Washington, July I.—The navy de partment posted the following bulletin Monday: “Commodore Watson sails to-day in (he Newark to join Sampson, when he will take under his command an armored squadron with cruisers and proceed at once off the Spanish coast.” The navy department has posted the following bulletin showing Com medo.e Wnt-on’s squadron. It is Ceror Sifter Sigsbee. Cbm Spaniards Ikillcd. Washington, June 28.—The navy deparlment has posted the following bulletin : Sampson reports that the Yale ar rived yc terday and landtd Its troops. Sigsbee repor’s that while off San Juan he was attacked by an unpro tected cruiser and the Spanish torpedo boat destroyer Terror. The Terror made a dash, which was awaited by the St. Paul. The St Paul Latest News From Shatter’s Army. Washington, June 2!).—The opinion prevails here that within a day or two at most, Gen. Shatter will have begun his attack upon the city of Santiago proper. The important event of the day was the general’s announcement that he ; could take the city in forty-eight hours, but at "considerable loss. Taken in connection with the announcement ! contained in another dispatch that he ! is going to attack without waiting for j reinforcements, it will be seen that j the officials have ground for their ex pectation that the first genuine en gagement of the war will begin in a very short time. Numerically, the opposing armies are not very bifferent, the estimate of the Spanish forces being placed at 114,000 men, thoroughly entrenched i and behind barbed wire fences and blockhouses, against about 18,000 men | under Shafter. aided by about 4,0(0 Cubans. One of the gravest elements in the j problem, however, is the Spanish war ships, for unless Gen. Shafter is mate | rially assisted by Admiral Sampson, who might engage the full attention of the Spanish ships, their fire upon the American advance forces would be very bard to meet. The military authorities here say that Gen. Linares has shown great ! military- tact in slowly retiring during I the 'last few clays, as he has gradually , drawn our troops away from the pro tection of the American ships and ! brought them close to the fire of the Spanish ships in Santiago harbor. For this reason it was with relief that the announcement was received that Shafter had succeeded in landing 1 dl of his artillery, including his sie;e train, for unless Admiral Sampson can be relied on to force his way into the halbor and attack the Spanish shij s these, siege guns planted on bights commanding the bay will be the main o dance of (jen. Shafter in offsetting the presencs of the Ironclads. ' i official dispatch says 8,000 Span ish -oidiers are coming from Manza to reinforce Linares at f’antiag<. j There is another element to which designated as the Eastern squadron and is as follows : Flagship Newark, battleships lowa and Oregon, cruisers Yosemite, Yan kee and Dixie and the colliers Zendia, Abarenda and Alexander. The start will be made at once ofl Santiago. Commodore Watson will be instructed to bombard the coast cites ol Spain and to capture or des troy every Spanish gunboat found on the coast. i hit the Terror three times, killing or.o ’ officer and two men and wounding : seveial others. The Terror dropped back under the | cover of the fortifications and was i towed in the harbor in a sinking con dition. | Later a cruiser and a gun bout start ed out hut remained undey the protec lion of the forts. i Not a single American was hurt. the military authorities arc giving careful attention. One man intrench ed behind earthworks or rifle pits is worth three men in the open, It is said that the battles of Cliancellors viile and Spottsylvania aflorded the most direct proof on this point. According to the reports from the scene of battle, artillery can he em ployed to a much better advantage in the attack than infantry, hence it is believed that Gen. Shafter may con clude to await the arrival of the artil lerits now hastening to his relief. OASTOniA. Bears the a The Kind You Have Always Bought Heats the Kli ntlike. Mr. A C.
