Following this attack many wild alarms were spread through the village dtirii.Z Monday night and Tuesday. It wa.- reported that l,oX) Spaniards were movinf upon the village but Lieuten ant Voous kept a bharp outlook and hl. bis mea in reaalinnss to resist. The members of the Third Illinois ere landed yesterday, being covered Against this increased American force the Spaniards made a second attack today, were again repulsed, and fifteen of their soIdieTS were taken prisoners. Each of the Spanish prisoners wore a Red Cross badge, this trick being a favorite one with the Spaniards. The prisoners said they were looking for four of their comrades who had been wounded in the skirmish, and there upon hey were released. The work of landing the American troops is still under way tonight, searchlignts being used to facilitate thelacdiog. When all of the troops have been sent ashore General Brooke tomorrow will advance against Guay ama, while the St. Louis and tha Cin cinnati will pour a hot tire of Shrap nel in the direction of the place. It is expected that the Spaniards will make a desperate resistance. It is understood they have a considerable force in the hills between here and Guavma. and the garrison in the town is reported to number 1,500 men. This evident determination of the enemy to resist the American advance is due to the atrategic importance of Guayama to General Brooke. He will advance from Guayama to the San Juan military road and thus will be able either to frighten the strong Spanish force from Aib'onito or else will put them in a pocket.

Durijg the first eighteen months of the "demo-pop" administration the, interest-bearing debt of Nebraska was reduced to $700,542.99. Omaha World Herald. W ILL FIOHT THE FARCE. There is a strong disposition on the part of numerous taxpayers to prevent the county commissioners making the usual appropriation for a county fair, and unless some 'steps are taken at once an oppropriation of about $700 will no doubt be made. Injunction has been suggested as the proper step and while we doubt that being made effective, we are willing to join with otters and raise a fund to contest the right of a few men to raid the county treasury upon pretense of holding a county fair. The amount to be ap propriated is almost sufficient to buy all the exhibits that will be on the grounds this year, and it is the nearest thing to robbery for a gang to get hold of $700 of the people's money and squander it in paying "salaries and.ex pense to themselves for conducting such a ridiculous farce as this thing has been several years pat. The Ledger, us well as most of the farmers in this part of the county, is decidedly in favor of putting forth some effort to prevent this county fair foolishness, better use the $700 improving ceme teries, and have ccording to the rules adopted by the conference committee a candidate j tDe country, though a good rain would bad to secure a majority in all the nut come amiss.
