BEYOND REPAIR.
Santiago Forts Are Ruined By the

Santiago Forts Are Ruined by the
American Bombardment.
on Santiago de Cuba, via Kingston,
Jamaica, June 21.-A careful inspec-
tion Of the hills defending Santiago
harbor since the bombardment Thurs
day morning shows that the American
gunners spread wreck and ruin every
where. Some of the batteries we're de-
molished beyond repair.
The vultures, which circled over the
hills as thick as swallows around a
chimney for hours after the firing
ceased, furnished gTuesome evidence Of
the fatality among the Spanish sol
diers. Hundreds of troops could be
seen from the ships digging in mounds
of earth, piled by the explosion of the
projectiles from the heavy guns, for
bodies, while their heads were famed
by the wings of the black scavengers
of the battlefield.
There we're two spots, one on the
east and the other on the west of the
harbor entrance, which were denuded
Of their foliage. The hilltops seem to
be totally blown away. These marked
the places where the 2o0-pound charges
of gun cotton, thrown by the Vesuvius,
landed.
But the most ominous token OF death
flew fiom MORO castle. The saffron
flag of Spain was hali-mastcd for sew
eral hours. The significance Of this is
not known. II is not customary to
half-mast flags, but possibly some
Spanish leader was killed by the heavy
fire OF the guns, though some officers Of
the squadron believe that the flag was
half-masted as a notification to the
Americans that Lieutenant Hobson
and his brave men were dead.
If such is the case, they must have
been wantonly murdered. The Span
ish might seeR to lay their death to
the bombardment, but not shot from
the Americans struck the fortress.
Neither Admiral Sampson nor Com
modore Schley believe that Lieutenant
Hobson and his party have been killed.
We have IL prisoners taken at Guam
tanamo. including lieutenant, besides
a number in the United States, for re-
prisals or exchange.
There was evident decentralization
among the Spanish troops during the
bombardment. Officers could be seen
with drawn swords driving the men to
the guns, but even then they. could not
be forced to stay, so long as our fire
was directed at them. Fifteen
minutes night work by the vesuvius
had done the work.
