At 4 o‘clock Friday morning hundâ€" reds of bugles rang out the reveille,and before the sun had risen the great line was completed. _ To the extreme: left was General Dufficld, with the Thirtyâ€" Third Michigan, his command baving reached the Aguadores Brigade by train. Next, to the northeast, was Gen. Kent‘s division, a milé and a half from the sea and beld as a reserve force. The centre of the line was held by a cavalry division, whicb, until General Wheeler arrived at nuon, was commanded by Gen. Sumner. Owing to Gen. Young‘s illness,Col. Woods,of the Rough Ridars, commanded his brigade, which consisted of the First regulars, the First volunt eers, and the Tenth regulars and one battalion of the Ninth regular cavalry, all dismounted, with the exception of two troops on the extreme right, under Gens. Lawton and Chaffee, fally five miles from the sea. It bad been arranged that Gen. Dof:â€" field should make a feint of attacking Aguadores in order to draw attention from the main movement, and at 5 o‘â€" clock Gen. Lawton‘s troops moved forâ€" ward, led by a battery of the First Arâ€" tillery, under command of Capt. Allyn Capron. Every man in the army carâ€" ried three days‘ rations and ammunition to match ; and every one knew he was not expected to return to camp until Santiaco had fallen. Gen. Lawton‘s division opened fire with a thirteen pound shot, quickly followed by others, the infantry openâ€" ing fire immediately afterward. At 6.40 a.m. Gen.Garcia advanced rapidly through the brush in the valley, meetâ€" ing with no opposition,and Gen Lawton advanced along the north slope, the inâ€" fantry and artillery firing heavily.Ciapb Grimes‘ guns had just galloped on to the plateau in grand style and opened fire. The battle began just at daylight, on Friday at a point about eight miles from Juaragua and four miles northeast of the outer fortifications of Sauntiago. The general order for an advance was issued by General Shafter av dark last night and by midnight Tnursday every man in the army knew that a desperate struggle would come with the dawn. The news put the troops in a fever of excitement, and the night was spent in cheering and singing, the popular strains being "There‘il be a hot time in Santiâ€" ago to.morrow." Every Two Years The first shot was fired from the batâ€" tery at 6 40 by Capb. Capron, whose son, Capt Allyn K. Capron, of the Rough Riders, was killed in the battle at Sevilla. _ Tho shot was directed at Caney, where the Spaniards were in force, and it fell in the beart of the town. _ The firing continued twenty minutes without reeponse. The town was surrounded by rough earthworks, and lines of barbed wire. § After the enemy had been driven from El Paso, twentyâ€"one shots were ficred by Capt.Grimes and Capt.Capron, from that position into the outer fortiâ€" fications of Sintiago before a response came. _ When it did come, however, is came with unexpected accuracy, the With the exception of about 1000 troops, who were guarding Da‘quiri and Jaragua, the entire army was engaged together with 4000 of Gen. Garcia‘s Cuban troops. A Common Mistake 15,768,000 Revolutions The Spanish strongholds of Caney and El Paso have fallen,and the fort of Aquadores,just east of Morro Oastle,on the coast, bas been blown to ruins by the guns of the flaet. BERLIN Jaragus, Cubs, July 1stâ€"4 pm.â€" The battle of Santiago raged all day Friday, and at 4 o‘clock, 15000 Amerâ€" ican troops woere thundering at the outer fortifications of Santiago. General Sbafter‘s army fought its way across two and a half miles of bitterly contestâ€" ed and strongly fortified country, and the entire line from right to left is withâ€" in gunshot of Santiago town. ) ) a. @RRMWiraWERF ) auso lt on in on n AMERICANS LOSE 1000 KILLED AND WOUNDED Cervera‘s Fleet Captured and Destroyed Fierce Fighting at Santiago City JANSEN BROS.

Sumner had comâ€" manded the contre, owing to Genersal Wheeler‘s illness, but about 11.30 Gen, Wheeler started on the twoâ€"mile journey to the front in an ambulance About half way to the front ho met a uumber of litters bearing the wounded. The veteran, under protest by the surâ€" geons, immediately ordered his horse, and, after personally assisting the wounded into the ambulance, mounted and rode on ward. FIGHTING ON RIGHT FLANK. The hardest fighting of the day seems to have been on the right flink and heavy casualties are reported from there. The advance there was more rapid than at other points on the line, and Gen. Chaffee‘s brigade was the first to cross the little San Juan River close to the line of outer fortifications. Ab 2 o‘clock Carey had not been entered by the American troops, but they had pushed on past it and it wes theirs ab any time they chose to march into it. Most of the Spanish shells went over the hilltop and fell in a ravine beyond. Here several detachments of Cuban tbroops were stationed as reserves and before they could be moved seven inâ€" surgents were seriously wounded and several slightly hurt. At the same time two Americans were killed and nine were wounded. _ The Spaniards used smokeless powder and shot with much more accuracy than during the previous engagement. The wonder is that many more lives were nob lost, as the oppoâ€" sition batteries were less than two miles apart. Col. Wood‘s command behaved with great bravery, firing steady and deadly volleys with the enemy‘s shells screechâ€" ing and bursting over their heads. Twenty minutes of fearfully hot work silenced the Spanish batteries Ten shots were sent into them after they ceased firing,but there was no response and it is presumed that the guns were dismounted or the gurners driven off. Some Fierce Fighting. Away to the lefté Gan. Lawton‘s division with Chaffee‘s men and Capron‘s battery was meantime fighting fiercely with the enemy intrenched in and about Caney. The Spaniards contested every inch of ground bitterly, and fought with unexpected coolness and courage, but the irresistible onward movement of the Americar slowly forced them back upon and bsyond Caney. § About 11 o‘clock the terrible fire from Capt. Capron‘s guns and the rifles of the men broke the Spanish line, and a retreat bogan toward the line of the outer fortifications, The enemy took the trail known as the main Sintiago road, and Capt. Grimes‘ battery imâ€" mediately began pitching shells in ahead of the retreating men, while a detâ€"chment of 2000 Cubans, headed by Garcia, was started to cut off the retreat, A largo detachment of Gen. Kent‘s reserves was sent to aid Gen. Garcia in this work, and fierce fighting ocâ€" curred. Capt. Grimes‘ battery poured a steady fire into the Spaniards to proâ€" tecb Col. Wood‘s advance. The. disâ€" mounted cavalry paused on its way through the tangled grass and underâ€" brush half way down the hillside, selâ€" ecbed a spot to halt, and there opened and maintained for twenty minutes a hot fire. The opposing batteries banged away, Capt. Grimes sending a storm of lead down into the outer fortifications and the Spaniards pounding at the hilltop with vicious persistence. _ The Spanish fought stabbornly throughout, aud their retreat, though steady, was slowly and coolly conductâ€" A Jetachment of 200 Cubans went forward from El Peso, and then Col. Wood with the Rough Riders, the Eirst and Tenth Cavalry, started down the hillsides straight for the enemy‘s fortifications. shots being from three and fiveâ€"inch rapid fire riflss, evidently taken from Admiral Cervera‘s warships and mountâ€" ed behind the fortifications. The Spanish gunners raked the hill on which El Paso stards, and which meantime had been made the headâ€" quarbers of Gon.Sumner and the Ouban (Gens. Garcia, Caségillo,Capote and Rabi. Oos shell struck a large sugar storeâ€" house, on the red, corrugated roof of which stood ten Cubans viewing the fight. The roof fell and all the Cubans were wounded, and three will die. At that hour Gen. Shafter, whose headquarters for the day bad been aboub three miles in the rear, went forward to assume personal command of the operations. Some surpriss is expressed that he did not wait for the siege guns before beginning the final attack,. The siege guns aro still on the beach at Daiquire, and he decided Thursday that they were unnecessary, and decided to strike at once. The Oabans behaved with skill and valor and rendered valuable aid. Gen. Garcia and the other Cuban generals led the troops in person, and showed great coolness in tight places. ROUGH RIDERS AND CAVALRY. CUBANS BEHAVED WELL, Besides capturing El\ Caney and positions near Aguadores the Americans took, after a terrible fight, the hill of San Juso, whichcommands the barracks at Santiago. The soldiers slept on their arms Friday night after fighting from dawn until dark. The most glorious achievement of Friday was the charge up the hill 600 yards from the city by Wood‘s rough riders. The Spanish shells wore pouring down upon them, but they never wavered. Men foll on every side, but they kept steadily on until they captured the Spanish position of S«n Juan, which was supposed to be occuâ€" pied by 1,000 of the 15,000 troops de: fending Santiago. The right wing rested on the fortiâ€" fied town of Ei Caney, to the northâ€" east of Saintiago. The lefb wing cut off and virtually captured Aguadores, on the coast about two and a half miles east of Morro Castle. In the centre the Spanish forts on San J uan hill were occupied, and the Spanish outposts all aloug the line were driven back upon the city itself and their outhworks taken. The fighting began very promptly at daybreak. The conrier first in from the front reported thot the troops were advancing on Santiago on all sides, slowly but surely, and that the Spanâ€" iairds were stubbornly rotiring still closer toward the city. Clarke‘s brigado and the right of Kent‘s division made a gallant charge up the knoll to the north of the exâ€" treme lefb of the Spanish lincs, and book possession of the hacienda in the shelter of an orange grove. This maked the beginning of a magnificent charge through the first line of entrenchments. The cavalry division and Gereral Hawkin‘s brigade charged up the slops against a storm of death. Ib was in the awful charge that the Americans were so badly cut up that they started on & double quick ; but no troops could face such a terrific fire without annibilation, The Americans staggered; they threw themselves on the ground ; again they started ; again they prosâ€" trated themselves ; but, on, on, up, up they went, until with a cheer they sprang over the trenches dividing the sides of the hill checkered with their fallen comrades. There was band toâ€" band fighting here, in which an officer of the 24th was matched by a Spaniard. But the Spaniards could not resist the onset of the United States troops, and broke over the line of knolls on which they were situated. Hundreds of the Spanish lay dead or wounded in the brenches. By Friday night the entire Spanisb army was driven into the city proper. The Americans were in fall possession of the batteries on the hills, and the city seemed to be at their mercy. The guns which were landed from Admiral Cervera‘s ships, as well as the heavier guns on board the vessels, fired shells into the American ranks which inflicted great damage. The losses of the Cabans were proportionately as neavy as those of the Americans. Saturday‘s Fighting. American Armoy Headquarters, near Santiago, July 2.â€"Ths fighting began again on Saturday morning, with the Americans in this positioa : Saturday‘s casualities on the Ameriâ€" can side were much fewer, because the troops had been well entrenched the night before,. The main redoubt was then carried with & rusb. Gen. Shafter ab his headquarters at the second crossing of the Rio Guama had a constant sommunication with the front, The most critical time was after the trenches had been taken when the Am:â€" @rican ammunition ran low. The pack trains loaded with shells were got to the front by Lieubt. Brooks shortly after 3 o‘clock. The fighting about SantiagoSaturday was resuimed in heat that was terrible, the thermometer ranging above one hundred degrees. Many wounded soldiers wore early being taken to the rear, and it seemed evident that the events of the day were to be attended with considerable loss of life. The fighting on the right of the American lines by two o‘clock for some hours was almost as severe as on Friâ€" day when General Lawton was assaultâ€" ing El aney. The Spanish madean attack in force on the American position, pouring in volley after volley with remarkable regularity, _ The return fire of the Americars was effective, and continued strong after the Spanish volleys had become rarer and lees heavy. At 3 p. m. & report that General Lawton, aided by fresher regiments sent bim early in the afternoon, has turned the snemy‘s lefté and has troops already in the city, where almost a handâ€"toâ€"hand encounter is going on in the streets, was recsived, The Americans had the advantage cf the sun in the morning, which shone directly in the enemy‘s faces. . Meanwhile, tho batteries on the hill kept bocming away at the middle of the middle of the enemy‘s line, materâ€" ially aiding the flanking movement. The shelling from the Spanish flset was less active, and apparently gave the American left but little concern, ed. They contested every inch all the way, and foughb with unexpected skill, their officers bandling the troops with bravery and good judgment. FEATURES OF FRIDAY‘s PIGHT. General Shafter‘s army thus on Friâ€" day had its baptism of fire. With desperate courage ib captured the Spanish works before Santiago, and drove the enemy into the streets of the city. The victory was won abt heavy cost in killed and wounded. When the observation balloon was sent up in front of the cavalry it drew the first volley of the Spanish entrenchâ€" ments. Though volley followed volley, the daring officer made & reconnaisance, and got down safely after having obtained complete details of the posi tion of the enemy.

The Spanish admiral is a prisoner of war on the auxiliary gunboat Gloucester (formerly Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan‘s yacht Corsair) and 1,000 to 1,500 other Spanish cfficers and sailors, all who escaped the frightful carnage caused by the shells from the American warships, are also held as prisoners of war by the United States navy. The American victory is complete, and according to the best information obtbained at this time, the American vessels were practically untouched, and only one man was killed, though the ships were subjected to the heavy fire of the Spaniards all the time the battle lasted. . Linares Wounaed, It was dming Friday‘s fighting that General Linares, commander of the Spanish forces about Santiago, was seriously wounded during the fighting, and had to retire. General Linares ha1 thrown himsolf to the forsâ€"front of the battle from the minute the Ameriâ€" can forces, under command of M»jor General Shafter, effected a landing in Oubsa. He wont with his troops to the plateau opposite Altares, and from there witnuessed the landing of General Shafber‘s troops. SPANISH FLEET DESTROYED Surrender Demanded. On Sunday, J uly 3¢d, General Schafâ€" ter demanded the surrender of Santiago. If refused he would bombard the city at 10 o‘clock a.m. Monday morning. The Spanish Commanderâ€"inâ€"chief refused to surrecder. General Scbafter extended the time for the bombardment to begin until Tuesdoy at 10 a.m., at the reqacst of the foreign consuls in the city who said that between 15,000 and 20,000 peop‘e, many of them old, would leave, QUERIN.â€"At Berlin, June 26th, the wife of John Querin, of a daughter.

Eranklin, being greatly disappointed, used his utmost efforts to bring the paâ€" per into contempt, having such effect that after it had been published nine months less than 100 subscribers had been obtained for it, and Franklin manâ€" aged to buy it out for a small considerâ€" ation. Ho expunged the first part of the title, retaining the last part, the ‘‘Pennâ€" sylvania Gazotte,‘‘ and continued it with this name with success. Until Frankâ€" lin‘s appointment as postmaster of Philâ€" adelphia in 1740, however, Bradford‘s Mercury had the largest circulation, but after that Franklin‘s paper had the lead in circulation and influence, and Bradâ€" ford‘s was soon after discontinued. So woe have here practical evidence of Franklin‘s success of & newspaper busiâ€" ness competitor. The Paper From Which the Declaration of Independence Was Read. In the address on "Old Time Nowsâ€" papers and Their Editors‘‘ given by Caleb A. Wall in the Society of Anâ€" tiquity building there was a much more detailed account of the oldost newspapers printed in this country than there was space to print in the report made of the mesting. In the account of pewspapers started in the diferent states, or colonies, it was stated that the Philadelphia American Weekly Mercury, started Dec. 22, 1717, the first newsnaner printed in Pennsylvania, was printed and published by Andrew Brad ford till his death,â€"Nov. 23, 1742, and afterward continued by his widow unâ€" til 1746, and soon after discontinued. In the eulogy on Isaiah Thomas deâ€" livered after his death the following year by Isaac Goodwin, special referâ€" ence was made to this act of Isaiah Thomas by bis eulogist. â€" Worcestet This Andrew Bradford was son of William Bradford, the first printer in Pennsylvania and in New York, and it was for Andrew Bradford that Benjaâ€" min Franklin first worked as printer when he left his brother James in Bosâ€" ton and went to Philadelphia in 1723, at the age of 16, he and his brother having had a falling out. After workâ€" ing a short time for Andrew Bradford, Franklin started a printing office on his own account in Philadelphia with the idea of starting also another newspaper, but bhe was balked by the sudden apâ€" pearance of another newspaper there. Dec. 24, 1728, by Samucl Keimer, called The Universal Instructor In All Arts and Sciences, and Pennsylvania Gazette. To show that the citizens of Worcesâ€" ter appreciated the patriotic ast of Isaiah Thomas in being the first to read the Declaration of Independerce on Massachusetts soil, at the celchration of the Fourth of July in Worcester in 1830, whaen Rejoice Newton presided, with Colonel Isarac Davis and Otis Corâ€" bett as viceo presidents, the oration was by Hon. Peter C. Bacon, and addresses were made by Governor Lincoln and John Davis, and the following toast, proposed by Isaac Goodwin, was drunk with signal enthusiasm, ‘"Our veneraâ€" ble townsman, Isaiah Thomas, Esq., who first promulgated the Declaration of Independence to the inhabitants of this vicinity, from the church and the pross."‘ In 1748 Franklin took in David Hall as partner, who succesded to tho sole management of the paper in 1758, when Franklin was appointed deputy postâ€" master general for the colonies. After Hall‘s death in 1773 the paper passed into the hands of Androw Brown, who changed the name to Philadelphia Gaâ€" zotte, his son and a Samuel Rolf sucâ€" ceeding in the paper. S After some other changes in propriâ€" etorship and managemont, this old paâ€" per, started by Benjamin Franklin in 1729, ceased to exist in 1845, when it was merged in the Philadelphia North American after a life of 116 years. This Ponnsylyania Gazette afterward, in 1772, namod the Philadelphia Gazette, is the paper containing the Declaration of Independence, which was intercepted on its way from Philadelphia to Boston, July 14, 1776, from which Isaiah Thomâ€" as, the founder of the Massachusetts Spy, read that immortal document to his fellow citizens in Worcester, from the porch of the Old South church, the first timo it had been read or proclaimed on Massachusetts or New England soil. It was very nataral that Isaiah Thomâ€" as, who was then postmaster of Worcesâ€" ter by appointment of Benjamin Frinkâ€" lin as postmaster general of the United Colonies, rhould read that @ocument from a paper which had been so long identified with the name of his distinâ€" guished friend and fellow printer, Benâ€" jamin Franklin.
