note to the Spanish commander at Ma
Mia giving him 4s hours in which to
remove the women and children to a
place of safety outside Of the city, but
as the Spanish commander rightly re-
piled that because of the presence of
the Filipino rebels all around the city,
and because of lack OF ships, he could
not take advantage of the privilege
granted him, the attack upon the city
was postponed. The American troops
at this time were established in front
of the tort at Ma]ate, not over $50 yards
from the Spanish lines. Here they re-
manned until that memorable 18th OF
August, when the command forward"
was given.
The battle opened with a cannonade
by the American fleet in heavy rain
storm. For once the aim of the Amer
lean gunners was inaccurate, and the
first shells fired from the Olympia fell
short of the mark they were intended
to hit. But it was only for a short
time, and the American sailors had

Cape Haytien, Hayti, Aug. Stems.
Pablo Reyes, Ramon Pacheco, elena Ma

taken up arms in Santo Domingo in
favor of Don Juan Isidro Jiminez and
occupy the plains of Chaguei and Gu
rabo as far as Jose de Las Matas, as
well as the towns of Guayabin, Sabi-

doned by the troops of the government
OF Santo Domingo. More than half of
these troops are said to have gone over
to the camp of Gen. Pacheco, who is
reported to have more than 800 we'll
armed men under his command.
Gen. Guellito, governor >of Monte
Criste, who, it is claimed, has already
lost half his troops, who have gone over
to the enemy, is in desperate position

DREYFUs TRIAL BEGINS.
of the Famous Prison.
er Begins at Rennes, France
Loudly Declares Innocence.

Renlnes, Aug. s.-The proceedings of
the court-martial before which Capt.
Dreyfuls is on trial opened at 7:1O
O'Clock Monday morning and a few
hours later adjourned, after deciding
to sit behind closed doors to-day and
as many of the following days as are
necessary for the examination of the Sc
cret dossier. The next public session
Will probably take place on Saturday.
Capt. Dreyfus entered the courtroom
with a firm step, though his features
were pallid. He is partly bald, and
what hair he has is gray and close
clipped. ~
he answered the formal questions of
the judge as to his name, age, etc., in
a clear, determined voice. He sat fac
ing the judges with his hands resting
on his knees, an impassive figure. The
trial opened, so far as Rennes is con-
cernaed, in an atmosphere of perfect
tranquility. The population is appar-
emily Indifferent.
The scene inside the courtroom was
most animated. Every inch of space
was filled q quarter of an hour before
the proceedings opened.
A very dramatic scene occurred when

wasted but little ammunition before
they poured into the walls OF the his
toric stone fort such a shower OF steel
that the place was soon untenable by
the Spanish garrison, and it was forced
to retreat towards the city. In this
part of the battle the guns of two Span
ish boats were turned against the de-
tenders of the country that had built
them, the little gunboat Gallon and
the armed steam launch Barcelo. Both
of these vessels being light draft ran
close into shore and poured into the
fort ral1ing fire from their small cal
iber guns. During this part of the
battle the Olympia hurled against the
stone walls 70 five-inch shells and not
less than Is eight-inch shells. the Ra-
leigh and the Petrol firing about the
same number. The vessels Of the feet
confined their bonn bardment to the
forts of the city entirely, and. the bust
ness nnd residence districts were un-
injured. go. f"s5%
While the navy was doing its part
in forcing the surrender of the city,
Gen. Merritt was directing the work of
his little army from the deck of the
transport Zafro, which lay close into
shore. At II o'clock Gen. Greene or
dered the First Colorado regiment to
advance. This was done under cover
Of the Utah battery. and to the stir
ring strains of music played by Amer
lean bands. Through swamps and
streams filled to overfowing by the
