The Spnnish batteries remained

orders were issued to prevent fir

American admiral had been in
formed that Lieutenant Hobson
and the other prisoners of the

stray shots damaged Morro Castle,

caused havoc among the Spanish
shore batteries, quickly silencing
them. While the larger ships
were engaging the heavy batteries,
the Suwanee and N ixon closed
with the small in shore battery
opposite them, raining rapid-lire
shots upon it and quickly placing
the battery out of the light.
The Brooklyn closed to S00
yards, and then tlio destruction
caused by her guns and those ot
the Marblehead and Texas was
I really awful. In a few minutes
the woodwork of Kstrella fort was

silenced, tiring no more during
II he engagement.
Eastward, the New York and
New (irlenns silenced the Cave I
battery in quick order, and then
I shelled the earthworks located
1 I '
burner up.
Later, the practice was not so
I accurate, owing to the elevation
ol* the guns. Many of the shells,
however, landed, and the Spanish
gunners retired.
Shortly after the firing ceased.,

permit the use of the port batteries.

, though they were 1 >c*i 11 lc expected
'at any moment. The men of the
j command have now been well!
supplied with all the equipments
in the way of clothes, shoes, etc,
that they need for the present, as
a result of what was accomplished i
in Washington on Monday, and
they are feeling much more cheerful.
At the camp everything, so!
far as those already in the bat-;
! talion are concerned, is getting
I along nicely. Major Thompson
! looks carefully after his men and
I they are perfectly contented,
though anxious to get to Camp
Alger and begin real soldiering.
At Camp Leo now everything'
[ centres around the formation of
' the fourth company. There are
a number of men in the camp. As!
stated yesterday Mr. Mixson has ;
; twenty-one men who have been
accepted after examination. Mr.'
McCaughrin has a number of men
in camp, but none of them have,
I yet been examined. Mr. Sirrine
has left his men here and returned
i to (ire.mville, his idea being to re-1
emit tlie Hampton Kif.es up to
the lull standard if possible *, Mr.
Carroll has a number at iho K o'i
grounds, vail, Mr. O'lJri n ha a
number. All toftl,there is pr?>hably
