MADRID, June S.-The following
version of the operations At Santiago is
officially given to the press:
"a bloody encounter has taken place
at Santiago. The American feet
thrice attacked the Spanish land and
marine batteries but was repulsed, the
batteries inhicting heavy losses upon
them.
sIt is estimated that 1,5O0 Amer
leans we're killed and wounded. The
Americans, however, sank the Reina
Mercedes, whose lieutenant, Acosta,
was killed. The reported wound re-
ceived by Col. Odenez is slight"
At q conference held last evening
between Premier Ssgasta and War
Minister Correa, important dispatches
from Gen. Augusti, captain general OF
the Philippines, were read. August

with the Philippines situation. The
request was granted.
LONDON, juno 8.-Madrid advicea
picture q scene of perfect contentment
over the Santiago affair. It seems
the shells did not hurt the Spanish
any, but sailed clear over their heads
and annihilsted the insurgents.
On the other hand the American
fleet WAS badly wrecked. The Texas
suffered especially, most of her Officers
being killed. Altogether it was q
great American disaster.

Transports Leave Tampa.

NEW YORK, June 8.-A Special to the
Journal from Tampa says number Of
transports crowded with troops started
this morning for Santiago.
CHICAGO, June 8.-A Tribune tele-
gram from Key West says that rush
orders were received at Tampa last
night to start an army of invasion to
Santiago. Before midnight transports
carrying 5000 troops had sailed out of
the bay. Fifteen thousand more are Cd
board steamers ready for the order to
move.
The troops which left last night are
the Fourth, Eighth, Thirteenth, and
Twenty-Fifth infantry of the regular
army, and the rough riders under Col.
Wood and Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt. Or
ders for the sailing OF the othe r
transports are expected at any hour.
WASHINGTON, June 8-With the
Spanish feet "bottled up'' in Santiago
it is stated that it will be necessary for
only three war vessels, the Indiana.
Helena, and Bancroft, to convoy the
Santiago expedition, which leaves
Tampa today.
When the troops arrive at Santiago
the landing by means Of pontoor
bridges will take probably day before
it is complete. The army will be large
enough quickly to subdue the Spanish
forces, and the battle ought TO be
neither long nor severe.
WASHINGTON, June 8.-The reports
reaching the war department from
Tampa today are closely guarded. II
is understood, however, that transports
have been leaving that port 1T inter
walls during the day.
These ships will stand off at sea un
til joined by the other transports,
which are detained because of the diff.

SAMPSON.
Fully Confirms Previous News.

TuHy NOhlHuS FIStiOuS NO"S'
. WASHINGTON, June Rear Ad-
miral Sampson's report of Mondays
engagement was received at eight
O'Clock tonight. He says the fleet
ombarded the ports at Santiago two
and half hours on Monday, silencing
them completely. There was slight
injury to the men, and no damage was
done.
WASHINGTON, June 8.-There is
reason to believe that the brief bull
letin given out at the navy department
last night did not contain all the in
formation received from Rear Admiral
Sampson relative to the bombardment
OF Santiago on June 9th.
Officials refused to discuss the sub
ject or give out any further informa-
ton. While naval authorities refuse
to discuss either reason for the prob
able bombardment they evidently are
thoroughly satisfied with the result.
It is pretty we'll understood that the
purpose of the bombsrdment was eth.
er to pave the way for the landing of
troops or actually to cover their land
ing. It Is not believed that Sampson,
after having silenced the forts, would
leave them to be reh affiliated by the
enemy.
It 10 deemed likely that he landed
sufficient marines to hold the ground
gaioed and make preparations for land
ing the regular forces upon their ar
rival, if indeed some of them are not
already at hand.
Its said this morning that Samp-
son has grown very impatient over the
delay in sending troops to Santiago
and he has several times appealed to
the navy department to 'hurry up
troops"
Yesterday he was informed that the
movement was actually to begin. To-
day is the time set for the general de-
parture from Tampa. The. force, it is
ssid, consists of twenty seven thou
sand men, mostly regulars. This
leaves fifteen Thousand regulars and
volunteers still at Tampa available for
PortoaRtco an expedition to which will
be started soon. The troops at Jack
sonville will also be equipped and
made ready for the expedition
