Manague, Nicaragua, Aug. 15.-The
Insurgents, under command of Gener-
ais Mena and Zeledon, resumed their
attack ON Managua but after a desper-
ate fight were again repulsed. This
is the fourth day of the battle which
Is being waged about the Nicaraguan
capital. Before they were repealed the
rebels succeeded in forcing their way
close to the houses of the city.
The American sailors guarding the
United States legation and the presi-
Dental palace, who, because of their
workmanship had been especially Sc
lected from the American detachments
stationed here to protect the lives and
property of American citizens, direct
ed fire too hot for the attackers
and the rebels were driven back. The
bombardment of the city by the insur-
gents, however, continued all night
Presidents Palace Hit.
The presidents palace was hit twice
and three shells narrowly missed strik-
ing the American legation. AS this
dispatch was filled there was lull
in the fighting, the insurgents having
retired to a position short distance
from the city. All Americans and
other foreigners in the city are safe.
An attempt was made Tuesday
night to assassinate the COMMANDMENTS
chief of the government forces, Cen
eral Emilio Chamorro, while he was
walking in the streets.
The deposed secretary of war, Cen
eral Mena, has brought up more heavy
guns from Granada and the fire of the
biggest guns are being deliberately di-
rected on the residences of the city.
Hospitals Filled.
Improvised hospitals are filled with
soldiers and women and children. One
shell hit a hospital Tuesday morning
killing several men. There are many
reports of the killing of women and
children in their homes by the insur
gent shells.
The government has 1000 troops
while the insurgents number some
what less than that. Prisoners cap
tured by General Chamorros state the
insurgents have lost many men since
the fighting began. The casualties or
| the government side also are heavy.
President Diaz seems to have 8
force large enough to repulse the at
tack of the insurgents, but has not an
army sufficiently strong to permit him
to take the initiative. Government of
