Miles Reports the Capture of Guanica, FIRST PLANS CHANGED BY HIM At Last Moment Determined to Go by the Mona Passage. BASE OF OPERATIONS ae - Gen. Miles’ story of his landing in Porto Rico is contained in the following dispatca: ST. THOMAS, July 26, 1898, 9:35 p.m. Secretary of War, Washington, D. C.: Circumstances were such that I deemed it advisable to take the harbor of Guanica first, fifteen miles west of Ponce, which was successfully accomplished between daylight and 11 o'clock. Spaniards sur- prised. The Gloucester, Commander Wainwright, first entered the harbor; met with slight resistance; fired a few shots. All the transports are now in the harbor and infantry and artillery rapidly going ashore. This ts a well-protected harbor. Water sufficiently deep for all transports and heavy vessels to anehor within two nundred yards of shore. The Spanish flag was lowered and the American fiag raised at 11 o'clock today. Captain Higginson, with his fleet, has rendered able and earnest assistance. Troops in good health and best of spirits. No casualties. (Signed) MILES, Major General Commanding Army. Capt. Higginson’s Report. The Navy Department today bulletined the following dispatch from Capt. Higgin- son of the battle ship Massachusetts, in command of the naval forces with Gen. Miles’ expedition to Porto Rico: “ST. THOMAS, July 26. Received in Wash- ington July 27, 1898, at 1:30 a.m. “Secretary of Navy, Washington, D. C. “Arrived here with Gen. Miles and United States troops today at 9:15 a.m. Landed them safely. There are no batteries out- side. Gloucester entered the harbor, land- ed company of sailors under command of Lieut. Harry P. Huse, U. 8. N., and Lieut. Wood. Dispersed small company of Span- ish soldiers. Hoisted flag. Commend Lieut. Commander Richard Wafnwright and olfi- cers for gallantry in capturing Guanica. Transports discharged without any opposi- tion, assisted by boats of Massachusetts. I have telegraphed Admiral Sampson. (Signed) “HIGGINSON, “Port Guanica, “Porto Rico, July 25, 1898." The news of the landing of General Miles at Guanica, on the southern shore of Porto Rico, came as a genuine surprise to the War Department. It had been all carefully planned that he was to make his landing at another poin:, as remote as possible from the place where he actually landed, so there was little won- der that the officials received the first news of the landing with incredulity. Just why General Miles made this wide departure from the plans of the départmeni is not known, but it is supposed that he gathered some information since he left Siboney that induced him to make the change. The result, however, has been to perplex the department offfelals deeply and to con- siderably derange their carefully prepared program for the remainder of the expedi- tion. It became necessary to intercept the sections of the expedition already at sea heading for certain selected points on the coast of Porto Rico and to advise them of the change in the plans, General Wilson’s brigade is now ap- proaching the island, being due there to- day or tomorrow, and reinforcements will follow at intervals of one or two days un- til the whole force of thirty thousand men is landed, unless events connected with the peace negotiations make it expedient to stop further movements. However, it is a matter for congratulation to the War De- partment that General Miles has managed to set foot on Porto Rico before the iirst overtures for peace, and thus to place the island in the same position as Cats and the Philippines, namely, as territory at least partially in the possession of the United States at the beginning of the ne- gotiations. Best Harbor. Guanica,~ the debarking point of Gen. Miles’ expedition, is the best harbor on the southern coast of Porto Rico, but is the least visited, owing to the swamps and low tracts difficult to cross leading from it to the interior. ‘The south coast abounds in bays and harbors, but Guanica and Ponce are the only ones where vessels of heavy draft can enter by reason of the mangroves and reefs at all other points. Vessels drawing twenty-one feet of water erter there with perfect safety. Its en- trance is one hundred yards wide, it forms a spacious basin, completely land-iocked, and vessels can enter close ashore. Two small hills command the entrance on either side, and had the Spanish mounted a few Pieces of artillery there they could have defied a squadron to force it. The railroad, to seize which the troops were rushed forward, runs from Yauco to Ponce. It follows the southern coast line, and is paralleled by a wagon road through- out its course. At ,times these two run within a few hundred yards of the shore. This road, which is only part of one in- tended ultimately to encircle the whole island, was built to facilitate the mewe- ment of Spanish troops to any part of the island. It is, however, far from comple- tion. From where they strike this railway the troops will be pushed on through Guayan- illa, a place of 60) inhabitants, and then on fourteen miles to the neighborhood of Ponce. Seventy miles away, over the main wagon road of the island, lies San Juan, the point of attack. Along this and the other roads, at intervals of from cight to ten kilometers, the Spanish have been keeping a fort, stone and brick barracks, or large buildings, where the Spanish troops rest when on the march.

It has no military defenxes, but in the hills to the north of the town a se- ries of earth intrenchments laicly have been constructed. West of Ponce, where the railroad and military road touch the shore, earthworks have been constricted. There have been about thirty momntain howitzers in Ponce available for the de fense of the city and railroad, and these may have been augmented by reason of the heralding of the approach of the Amer- ican forces. SUCCESSFUL AFTER A SKIRM No Americans Killed, but Four Span- iards Met Death. (Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press.) GUANICA, Porto Rico, July 2 p.m., via St. Thomas, D. W. L, July 26—The United States military expedition under the command of Major General Nelson A Miles, commanding the army of the United States, which left Guantanamo Bay during the evening of Thursday last, July 21, was landed here successfully today, after a skirmish between a detachment of the Spanish troops and a crew of thirty be- longing to the launch of the auxiliary gun- boat Gloucester. Four of the Spaniards were killed and ne Americans were hurt. The troops were pushed forward promptly in order to capture the railroad leading to Ponce, which is only about ten miles east of this place. From Ponce there is an excellent military road running eighty-five miles north to San Juan. The whole of General Brooke's force, with the New Orleans, Annapolis, Cincinnati, Leyden and Wasp, is expected here with- in twenty-four hours. The ships left Guantanamo Bay on Thursday evening with the M setts, commanded by Captain F. J. Higgin- son, leading. Captain Higgirson was in charge of the naval exnedition, which con- sisted of the Columbia, Dixie, Gloucest>r, and Yale. General Miles was on board the last named vessel. The troops were on board the transports Nueces, Lampasas, Comanche, Rita, Cnion- ist, Stillwater, City of Macon and Special- suddenly achu- streets of Guantca, but the Colt barked to @ purpose, killing four of them By that time the Gloucester had the range of the town and of the blockhousa, and all her guns were spitting fire, the doc- tor and the paymaster helping to serve them. Soon afterward white-coated, galloping cavalrymen wer? teen climbing the hills to the westward, and the foot soldiers were scurrying along the fences from the town. By 9:45, with the exception of a few guer- rilla shots, the town was won and the enemy was driven out of its neighborhood, The Red Cross nurses on the Lampasas and a detachment of regulars were the first to land from the transports. The Landing Effected After Lieut. Huse had captured the place he deployed his small force into the sub- vrbs. But he was soon reinforced by the regulars, who were followed by Company G of the 6th Ilinots, and then by other troops in quick succession. All the boats of the men-of-war and the transports wer? used in the work of landing the troops, each steam launch towing four or five boats loaded to the rails with soldiers, But every- thing progressed in an orderly manner and according to the plans of ¢ Miles. The latter went ashore at about noon, after nd thank stopping to board the Gloucester Lieutenant Commander Wainwright for his gallant action. Gen. Miles said to the correspondent of the Associated Press: “Guanica and Cinga are in the disinfected portion of the island. Matteo, the insurgent leader, lives at Yaut co, a few miles inland. Had we landed at Cape San Juan a line of rifl2 pits might have stopped our advance.” There is no doubt that General Miles’ Plans are being kept absolutely secret The spirits of the troops, men and off- cers, are admirable. The Massachusetts and Illinois contingent, which have been cooped up on board the Yale and Rita for a fortnight, will be delighted to get ashore, and all will be well protected by the artil- lery before a serious advance is begun. Ponce Sure to Fall. anica is the most lovely spot yet occu- pied by our forces. It is the seat of the coffee and sugar industry, and large herds of cattle are pasturing on the meadows, ist. This was the order in which the trans- ports entered the harbor here. The voyage frem Guantanamo Bay to this port was uneventful. Miles’ Changed Plans. At noon yesterday General Miles called for a consultation, announcing that he was determined not to go by San Juan Cape, but by the Mona Passage instead, land here, surprise the Spaniards, and deceive their military authorities. The course was then changed and the Dixie was sent to warn Gereral Brooke at Cape San Juan. Port Guanica has been fully described by Lieut. Whitney of General Miles’ staff, who recently made an adventurous tour of Porto Rico. Ponce, which 1s situated ten or fifteen miles from this port, is to the eastward and a harder place to take. In additton, the water at Pogce is too shallow for the trans- ports to be able to get close in shore. Ponce itself is some little distance from where the troops would have been able to land if that point had been selected for the debarka- tion of the expedition. One advantage of this place is that it is situated close to the railroad connection with Ponce, which pans of* transportation our troops hop ecure today rly this morning the Gloucester, charge of Lieut. Commander Wainwright, steamed into Guanica harbor in order to reconnoiter the place. With the fleet wait- ing outside, the gallant little fighting yacht Gloucester ‘braved the mines which were supposed to be in this harbor and found that there were five fathoms of water close in shore. Guanica bay is a quiet place, surrounded by cultivated lands. In the rear are high mountains and close to tHe beach nestles a Village of about twenty houses. The Spaniards Surprived. The Spaniards were completely taken by surprise. Almost the Grst they knew of the approach of the army of invasion was in the announcement contained in the firing of a gun from the Gleucester, demanding that the Spaniards haul down their flag, which was floating from a flagstaff in front of a blockhouse standing to the east of the village. The first couple of three- pounders were fired into the hills right and left of the bay, purposely avoiding the town lest the projectiles hurt men or children The Gloucester then hove to within about v0 yards of the shore and lowered a launch having on board @ Colt rapid-fire gun and thirty men, under the command of Lieut. Huse, which was sent ashore without en- countering opposition. Quartermaster Beck thereupon told Yeo- man Lacy to haul down the Spanish flag, which was done, and they then raised on the flagstaff the first United States dag to float over Porto Rican soil. Suddenly about thirty Spaniards opened fire with Mauser rifles on the American party. Lieut. Huse and his men responded with great gallantry, the Colt gun doing effective work. Norman, who received Ad- miral Cervera’s surrender, and Wood, a volunteer lieutenant, shared the honors with Lieut. Huse. Almost immediately after the Spaniards fired on the Americans the Gloucester open- ed fire on the enemy with all her three and six pounders which could be brought to bear, shelling the town and also dropping shells into the hills to the west ef Guanica, where a number of Spanish cavalry were to be seen hastening toward the spot where the Americans had landed. Shelied the Town. Lizut. Huse then threw up a little fort, which he named Fort Wainwright, and jJaid barbed wire in the street in front of it in order to repel the expected cavalry attack. The Heutenant also mounted the Colt gun and signaled for reinforcements, which were sent from the Gloucester. The Associated Press dispatch boat Cynthia II was the only boat in the harbor except th: Gloucester. « While the Mausers were peppering all around Lieutenant Commander Wainwright which are bordered by cocoanut palms. Many head of cattle and a large number of horses have been driven into the mountains by their owners. Some of them will be re- captured. Ponce is the second city of the island, has a splendid harbor and will make a good base of operations. There were fifteen large coasters this afternoon in Guanica bay, but only two barges were captured. It is likely that the Spanish garrison from Ponce may try to surprise our people tv night, but it will only be an affair of out- posts. The town of Ponce is sure to fall shortly before the combined attack of our army and navy. The main fighting until San Juan de Porto Rico is reached will be along the line of a splendid military road leading from Ponce to San Juan de Porto Rico. But every precaution will be taken to lessen our casualties, even to the use of the street shields, of which a supply was brought with the expedition. The health of the troops is excellent, ex- cept among the Massachusetts men. They have been packed on the Yale for about fifteen days and thirty cases of typhoid fever have developed among the soldiers.

HAVANA’S TRUTHFUL NEWS. — Says Americans Were Repulsed With Loss at Babia Ho: A copyrighted dispatch by the Associ- ated Press from Havana, dated July 26, says: The following is the official report, made today of the engagement between the Spanish forces and the American ma- rines on Saturday, July 23, near Bahia Honda, sixty-five miles west of Havana, on the north coast of the province of Pinar del Rio: “On July 23 Senor Manzanal, mayor of Bahia Honda, left the town about sunrise, with forces of all arms, proceeding in a northerly direction toward Manimani creek and Gobernadora beach, to the west of the entrance of the bay on which the town of Bahia Honda is situated. It had been ré- ported that American ships had been sent there the day before (Friday). “On arriving, the Spanish forces opencd with artillery and musketry fire, compelling the American ship in the offing to with<! draw, with several losses on board. Of the landing party four were killed, among them a lieutenant, as was ascertained from documents on his person. “Our troops also sank the boat used in the landing. with eight men, and captured one nex Remington, a Bordan and a hun- dred ca tridges.
