Sunday Afternoon.

SHAFTBR.’S BATTLE PLANS

Tho Engagcmtént Sunday “’as Spirited
but Brief. The Shins Began shelling
the Guy at 4.45 P. 11 . The Range Was
10,000 Yards. A Heavy Storm Prevent-

rd the Land Forces from Action and

Interfe ed With the Telephone Lines.

Aguadores, Sunday, via Playa. del
Este, July 1.2.—By preconcerted ar—
rangement with the army, the Ships of
the fleet threw Ishells into Santiago
this afternoon. 'It had been arranged
that there should be a simultaneous
firing by the ships and the land artil-
lery, beginning at 4 o'clock, but a
heavy rain fell which interfered with
the telephone and signal work from
the army lines down to the railroad
bridge at Aguadores and the wigwag
station establish-ed on the beach.

At 4.45 p. m. the rumble of artillery

-on "the American lines was heard, and

the Brooklyn, lying half a mile east
of Aguadores,» a minute later opened
fire with five-inch shells from her port
battery. The Texas, to the westward,
assumed position and was followed by
The firing was at long
intervals and was kept up until the
Brooklyn had plan-ted fifteen five-inch
shells and the Texas seven twelve—inch
and three six—inch shells.

The Indiana. sent a number of eight-
inoh shells over the steep hills and into
the enemy's lines. The firing lasted an
hour. It was impossible to estimate
the results from the sea, as a view
could not be had over the first hill. The
range was north by west, ten thou—
sand yards.

Less than a minute after the Brook-
lyn opened fire a. danger flag, white
above yellow, was raised above Morro
Castle.

Reports have been received here that
the land artillery shelled th; Spanish
entre-nchments for 5( e tim:

“Tashington, July 12.—~These dispat-
ches from General Shafter have been
reccix ed at tl e war department:

Playa del Este, July 11.

Received at 130 a m. The navy
has promised after the bombardment
begins to get in close to the harbor
with some of the boats of light draught
and if the bambardment to-morrow is
not quickly conclusive, they will make
the attempt. As soon as General Hen-
ry’s reinforcements arrive we will sur-
round the town, and can knock it to
pieces with our light guns.

Captain Goodrich of the St. Louis as-
sisted me very ably in disembarking
troops.

Received at 1.53 a. m.: My plans for
to-morrow (Monday) are to keep up
a. bombardment of the trenches ,and
city, and to complete the investment of
the northwest by the troops which have
just arrived at Siboney, one regiment
of which, the First Illinois, has now
reached me. ,

Another dispatch says: “I regret to
repoxt that Captain Row ell of the Sec-
ond infan-tiy was killed late yesterday
afternoon. ”

G

tantry N rt Eng 1ged.

Washington, July Ila-Although sev-
eral dispatches were received at the
war department from General Slzafter
up to 1 o’clock Monday, none of them
gave a positive announcement that the
battle had been resumed. as he intima-
ted it would be in his dispatch received
at 2 a. m. yesterday. The officials at
the war department believe, howeVer,
that the bombardment is on, but they
say they have no official confirmation
to that eect, nor have they had any
dispatches saying that a truce had
been declared until 11 o’clock yester-
day morning.

The dispatches from General Shaf-
ter yesterday were chiefly in regard to
.the formation of our lines aroundSau-
tiago and the plan decided upon be-
tween the army and navy for the bom-
bardment and attack. General Shaf-
ter gives the position of every brigade,
regiment and battery. .The extreme
right of the line rests upon Santiago’s
water works and the left extends to
near the San Juan heights.

If there has been a delay in the bom-
bardment it is chiefly on account of the
president’s distinct order not to let
General Toral and the Spanish army es-
cape from Santiago. It has been evi-
dent that the Spanish general wished
to get his troops out of the city, and
has been asking for delay to further
this plan. The president has ordered
General Shatter not to allow this, and
if the bombardment did not begin at an
early hour yesterday morning it was
because General Shafter has been plac-
ing his army completely ‘around the
city so as to prevent any esmpe.

The plan of battle as arranged is
for both the army and navy to partici-
pate in the attack. General Shatter is
going to use only the artillery and the
heavy batteries. He will reserve the in-
fantry fire until after he has silenced
the Spanish batteries, audit is neces-
sary to make the assault on the city. ‘

The navy will assist the bombard-
ment by shelling the forts at the eu-
trance of the harbor, so as 'to make a
passage for the war vessels to enter
and make a direct attack upon the city.
It is not the intention of Admiral
Sampson to send in his large vessels,
but to make a dash with a couple of
his swift and light draft gunboats or
smaller cruisers, which can run the
mine fields. It is probable that the

Vesuvius may be one of these vessels,

for she can do great work with her
dynamite guns.

The bombardment will be directed
chiefly against the Spanish fortifica-
tions and guns, so as not to damage
the city or set fire to the buildings, for
to do so would be to only add to the
suffering and distress of the refugees
Siboney, who, after the fall of

now at
rthe city, will return to their own
homes. It is General S-hafter’s opin-

ion that when the combined forces of
the armv and navy begin their bom-
ba dmcnt in earnest and the Spanish

find that all points of escape are clos»

ed, they will surrenler, and he will
not be obliged to risk the lives of his
infantry.

There .is a good deal of anxietv ex-
pressed in official circles over the situa-
tion at Santiago, because the dispatches
received yesterday morning giving ac—
count of the battle shows it to have
been more severe and disastrous than
at first thought. The fact that two
officers were killed shows that it must
have been a severe struggle.

 

Washington, D. 0., July 12.-—The war
department is advised of the arrival offs
Santiago yesterday of the auxiliary
cruiser Yale, with General Miles and
his staff: and a portion of Garretso’sn
brigade.

General Miles had a conference with
Admiral Sampson and later conferred
with General Shaft-er by means of the
signal service telephone wires. Gen-
of
General Shafter for the present opera-
tions against Santiago.

News from M'adrid.

Madrid, July 12.-—T.he newspapers of
this city openly discuss lthe imminence
of the ministerial crisis, owing to the
attitude of Senor Gamazo, the minis-
ter of public instruction.

The Official Correspondencia confirms
the report of the cabinet crisis.

The Imparcial says of Sunday’s cab-
i-net meeting:

“We think importance should be at-
tached to the fact that Spain will reap
great advantages in negotiating for
peace before Santiago and Manila, and
perhaps even Porto Rico are captured,
as should the Americans occupy these
places their terms will naturally be
harder.”

The Imparci'al then adds:

‘ “It is most probable that the govern-
ment will telegraph Captain General
Blanco to this effect urging 'him to di-
rect the opinion of the army rtoward
this solution. 0n General Blanco’s re-
ply depends w«hether the government
commences negotiations immediately,
without waiting the outcome of the
situation «at Santiago de Cuba.”

The Liberal publishes an interview
with a. minister, who is quoted as say-
»ing that a. cabinet crisis might occur

to-day, toémorrow or next week, but .

rtlhat in any case it will not long be de-
layed.

The minister is said to have added
that the crisis would be the occasion
for .the whole ministry resigning in a
body. ,, '

H-aines Falls, N. Y., July 12.---A hea-

[with snow.

Madrid Tells of Peirce Offer. . _
.Madrid, July 12.--It is asserted that

the United States makes the-following -

demands as conditions of peace:

First, the possession of Cuba. and
Porto Rico and a port in the Cana-
ries. -

Second, an indemnity of 48,000,000
pounds (about $240,000,000). ,

Third, the retention of the Philip-
pines as a guarantee of the payment of
the indemnity.

These terms are regarded as impos-
sible.

 

. London, July 12.-—The Berlin corre-
spondent of the Standard says:

“The queen regent is willing to open
peace negotiations with .the United
States without any mediation of the
powers, provided- the conditions are not
too severe Her maximum concession
at present is a declaration of the inde-

pendence of Cuba.”

Washington, July 12.--Reports. 'from
Madrid that the United States has pro-
posed ‘terms of peace to Spain are pro-
nounced in official circles to be the
rankest nonsense. The United States
government is conducting a war with
all the vigor possible to compel Spain
to [sue for peace. So far the war has
cost $360, 000, 000 in appropriations, with
more to follow, even should hostilities
cease at once.

There will be no peace until Spain

asks for it, and Spain does not seem to .

have much sense in that direction.

 

 

Otis Will Sail To-day.

San Francisco, July 12 .---Major Gen-
eral Otis has not yet received definite
orders regarding the sailing of the next
Manila expedition, but the impression
prevails in militry circles that the
transports Peru and City of Puebla.
will get away to-day. General Otis
expects to sail on one of these steam-
ers or a mail steamer, for he has been
ordered to be in Honolulu when the
formal annexation of Hawaii takes
place.

' There have been no new develop-

Vments as to the transports engaged or

the troops to be assigned to the fifth
expedition to the Philippines. ' The
gunboat Bennington is at anchor in the
bay with steam up. She is ready to de-
part at a moment’s notice. Her desti-
nation is not positively known, though
she will probably go to Honolulu. The
cruiser Philadelphia. is rapidly being
prepared for sea at the Mare island na-
vy yard.

Work on the animal transport ship
Tacoma began yesterday. She will oar-
ry 20 horses, besides a. large quantity
of stores and supplies for Man-11a. At
Honolulu the horses will be landed and
given a few days’ exercise before pro-
ceeding 'to the Philippines. '

, Sick and \Vounded Norlhwurd Bound.

' Guantanamo Bay, July 12.-——The Oli-
vette is here, ready to sail at any mo-
ment for Hampton Roads with five
hundred sick and wounded on board,

among them being General H. S. Haw-

kins, Major A. O. Brodie, Major J. M.
Bell, Captains Thomas T. Knox, James
H. McClintock and Morton J. Henry
and Lieutenants M. Nichols, J. R.

Big Navy Dry Dock Almost Finished.

Washington, July 11.—Through the
ingenuity of engineers at the Brooklyn
navy yard the biggest warships of the
navy soon will be able to go into dry
dock there for rep-airs. The first of
these probably will be the Iowa, which
within‘ three weeks can enter the new
giant dry dock No. 2 to repair the
damages received in the engagement
with Admiral Cervera’s squadron.

Cotton Mills Started Up.

Fall River, Mass, July 12.---The mills
of twelve corporations operating about
nine hundred thousand spindles, which
have been dlosed since July 2, were
started up again yesterday. The Slade
mills continue shut down this week.
The conditions of the print clorth mar-
ket did not warrant running.
