Tinge the men spent the night under their blankets, without even the protection of ''dog” tents. They cooked their own rations, which they carried with them in haver sacks. The regular army officers who 1 planned the battle made the regulations just as warlike as possible. 1 The Fifth Georgia made up tile main 1 fighting machine of the Red force, a third of the Red army being held in I reserve for the final attack. The Geor -1 gia cavalry occupied a conspicuous place in the defensive Brown army, en gaging the Reds until the Brown in fantry could make strategic moves, 1 Today's part of the battle was spec • taetilar. The Fifth Georgia and First I Florida carried off the honors. Battle ' was more strategic than otherwise and brought out considerable headwork on the part of officers. Several were injured by close shots. 1 Corporal Dawson, of Pensacola, who ' was shot through the right shoulder, is ' in the hospital. t About one-fourth of the men fell out 1 and straggled. The regulars stood the > strain no better than the state troops. » The officers are loud in their praise of . the militiamen. The weather is the I' hottest experienced at Anniston in sev eral years, making the work of the troops even more commendable.

But the American authotities have thus far de clined to pay so great a bribe and th. ’ rebels, helpless themselves throughout • Mexico, except in .Tamez, and .Sono: a. are holding XVylie Smith as a last chance of extracting money for th-it cause and for their personal di.-si).a tions. * The b’ibe was demanded by the reb els in Jaurez as soon ns the American 1 authorities learned that Smith had been ■ taken there from Chihuahua. : There is now watching Smith a Pinkerton detective from Houston, w. > has orders to nab him immediately ’ upon his releas’. His communication to the local Pinkerton agvncv does not show that Smith i- in parti: ula ly bad health.
