THE JUDGES DECISION.

The decision OF Col. Wagner, Col.
Scott and Major Mccoy was rendered
to Colonel Jones after considerable
consultation on the part of the judges
and is as follows:

appointed in failing TO arrive in time
to witness the sham battle. The regu-
lars presented a fine appearance, clad
in Khaki trousers and blue shirt. Com
pany F Of the local regiment gave a
special drill for the benefit of the visit
ing battalion and were loudly applaud
ed
Shortly after noon the march back u
the city began with colors flying and
the band playing a stirring martial air.
Tram cars carried the tired fighters
back to the drill shed, and thus end
ed one of the most important features
which the National Guard has indulg-
ed in. That it was memorable occa-
sion is evidenced from the fact that it
had for a judge one of the Assistant
Adjutant- Generals of the United
States army TO observe its movements
and criticise them for the benefit of
the guard. Col. Wagner is a writer up
on strategical movements and army
tactical work, and is conceded an emin-
ent authority upon military matters.
Colonel Jones expressed his keen APP
probation of the work of his battalion
commanders and said: Il think the
troops behaved extremely we'll, and the
sham battle was a great credit to the
organization.
Minister Mott-Smith said: The bat
tie was particularly valuable because
of the strategical points which were
involved and brought out. 1t was a
valuable lesson in tactical and practi-
cal knowledge"
Occupants of hundreds of carriages,
and multitudes of people viewed the
spectacle from the ManOa road and all
the surrounding hills about the field of
battle. No ambulances were in attend
ance, but many dead marines were left
on the scene of the action.

The fight over the stone wall was
tiercely contested, and resulted in a
retreat Of Camara's skirmishers to the
protection afforded by the skirmishers
half way up the hill. At this point
Camara's reserves began heavy firing
on Zeigler's advance, sufficient, had it
been actual warfare to have annihiIat-
ed it before it reached the base Of
Rocky Hill. Here the defense was
spirited and heavy volley firing on
both sides hid both bodies of troops
under heavy mantle of smoke. AS

REPORT OF JUDGES.

The flank attack along the stone
fence would have succeeded in driv-
ing the defenders back to their main
position. Only part Of the defensive
force would, however. have been COM
promised and defenders would have
been in position to resist stubbornly.
Owing to the strength Of the de-
fensive position and the losses already
encountered by the defensive, the lat
ter did not have the numerical odds
necessary to carry the position and the
attack would have failed"

ditions as suggested by the topography

upon by the field piece of the defen-
sive line. 4 rapid fire soon followed
on the part of the artillery supports,
but the skirmishers took up positions
behind a ridge of rocks and were not
dislOdged. Zeigler's artillery was late
in getting into action to attempt to
silence the opposite gun, but defective
ammunition caused considerable delay
The defense contemplated an attack
from the center of the opposing force,
although a skirmish line was thrown
out on their left, which was understood
on the part of Maj. Camara, as a feint.
However the firing on Zeigler's left be-
came persistent, and the gun on the
crest was swung in on them. AS a prac-
teal maneuver this latter movement
could probably not have been accom-
plished in actual warfare as the gun
during its firing upon the infantry ad
vance would have been silenced by the
opposing gun, and the defenders would
thereby have been deprived of it's prin-
cipal support.
When the supposed feint developed
into a general flank attack, Major Ca
mara dispatched a heavy line of Skin
miShers to the bottom of the hill be-
yond the windmill, and they took up
position behind the stone wall near
President Dole's carriage. Zeigler's
force moving in skirmish line through
mill was caught in an enfilading fire
at this juncture, but rapidly changed
front and reformed their advance line
behind the old shanty.

The judges o. the merits Of the OPP
posing lines Of strategy agreed that the
position occupied by Major Camara
was admirably adapted for defensive
purposes, and being such his men
should not have been exposed as much
as they were, especially his reserves,
which occupied a position in front OF
the highest eminence instead of be-
hind it, exposing it to the opposite ar
tillery fire, this being accentuated by
their diversified uniform Otherwise
the disposition of skirlnishers was
we'll done, and his counter attack at
the stone wall was a fine piece of STRAIT
egy AS to Major Zeigler's plan of at
tack, it was well carried out, especial
ly in the first movement which ap-
peared to be a feint upon Camara 5
right flank, but later developed into
massed attack engaging his entire left
wing. The sOrtie against this move
ment was well timed, and in actual
engagement would have held the adj
vancing force while the reserves would
have poured IN a CALLING fire and dis

AS to the artillery. Its mission or
both sides should have been to silence
the guns, thus putting them out of the
fight entirely on both sides. Maj Zeig-
ler's attack all through was well con-
lucted, but, as the judges declared, the

THE VIEW OF THE BATTLE.

From the crest of the hill the view
of the battle was superb; heavy VOL
leys from botn sides were fired fast
and furiously covering the contested
field with thick pail Of smoke. The
artillery on the hill had its attention
divided between the opposite gun
which it was endeayoring to silence
and which, although lightly supported,
was a strong feature in covering the
attack, and the infantry advance, now
general one along Major Camara's
right flank. Steadily advancing from
the shanty and through the woods
Zeigler's command encountered CANA
ra's advance line behind the stone will,
which had gone into close action for
counter.
