Raked By Shells

New York, June 7.- A special from Cape Haytien, describing the bombardment of Santiago de Cuba, on Monday, says that the forts about the harbor are now a mass of ruins. The Morro is a shapeleps pile of ruined masonry and disma. t ed guns, and the Estrella battery Ís ut.erly ruined. This result, the dispat h says, was the work of ten American iron-clads, which passed back and forth from Port Cabrera on the west to Port Aguadores on the east of the harbor entrance, discharging their heavy guns as they steamed along, so that scarcely a yard of the coast escaped the deadly cannonading. At Port Aguadores the fort recently constructed by Colonel Ordonez, thé famous artillery expert, was blown to dust and Colonel Ordonez himself was badly wounded by the flying splinters and debris. Captain Sánchez and Lieutenant Yrizar, artillery officer, were also wounded. Two infantry lieutenants, Garcia and Perez, and twenty-one privates are reported fatally wounded. Work of a 13-IncU Shell. Later in the day the American ships moved closer toward the mouth of the harbor, where the old cruiser Reina Mercedes had been discerned attempting to place explosives about the huil of the Merrimac to blow her to pieces and clear the channel. A 13-inch sheil from the Oregon landed squarely abaft her pilot house and tore all her upper works to shreds. Her "second commodore," five of her sailors and a marine were killed. A second lieutenant of the Reina Mercedes and sixteen of her seamen were very seriously wounded. A perfect shower of shell and shot feil upon and around the old cruiser and she was so badly damaged that her crew by order of Admiral Cervera, abandoned the snip for the shore for safety. About noon, according to the Cape Haytien dispatch, a landing party of American marines near Daiquiri wasattacked by Spanish infantry and a sq,uad of cavalry. Spanish Force Defeated. The insurgents were posted in the neighborhood and with the ai3 of the marines successfully up a position, holding it, and later making it a base from ivhich they operated. The Spanish force was defeated with heavy loss and driven back toward Santiago, leaving their wounded behind them. The Americans are now entrenched near Daiquiri and are landing heavy guns preparatory to moving them toward Santiago and laying siege to the city. There is a panic in Santiago. The residents who can are fieeing to th country, joining the insurgents or doing anything to get away from the certain destruction that now awaits Cervera's fleet and the forces of Pando and Linares.
