Charged Aero»» an Open Urm Field Direct t'pou the Fort—OfHcem 'l’ell How the ltuuka Suffered—Spanish Mag C aptured and Torn I p. [Copyright, 1899. by the Author.] ;1 i r a (; Han Juan that makes this last story the one to hold first place in the popular mind. Creelman claimed that he got the Spanish flag which had floated over the blockhouse at El Caney and sent it to bis newspaper. On the other hand, the soldiers who captured the fort and the flag stated to the writer that they tore the rag into bite and kept them as souvenirs. San Jnan's flag story is to the effect that the little advance guard of the assault, consisting of Lieutenant Thomas M. Anderson and a dozen men of the Thirteenth infantry, surrounded the blockhouse, and Private Agnew of the party climbed to the roof and brought down the flag. Agnew’s com rades soon gathered around him to in spect the trophy, and some of the Sixth cavalry, who had rushed to the point, joined the group. While this was going on two of the Thirteenth men were hit by Spanish bullets while they had hold of the staff, or fly. Taking this as an evil omen, the men slashed the silk into small pieces and carried them away, thus completely destroying the banner which, intact, would have been an American war trophy without a rival. This account of the San Juan flag was given me at Camp Wikoff by the participants in the affair, among them Lieutenant Anderson. It lends a halo of romance to the career of a gallant regiment in the Spanish war, but is by no means the sole claim of the Thir teenth and its officers and men to a place among crack fighting troops at San Juan hill. Neither is the fact that the Thirteenth lost 29 per cent of its officers and nearly 24 per cent of its men in the charge, a principal claim to distinction. The regiment fought where scars were passing around and got more of them than any regiment in Shafter's corps, with a single exception, and it fought to be the first where the hated Spanish flag was flying, and the proof that it deserved the trophy is found in the story of its fighting. The Thirteenth was in the lead of Wikoff's brigade when it reached San Juan river to charge the hill as ordered by General Kent, the division com mander. Wikoff and Worth were shot in the bed of the stream just after they had placed the regiment in position to storm the hill in front of the blockhouse. Again and again has the tale been re hearsed about the crowded roadway to San Juan ford, but every regiment had its own experience, and here is the ac count of Captain J. B. Goe of the Thir teenth. Speaking of the march to the ford before lining up for the charge, he said: “The fire was so terrible that it might well have scared more seasoned troops than the Seventy-first, for it could be likened to nothing else than a slaughterhouse. The Thirteenth, how ever. did not waver or flinch, severe as the fire was. though men were dropping on all sides. On, on we went, indiffer ent to the bullets which were whirling death to our quarter. I wondered as we passed over the prostrate forms of the Seven ty-first. Would we ever come to the end of the obstruction ? It seemed half a mile, but we did, and gained the low er ford and made a large field, where we formed our line previous to charging the hilL The accuracy of the Spanish fire and the dangers we had to face can be illustrated by just one fact When we reached tho ford, my company was 66 strong, but when the crest was reached, jnst half an hour afterward, it numbered only 27 Such the decimation wrought by Mauser bullets.’' Before proceeding with the narrative of the charge it is well to have clearly in mind the ground over which the reg iment moved- Lieutenant Ferguson ■aid: “Our regiment charged across a fiat grass field 700 yards to the foot of a steep hill nearly 160 feet high, on the top of which was the blockhouse. ” Lieutenant Anderson said; “We lost three-fourths of our men as we croesed the level field. I was on the firing line and told the men to advance rapidly, and we got 100 yards ahead. We were the only troops to cross that open field. ’’ Captain Goe described the oharge as follows: “When the line was formed, the regiment charged over the plain to the base of San Juan bill. Every few steps as the men went forward their progress was impeded by the dense un dergrowth and barbed wire fences. We charged, though we could not rush on account of the obstacles. Notwithstand ing the fact that we cleared the way by shooting sharpshooters in the trees, still our men dropped as we pressed forward. “To particularize, the first companies to gain the eminence were G, A and H. The Spanish flag was captured by Pri vate Agnew of Company H. I am utter ly unable to give an idea of the enthu siasm of the troops when the men reached the summit and victory had crowned the American arms. The men broke into wild cheers, danced and flung up their hands, and when the American flag was given to the breeze howled ; themselves hoarse ” The intrepidity of Spanish sharp (Continued on seventh column.)

Captain Goe says: “An idea of the rapidity with which officers were shot may be formed from the fact that we had four brigade commanders hit with in half an boor, one after another being disabht by bnllets which were aimed from the Manser rides by sharpshooters who were stationed in the trees. This galling fire was enongh to make the stoutest hearts falter, yet I didn’t see a single officer or man in the fighting line show the slightest exhibition of fear or timidity." Lieutenant Anderson said: “Spanish sharpshooter# were inside onr lines—we think they were in the trees behind the open field around the creeks —and shot onr officers.” Lieutenant Malone of this regiment was on the brigade staff and said that Colonel Wikoff had just posted the Thirteenth wben he was shot by a eharpshooter. Captain Saffold led a company of this regiment and in his story dwelt npon instances of individual pluck. Musician Devine, he said, of his company went in with only a revolver, bnt when the first man was hit Devine took his rifle and went on with the fighting line. Private Middleton of Captain Saffold's company had his gun broken by a bullet at the foot of the hill, bnt he hunted np another and went in on the charge. He was among the first at the top of the hill. “San Jmin was an individual soldier fight, ” said Captain Saffold. “The men took the elevations with the sights of their rifles and fired accurately. We were checked under the bench: then onr men let loose. The Spaniards who fired on the captors of their flag were sheltered under the Jted Cross at a bnilding near Santiago. 'Our people respected the Red Cross, but they used it as cover.” Lieutenant Ferguson of Company A of this-regiment gave those little details of the charge which go to prove that the day was a day of fight from start to finish. “Of course,” said he, “we had to wait in the field two or three times under a rain of bnllets. By the time we were within 80 or 40 feet of the Spanish rifle pits they broke and ran. My company was the last one sent in on the firing line and was the first to reach the center of the position. “I saw six of our officers on the hill when the Spaniards broke and ran. Lieutenants Gose. Anderson and Bash were on the left of the trenches and several yards higher up the hill. Saffold and I were together, with a mere hand ful of our men, who soon came up. Captain Goe and Lieutenant Sample also joined Saffold and me, and we col lected onr companies at the top of the hill as rapidly as we could. The Span iards attempted to recapture the posi- UKBTKOYING THE JONAH, tion. and the fight kept up till dark, when the firing ceased. We were brought under fire about 9:80 and lay waiting nntil 12 :30, with now and then a man killed or officer hit by sharp shooters. “I had command of Company A dur ing the fight. Captain Guthrie com manded the battalion. Lieutenant Slater and Captain Fornance were killed, Colo nel Worth was shot through the lung and Major Ellis, Captain Cavanagh and Captain Guthrie were severely, but not seriously, wounded. The total in killed and wounded in the Thirteenth alone is 107 out of 426 present in the regiment that morning. “Captain Guthrie showed the most superb cpnrage and coolness In expos ing himself. He was shot in the knes while giving me orders. We were stand ing about 12 feet apart when he sud denly wheeled around. He said, ‘Oh, it's only a scratch!’ and as he tried to stand on his leg he dropped. I left him where he fell, knowing that others would take care of him, and went on with my company through the grass to the Spanish fort which is called Fort Ban Juan. “I reached the foot of the elope and got nearly to the top when our men cheered and yelled. ‘They are running!' 1 can’t tell what put it into my mind, jut I pulled out my watch, and it was about 1 o’clock. The afternoon was a trying one, and what was left of Com pany A was under fire until dark.” According to Lieutenant Anderson there were Spanish trenches on the slope in front of the blockhouse. He said that these could be seen from far ther down the slope, bnt when his men got to them they were filled with Span ish dead. Shortly before this Parker’s Gatlings had swept the trenches with bullets right and left. Parker belonged to the Thirteenth, and had arranged with one of the officers to signal him during the infantry action when to stop filing. This signal was given, he says, after the Spanish began to run and when the Thirteenth was nearing the crest in pursuit. Captain Fornance, who was killed after the blockhouse fell, was the fourth commander of the Thirteenth who fell that day George L. Kilmer. In Diarrhoea Dr, M.
