Washington, July 2.--The president
and secretary Of war, through a private
dispatch from the battlefield, learn that
the engagement was resumed this morn
ing and has continued all day.
The wounded are coming in rapidly and
the indications point to heavy losses. The
dispatch does not indicate decisive re-
suit in any direction.
The profoundest concern throughout mil
itary and official circles marked the open
ing Of the second day upon which the
battle of Santiago is being fought. The
desperate character Of the fighting is now
fully known to the war department. The
information is in addition to the report
made by General Shaftcr last midnight
when he roughly estimated the casualties
at about 400 Latest reports, direct from
the field, indicate this estimate is far tot
low.
Owing to the many conflicting reports
OF the losses Of the American troops "
yesterdays engagement, it has beer
thought best by the war department Off
Gals to make public the text Of Genera
Skaters last dispatch received this morn
ing ut 4 o'clock 1t Is as follows:

Attack ON san Juan.

New York. July IA dispatch to the
Evening World. dated in the field, two
miles from Santiago, July H. and cabled
from Playa del Este, says;
SAN Juan heights have fallen and the
way is now opened for the advance on
MORO castle. 1t was glorious victory,
but very dearly purchased. The place
was the strongest Spanish outpost, well
fortified and valiantly defended. The po-
sition was an excellent one. 1t was also
occupied by barracks and other buildings,
but the American troops stormed the
heights and Spanish valor had to yield to
the bull dog tenacity and courage Of the
Anglo Saxon.
As write our troops are swarming up
the hill and covering it like ants. The
Spaniards are demoralized. The fighting
has been of the hardest kind, and our
troops have suffered severely, but the en-
eny's works are in their hands and they
don't count the cost.
FL Oney is also ours The general ad-
vance, which began at 3 p. M, has been
successful all along the line. After driv-
ing the enemy out of FL Caney, the troops
took possession of the village and de-
stroyed the Spanish forts by Which it had
been defended. The Spaniards fed into
Santiago, where they now are. Losses on
both sides are very heavy. The bursting
Of a Spanish shell almost annihilated ar
entire company Of our troops.
The heavy volley firing was heard fol
three hours. 1t seemed to indicate strong
American advance. There is no artillery
firing from FL Caney and only scatterin,
shots come from San Juan. Both division
are really in battle.
The day is clear and moderate breez
blowing. but there is strong heat. Tn
troops are in good condition. The bat
terry has shot 100 rounds, two-thirds shell
and the balance shrapnel. The militar.
