captain of the Glc.eestei for the words of reorganization Filtered on the gallant fight and then spoka earnestly of his solicitude for the safety of his men on shore He informed Lieu. tenant Commander Wainwright that Cuban soldiers were on the hills pre- pairing to attack his unarmed men and said he thought his sailors had suffered enough in their battle with the Ameri- can forces and that he was willing to surrender his entire command, but he asked that some protection be given to his men until they could be taken off in
 the American vessels. Wainwright had heard similar reports from his own off, ficers regarding the presence of Cubanl in the brush, and he sent a guard ot armed sailors ashore to prevent the Spanish prisoners from being molested. Lieutenant Commander Wainwright was executive officer of the Maine at the time of the disaster, and, although he remained in Havana harbor two months after the explosion, he lived on board the dispatch boat Fern and stead fastly refused to set his feet within the ClIy ulllls lo use HIS oWA WOluSi tHS time should come when he could go ashore at the head of a landing party of American bluejackets.
 From his position on the bridge of the Gloucester Lieutenant Commander
 Wainwright watched the flames and
 smoke roaring through the decks of the
 three greatest warships of the Spanish navy, which were soon to be reduced to nothing but shattered masts and twisted smokestacks protruding above the water similar to that other picture in Havana harbor. It was not strange, therefore, that he remarked te his broth CT officers beside him, "The Maine Is aynupndfp

GENERAL PANDo.

Santiago had appealed to the Spanish commander to surrender rather than be subjected to a bombardment.
 General Linares, although in great pain from the injury to his arm and compelled to depend for support upon General Toral, absolutely refused to comply with the archb!shop's request.
 He emphasized his refusal, said sever al of yesterdays arrivals from Santia- go, by declaring that he would burn the city before he would permit it to fall into the hands of the Americans.
 Spanish Troops Depressed.
 The Spanish troops in Santiago had been greatly reduced in numbers just prior to the arrival of General Pando's re-enforcements. Refugees declare that General Linares had only 4,00O regulars and 200 volunteers left with which to defend the city. Several thousand of his men had been killed and wounded and Admiral Cervera no longer was aid- ing with his fleet.
 The enemy's troops were much de- pressed over these conditions, and their spirits were further lowered by the wounding of General Linares and the death of General Vera del Key. who succeeded General Linares in command ing the Spanish troops at the front. If the Spanish soldiers could have their way, 1t is said, they would surrender to General Shafter forthwith. The refu- gees generally agreed that the city would be surrendered. but the Spanish leaders showed no inclination to adopt that course.
 Assistant Naval Constructor Rich mond P. Hobson and several of his men have been III with climatic fever in San tiago since Saturday. They are being we'll cared for, both as to food and med ical treatment, being attended by Span ish and English physicians. They have excellent quarters In the leading hotel of the city
Connecticut western news., 1898-07-07

and particularly the wounded, will be received with joy in all parts of tho country.
 General Shafter's statement of the sit- uation in Santiago is borne out by the condition of the men captured by the American fleet from the vessels of Ger vera's squadron. They had been on halt rations so long that many of them were nearly famished, and If they had not been taught that capture by the Ameri- cans meant death they would have welcomed 1t because it insured them good fsod and plenty of it.
 It is learned authoritatively that tre- mendous pressure is being brought to bear upon the Spanish commander of Santiago by the foreign consuls resident in the city to induce him in the inter est of humanity to surrender to the inevitable. The consuls have communi- cated with their home governments, and 1t Is believed here that representations will be made by them to Spain to induce her to permit the city to surrender, thereby preventing further loss of life and property. What the result of these negotiations will be cannot be foretold. The opinion expressed by war officials Is that the Spaniards will fight to the last and capitulate only when they are forced to do so. For that reason any delay of offensive action against the city is not regarded in army circles with favor.

 Kingston, Jamaica, July 6.-The dis patch boat Wanda brings the follow ing from Admiral Sampsons fleet of Santiago, dated July 8, 6 D. m.:
 Admiral Cervera's fleet, consisting ot the armored cruisers Cristobal Colon, Almirante Oquendo, Infanta Maria Teresa and Vizcaya and two torpedo boat destroyers, the Furor and the Plu- ton, which had been held in the harbor of Santiago de Cuba for six weeks past by the combined squadrons of Rear Ad- miral Sampson and Commodore Schley, lies at the bottom of the Caribbean sea, off the southern coast of Cuba.
 The Spanish admiral is a prisoner oi war on the auxiliary gunboat Glouces- ter, formerly MT. J. Pierpont Morgan $ yacht Corsair, and 1000 to 1,500 other Spanish officers and sailors, all of whom escaped the frightfrA carnage caused by the shells from the American warships, are also held as prisoners of war.
 The American victory is complete, and the American vessels were practically untouched and only one man killed, though the ships were subjected to the heavy fire of the Spaniards all the time the battle lasted
 Admiral Cervera made as gallant a dash for liberty and for the preserva- tion of his ships this morning as has ever occurred in the history of naval warfare. In the face of overwhelming odds, with nothing before him but in- evitable destruction or surrender if he remained any longer in the trap in which the American fleet held him, he

PANDO WOUNDED.
Spanish General Reported to Have Beer
 Shot In Battle.

SnOb m
 Kingston, Jamaica, July 6.-Another of the Spanish leaders, General Pando, has fallen in battle, but his troops, numbering 1000, have succeeded in get ting into the city of Santiago.
 The news was received from refugees who arrived here from Santiago They came on the British men-of-war Alert and Pallas and the Austrian warship Maria Teresa.
 According to these refugees, General Pando was seriously wounded in the arm while commanding his troops in a battle at Los Palmas, at which point General Garcia, with several thousand Cubans, attempted to prevent his far ther advance toward Santiago.
 After the battle General Pando's men proceeded toward the city, finally en- terlng without difficulty. General Pan do was carried along with the troops and now is being cared for on the dis mantled Spanish cruiser Reina Mer- cedes, which is lying In Santiago harbor and is used as hospital ship.
 The Cubans under Garcia, in their ef- forts to intercept Pando's army, made a stubborn fight. They were no match for the 1000 trained soldiers under the Spanish general, although they checked the enemy's progress for time.
 General Garcia's appearance at Los Palmas was in accordance with plans agreed upon by General Shafter and the Cuban commander several days ago. It was feared by both generals that the Cubans under Garcia would be unable to prevent General Pando from forcing his way into the city, owing to superior numbers. But General Shafter believed that Garcia would be able to hold Pan do in check long enough to enable the American forces to the east of the city to gain material advantages.
 General Pando Is the third conspicu- ous Spanish leader to fall in battle since the attack upon Santiago began.
 Threatens to Burn Santiago.
 General Linares, in command of tho Spanish forces in Santiago. will not surrender to General Shafter, accord ing to statements made by refugees who arrived here from Santiago yester- day.
 T shall burn the city to the ground first" they quote General Linares as having declared. -
