Our'Loss in Two Battles Estimated at 800
—Spanlsh Loss About 3,500 Killed and
Wounded—How the Americans Cap-
tured Every Outpost of the Enemy Af-
ter Desperate Fighting -- Splendid
Charge at San Juan.
San Juan‘ Hill, Overlooking Santiago
de Cuba, July 5.—Fulier and more'ac-
curate details of the two days’ fight at
Santiago last Friday and Saturday
show that the American loss in killed
and wounded was about 800, and that
the Spanish loss was 3,500 killed and
wounded, more than. four times the
amount of our loss. Inc-h by inch the
Americahs forced their way in the face
of Spanish shells and bullets hntil they
had captured every outpost around
Santiago, and had taken by one of the
fiercest charges in history the forts of;
San Juan, which the Spanish believed
to be impregnable.
When the firing ceased last Saturday
afternoon our batteries looked down
on the town of‘Santiag-o from all sides
and the Americans were stopping to
take breath.
Exactly a. week after the‘ battle of
Sevi-lla, in which the Rough Riders
took part, Sh'after’s men were ready to
attack the Spaniards about Santiago.
For a. clear understanding of the fight—
ing last Friday and Saturday it must
be remembered that the city of Santia-
go is at the head of the bay, six miles
from the mouth of the harbdr. The
city is surrounded on all sides by high
mountains, which rise abruptly from
t’hewwaté‘r. Tlgs motintains stand in
ridges which run parallel with the
coast. The city lies between the first
and second ridges. Directly south of
Santiago, on the coast, two and a. half
mileseast of the entrance of the har-
bor, is 'AguadOres.
San Juan, the strongest of Santiago‘s
Olltposts, lies southeast of the city on a,
high hill top. General Shaffer believed
that it would be best to take Santiago
by siege, but lest his troops might be
come weakened by the climate, he yiel-
ded Ito arguments in favor of attacking
the city from all sides.
Everything was in readiness for the
fighting when the sun rose on Friday
morning. There were three main lines
of attack. The first forces were direct—
ed northeast of the city toward El Ca-
ney, under General Lawton. The sec~
ond line of attack was against San
Juan by the forces under Gen. YVhee-
‘ler, with Sumner in actual command,
because VVhe-eler was ill. The third set
of troops was under General Duffield,
who was directed to keep close to the
seaside and under the protection ,of
the fleet and ,in conjunction With the
Michigan volunteers to march against
Aguadlores. The Seventy-first New
York and Colonel Wheeler's Massachu-
setts volunteers were held in reserve.
Captain Capron’s battery (Lawton’s
forces), which was planted on a bluff
a mile and a half from E1 Carley, op-
ened the firing at 6 o’clock on Friday
morning. No answer was made to the
first shot and two more were carefully
trained on E1 Carley. It looked as
though 'the Spaniards were not going
to fight. A thousand Cubans under
Garcia, believing that the Spanish were
retreating, set out to capture them.
Some of the Spaniards had started to
run away from El Cane-y. When the
Cubans met 'them there was a sharp
engagement, in which many Spaniards
were wounded and nineteen Cubans
were wounded. .. »
The Spanish then tied back to El
Caney and took their wounded with
them. Not until the twenty-seventh
shot from Caphorn‘s battery was fired
was there any return from a Spanish
battery. Then. a Spanish shell whistled
through the air near Capron’s battery.
Several other shells, from the same
battery followed quickly and wounded
thirteen Cubans‘an-d eighteen Americ
cans. After an hour of hot fighting on
both sides the firing ceased.
Before» Caprcn's battery stopped fir—
ing, Grimes’s battery (General Whee-
ler’s forces), stationed at El Pozo, op-
ened up and began firing across the
gulch from the hill below San Juan.
After the tenth she-t the Spmish re-
plied. Tlhe Spaniards invariably shot
too high and their shells did no dam—
age at that time. The battery was si—
lenced for the time being and no Span-
iards were in sight. Then began the
real fighting. The First and Tenth
regiments and the. Rough Riders were
ordered to make a. detour and take the
hill. ~A1though no Spaniards were in
sight there were plenty of them con-
cealed.
Lieutenant Colonel Roosevelt rode
at the head of his troops until his horse
was shot from under him, and then,»
with sword in hand, be rushed along the
lines on foot, ordering “Forward,
charge!” to the men, who were at
first somewhat confused at the way in
which their ranks were being depleted
by the fire from the Mauser rifles.
The Spaniard-s were really in strong
intrenc‘hmentls, but their inability to
stop the heroic rush of the Americans
up xthe hill so frightened them that in
their ‘haste they expose-'1 themselves.
Then the Tenth cavalry picked them
off lyiked‘ucks. Our men never stopped
until they gained the top of the hill.
The Spaniard-s, who had been doing
deadly work, were still in a position to
create great havoc. but thevd'arlng of
the Americans so firmed them that they
took to flight. Ar the ran our men
brought a large number of them down.
The Spanish trenchts were found
full of dead soldiers, but all of the
wounded had run with the fleeing Spa-
niard-s. In their rush more than half
of the Rough thers were wounded
more or less dangerously.
The experience of the W’heelergorces
in taking San Juan was almost iden-
tical with that of Ilawton's forces in
taking El Caney. Elf-hen Capron’s bat-
tery resumed its firing on the stone
fort at El Caney, the 7th, 17th and 12th
infantry, under General Chaffce, start-
ed out to Mike the port. The Spaniards
resorted to the old trick of putting their
hits or. sticks and then firing from
some other quarter. As they were us-
ing smokeless powder it was a. long-
time before our troops could tell from
the location of the enemy so great t .. t
the men were ordered to lie down.
en then many were hit by the Span-
iards, who, being above them, could
. see clearly Where 'onr men lay. When
3 the Spanish pests were finally discov—
ered oun men began to turn the tables
on them and then made a. dash up the _
l hill right int-o their mtrenchments.
Again the Spanish were so demoral-
: ized by the daring of the Americans
i that they fled in disorder. Every street
leading out of the town of El Oaney
was filled with ~fleeing soldiers. The
trenches were filled with the dead. One
hundred and twenty-five othhe fleeing
Spaniards were captured. The 71st
of New York did good 'work by follow—
ing up General Lawton’s men and ‘hold-
ing all the ground gained.
The 71st lost seventy men killed and
l wounded in taking a. hill surrounded by
l a half mile of open country, in which
. they had not the slightest protection
from the Spaniards. But with Capt.
Rafferty’s company in the lead the
men never stopped until they had rou-
ted the Spaniards from the blockhouse
fort. Somtimes they had Ito crawl but
they never retreated. When the 7lst
was carrying away some of its wound—
ed under the protection of the Rod
l Cross, the Spaniards violated the rules
of civilized warfare by firing on our
men from a distance. Fortunately they
did little damage.
Lieut. Maxwell, from his balloon 200
feet high, was able~lto direct General
Ha-wkins’s men, including the 3rd and
6th cavalry and the 13th and 16th in-
fantry in taking San Juan.
Gen. Dufi‘leld and his men carried out
their part in aiding the fleet to capture
Aguadores. The Suwanee opened the
fight, which never cga‘sed until our flag
floated gm' Aguadores. -
The fighting wa‘s resumed on Satur-
day by a desperate attempt of the
Spaniards to recapture San Juan hill,
but in that attempt their loss was so
great that they were forced to retreat
back behind the walls of the city of
Santiago.
