and McCabe was forced to get awav.
During the engagement Col. Sheehan
received a slight flesh wound across
the abdomen, the bullet just cutting
the skin. He also got a bullet through
his coat sleeve and another through
his trousers leg over the left hip. The
wounded man. who Is now in the hos
pital here at Walker, is shot through
the leg. 1t is flesh wound, but very
painful, owing to the long exposure.
Maj. Wilkinson was killed Wednes-
day afternoon. He received Il flesh
wound in the leg and retired to have it
dressed by DR.. Harris, the surgeon
with the party. He then reported to
zen. Bacon OH the firing line as ready
FOR duty. and while talking with Gen.
Bacon an Indian sharpshOoter picked
him out Mai. Wilkinson was shot
through the body from side to side and
'"ed almost instantly.
Inc agency Indians have been dis
posed to be peaceful up to yesterday,
put last night one of the Indian police
was killed by the troops by mistake,
ana the Indians are disposed to be
hostile. The occurrence was most un-
fortunate, but it is hard to see how
any blame can attach to the troops.
Sounds of Conflict Continue.
Sounds of conflict have come from
icar island all day. but people here
ar" still in ignorance of the real situa-
tloh on the battle-ground where Gen.
Bacon and his men had their desper-
ate encounter with the Pillager In
dams yesterday afternoon. Up to an
early hour this morning there were
many grounds for fearing Gen. Bacon
ana his command had been annihi-
lated. No direct word had been re-
celved from :iny man who participated
in the first battle.
early this morning. however, the fir
ing was resumed. and it has continued
practically all day. This makes it GER
tain Gen. Bac ms command is still on
earth and in fighting trim. 1t is be-
ileved the soldiers are entrenched and
III position to hold until reinforce
mentS reach them.
Lieut.. Col. Harbach. of the Third in
fantry reached here late yesterday
afternoon With two hundred men and

Washington. Oct. 9.--Scnor Qucscda,

Of the conditions Of tie stand.
''Thc Inhabitants :..,> starving he

there will befvery few people left. The
people have Ie,: nc opportunity to
plant CT raise crops: they have no
money to purchase supplies, and what
food there is in the island is beyond
their reach. The greatest suffering is
in Santa Clara. although it is very bad
in Puerto Principe. Only one port,
Matanzas. is open. and its situation is
not favorable to reaching other Dor-
tons of the island. The Red Cross and
the United States. under the general
treaty. are not allowed to go beyond
the line designated by the Spaniards in
carrying supplies to the people, be-
cause they would be liable to be
charged with smuggling. Our people
lo not understand why so much time
is taken in ending Spanish rule in the
island. Before the war the American
government gave Spain forty eight
hours in which to answer the ulti,
matum. but now months are given for
evacuation"
