LUNDuS, June 2a-AH the special
dispatches from Madrid reflect the
anxiety produced by Admiral Cervcra's
dispatches and the threatening aspect
Of the political situation. There Is no
doubt the spaniards are sadly disap-
pointed at the ease with which Gen
shafJer effected O landing. and at the
retreat toward Santiago, which Is re-

Col. Wood directed the operations of

Both parties struck the Spaniurds
about the same time, and the Eight

The Spaniards opened fire from the

The Americans now hold the position
