A belated dispatch from Coptain J
M. Miller Of the cruiser Columbia
which, with the Newark, is In San Do

ton of the Associated Press dispatch
regarding the bombardment of the in
surgents by the war vessels, of po
sition near the capital city, the land
ing of marines and bluejackets to pun.
ish revolutionists and their subsequent
re-embarkation.
According to Captain Miller's dis.
patch the affair occurred on river
about two miles from Santo Domingo
presumably at Pajarilo, the place men
toned In the press dispatches as the
locality Of the bombardment. The in.
surgents, who were stationed on the
mainland, fired on a United States
merchant vessel, believed to be the
New York. which was lying in the riv'
er. The shots fell so dangerously near
the war vessels that the acts Of the
insurgents were construed by Captain
Miller as an attack on the vessels, and
a battery fire was opened on the revo
lutionists. This was followed up by
the debarkation of 400 marines and
bluejackets from the Columbia and
the Newark, who made a successful
landing ashore. They dislodged the
insurgents from their positions and
chased them into the country. After
accomplishing this the marines and
bluejackets took again to their boats
and returned to their ships.
Only One Man injured.
One man, a bugler named Painter
was seriously wounded by the acciden
