regard to the exact condition of affairs
ashore.
They claim, however, that one shell ex-
pIoded in a ricochet. killing a number of
children, while another shell demolished
the house of the commandant Of the ma
rines of San Juan de Porto Rico.
The parts of the city within range or tbs
forts suffered the most. The officers OF
the French ship say they do not know
how many persons were killed during the
bombardment, but they express the opin-
ion that the number was small.
On the other hand, they say the num-
Der of persons wounded was very large.
The officers Of the French cruiser also
critic,se the wisdom OF the bombardment.
The Admiral Regault de Gonouilly was
injured by pieces of shell exploding during
the bombardment and her rigging was
cut.
When the cruiser left San Juan its In
habitants were beginning to return 20 the
city. The most strict censorship over teIe-
graphic messages is observed at the cap
ital of Porto Rico.
