PRESIDENT EVIDENTLY IS
STRENGTHENING OUR FORCE
General Satisfaction Is Expressed
at the Sending Of Secretaries
Taft and Bacon to Cuba.

Havana, Sept. 15.-The government
forces have won a victory over the
rebels at a point close to Havana.
General Rodriguez, with 400 rural
guardsmen, attacked the rebels under
General Del Castillo and Colonels AS
bert and Acosta, thousand strong, at
Wajay, twelve miles south of Havana,
and after a stubborn fight the rebels
were dispersed. Eight of their num-
ber were killed and twenty-three we're
wounded. OF the guardsmen one was
killed and thirteen were wounded.
General Rodriguez returned to Ha-
vana this morning. There is consid-
cradle speculation as to why the enc
my was not pursued. Another ac-
count says that General Rodriguez
with a force of a thousand men en-
countered Generals Castillo and AS
bert with about an equal force last
night near Wajay. The government
claims that the insurgents were dis
persed while the rebel accounts say
the government forces were driven
back.
Heavy fighting is reported north of
Ell Cano, ten miles southwest of Ha-
vana.
