TERRIBLE ARTILLERY FIRE First Decisive Battle in the Present Nicara- guan Revolution, GOVERNMENT FORCES CUT TO PIECES Alm of the Rebel Guaners Superior to That of Theic Opponents—Details of the Engagement — Loas of Both Sides. [Copyrighted 1893 by James Gordon Bsnnett.| GRENADA, Nicaragua (via Galveston, Tex.), May 24.—[By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald--Special to Tun Brr.)—Addi- tional details of the decisive bat- tle of Barranca Pass, near Masaya, show that it was even more dis- astrous than it w: at first believed to be. Reliable data shows that the gov- ernment’s losses were 155 killed and 267 wounded. This was largely due to the terribly raking fire of the revolutionary artillery which occupled a strong position on Cosotepe hill and threw out murderous mes- sengers with sclentific pracision and deadly effect. The five Krupp guns which formed the government batteries did less effective work against the revolutionary army, although Socosa's artilery was commanded by o French expert. From a hill one mile from Nindiri station the gov- ernment pieces were trained upon the insurgents, but their aim was imperfect and the death list of the revolutionists is not nearly so great as that of the government army,although the government batteries dis- charged 240 shells and the field pieces of the insurgents revlied with only sixty shots. The revolutionists outfought the govern- ment troops. The hali-paid and undisci- plined soldiers were in no sense a match for the well paid and well fed troops who have Joined the revolution, When the Battle Bogun. The fighting which resulted so disastrously to Socosa's government began at 10 o'clock on the morning of May 19. Supported by its batteries north of Nindiri station the gov- ernment column adyanced toward the posi- tion held by the revolutionists. As the troops advanced the insurgent bat- tery on Cosotepe hill opened fire. Their well trained field pieces played havoc with the attacking columns and caused them to turn back. The column was hurriedly re- formed and advanced again in' the face of the deadly fire from the batteries on Cosotepe hill. The Krupp guns of Socosa's gave many a roar, tbut did no damage to the insurgent forces. Every effort to silence the guns on Cosotepe hill was useless, while the insurgent batteries were raking the government ranks with dis- tressing effect. The advance of their infantry was checked and the effort to carry the heights was finally abandoned. Carrying their wounded with them, Socosa's !mors were ually forced to leave the fleld. When the ficht had ended they filled three cars with their wounded soldiers and sent them back to Managua. Another Engagement. None of the revolutionists wero injured. The real battle, however, was fought on May 20. It began with heavy cannonading at 8 o'clock in the morning. As on the first day, the firlng from the government batteries ended mainly in noise and had no effect whatever upon the revolutionists. The infantry column was ordered to move for- ward at 9 o'clock, and_ from that time on the fighting was fast and furious. Thirteen hundred government troops attempted 1o fight their way out to the position held by the insurgents, who numbered a little more than 1,000 and were commanded by General Barranca, but they attempted what was almost imn- possible to accomplish, The revolutionists held 80 strong a position in the mountain pass that a muoh larger attacking force would have been required to dislodge them, even if they had not been backed by artil- lery and supported by their fiell picces on Cosotepe hill ; however, they made 1t 80 un- comfortable for the attacking army that the enemy was forced to retire with loss. + On the Field of Battle. Scores of men fell in the battle field. Meanwhile a force of 800 revolutionists had been sent around Cosotepe hill under the command of General Catarina. They were confronted by 450 of Bacajos' soldiers under General Masateppe Franklln, The government joined the other forces and all united in another attack upon the in- nfl'venu' mam position from the Nindiri side. This movement was no mcre effective than the former ones. The attack was vigorously made, but after an hour's fighting the assaulting columns were forced to retreat and Gen- eral Baranca's reuolutionary army was in complete possession of the Tisma road. The fleeing revolutionists were hotly pursued and some of them were = captured, Occasional firing was continued until the middle of the after- noon, when the entire government a: fell back in confusion, plundering the village of Nindiri as they Although the revolucionists lost only twelve killed and eight wounded, nearly all of then there officers, oneof them being Julio Gomez, a leading revolutionist, who belongs to a prominent family. This loss was umnql. however, compared with the 155 govern- ment soldiers killed and 287 wounded, in ad- dition to the large number of prisoners cap- tured. Two of the goverment generals wero killed. Socosa Ready to Quit, The result of the §fight has left the govern- ment in a distressing possivion. Its decrees are ineffective because it is now practically without the power to enforce them. A locomotive on the Nicaragua railway was yesterday brought over to the revolutionists by its engineer and fire- man and many government troops have de- serted to join the ranks of the insurgents, Disorganization and demoralization prevails in the government ranks. In Monagua it is reported 200 govern- ment soldiers were about to desert and go over to the revolutionists when their plans were revealed and ' the men imprisoned. Presigent Socosa is reported to fled to Corinto and is ready to £0 on board a steamer and leave the country at the moment he is convinced he can not win, His government is in a desperate situation and has now little chance to re- gain what it has lost. The absence of a United States war ship in the Nicaraguan waters is needed for the protection of American inter- ests. The government issued a de- cree some days ago prohibiting the steamers of the Pacific mail and Cosmos lines from landing at San Juan de Sur. It is believed they will be bombarded by government ofticers at Corinto and that all merchandise consigned to persous who sympatnise with the revolutionists will confiscated. Should this be their &utwu in ordering vessels to land only at Corinto the need of a war ship can be readily seen, Rebels Contident of Success, As each day passes the rebels become more counfident of success. Unlike so many others who have overthrown those in power they do mnot harbor feelings of revenge and do not propose to retaliate on the conquered in any unseemly manner, Orders have been issued to the soldiers not to maltreat the prisoners, and the cniefs of the rebel army never forget to remind their saldiers that they are fighting for a princi- pal and not for revenge. Moreover every courtesy is shown to those who fall into the hands of the rebels and the press has been urgent in its demands that the remains of those slain in battle shall be treated with all possible respect. The papers which support the rebels are indeed entirely patriotic and charitable in tone. Their descriptions of the various engage- ments are apparently written by persons who regret that it ever ould have become ~ necessary for Nica. lq‘ullu to kill one another in battle. hero is, however, at the same time a steadfast exhortation to all friends of good govern- ment not to lay down their arms until polit- ical corruption hus been expelled from the country not to forget that though force of arms has become necessary, no deeds should be pepetrated which are ugainst the DAILY BEF. THURSDA MAY 25 amn‘- of patriotism and the national gt CELEBRATED AN ADVANCE. Omaha Commercial Hduss Displays Tm- proved Facilitles at n Grand Reception. Success is the magnetthaddraws human- ity. v This was fully demonstrated at the festival of unexampled prosperity that characterized Browning. King & Co.'s opening last evening. It marked a point of achievement in the his- tory of a great mercantile Nouse—one that has for years basked in thesmiles of popu- lar favor. . A food of light that fa rivaled the fablea radiance ot Alafdldf's lamp, soft strains of musie, well spocked tables laden with the apparel 'of mankind, a display pro- fuse of palms and ferns that Seemed to wave a welcoma to the surging orowd —these filled the scene at Browning, King & Co.'s brilliant reception last o\'mlnfi. It seemed as though all Omaha were there, with his wife and daughters. The immense crowd came from tho parlors of the rich and the garrets of the poor. It was a moving, breathing panorama of life in all its stages— a grand march of citizenship from dimple- cheeked babyhocd to wrinkled infirmity, The seven ages ot man, and all ages of woman, were represented. Feminine heauty was plethoric. The gentle dignity of woman- hood, from the debutante to the silvery- haired grandmother, was in the throng. The lawn tennis young man touched elbows with the gum-chewing girl. The sturdy workingman looked askance at the willowy dude. It was a pretty picture from the book of life—a tribute of the citizenty in Wrmlsr interest and hearty good will toward anager Wilcox and the firm which he so ably represents. It was a good natured, jostling crowd. Corns had no safeguard. Tempers were left at home, . . Long before the doors were opened at 7 o'clock, hundreds of people clamored at the enwrance on Douglas street. When the doors swung open there was a grand rush that taxed the utmost patience of Sergeant Shoup and Officers Mitchell and Salter. The Musical Union orchestra struck up an en- trancing tune. Music had its charms—so had the artistic Columbian souvenirs which were freely given and thankfully received. The one, grand, continual round of mirrors was especially pleasing to the femininity fore- gathered there. “After a moment's roflec- tion” the ladies would pass on. The vanity bump in the cranium of mankind—or is it in the russet-shod pedalities?’—also asserted itself bofore the ubiquitous mirrovs. No goods were sold last evening. 1t is es- timated that fully 8,000 people attendod the opening. Twelvo thousand Souvenirs were given away. Many diplomatic persons got in line the second time and thus got two souvenirs. The interior of the establishment on the first and second floors presented evidence of extensive improvements. Over #8500 has boen expended in enlavging and remodeling these two floors. The first floor is occupied by gents' furnishing goods, hats and cloth- ing. The second floor is devoted to Juvenile 0ods and the third floor to overcoats. Jnder the new improvements the firm has much more space in the various departments mentioned, to say nothiug of the artistic and extensive remodeling. Browning, King & Co. first opened their Omaha branch in 1888, It is one of the twelve similar establishments located at various commercial centers in the United States. The combined business in these es- tablishments averages $5,000,000 annually, The number of employes of the firm in the United States aggregates 7,000 people. The firm was founeed by Henry W. King in 1854. R. S. Wilcox, the manager, of the Omaha house, is a good citizen, whose popularity has, in a large degree, béen Tesponsiblo for the success of the firm hero. The Omaha branch has a large staff of faithful employes, consisting of Charles Shireman. W. R. Good- man, J. C. Patton, Nat Bryson, C. F. Bloom- berg, Theodore Goodman, Ed'Wilcox, Al Ben- son, . F. Child, W. V. s, Frod Schei. der, A. W. Whitacre, J. E. Hinoe, Frank Adams, Phil Lenberg, 'Will Deane, James Cunningham, S. P. Carlson; Miss Folard, A. Templeton, J. Barnett, Charles Potter, Noah Ramsey and George Baker, A feature of the display last evening was the artistic arrangement- of- the show win- dows and the uniform courteous attention bestowed upon overy visitor by the manager aund his employes, Last evening's opening was the second celebration af enlarged facili- ties to meet an increased public ‘patronage, It was another milestone in the wonderful progress of an enterprising firm that’ has each year increased in magnitude and im. portance. — GERMAN JOURNALISTS COMING. Notable Newspaper Men of tho Fatherland Wil Arrive in Omuha Saturday. Omaha is to be honored Saturday by the visit of a number of representative news. paper people from Berlin, Leipsic, Budapest, Strasburg and Vienna, who are returning from the World's fair ana are en- route to the Pacific coast. The Burlington will carry the party from Chicago to Denver, arriving here Saturday evening at 9:50 and leaving at 4:45. The party is composed of Richard Bong, Modern Art, Berlin; Julius Loewy, Illustrated Extra News,, Vienna; A, V. Maszak, Daily Magyar, Budipest; Baul Levy, Daily Fre)smfier.

Bergian, Daily Deutscher Zeitung, Vienns, the party being under the direction of Paul Loewy. Preparations are being made for receiving the distinguished strangers in un_appropri- ate and befitting manner. Yesterday after- noon Kdward Schmeiser and C. C. Shaeffer of the German Tribune of this city called upon Mayor Bemis and a conference was had relative to according s welcome to the editors. Mayor Bemis made many valuable sug- gestions that will be taken advantage of by the two gentlemen who are most active in making the necessary preparations. The in- tention now is to give them a drive about the city. Dinner wiil be served at Germania hall, and from there they will be taken to the council chamber, where an in- formal reception will be held, speechmaking indulged in by the mayor and others, and a royal Omaha welcome extended, On this point Mayor Bemis is an enthus ast, and he believes it the duty of the citi- zens to bestir themsclves and accord a proper reception to all parties of World's fair visitors that come this way. He be- lioves a very favorable impression of the city will thus be secured, which in the long run will be of vast benefit to its good name and future growth. Especially is this true of the Faber pushers from the Fatherland, who will spread the name of Omaha across the scas, and the reception they receive and the treatment accorded will have much to do with the excellence of the mention they might make of their visit here.

Mr. Harney said last night to a Bep re- porter: ““The paper will be the national sil- ver organ and will advocate the free coin- age of silver at the ratio of 16 to)1. Both silver and paper money are now credit money and {‘nld is our only money of redemption. ‘This has created a shrinkage of all values. Our money should be sufficient in both quan- tity and quality. We need both gold and silver as money of redemption. There was no trouble with silver n 1878, when it was do- monetized. It was not a 67-cent dollar then, but was a 102-cent dollar. All we askisa fair hearing. We believe there will be no prosperity generally for this country or the world until there is more money of intrinsie value.

Attendance of Visitors to the White City on the Inerense. Cmrcaco, 111, May 94.—~Peaple outside of Chicagoare beginning to realize thatthe great World's Columblan exposition is open and business at the ticket offices is bogin- ning to boom. Since the opening day almost the first three-quarters of a million people paid for admission to the “White City,” and the at- tendance appears to be on a steady increase. The first of the European excursions to the exposition have arrived in the city—one German and one French. The French party numbers twenty-eight people. An effort was made at the meeting of the National commission to bring up the Sunday opening question. Commissioner Hundley claims that when the commission substituted the minority of the judiciary committee fa- voring an open fair on Sunday for the major- ity report and then refused to adopt the minority report, the majority report must come up for action. A heated discussion on I,nom[;o nt, lasting for nearly an hour, fol- lowed and then the matter was made a spec- 1al order for tomorrow. The formal opening of the Electricity bullding, which was announced for next Sat- urday night, will not be given until Thurs- day of next week. At that time nearly all the exhibitors will be ready. The royal standard doated over the dome of the Canadian building today, while ou the various projections were to ba seen the tlags of Canada, Jamaica, Ceylon, New South Wales and others of the colonies. An excel lent program has been arranged under tho direction of Senator Perley, commissioner of the northwest territories of Canada, und with Senator Morton, Canadian superin- tendent of liberal avts, and it was made up of music of a patriotic order, speeches and an abundant supply of refreshments. Maine's Bullding Dedicated. The day is bright and beautiful, all that could be wished by visi- tors to the World's fair, and largo vum- bers took advantage of 1t to enter through the wates into the white city. One of the features of the day was the dedication o the Maine State building. Hon. H. C. Burleigh, president of the Maine board of managers, made the address delivering the building to the state, and Governor Cleaves accepted it in turn, dedicating it to the uses of the people. The British flag was displayed with more than usual prominence today on the British, Canadian and Indian buildings at the World's fair, in honor of Queen Victoria's birthday. The oceasion will be celebrated further this evening with’ a banquet at the Virginia hotel. Reigned Because of Sunday Opening. Immediately on the assembling of the national World's r commission today Commissioner Masey of Del- aware tendered his resignation ase a mem- ber of the judiciary committee. The cause of the resignation was the rejection of the majority roport of the committee on tne World’s fair Sunday closing by the national commission yesterday, After a long dis- cussion the commission postponed action on Masey's resignation until tomorrow. e FILCHED FOR1Y FROM HIM. He Went Riding to a Road House With “Ladies of the Soiled Dress.” M. E. Green of Minuneapolis, reported to the police last night that he hua been robbed by a hackmanof $40. According to his story Green has been on a drunk for about ~three days and last night started in a hack for a road house, accompanied by two frail females from one of the well known resorts on the Crow. When the party returned Green, during a lucid interval, found himself short in cash aud at once caused the arrest of C. Demos, the hackman who drovehim out. As Green has stated that he would not prosacute it is hardly probable that he really thinks tho hackman robbed him, Detective Savage left last night for St. Louis to bring back the two messenger boys who a few duys ago stole 50 from the American District Telegraph company and ran away. e Towa Funeral Directors, Font Dopa, Ia., May 24.—(Special Tele- gram to Tre Bee.]—The annual meeting of the fowa State Funeral Directors assoois tion opened today at Webster City.
