Gen. Young commanded the expedi-

Col. Wood directed the operations of
the rough riders several miles west.

about the same time, and the fight
lasted an hour.

JrRAGUA. Cuba, June 27.-Thc
initial fight of Colonel Woods rough
riders and the troopers of the First
and Tenth regular cavalry will be
known in history as the battle of La
Quasina. That it did not end in the
complete slaughter of the Americans
was not due to any miscalculation in
the plans of the Spaniards, for as per-
feet an ambuscade as was ever formed
in the brain of an Apache Indian was
prepared and Lieutenant Colonel
Roosevelt and his men walked squarely
into it. For an hour and half they
held their ground under perfect
storm of bullets from the front and
sides and then Colonel Wood at the
right and Lieutenant Colonel Roose-
welt at the left led a charge which
turned the tide of battle and sent the
enemy flying over the hills towards
Santiago. 1t is now definitely known
that sixteen men on the American side
were killed, while sixty were wounded
or are reported to be missing. 1t is
impossible to calculate the Spanish
losses, but it is known that they are
far heavier than those of the Amcri
cans, at least as regards actual loss of
life. Already thirty-seven dead Span
ish soldiers have been found and
buried. while many others undoubted-
ly are lying in the thick underbrush
on the side of the gully and on the
slope of the hill, where the main body
of the enemy was located. The
wounded were all removed.

ADOPT 4 BOLD MOVE.
Crushing Blow to BE Administered to
SPANS SeacOast.


WASHINGTON, June 2s.-The admin
istration has finally come to decision
to send an American Squadron to the
Spanish coast and into the Mediter-
ranean. Several times since the war
broke out rumors to this effect have
circulated, but the project had not
matured. 1t required the Spanish
movement toward the Philippines by
Camara's squadron to decide the navy
department to adopt this bold stroke.
The department has selected Com
modore Watson. now in command Of
the Havana bloclSading squadron, to
strike the blow. A bulletin was posted
stating that his squadron is to be des-
ignated as the eastern squadron. and
will be as follows: Flagship Newark.
battleships Iowa and Oregon, cruisers
Yosemite, Yankee and Dixie. colliers
Scandal, Aberendn and Alexander.
The three GOLFERS are now at Newport
News taking on coal. and it will take
about a week for them to reach Samp-
sons feet, whence the start will
be made for Spain. The determination
to send this squadron against Spain
was the outcome of direct official
advices reaching the state and navy
departments as to the progress of Adj
miral Canara> squadron. These
advices give list of the Spanish ships
now nearing the Suez canal. The
official list is as follows: Pelayo.
Carlos V, Audaz, Oseda. Proserpino,
Patricia. Rapido. Rucnos Ayres. lsla
dc Fancy, Colon. Covandonga and San
Francisco. The additional information
comes from official sources that this
squadron is at Port Said and expects
to take on board 5000 tons of coal
before entering the Suez canal. Such
a heavy coaling will: take some time.
