BY June ~ the whole American force

June our army was face to face with

few soldiers In history have fought
more CALAMITY than did the Spanish
defenders Of Ell Caney. Overwhelm-

the infinitely larger Yankee force at

opened the attack. By 8 o'clock the
infantry vanguard was within almost
a quarter mile of the village and ex.
posed to a merciless fusillade from the
blockhouse and fort.
The Spaniards were forced back
from their outer intrenchments into
the fort. Then late IN the afternoon
general charge carried the fort by
storm. There were few prisoners to
show for the nine hour battle and
6nal victory. for only a handful Of El
Caney's defenders remained alive to
fall into the eonQuerers' hands. The
American losses were 80 killed aud
855 wounded.
