As rebel leader Máximo Gómez entered Camaguey Province in eastern Cuba, Spanish General Jimenez Castellanos marched out from Puerto Principe (modern Camaguey City) and was attacked at nearby Saratoga. Castellanos suffered heavy casualties and when Spanish reinforcements arrived, he retreated to Puerto Principe. Gómez was too exhausted to pursue.
