CIENFUEGOS FIGHT
Cutting Of Gable Connecting Glen
fuegos and Havana Resulted in
Battle with Spaniards.
THE FORT BLOWN TO PIECES
One American Killed and Six Badly Wound
ed-Spanish Loss Estimated at 400
Lighthouse and Arsenal Totally
Destroyed.

Copyrighted by Associated Press, Ke,
West, Fla, May 1.-THE United State
cruiser Marblehead, gunboat Nashville
and auxiliary cruiser Window steamed
up to the harbor of Cienfuegos earl,
Wednesday morning with orders to cuI
the cable connecting Havana with San
tiago de Cuba. gIhiS task was accom-
plished, after terrible fight between
the United States warships and several
thousand Spanish troops, which lined
the shore and lay concealed behind inn
provised breastworks. Seaman Regan,
of the Marblehead, was killed outright;
in one of the working small boats, six
men were severely wounded. In addi-
ton large number on the ship received
minor wounds.
When the Spaniards opened fire the
Marblehead sent shell inland, which
was followed with a perfect shower of
shot The Nashville followed and the
little Window cut loose with her four
Founders. Meanwhile Spanish bullets
fell in every direction around the small
boats The blue jackets, protected by
terrific return fire from the warships,
continued their work until the cable
was cut.
The Spaniards suffered sevele loss.
Shots from the light house struck the
warships several times. The fire of the
warships was concentrated upon the
light house and the improvised fort was
blown to pieces. As great number of
Spaniards were in and behind the fort
there is no doubt many were killed.
Commander Washburn Maynard, of the
Nashville, was slightly wounded by
spent shell, and Lieutenant Cameron M.
Wtnslow, of the gunboat Nashville, was
also slightly wounded. Three of the
wounded Americans will likely die. The
wounded were brought here this morn
ing. The man killed on the Marblehead
was Seaman Regan. The badly wound
ed are: John Davis, New York; John
Z. Doran, Fall River: Robert Boltz.
Nashville, N. c.; Ernest Suntzeanoikle,
Herman w. Hochneiser, and Harry
Henderson. All but Boltz belong to the
Marblehead. None of the ships were
damaged to any extent.
Spanish Loss Estimated at 400.
New York, May 14.-A dispatch adds
that the Spanish loss is estimated at
400, and that Of the United States fleet
at four killed and four wounded. The
light house was demolished, the arsenal
destroyed and the batteries on shore
'llenced. The town was set on fire by
shells from the fleet.

BROOKLYN Eagle,


Harper's Weekly and the Sun have

ton Lewis Mr.. Lewis is a man who
parts his name and his whiskers in the
middle and thinks so much of his title that
when he wears it he bends backward. He
Is figured in this photograph In his cele
brated act of defying the army. Mr.. Lewis
being an officer of the militia in the state
Of Washington He has placed his sword
in front of himself. with his left hand on
the hilt. as signifying that he would draw
it at n moments notice against the ne
mics of the militia of the state OF Wash
ington. even though that enemy should
be one of the '.gilded military satraps and
tasseled society sapheads'' ~ the regulars.
Mr.. Lewis has been making remarks
against West Point as the breeding place

his own of insolence surely not approach

there is no call for farther comparisons.
Mr.. Lewis is type OF the little big man

ing Tor action in the shadow OF the Stars
and Stripes is not merely preposterous
and outrageous; II is insanity. The atti-

kind of a man he is. Fortunately, there
are very few OF him.
