A copyrighted Associated Press dispatch from Cape Haytien, Haiti, yesterday says: It is reported here that a great battle has taken place at Caimanera, in the bay of Guantanamo. At 5:30 yesterday morning (Tuesday) five ships of the American squad- ron opened a heavy bombardment of the fortifications of the town. There was a perfect hail of boms in the bay, striking and demolisiing many houses beyond the fortitications. On the Spanish side the artillery replied vigorously, maintaining tor some time a stout resistance. ‘ihe rire from the war- ships, however, never slackened for an i stant. Jt was regular and carefully direct- ed, and a great majority of the shots prov- ed’ effective. ‘The Spaniards were forced to abandoa their positions on the shore and retreat tw the town of Caimanera proper. It is sup- posed that later they fled trom that posi- tion also, with the inhabitants. Infcrmation has reached here that the Spanish at Santiago and Caimanera are preparing for a final desperate struggle, and are determined to resist the assauils of the Americans to the last extremity. The commander of the district issued orders yesterday to burn Caimanera be- fore yielding It into the hands of the Amer- cans. e+ -_____ CALIFORNIA IS PATRIOTIC.

Sepater Harris’ s Most Youth: A good deal has been said about the youth of some of the volunteer soldiers who responded to the calls of the F dent for troops for the war with Spain. Several of these volunteers have been referred to as the youngest of these 0) men, but the distinction of being the t youthful of this great army probably belongs to Craig Harris, the son of Senator Harris of Kansas. Young Harris t from the first an immense interest in the war, and when the call for volunteers was issued he promptly enlisted in the Ist District of Columbia Regiment, hough only having reached his fifteenth year last February. When hearing that his son had enlisted Senator Harris was inclined to interfere on to Be the account of the boy's youth, but the young soldier w: anxious to go te the war that the fath him h his way.
