At S o"cl.K-k the eiH-my made an unex pected shurn attack on the American rear and left flank. When the pickets came In for rvlli'f the Spmilsrf guerillas crept ng lM-hind and got within I'M yards, w hen the accidental discharge of a rlile In the trenches led them to believe they ere discovered, and they oened lire with a volley which whistled harmlessly overhead. They had shot too high. The marines then scrambled un from their steaming offee and hardtack back to the trendies, and m.-t the guerilla with a utaggerlng but well directed rllle Are. In addition five field pieces mounted at angles In the trenches and the machine gun poured a hall of bullets Into the chapar ral, scattering the main battery ot the Spaniard In all directions. Shells were- dropped In their miost as they ran. but a few of the enemy stood their ground des titutely on the left flank, and the crack of Mauser titles and tho "pings" of bullets were heard rather than seen for an hour, ns tho smokeless powder used by tno KpanUh made their location In the dense underbrush almost Impossible to discover. The runther tired 6-pounders into the 8vtnlards while tho marines were en- ga-ed In beating off the attack. Only one man was wounded, and no sustained a slight Injury in hs hand.

But probably tho most significant feature of the numlrars dis patch was the statement that tho Cuban Kvnoral, Rnbl, had occupied Acivraderos, only eight miles from Santiago and prac tically a suburb of thut Spanish strong hold. It was the execution of a plan ar ranged in Washington some weeks ago when two of tho staff officers of General i-tjircln came here to confer with General Miles.

Waj-liliiKton. June li. A mail report jut received at the navy department from Commander K. P. Wood, of the gunooat Petrel, under date of May 4. give, an Interesting account of the engagement at Manila bay. aupplem. ntary to the re- lri of Admiral Iewey. After telling subatan ..y as aet out in Admiral Dewey's report forcing of iho entrance to the bay, Commander Woods dearrilH-s the action with the 'tMmh forts and fleet. He saya the column of American ships sailed three times from east to west In front of the I shore, sun. ling In nearer each time, the . Spaniards being distant about i.u yards, I Several tlmea the vessels had to cease I firing on account of the amoke and to Castllla. the former steaming around tne j harbor an.) the latter anchored about w iii order to give the men breakfast. When It was resumed the petrel rounded Sang ley point alwut M yurds outside of where the Castllla was burning. The tire was then directed at the Don Antonio de I Ilea, and when It was found that ne was sinking and deserted, the Petrel ! lassed Inside and opened lire upon the j ships behind rhe inner breakwater, whooe j masts were seen above the government buildings. During the fire on the Ullou a white flag was discovered In range of her, so the Petrel moved In further to get It out ot range. After the first two or three snots at the public buildings and ships behind the mole the Spanish flag was, at 12:30 p. m., hauled down and a white flag was run up. The surrender was Immediately .sig nalled to the fleet and all firing ceased. In obedience to orders from the flagship to destroy all shipping in the harbor, Lieut. Hughes was aent with a whale boat and crew of seven men, this whale boat being the only cue on the ships which would Hoat. and Hughes set tire to the Johnde Austria, the Isla de Cuba, Isla de Luxon, the Lenxo, and the Del Uro. After Ensign Fcrmyer was sent to set lire to the Velasco and El Corrvo. The lsla de Cuba, the lsla de Luxon, and the John de Austria were aground and full of water when they were fired. Tnelr outboard valves were opened and the ships were allowed to fill. The breech plugs ot the four-Inch guns had been taken off. During the night the muga xlnes of the Don Juan de Austria blew up. The Manila was not burned, because tho Spanish officers begged that she be not destroyed, living unarmed and a coast survey vessel, and she was put under steam and brought out. The UUoa was sunk and the Christna and Casiilla were burned In the outer harbor. Lieut. Flske of the Petrel went ashore and brought off two tugs and three steam launches. There were no casualties on the ship and the ship was atruck only once. There was the greatest confusion In the arsenal. The men were all armed and moving about, but showed no evi dence of a desire to continue fighting. Instead ot resisting the destruction ot their ships the Spanish sailors were In clined to assist to surrender to the first officer that thev could meet. On the Petrel there was actually less contusion than at ordinary target prac tice, the loading was rapid and the lire deliberate. The conduct ot each nnd every officer and man was excellent. Command er Wood particularly called attention to tho gallantry of Lieut, Hughes in taking a boat's crow of seven men and. In the face ot a large force on shore, setting tiro to tho live ships. - THE PARIS EXPOSITION'. The Frenchmen Desire Americans to Look After tho Electrical Power. W ashlngton, June lo. Reference is made In a report by Thomas W. Cridler, third assistant secretary of state, upon the Paris exposition to an inquiry by the ex- position authorities as to whether the Americans could furnish tne electrical power to light the whole exposition and run all the machinery. This would re- i quire 30 000 horsepower, ho said. Mr. Crld - 1 u-r took the matter under advisement, with view of securing the opinion of elertrical expert in the United 8tate. Mr. Cridler aaya ther are two aallent frturea In the general acheme of the exposition. The firat ia IU admirable attu- tlon In the center of Pari; the next the emlielllabment of that part of the Seine connecting the two extremities of the expoaltlon, which will retail to the vtMt or'a mind a modern Venice, and which by Ita aplendor and magnificence will con tribute to aurpaaa all previous expoatttona In Paria. At one extremity the Trocadero and at the other tne Champa Elyee will be con nected by an Immense maritime boule- I yard of decorative water craft, spanned j ,y (our large bridges. j The space secured for the United States wm be a hall of general manufactures j and household furnishing.

He does not openly say so. but neverthe less makes it apparent from his report that he has reference to the threat made in some quarters tnat the United States would refrain from making an exhibit because of the undue sympathy with Spain. On this point I ys "It would be unfortunate for commer cial reasons were the United States to de cline to make an adequate representation. Congress in 1M7, by accepting the lnvl tutlon of France to participate, has an obligation to provide the requisite means but aside from such obligation there are controlling reasons why the government should be properly represented. The vast interests of our country should be dis played advantageously in competition with those of nil foreign land. In this I our matn-hnntm nn,t r..nlif.ip!irr are concerned, and In proportion as they show the people of the earth who will be con gregated at Paris, how great are our raw products, our manufactures and our In ventions, will credit be reflected upon us as a nation. The growing export trade of the United States would also gain by an exhibit, for as tt Is, our goods are already, gaining headway in Europe. A complete exhibit at Paris will deeply Im press the commercial affairs of the world there to be assembled, and redound im mediately to the credit and lasting bene fit of our American commerce." Mr. Cridler asserts that the coming ex position will surpass In beauty and gran deur any similar exposition of the past, and says the United States should be widely represented. He closes with a recommendation that a permanent com mission be Immediately established. THE LAURaDA AGROUND. Caused Serious Damage to Vancouver's Water Mains. Vancouver, B.

Wong Wen arrived here on the steam er Belgio with sixty ot his countrymen, all of whom sought to enter on mer chants' certificates Issued under tho aet of 1SS1, and his case was submitted to test the law. The government held that the certificate In question was defective, ns necessary details were not stated. The petitioner claimed that these were not de manded by the treaty, which It was as- serted took precedence over the act of consress.

A TRIPPLE KILLING. One Woman and. Two Men Fight a Duel to Death at Tacoma. Tacoma, June IS. At 10:1S this morntog James D.
