DUFFIELD’S FORCE CHECKXED BY THE SWOLLEN RIVER Copyrighted, 1898, by the Associated Press, WITH THE ADVANCE OF THE "THII{TY-THIRD MICHIGAN, in front | of Aguadores, Friday, July 1, noon (by the Associated Press dispatch boat Dandy, via Port Antonio and Kingston, Jamaica, July 2, delayed in transmis- sion).—The American fleet has been | shelling the fort and rifle pits of Aguadores all the morning. The Thirty-third Michigan Volunteers took a train at Juragua In two divisions, the first at 5 a. m.. and the second at 7:15 a. m. The rickety engine ran the six miles in about an hour and stopped a mile and a half from the fort, out of sight. General Duffield, commanding the land forces, signaled to the New York to begin firing at 9:30. The New York and the Suwanee advanced to about 2000 yards distant from tha fort. The Suwanee, with three successive ~wots, knocked the Spanish flag off the fort, wrecked one corner of the structure and shot away the staff. The Cubans and the Thirty-third threw out skirmishers on the hill and shots were exchanged all the morning with the rifle pits. The fort and the blockhouse were both silenced bv the New York, whose secondary battery peppered the ravine, while occasionally deafening roar of her turret guns heard. y in the advance elght compa- | “The Battle of Manila Killed Me, but | Il for several weeks before the fight | by the Woman's | the Rellef. One of the passengers is nies marched up the railroad track and another force went around the beach out of sight of the Spanish forts. Six small shelio were thrown over the heads cf the men too close for comfort and the troops were sent to cover un- der the emnbankment in the raihioad cut. At 2 o'clock this afternoon the cngine was forced to return for water. On the Mrst trip half the command were brought bock and the train returncd for the others. It develops that this attack was merely a diversioa in favor of Generai Lawton’s movement around the right flank. It is impossible to take Aguadores as the river is unfordable and the Spaniards have blown up the fer end of the rallroad bridge.. Only Companles B, D and H took part in the action, owing to 3he lLuited space where the men could be depleyed. The killed thus far were all the vie- tims of the first shells fired by the Spaniards, who had the line of range of the railroad, though the firing was high. The men had just thrown oft their packs when a shell from a three- inch cannon exploded in the ranks of Company L. The killed were: John Franklin of Diamondale, Mich. Ferdinand Seabright. The wounded were: Frank Lawson of Lawson, Mich., left arm fractured. D. A. Stark, Ann Arbor, Mich,, right arm fractured. Clifford H. Curtls of Land Lake.

Gridley have been received here in a letter from Paymaster Galt, who had been assigned to care for the invalid and to bring him home. The letter states that Captain Gridley had been and arose from a sick bed to assume | his dutles on that glorious day. Hei remained on duty continuously, though | suffering from a rupture, which was so | aggravated that frequent hen\orrhuges‘ occurred. After the battle he was ordered home. | The band of the Olympla played “Auld | Lang Syne” as the commeander left his‘ ship, never again to return. | On the Coptic, en route to “okohama, | the ship's surgeon informed him that | the hemorrhages would result in death. | The captain, with unshaken fortitude, | replied: | “The battle of Manila killed me, butl I would do it again if necessary.” Twenty-four hours before death en- | sued he lapsed Into unconsciousness, | after sending loving messages to his wife and children. - ARTILLERY SHAFTER f ASKED FOR HAS NOT | STARTED EVEN YET TR | NEW YORK, July 2—A Washing- | ton special to the Herald says: Al- ports loaded with artillery, Infantry | and horses for the cavalry left Tampa on June 30 information has been re- ceived here to the contrary. Shortly after Major-General Shafter | arrived in Cuba he wired to the Gov- ernment for additional batteries of ar- | tillery. These he considered were nec- essary in the campalgn before Santi- ago. The artillery force at Tanipa, un- | der command: of Brigadler General | Randolph, was supposed to have left for Santiago on June 30, but now It is known it will not leave until some time to-morrow. Only one reglment,! the Illinois, hs as yet left Tampa to | re-enforce General Shafter. | The delay In geti~ the artillery force | cers in Washington to be most unac- countable, It seems, according to a | dispatch received from Tampa, that the delay is partly due to the English | crews on the trarsports. It will now be impossible for this ar- tillery force to reach Santiago before Tuesday of next week. By that time, it Is hoped, Santiago will have fallen. s vg s B HOSPITAL SHIP RELIEF SETS SAIL FOR SANTIAGO NEW YORK, July 2.—The United States hospital ship Relief, fitted out | Relief Association, | sailed from this port for Santiago to- | day.

General Shafter expects to capture Santiago to-day or to-morrow. Caney will be taken with 2000 prison- ers, it is now sure. Our loss is prob- ably close to a thousand. The total proportion of killed is very large, about 25 per cent. g CORBIN HAS NO LATE ADVICES FROM GENERAL SHAFTER WASHINGTON, July 2.—At 11:10 o'clock to-night Adjutant General Cor- bin, in leaving his office for the night, announced that no word had been re- ceived from General Shafter. General Corbin said there should be no concern over the absence of advices from the first expedition to the Philippines, as it might take a week after its arrival at Manila for word to reach the depart- ment.

CHICAGOANS DEPRIVED 8l T OF DAILY NEWSPAPERS | i Proprietors Confident That They Will Triumph Over the Striking Stereotypers. CHICAGO, July 2—None of the English papers were published in Chicago to-day, owing to the strike among the stereotyp- ers. The latter demand the hours of labor and an Increase in wages. It was refused, and as a result, at 8 o'clock last night the stereotypers re- | fused to go to work. The following newspapers have entirely suspended publication, pun(ling a_settle- ment of the issue: Times-Herald, Rec- ord, Tribune, Chronicle, Intef Ocean, Es ¢ning Post, Daily News, Evenlng Jour- nal and Dispatch. "\ Diieting of ihe publishers was held at 11 o'clock this morning to arrange a plan of campalgn, and to provide for the resuming of publication at the earliest moment, and it was announced that no paper could be published to-morrow morning. The publishers are acting to- gether and will do so. Already they have Teceived a large number o. applications from stereotypers in other clties, and it is the general belfef that since only about 200 employes are directly involved, the suspension will not be for long. An m- mediate influx of stereotypers from other cities 13 expected, and has in some meas- ure begun, The intense interest in the battle at Santiago renders the situation a pecullar one, and this fact was undoubt- edly seized upon by the operatives. There is no little public feeling aroused against the operatives because of this phase of the case. MAY REACH VOTE DURING COMING WEEK ‘When the Senate Figures Upon Dis- posing of Hawaiian Annexa- tion Resolution. WASHINGTON, July 2.—There is a prevailing opinion in the Senate that a vote will be reached on the Hawaiian annexation resolutions some time dur- ing the coming week. The opponents of the resolution state that a vote is impossible next week, and say that at the inside limit the debate will run a week from next Wednesday. The contest seems to have settled to this situation: If the friends of annex- ation are able to maintain a quorum until the end of the week it is probable that the opponents will consider fur- ther opposition of a filibustering na- ture useless, and some arrangements for a vote will be reached. The first admission of any kind by the opposi- tion that the end was in sight was a partial assent to the suggestion that a vote might be taken after ten days’ more debate. It has been believed by the opposition that after the appro- priation bills were passed a quorum could not be maintained. These bills are practically out of the way now, as | the deficlency bill will probably pass Tuesday. Next week will determine the staying powers of the annexationists. When it is demonstrated that a quorum will stay, then it is expected the opposition will yield and a vote be taken. HAWAIIAN DEBATE IN THE SENATE Pettigrew Declares the Sugar Trust’s Interest Is With Annexa- tion. WASHINGTON, July 2.—To-day’s ses- sion of the Senate was devoted chiefly to the Hawalian debate, Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota occupying five hours. An effort was made to secure an agree- ment to adjourn untll Wednesday, but Davis, in charge of the resolutions, de- clined to listen to the proposition unle: an agreement to vote next week upon the gave | a reduction in | | resolutions could be entered. | This White, to whom Davis addressed | himself, sald he considered impossible. Turning to the Republican members | constituting the major part of the an- | nexation support, Pettigrew criticized | them for their silence and charged them with being ‘“bulldozed” In keeping their | lips closed when a great question was before the Senate. The administration, he | asserted, had demanded that annexation | | be accomplished, and Senators were so | | under its control that they dared not open their mouths for fear they would cause delay and incur th. President’s displeas- ure. He saild the sugar trust’s interest was with annexation. “We all know what Senators on this floor have been in ihe past,” he declared “friends of the sugar trust, and no tion. of the conferees upon the ~general clency bill, which was adopted without debate. At 5:283 p. m. the Senate adjourned to Monday. FOREST FIRES RAGING NEAR MICHIGAN BAR | | Damage From the Flames Will Reach Wel Into the Thousands of Dollars. SACRAMENTO, July 2.—One of the most serious forest fires that was ever known in that locality swept through the vicinity of Michigan Bar yesterday | afternoon. The 10ss ran up in the nelghborhood of $10,000, while no one can estimate the damage done to the grazing ranges which abound in the territory covered | by: the conflagration. Thousands of cords of wood were destroyed and | miles of fence were reduced to ashes. | Cattle and horses perished in the {flames. Birds and animals in the forest | came in droves to the open and many | of them could not survive the stifling ifumes which sattled over the locality of | the fire in clouds so dense that the rays | of the sun were completel - obscured. The fire is still raging and at last ac- counts had passed into the chaparral of Amador Count - and was making its wa toward Plvmouth. BRAKEMAN KILLED IN A FREIGHT WRECK REDDING, July2.—As theregularnorth- bound freight train was speeding along .near Morley to-day the engine jumped the track and the cars were piled upon it. | Gus Edwards, a brakeman, was killed, and the engineer, the fireman and another brakeman injured, although not seriously. The wrecking train from Dunsmuir and a special from Redding left immediately for the scene to clear away the wreck- age. It is thought that traffic will be delayed at least seven hours. This wreck was the second in two days on the same section of the road. In both cases the engine left the rails. N S o GENERAL DEFICIENCY BILL. WASHINGTON, July 2.—The conferees on the general deficiency bill reached an agreement to-day on everything except the Pacific rallroads amendment. Chair- man Cannon had promised a vote in the House on this matter before an agree- ment was made. The principal items of amendment which remain in the bill are: The Canadian Commission; relating to the compensation of gaugers of spirits; re- lating to the government of soldiers’ homes; to pay forest inspectors $100,000; payment of boards of townsite entries in Oklahoma. g All Senate amendments for the war and navy are retained in the bfll; also all certified claims. The Senate amendment appropriating $145,000 for the purchase of land adjacent to and dredging the entrance of Pearl Harbor was eliminated. The im- pression is that the Pacific railroads amendment will he agreed to in the House which, with the adoption of the conference report, would pass the bill. NORMAY, SCHOOL CHANGES. SAN JOSE, July 2.—The trustees of the State Normal School, at the quarterly meeting to-day, decided’to add a kinder- garten department to the institution, and elected Miss Meredyth Woodward of the Chicago Kindergarten College as director of the department. Miss Kate Cozzens and H. H. Howe, teachers of mathematics, were not re- elected to the faculty. The resignation of Miss Sarah E.

BIG DEALS iN PROSPECT. MEANING OF THE COMING OF OFFICIALS. Belief That the Oregon Short Line and Navigation Company G Road Will Be Absorbed.: Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. DEL MONTE, July 2—The Union Pacific Railroad is destined to become one of the greatest in the West in the very near future. The board of man- agement that took control after the termination of the series of receiver- ships through which the road passed last year is a virile one, and a policy of aggression will be pursued until the company is its former self, with, even an accretion of additional strength in the way of new properties. The visit of the Union Pacific officials to this coast is full of import. Start- ing from Omaha the party, which com- prised E. H. Harriman, chairman of the executive committee; E. Dickin- son, general manager; J. B. Berry, chief engineer; President H. G. Burt, General Passenger Agent Lomax and Freight Traffic Manager Munroe, pro- ceeded along the Union Pacific and Oregon Short Line to Portland and thence to Del Monte. Messrs. Lomax and Munroe left the party at Oakland and went to San Francisco to transact business with the Southern Pacific concerning their departments. The trip from Omaha to Portland was fraught with business of great railroad importance. inspection of the Oregon Short and the Oregon Railroad and Naviga- tion Company line was made. The presence of E. H. Harriman in the party is significant. Mr. Harriman is a man of wealth and represents large New York interests. To him falls the formation of combinations among to or connected with the Union Pacific in any way. President Burt, though strong in the not formulated any definite plan to con- trol the Oregon Navigation Railroad | and the Oregon Short Line, admits that arrangements have been perfected tending to a strong alliance between {the Unlon Pacific and those lines. The present tour of the Union Pacifi¢c mag- nates has been productive of this alli- | ance, which in fact is of more conse- quence than the mere formation of an alllance. It foreshadows the resump- tion of old conditions. The Union Pa- | cific is moving outward for other prop- erties, and everything that can be ac- complished in the way of railroad ag- grandizement by the officials now in charge will be done. From the present outlook the Mon- tana Union line will soon be a branch that by November of this year the lat- ter line will have in its control the most two desirable properties of the North- west, the Oregon Short Line and- the Oregon Navigation and Railway Com- pany line. The railroad magnates at Del Monte assert that the business of the trip was consummated when Portland was reached. Fror. that place the journey through California was one solely of pleasure. They will Francisco on Monday morning. E. H. Harriman, chairman of the executive committee of the Union Pacific, said to-night: “Our trip to San Francisco is one of | pleasure, with an undercurrent of busi- | ness. The Union Pacific owns one-ha the stock of the Occidental and Oriental Steamship Company, and while in San of the Occidental and Oriental.” The Southern Pacific and the Union Pacific divide the stock of the Occiden- tal and Oriental Steamship lines between them, and thus the two big railroad companies of the West will be brought together in a conference. Mr. Harri- | man continued: “Of course we will lock out for all our interests with connecting lines. As the Union Pacific has large coast inter- ests it is probable that an annual trip will be made to San Francisco on a tour of inspection.” It is rumored the Union Pacific will combine the freight and passenger agencies in one of the cities on the coast in order to retrench. This is in consonance with the spirit of retrench- ment concerning unnecessary expenses that the Union Pacific intends to follow out in the future. Hurst Park Club Races.
