BATTLE OF SANTIAGO.

Captain Kerr. One OF the Wounded He-
roes, Tells About tho Fight.
/, Captain John b. Kerr. tho first of the
wounded heroes of Santiago to reach St.
Louis, is now staying at tho home Of
his father-in.law, Gaius Paddock, 1885
Washington boulevard, where Mrs.
Kerr has been living since her husband
went to the front. Captain Kerr's
wounded arm, through which Spanish
bullet fired from Mauser rife tore, is
getting along as well as could be ex-
pected, but owing to the zigzag course
taken by the bullet it will bo some time
before he can return to his command.
Captain Kerr was wounded in the
battle before Santiago ON July /, when
SO many brave men were killed and
wounded. In speaking of the battle re.
Gently he said: "It was the hottest kind
of an engagement, and our boys, who
had been longing for brush with the
enemy, got it with vengeance. The
battle opened at daybreak with an at
tempt by our forces to dislodge the
Spanish outposts. / was in charge of a
squadron OF four troops of regailar cav
alrymen, dismounted on this occasion.
In all l had about 400 men and with
this force stormed the center of the ene-
my's line Of intrenchments We charged
directly into the enemy's trenches in
the face OF a terrible fire from the
Mausers. The charge took us up steep
hill, but notwithstanding the fact that
our men were falling at every step my
brave troopers never faltered. We forced
the Spanish outposts and skirmishers to
retire to their trenches and after sew
eral hours hard fighting dislodqed them
from there. Bullets rained thick and
fast around me, but luckily escaped
until late in the afternoon, when force
of Spaniards, while in retreat, turned
and fired one final volley at us. 1t was
one OF these bullets that struck me.
During the early part of the engage
ment men were shot down within few
feet Of me on both sides / saw num-
Der OF brave officers killed, and my
bugler, almost directly at my elbow,
was slain. The Spanish losses were
much heavier than ours, although ours
was very severe. "--St. Louis Globe
Democrat.
