GIIEXADA , Nicaragua ( via Oalvoston , Tex. ) ,
May 24. [ By Mexican Cnblo to the Now
York Herald Special to Tnn BKB. ) Addl-
tlonal details of the decisive bat-
tlo of Barranca Pass , near Masfiya ,
show thnt It was oven more dlstl
nstrous than It was nt first believed
to be. ncliabio data shows that the gov-
crnmont's losses were 155 killed and SOT
wounded. This was largely duo to the
terribly raking flro of the revolutionary
artillery which occupied n strong position on
Cosotcpo hill and throw out murderous mos-
scnpers with scientific ( incision and deadly
effect.
The ilvo ICrupp nuns which formed the
government batteries did less effective work
ngatnst the revolutionary army , although
Soam'a artillery was commanded by
n French expert. From n hill ono
rnllo from Nlndtrl station the gov
ernment pieces wcro trained upon the
insurgents , but their aim was Imperfect nnd
the death list of the revolutionists la not
nearly so great as that of the government
nrmy.althoughtho government battorlcsdls-
chargcd 240 shells and the Held pieces of the
insurgents rcullcd with only sixty shots.
The revolutionists outfought the govern
ment troops. The half-paid and undisci
plined soldiers wcro In no sense a match for
the well paid and well fed troops wno have
Joined the revolution.
When the Ilnttla llecun.
The lighting which resulted so disastrously
to Socosa's ' government began at 10 o'clock
on the morning of May 19. Supported by Its
batteries north of Nlndlrl station the gov
ernment column advanced toward the posi
tion held by the revolutionists.
As the troops advanced the insurgent bat
tery on C'osotopo hill opened tiro. Their
well trained flold pieces uluyed havoc with
the attacking columns and caused them to
turn back. The column was hurriedly re
formed und advanced again In the
face of the deadly flro from the
batteries on Cosotopo hill. The ICrupp guns
of Socosa's gave many a roar , ibut did no
damage to the insurgent forces. Every
effort to sllcnco the guns on Cosotcpe hill
was useless , whllo the Insurgent batteries
wcro raking the government ranks with dis
tressing effect.
The advunro of their infantry was checked
nnd the effort to carry the heights was
ilnally abandoned. Carrying their wounded
with them , Socosa's troops were . " . .ally
forced to leave the field. When the fleht
had ended they filled thrco cars with their
wounded soldiers nnd sent them back to
Managua.
Annthur Engagement.
Nona of the revolutionists wcro injured.
The real battle , however , was fought on May
20. It began with heavy cannonading at 9
o'clock in the morning. As on the
first day , the firing from the government
batteries ended mainly in noise and had no
effect whatever upon the revolutionists. The
Infantry column was ordered to move for
ward at 0 o'clock , and from that time , on
the fighting was fast and furious.
Thirteen hundred government troops
attempted to light their way out
to the position held oy the insurgents , who
numbered a little moro than 1,000 and
were commanded by Qeneral Barranca ,
but they attempted what wan almost im
possible to accomplish. The revolutionists
held so strong a position In the mountain
pass that a much' larger attacking force
would have been required to dislodge them ,
even If they had not been backed by artil
lery and supported by their flold pieces on
Cosotepe bill ; however , they made it so un
comfortable for the attacking army tuat the
enemy was forced to retire with loss.
On the iriuld of Uattic.
Scores of men fell in the battle field.
Meanwhile a force of 300 revolutionists had
been sent around Cosotopo hill under
the command of General Catarlna. They
were confronted by 450 of Bacajos' soldiers
under General Mnsatoppc Franklin. The
government Joined the other forces and all
united in another attack upon the lu-
suruents1 main position from the Nindirl
side.
side.This
This movement was no mcro effective
than the former ones. The attack
was vigorously made , but after an
hour's fighting the assaulting columns
were forced to retreat and Gen
eral Baranca's rouolntlonary army was In
complete possession of the Tlsma road. The
fleeing revolutionists were hotly pursued
and some ot them wore captured.
Occasional firing was continued
until the middle of tha after
noon , when the cntlro government army fell
back in confusion , plundering tha village
of Nindirl as they Hod. Although
the rovolucionlsts lost only twelve killed
and eight wounded , nearly all of
then there ofllcers , ono of them being Julio
Gomez , a leading revolutionist , who belongs
to a prominent family. This loss was small ,
however , compared with the 153 govern
ment soldiers killed and S87 wounded , in ad
dition to the largo number of prisoners cap-
turod. Two of the ( 'overmen ! generals were
killed.
Socoia Ilently to Quit.
The result of tueJHght has loft the govern
ment in n distressing possliion. Its decrees
nro ineffective bccauso It is now
practically without the power to enforce
them. A locomotive on the Nicaragua
railway was yesterday brought over to
the revolutionists by its engineer and fire
man and many government troops have de
serted to Join tha ranks of the insurgents.
Disorganization und demoralization prevails
in the government ranks.
In Managua it Is rex | > rtod 200 govern
ment soldiers were about to desert and
go over to the revolutionists when
their plans were revealed and the
men Imprisoned. President Socosa is
reported to lied to Corlnto und is ready to

situation and has now little chunco to re
gain what iflins lost.
The absence of u United States war ship
in tha Nlcnraguan waters is needed
for the protection of American inter
acts. The government issued a do-
crco some days ago prohibiting the steamers
of the Paclllo mall and Cosmos lines from ;
landing at San Juan do Sur. It is believed
they will bo bombarded by government
oft leers at Corlnto and that all merchandise
consigned to persons who sympathise with ,
the revolutionists will bo confiscated ,
Should this bo their purpose in ordering
vessels to laud only at Corinto tha need of a
war ship fan bo readily seen.

As each day passes the rebels become moro
confident of success. Unlllco so many others
who have overthrown these in | > ewer
they do not harbor feelings of revenge
uud do not propose to retaliate on the
conquered in any unseemly manner.
Orders have been issued to the soldiers not
to maltreat the prisoners , and the chiefs of
the rebel army never forgot to remind their
tmIdlers that they are fighting for a princi
pal and not for revengo.
Moreover every courtesy Is shown to those
who full into the hands uf the rebels and the
press has been urgent in its demands that
the remains of these slain in battle shall bo
treated with ail possible respect. The
papers which support the robola uro indeed
entirely patriotic and charitable in tone.
Their descriptions of the various engage
ments arc apparently written by persons
who regret that it over should have
become necessary for Nlcaaguans to
kill one another In battle. There is ,
however , at tha same time a stea'dfast
exhortation to all friends of good govern
ment not to lay down their arms until polit
ical corruption bus been expelled from the
country and not to forget that though force
of arms has become necessary , no deeds
should bo pcpetrated which are ugntust the
dictates ot patriotism anil the national

Success Is the magnetituMidrnwa human-

ty.This
This \rasfully demonstratednt the festival '
of unexampled prosper ! toj .that characterised
Browning , Klng&Co.'s opening last evening.
It marked n point of achievement In the his
tory of n great mercantile house one that
has for years basked In tUoemilos of popu
lar favor. , ,
A flood of light that fairly rivaled the
fa radiance ot AlfWldfn's lamp , soft
st of music , well stocltod tables Indon
with the apparel of mtuddrul , a display pro
fuse \ \ of palms nnd ferns that seemed to wave
n welcome to the surging crtrird these filled
the sccno nt Browning , King & Co.'s brilliant
reception last evening.
It seemed as though nil Omaha were there ,
with his wife and daughters. The Immense
crowd cnmo from the parlors of the rich nnd
the : garrets of the poor. It wns n moving ,
breathing panorama of life in all Its stages
n grand march of citizenship from dlmplo-
eheokod babyhood to wrinkle Inlirnuty.
The seven ngcs ot man , nnd nil ages of
woman , wcro represented. Femlnlnot'eavity
was plethoric. The gentle dignity of woman
hood , from tha dobutnnto to the silvery-
haired grandmother , was In the throng.
The lawn tennis young mnn touched elbows
with the gum-chewing girl. The sturdy
worklugman looked askance nt the willowy
dude. It was n pretty picture from the
book of life n trlbuto of the citizenry in
popular Interest and hearty good will toward
Manager Wilcox and the ilrm which ho so
ably represents.
It was a peed naturcd , Jostling crowd.
Corns had no safeguard. Tempers were loft
at homo. -
Long before the doors wore opened nt 7
o'clock , hundreds of people clnmorcd nt the
entrance ou Douglas street. When the doors
swuiifr open there wns n grand rush thnt
taxed the utmost patience of Sergeant
Shoup and Officers Mitchell and Sailer. The
Musical Union orchestra struck up an en
trancing tune. Muslu had Its charms so
had the artistic Columbian souvenirs which
wcro freely given and thankfully received.
The one , grand , continual round of mirrors
was especially pleasing to the femininity fore
gathered there. "After a moment's reflec
tion" the ladies would pass on. The vanity
bump In the cranium of mankind or is it
in the russet-shod pcdalltlest also asserted
Itself before the ubiquitous mirrors.
No goods were sold last evening. It is es
timated that fully 8,000 people attended the
opening. Twelve thousand souvenirs wcro
given away. Many diplomatic persons got
lu line the second time and thus got two
souvenirs.
The Interior of the establishment nn the
first nnd second lloors presented evidence of
extensive improvements. Over $3,50J has
bson expended in enlarging and remodeling
these two floors. The tlrst floor Is occupied
by gents' furnishing goods , hats and cloth
ing. The second floor is devoted to Juvenile
goods and the third floor to overcoats.
Under the new Improvements the flrm has
much moro space in the various departments
mentioned , to say nothl'ig of the artistic and
extensive remodeling.
Browning , King & Co. first opened their
Omaha branch in 18S3. It is one of the
twelve similar establishments located at
various commercial centers In the United
States. The combined business in thcso es
tablishments averages $0,000,000 annually.
The number of employes of the linn in the
United States nggregate7,000 people. The
flrm was founecd by Hcnry'W. ' King in 1854.
K. S. Wllcox , the managerof the Omaha
house , la a good citizen , whoso popularity
has , in u largo degree , been responsible for
the success of the flrm ' .herb. The Omaha
branch has a large staff offn hful employes ,
consisting of Charles Shfroman. W. K. Goodman -

A feature of the display last evening was
the artistic arrangement ; ofrtho show win
dews and the uniform courteous attention
bestowed upon every visitor by the manager
and his employes. Last'ovdnlng's opening
was the second celebration of bnlarged facili
ties to meet an Increased public 'patronage.
It was nno'.her milestone in the wonderful
proeressof au enterprising flrm that'has
each year Increased in magnitude nnd im

will bo of vast benefit to its good name und
future growth. Especially Is this trim of
the Faber pushers ' from the Fatherland , who
will spread th'o name of Onialm across the

treatment accorded will have much to do
with the excellence ot the mention they
might wake of their visit hero.
