It was | continued until, after a gradual closing | in, the shore batteries opened fire at a comparatively short range, when the ships were recalled, the object of the expedition having been accomplished and the ideas of the commander-in- | chief carried out, as I understood them, | ¥ | that is, to destroy the enemy's ship- | | ping, but not to charge the fleld bat- | | teries of the forts. No casualties oc- curred on beard any of our vessels. Great care was taken in directing the | fire that as little damage as possible | should be done to the city itself, and so | far as could be observed little if any | | was done. ““All of our vessels were handled with sound discretion and excellent judg-; ment by the several commanding offi- cers, which was to have been expect- ed from the men commanding them. “The Spanish loss is believed to have been in the neighborhood of 100 dead. The gunboats destroyed or driven ashore were the Delgado, Guantanamo, Ostralia, Continola and Guardian.” The committee appointed by Admiral Sampson to examine the wreck of the Reina Mercedes reports that the ves- sel can probably be raised and added to the American navy. Her guns have been recovered by the Iowa. General Miles left to-day for Porto Rico. The main body of the fleet lies at Guantanamo. The Brooklyn is the | only ship left at Santiago.

At the first bombardment of Santiago Lieutenant Harrison was in charge of ':fie after nch gun turret on the Oregon.

Spectal Dispatch to The Call. DENVER, July 21.—A special to thel News from Fort Worth, Tex., says: | | The south-bound Santa Fe passenger | | train due here at 10:20 o’clock to-night | | was held up near Saginaw, eight miles | | north of here, by masked men. The| | robbers ordered the engineer to run to| | North Fort Worth, three miles from | the city. | A Sheriff's posse, city police and armed citizens have gone to the scene on a yard engine. A report has reached | here that some seventy-five shots were | | exchanged by the robbers and officers. | | No definite facts can be learned at| | present. [ | FORT WORTH,July 21.—Two menjust | brought in the engine of the held-up | | train. The cab is literally perforated | | with bullets and covered Wwith blood. | | The engineer and fireman are both mis- | sing and are thought to have been | killed. Oneofficerisalsosaidtohavebeen | killed in the melee. The express car was shot full of holes. The robbers failed to get into the safe, the officers | pouring such a hot fire into them. Six men did the work. Two boarded | the engine at Saginaw and covered the | engineer. They made him stop in a| deep cut one and one-half miles north | |of the stockyards. Superintendent | Pendell, who was on the train, and the | crew went forward to see what was the | matter. As they advanced toward the | engine they were greeted with a fusil- | lade from the west bank. The bullets | went over their heads, but perforated | | the engine and express cars. Engineer | | Joe Williams is likely fatally wounded. The fireman cannot be found, but is| thought to be also wounded. While | their companions on the bank were fir- ing, the two robbers on the engine jumped off. The whole party escaped. Nothing was obtained and nobody on the train was injured except those on the engine, CERVERA MAY CONCLUDE TO REMAIN WITH US | | | Rumor That He and His Son Will | Take Up Their Residence at | the Hub. | ANNAPOLIS, July 21.—A well-defined | rumor, which cannot, however, be traced to an authoritative source, was on every- body’s lips here to-day to the effect that | Admiral Cervera had expressed a deter- mination not to return to his native coun- try at the close of hostilitles betweeen the | United States and Spain. It is sald that the admiral has decided to take up his | residence in Boston, whither he will re- pair with his son, Lieutenant Cervera, | who is also a prisoner here, as soon as | peace is declared.

Now it is announced that there will probably be no more races at the Oakley track. Applegate returns from Chicago the direc- tors will méet to consider the advisability of applylng for a recelver. The indebted- ness is mostly due to stockholders who have personaily advanced money. With three tracks and 18 days of racing each season, this part has been overdone dur- ing the past two or three years. The meetings were made shorter this year, but still the sfirmg meeting of only fifteen days at Oakley was unprofitable.

The husband broke out a window and got out, but his wife went back to a far- ther corner of the room, where they had $4000 In greenbacks hidden, to rescue the treasure, and becoming suffocated by the smoke never reached the window again, but fell a victim to the flames. After the | fire had burned itself out the body of the woman was found, burned to a crisp. The husband received his burns in his endeavor to save his wife. e GRAIN THIEF CAPTURED. How the Sutter County Farmers Have Been Robbed. MARYSVILLE, July 2L—For several weeks the farmers of this county. have been bothered by a thief who, under cover of darkness, stole wheat from newly threshed piles in the field in lots ranging form ten to twenty sacks. D. A. Os- trom, Joe Westwood and James Cutts, prominent farmers, are among c.e vie- tims. This evening Sheriff Donahoe of this county and Sheriff Smith of Sutter County landed a man named Bill Hicks in the County Jail here charged with the crime. Grain stolen from a Sutter Coun- ty farm last night was found in his pos- sessfon. He llevs in a cabin two miles east of town on the Browns Valley road. The officers have hopes of locating all the stolen grain. —————————————— ADVERTISEMENTS. R The othe > ) day a New Vorker started across Broad- way. He was s in the heyday of ambitious, vigorous youth. A puft L of wind blew an insignifi- cant, almost | invisible atom of dust in one of his eyes. It blinded him. He clasped his hands over his eyes and staggered on, only to be run down and killed by a cable car. That man’s death was due to an insignificant trifle, an atom of dust that was barely visible under the microscope. Itis thus with health. Men find that they are suffering from a trifling disorder of the digestion. It doesn’t amount to anything, they think, and time is precious. They don’t stop to correct it, but stagger blindly on and are run down in the heyday of ambitious youth by death. Neglected indigestion is the first cause of manner of wasting diseases and all forms of nervous disorders. Dr. Pierce’'s Golden Medical Discovery cures all disorders of the digestion. It invigorates the liver, imparts a keen, hearty appetite and causes the life-giving elements of the food to be perfectly as- similated. It purifies the blood and builds healthy tissue. It is the great blood-maker, flesh-builder, and nerve tonic. It cures consumption, wasting diseases and all disorders of the nerves. “I was a sufferer five or six years from indi, tion,” writes B. F.
