DESPERATE BATTLE.
| That the Spaniards were thoroughly
| posted as to the route to be taken by
| the Americans in their movements to-
wards Sevilla is evident, as shown by
the careful preparations they had made.
| The main body of the Spaniards was
posted on a hill on the heavily wooded
| slopes on which had been erected two
blockhouses fanked by irregular In
trenchments of stone and fallen trees.
| At the bottom Of these hills run two
roads, along which Lieut.. Col. Roose-
vet's men and eight troops Of the First
and Tenth cavalry, with a battery Of
four howitzers. advanced. These roads
are but little more than gullies, rough
| and narrow, and at places almost i'm
passable.
| In these trails the fight occurred.
| Nearly half a mile separated Roose-
veit's men from the regulars, and be-
tween them, and on both sides Of the
road in the thick underbrush, was con-
cealed a force of Spaniards that must
have been large, judging from the ter
| rife and constant fire they poured in on
| the Americans.
| The fight was opened by the First and
Tenth cavalry, under Gen. Young. A
I force Of Spaniards was known to be
in the vicinity Of La Quasina, and early
in THE morning Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt 8
men started off up the precipitous bluff,
| back Of Siboney, to attack the Span
iards on their right flank, Gen. Young
at the same time taking the road at the
| foot of the hill. About two and a half
miles out from Siboney some Cubans,
| breathless and excited, rushed into
camp with the announcement that the
Spaniards were but little way in front
and were strongly entrenched.
SCOUTING LINE.
Quickly the Hotchkiss guns out in
the front were brought to the rear, and
a quick scouting line was put out and
quickly and silently the troops moved.
A bend in the road disclosed a hill on
which the Spaniards were located The
guns were again brought to the front
and placed in position while the men
| crouched down in the road waiting ir-
patiently to give Roosevelt's men, who
were toiling over the little trail along
the crest of the ridge, time to get up.
At 7:30 a. =. Gen. Young gave the
command to the men at the Hotchkiss
guns to open fire. The command was
the signal for a fight that for stubborn
ness has seldom been equaled. The in
stant the Hotchliss guns were fired the
hillsides gave forth volley after volley
from the Mausers of the Spaniards
Don't shoot until you see something
to shoot at" yelled Gen. Young, and
the men obeyed the order. Crawling
along the edge of the road and protect
ing themselves as much as possible
from the fire of the Spaniards the
troopers watched the base of the hill,
