GUNS USED BY SOLDIERS. Descriptions of the Krag-Jorgensen and the Lee Rifles. From the New York Tribune. Since 1890 the regulation rifle of the Unit- ed States army, supplanting the former Wezpon, the Springfield rifle, has been the Krag-Jorgensen magazine rifle. It was adopted upon the recommendation of a beard composed of Lieut. Cols. R. H. Hull and J. P. Farley, Maj. H. D. Freeman and Capts. S. E. Blount and George S. Ander- son. The result of one of the tests in com- Petition with other weapons follows: Fcr accurate aim the Lee showed 49 sho: in two minutes, the Krag-Jorgensen 32, the Springfield No. 1 36 and the Springfield No. 2 25. In the firing at will for one minute the results were as follows: Lee, 28; Krag- Jorgensen, 28; Springfield No. 1, 24; and Springfield No. 2, 17 shots. Upon the result of the tests, approved by center and Col. Miles held the left. The plan of battle was for Captain Allyn Capron’s battery of the Ist Aruilery, which held a position in the center above Gen. Ludlow, to shell the fort near the town. for Gen. Chafiee to close in as soon as the artillery had reduced the fort and driven the Spaniards toward Santiago, Gen. Lud- low to lay in the road below the hill on which Captain Capron’s battery was sta- tioned and swing in on Gen. Chaffee’s left, while Col. Miles’ brigade was to keep close to Gen. Ladlow’s mght and by a simul- taneous movement sweep the Spaniards in toward Caney. Orders.for Battle. Gen. Lawton, who personally directed the operations of his division, left his camp on the road from Siboney to Santiago at 4 a.m and at 5 o'clock was with Captain Capron’s battery on the hill above Caney. Orders were given that the battle shoutd begin from the center unless Gen. Chaffee, who was nearest to the enemy, should find himself attacked first. The action opened at 6:45 with a shot from the second section of Captain Ca- pron’s battery. It struck close to the stone fort near Caney. Another shot hit the fort fairly. The Spaniards gave up the idea of holding the stone fort proper after it was struck the first time, and the entire garrison ran down the hilPtoward the town, ‘the covered way in front of the fort, how- ever, was held by the Spanish troops, who maintained an obstinate fire upon our men, who were advancing slowly through the bush and groves, only firing an occasional shot. Captain Capron’s battery opened on the enemy at once and tore the ground up with shelis, sending clouds of dirt high into the air. he battery also sent a number of shells entirely through the fort, tearing down large sections of the walls. ‘This fine marksmanship was repeated several times, the battery stopping the fire of the Span- ish soldiers, who had opened repeatedly from the covered way pits. By § o'clock Gen. Chaffee’s brigade was pressing in toward the town and the firing at intervals was very warm. It was very difficult to see anything of the battle, ow- ing to the rolling nature of the ground and the dense vegetation that obscured the view in almost every direction made it im- possible to see far. An Obstinate Defense. The firing at times was very heavy dur- ing the morning, but the Spaniards in the covered way made a most obstinate de- fense, and refused to yield an inch. Time and again the shells from Capt. Capron’s battery drove them to cover, but as soon as bis fire ceased they were up and at it again. Despite the heavy firing of the American troops they were able to make but little apparent progress during the morning, al- though eventually they stead!ly drew in and enclosed the town on all sides. At noon it became evident that the fire from the covered way could not be stopped by the artillery alone, and that no perma- nent advance could be made until the place Was taken, and Gen. Lawtcn decided to capture it by assault. Acordingly, he sent @ Messenger to Gen. Chaffee with instruc- « how much the government has pail | Caney. Gen. Ludlow’s division was in the | xcept at close quarters, and no skipper | tained is mad cnough to attempt to make his way in by night. It was usual to He off for daylight, and in the event of two or more thus waiting all kinds of tricks were re- sorted to in crder to get to the entrance first, since only one could safely pass in at a time, through the narrow channel, 180 yards ‘wide, beneath the frowning walis of Morro. Pedrodela Rosca, as far back as 1630, built this fortress. Adjoining the Morro was a small fortification resembling a star in shape and known at La Betteria de la Estrella, while on the mouniain op- posite La Socana Castle, which w not until recently of much consequence as a defense. Before one reaches Cayo Smith, little island once held by the British, used by the residents of Santlago in ‘properous timés as a watering place, two more bat- teries were mounted on the east side of the channel. Perched on the shore of a tiny bay under the guns of the forts was the cable hut of the three companies French, Cuba Submarine and West India and Panama—represented in Santiago. On a point further down the harbor, where it is necessary for vessels to make a sharp curve, a tug sometimes being ut push around the ship's bow, was the Punta Gorda battery. After passing this spot it is somewhat easier sailing. The bay opens to a width of two miles, and the remainder of the six miles, which is the distance from end to end, can be performed at a speed faster than the slow and cauttous movement nec- essary to vass the tortuous channel and avoid the shoals. Just at the entrance to the bay is a small island known as Is!a de Ratoneo (the Isle of Rats), on which some time ago was a building used as a powder magazine, where the explosives since util- ized in mining the harbor and its ap- proaches were stored. It seems improba- ble, however, that any quantity of explo- sives would be there now. There were no forts on tha western side of the harbor, but nearly opposite the city is the coal depot and a convalescent hospital. To the east 1s a modern fort of masonry, Punta Blanca, and at spots in the city, like the market place, commanding the harbor, guns were mounted. The city is built on a hill, and presents a picturesque appearance from the harbor. On a close inspection, however, thc build- ings do not realize the expectations one might have formed, being far inferior, architesturally and ‘otherwise to those of Havana, while the streets and sanitary conditions generally are wretched. Mountains surround tke city on three sides, those to the westward affording a magnificent base of attack, but the diffi- culties of transporting artillery were im- merse. What roads there are have been allowed to fall into shocking disrepair, and the troops encounter no ordinary hardships in making a descent upon the city. There is a wharf at Baiquiri, a few miles west of Santiago, where the iron ore is loaded and where the American troops made the land- ing. This might be a point suited for mak- ing an effective landing, and the railroad, being clese at hand, could be put to good use. If the harbor has been forced, the bat- teries silenced and fleet defeated, the cap- ture of the city will be a matter attended with slight trouble. —- Sweet Child.
