THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1896. ROUTED MY THE ARMY OF GOMEL One Theusand Spaniards Fall in the Battle of Najasa. CUBAY VALOR TRIUMPHS The £rrival of Re-enforcements S:ives the Regulars From Annihilation. TVO0 DAYS OF HEAVY FIGHTING Tetails of a Crushing Defeat Which General Weyler Reported as a Victory. HAVANA, Cusa, June 17 (via Tampa, Fla.,, June 1¢ The event of the week has been Gomez's Puerto Principe. The details thus far are meager, the best report received here up to the present time being from the cor- respondent of La Discussion, which is re- garded as the best informed independent paper in Havana. He says General Jiminiz Castellanos left Puerto Principe on the 8th inst. with 2114 men, 342 horses and five mounted pieces of artillery. On the 9th they encamped at 8 cattle ranch called Saratoga, where, about 4 p. ar., the attack commenced by a harge of 1000 rebel cavalrymen with ma- chetes. From that moment until the morning of the 11th the insurgents con- tinued harassing the troops, killing and wounding many. The story of General Castellanos, who commanded the Spaniaras, is that the Cuban charges were repelled either by ar- tillery fire or by forming hollow squares, which the Spaniards consider unbreak- able. Still Castellanos confesses that there were moments of great danger, and only by displaying the greatest valor could the Spaniards succeed in repelling the attacks of the enemy. He admits that the num- ber of wounded Spanish troops obliged him to erect his camp hospital in the farmhouse of the ranch, a brick structure which was so riddled with bullets ihat some of the wounded men were struck after being placed inside. Castellanos also acknowiedges that Gen- eral Godoy’s arrival was very opportune, since the forty-two hours’ fight had ex- sted his treops. In view of the loss inflicted on the forces Generals Godoy and Castellanos decided to return to the city t pursuing the enemy, who bad al- naugurated their retreat on Godoy's roach. La Discussion correspondent, es that the Spanish troops fired and 30 shells and the 00 shots. He figures the rebel from 400 to 500 and tie Spaniards’ 85, of whom only 4 were killed and the sges rest wounded, including two officers. He conciudes his story by simply announcing the arrival of both columns in Puerto cive without stating in what condi- ti they entered the city; whether all their commanding officers of hizh or low rank returned or who were missing. This the Bpanish side of the fight, which is rne out by the official report. m other sources, incomplete and Jacking important details, it is snown that Gomez had only 1800 men. General Cas- lanos’ forces amounted to 3500 men. Gomez, knowing of his rival's approach, positions, placed the men in convenient ividing his forces in small groups of 300 As soon as the Spaniards were y encamped in the ranch, pre- for the mnext dsy’s attack on strongbold at N ddenly made his appearance and ed their positions simultaneously on . Taken unawares and completely sur- rounded, all they could do was to defend ther es from the continued chas which, with ruarvelous military precis were kept up night and day without af- fording the Spaniards a moment’s rest. Thanks to General Godoy's timely ar- rival with 2500 men, Castellanos was saved from complete defeat. It is said that if Godoy had delayed his méarch six hours longer Castellanns would have surren- dered, as he was already too weak to stand ting much longer. he actual losses on both sides have not been ascertained yet. It is only known that the Spaniards brought with them 320 wounded from the field of action, and if any were left behind them it is not known. Report hasit that the total Span- ish loss in killed, wounded and missing was over a thousand. The sanitary condition of the island is getting worse every day. Reports are coming in from every town and citz re- counting ravages of yellow fever, small- pox and other diseases. Advices from Manzanillo. province of Santiago de Cuba, show that numerous parties of rebels belonging to the com- mands of Rabi and Jose Maceo, are con- centrating in the vicinity of that city. Every precaution is being taken by the 8panish commander there to prevent or repulse’an attack on that city. TELEGRAPHIC DECISION, Use of Official Vocabulary for Code Mes- sages Not Compulsory. BUDA-PESTH, HuNGARY, June 19.—The Internatignal Telegraph Convention sit- ting here has takena up the question of the compulsory use of the official vocabulary for code messages.

Six Shinglers Are Suspefied for Working for Less Than Union Rates. At the meeting of the Laboz Council last evening a resolution was submitted by T. F. Burns ceusuring the present method in vogue at the Labor Bureau of compelling applicants for positions to enter by the rear door, while empldyers are permitted to goin through the front entrance on Sutter street.

Y., asking that the “Bakers’ Union No. 51, now a member of the San Francisco Labor Conncil, be sus- pended from that body until they signify their willingness to reaffiliate with the in- ternational organization.”” The letter states that this matter was called to their notice by Union 24 of | this City, which had been ordered tc join the council, but stated their inability todo so while No, 51, already suspended from the International Bakers, was al- lowed within the ranks of the council.

Shortly before midnight the police were notitied that a man had been shot on North ‘Alameda street close to Naud's warehouse. The patrol wagon was hurried to the scene_and Whitz was found lying un- conscious in a pool of blood. A large hole in the left side, just below and back of the heart, showed where the bullet had en- tered, while on the right side was another hole through which the ball had escaped. White was hurried to the Re< ceiving Hospital, bui died in a short while. Neither the identity of the murderer nor any cause for the crime can be learned now. A. Davis says that he was passing along Alameda street and saw a woman whose hair was badly disheveled being led from the warehouse by two men.
