CAMP. McCALLA, near Guantanamo,

Jamaica, p. m, June 19.-For several
days past small bodies OF Spaniards
have been hanging around the northern
end OF the harbor Of Guantanamo and
annoying the gunboats and launches by
occasional firing. They had been COM
Ing from small blockhouse about five
miles back from that part of the harbor
in which the American warshlps have
been lying. Ts
This morning the gunodat Suwanee led
the way up the channel, followed by the
Marblehead and the launches on both
ships and opened heavy fire on the
guerrillas seen at short distance from
the shore line.
The shots were not effective at first,
but the Spanish infantry made frritIc
burst for cover while the shells pursued
them striking all around.
The Dolphin Joined In the firing and
for twenty minutes q heavy fire was
kept up when the signal to cease firing
was hoisted. The Suwanee steamed
close inshore for 4 long distance, but
was not able to see any signs Of the
Spaniards, while no reply OF any kind
was made to the American fire.
The Spanish loss could not have been
heavy as the enemy rap too East for
cover at the first shots. Later in the
day the Oregon'sent several shots nj the
blockhouse damaging It badly and caus-

The quiet which has prevailed since
Capt Elliott and Capt. Spicer defeated

to indicate that the Spaniards are mass

The Cubans are generally OF tho opin-
ion that the Spahiards have had enough
for the time being and that no further
attack will be made at present.
According to the report OF General
Perez, commander OF the insurgents, the
condition of the Spaniards at Guantana-

He says that they are eating horses and
mules and that other food is very scarce.
