“There is no possible doubt that the

There were men on board who nre

had blankets and rations for the blue
coats if any of them survive. A heavy

as a coffee bean to divide among the
whole command this morning. The men
of Bacotn's command were taken out
in a condition that is a disgrace to
a militia sergeant, were he responsi

a useless sacrifice. Had the proper force

The fighting commenced yesterday TO
miles from Walker. The soldiers. 100
strong .under the command nf General
John M. Karon and Major Wilkinson,
had arrived there Tuesday evening,
and at 4:30 yesterday moving they
went on hoard boat and were
carried to the point named, where a
landing was made w.lth considerable
difficulty, a gale of wind having stirred
up a pretty lively sea. The landing
waa effected at about * O'clock. Scouts
were hurried through the hushes In ev
ery direction, and for three hours no
trace of the Indians could lie found.
Bvery precaution agalrut ambush had
been taken. Finally at about 4:TO u ctn k
the soldiers were drawn up In an open

preparations were abo-ut to Iregln for

The soldiers w*ero still In line, though
ihe coffee making had commenced. Su
ddenly a shot was tired from the house
of Bog-Ah-Mah-Oe-Hhlg, the Indian
who has been the head and center of
this whole difficulty. Fix-Marshal Kd
Harris.a Walker haifbreed.'.vas struck,
his arm being broken. This shot seem

tame from every direction ami~three
men were dropped and were carried to
the rear. 'Hie soldiers, who are vete
rans. not along of the Santiago battle
field, but many of an Indian skimish.
knew what to do, and at the first shot
all found shelter and awaited another
volley to tell them where to shoot.
Attempted Rush.
General Bacon and Major Wilkinson
steadied their men with encouraging
words, and with a second volley the In
dians attempted a rush on the soldiers.
The rattling volley from the regulars
that met the oncoming reds stopped
the rush and drove back the Indians,
although half a dozen cf them were
dropped hy the soldiers’ fire. The fire
from the pillagers then became more
scattering and the soldiers made a fine
charge and drove them back,though the
firing’ continued. The steamers in
which the soldiers had come, as well
as these used by the newspaper corre

toe bookkeeper for French A Ward,
j woollen merchants, of 95 Franklin
street, walked out of the firm s office,
! taking with him the assistant book
keeper, Henry Kevlin, Jr., and neither I
came hark. The Arm waited for two j
or three days and then made an Inves- I
ligation and learned that Kevlin ami i
the bookkeeper had opened an account j
with the Jersey City Title Guaiantee I
company a; the expense of toe Arm.
The Arm learned that their bookkeeper
and assistant bookkeeper had been i
taking chet ks that eamc in. indorsing
them with the firm’s name and then |
depositing the ehecks lo their private |
account In Jersey City. Indictment*
for grand larceny and forgery follow- j
ed, but Hie bookkeeper and assistant
had disappeared.
Yesterday morning (he assistant j
bookkeeper, Karlin, walked Into the
firm’s offices drunk. He said lhat bis
conscience troubled him so I hut be
could not sleep and be wanted the firm
to forgive him i for hlB past acts. He j
said that be would make restitution if :
he could, but that he bad spent hiß j
last (lime for a glass of whiskey. He
was turned over to the police end com
mitted to the Tombs, being too drunk
to enter a plea to the Indictment
against him.
Kevlin, when seen in the Tombs,
said that he end the bookkeeper had
run away in March, 1893, to escape ar
rest. He said lhat the bookkeeper had
concocted the scheme to rob the firm
and, bad carried off the bulk of the
money. The amount stolen was about
SII,OOO.
“After we skipped out,” said Kevlin,
"we took the money and went to New
Orleans, where we read the account of
our disappearance in the New York
newspapers. The bookkeeper had left
his wife in Jersey City with bis moth
er. We heard that the New York po
lice were on oun tracks, so we decided
to go to Mexicoj We lived In Mexico
about three yeaTs, and found It much
cheaper to live there than up here.
The bookkeeper was stuck on horse
racing and spent,a great deaj of money
In gambling games. Finding our
money all gene we managed to scrape
up enough to come back to New York,
and, the bookkeeper is now in this city.
