FACE TO FACE WITH DEATH
One of the Most Perlous Feats So Far Under
taken In the War With Spain--And
to the Credit of Ameri
can Sailors.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Key West. Fla, May 27.-Some day after
the epoch of eagerness for the latest
news of the war has passed, somebody will
tell the true story of the cutting of the
cable at Cienfuegos. And when that story
is told people will understand more clearly
than they understand today what sort Of
stuff Uncle Sans navy is made of.
1t was a theme for Victor Hugo or a pic
fure for Messonier that three hours of
herosm, determination and death in the
bay of Cienfuegos that bright May morning.
The men knew that death awaited them
They knew when the small boats were low
cred from the ships and they pulled toward
the shore that while they worked a thous-
and Spaniards were concealed in the tall
grass and underbrush on the shore wait
ing to shower bullets upon them. The look
outs from the masts knew this. The Off
GERS knew it: the men knew it; but the
order to cut had been given and the COM
mand was obeyed.
Small sections Of the cable which these
brave seamen cut that morning are much
sought for as souvenirs at the Key West
hotel since the warships brought back the
dead and wounded after the work was done.
There is something amusing and at the
same time inspiring in the picture as one
looks upon the rotunda or the hotel as the
wounded man happens to stroll in. He sees
the valuable little souvenirs passed about
from hand to hand. He hears the story told
over and over again, and he smiles in ST.
1ence and limps away. He alone knows the
story But he is the last one to tell It,
Ask him about 1t and he tells you the cable
was cut, two men were killed ana SIX
badly wounded, that is about all.
Lieutenant C. M. q Winslow of the Nash
vile, who was in command of the expedi-
fion came into the hotel last evening and
was soon surrounded by a group OF friends
eager to hear his story OF the AFFAIR In
which he was the principal figure. He mad
been wounded in the left hand and his arm
was yet in a sling. He was not eager 10

believing from the ships and that monent
was the fatal oae
Snap, snap, crash from hundred diff
ferent points came the fire from the Span
ish rifles and eight brave men sank down
in the boat. Two were dead and six were
wounded.
But the Spaniards were too late. AL
ready one cable had been hauled up and
$50 feet cut out of it. This was the cable
that ran to Babatone and connected with
Havana. 1t was slow, laborious work. The
heavy cables had to be hauled up across
the small boats and then by slow degrees
the tough steel wires were hacked off with
axes, chisels and saws.
After the volley had been fired by the
Spaniards, the men transferred the dead
and wounded to another boat and began
looking for the other cable, which ran to
Santiago. This was soon found and again
under the canopy of shot and shell from the
ships they worked bravely on until a Sec
ton of so feet had been taken from that
one. Then another smaller cable running
to some local point was cut and Captain
General Blanco's last line of communication
with the world was apparently severed
When our ships first opened fire on the
shore, it was the intention to allow the
lighthouse to remain standing, but when
the Spaniards pourned in their fire upon
the boats, the men on the Marbleheads dis
come from the lighthouse. The guns of the
Marblehead were at once trained upon the
building,
"Cut it DOWN. shouted the commander
from the. bridge. and the Marblehead's guns
again thunderded
The craftsmanship was marvellous FIRST
the small house about the base of the tower
was literally torn to atoms, and then like
an axenian cutting down tree, one of the
great guns of the ship with shot after shot
bit off the great tower at the top. This was
done at a range of /, 900 yards with a heavy
sea rolling. Then it was all over and the
small boats were towed back to the war
ships with random shots from the shore fol-
lowing them.
1t was just O'Clock in the morning when
the small boats were put off and the peril
Gus trip began, and 1t was 1918 a. M when
the boats were again hauled up with the
dead and living heroes to the decks of the
ships. For nearly three hours those men
worked under the very shadow of death
without fiinching. It is said the men in our
navy are untried. That is true. But this
is how they conduct themselves when the
trial comes. They are veterans without
service.
