Washington, May 2.—The' GOvern-
ment is confident of its abilityto carry.
out successfully the plans for landings.
large military force in Cuba at an early
day, and of accomplishing’ail the pur-
poses of the expedition. Despite the
‘ published statements which have pur-
ported to give the minutest details of
the project from 'the precise time of
sailing to the exact point of landing,
the army administration is- apparently
unembarrassed in its plan. The offl-;
cials in charge of the preparations
know that the expedition could not be,
embarked without public knowledge of'
the fact. They are confident, however,-
that they have conducted the prelimin-
ary operations so secretly that little. of
the real intentions of the Administra-
tion have become known. One thing
only has caused serious annoyance.
One newspaper published the date on
which the expedition is expected by the
War Department to set out, and the
publication Was accurate. Up to that
time the exact day the United States
troops would be transported. to the isl-
and had not been mentioned in public
dentially with the fact.
A surprise probably aWaits the Span-
iards, and the history of the first mili-
tary expedition from this country,
when it shall have'been written, will
very likely prove that the strategists
of the army and navy made wise prep-
arations for the successful execution
of the important project which they
had in hand. The landing place of the
troops, with their important. stores of
gunsand ammunition for, the Cuban
insurgents, may be Matanzas, as has
been generally believed, and 'it may
not be. The best reas0n for believing
that Matanzas is not the place selected
is that the public. .and Spain have been
allowed to believe that Matanzas is the
place. ‘ The War Department has made
complete preparations for fortifying
the proposed base Of supplies in Cuba.

to go South at once, and he will prob-
the expedition to
Cuba. A part of the engineer battalion
at Willets Point, N. Y., will go South
for the same purpose.
The preparations which the Adminis-
tration has made for the landing of the
expedition have not neglected the co-
operation of the insurgents, and it is
expected that a strong auxiliary force
of Cuban troops will assist the United
States forces in delivering the large
ammunition which will be carried from
the Florida coast. Some time before
the arrival in Cuba of an emissary of
the War Department had been pub-
lished, the agent had reached the lines
of the insurgent army and had per-
formed the important part of his mis-
sion. The complete details of the expe-
dition were doubtless given this emis-
sary, in order to arrange for the intel-
ligent and prompt co-operation of the
Cubans under Garcia and Gomez.
No secret is made of the fact that
the Administrtation wishes to have- the
volunteer army in condition as soon .as
possible to support, if necessary, the
preliminary expedition to Cuba. Very
soon after the preliminaryrproject shall
have been carried out many of the
volunteers will have been mustered
into regiments and can be landed on
the island very soon, should it become
necessary to engage in a general cam-
paign precipitated by the attempt to
carry arms to the insurgents. It is
possible that the volunteers will be
mobilized at not less than four or five
points south of Washington. There
will be five army corps, probably, and
it is unlikely that more than one corps
will be mobilized in the same place, ex-
cept at Chickamauga. ‘
As already published, it is expected
that the Chickamauga Park and Fort

time.

The Purith to Reduce Remaining

Miami. Fla... May 2.-.From an officer
of the monitor Puritan it is learned
that another attack will be made on
Matanzas to-morrow. The Puritan will
, reach the station to-night and bom-
i bardment will begin early to-morrow
morning.
Both forts will be shelled, and when
reduced landing parties will be sent
ashore. The 900 marines on the Pan-
ther haVe not been permitted to go
ashore at Key West. They are still
aboard the transport, which will be
Iconvoyed to the Cuban coast by the
Puritan. They will police and hold the
town after bombardment.
The Red Cross ship, loaded to the
guards with provisions and supplies for
the reconcentrados, will go with the
Puritan and Panther. Miss Barton,
,Dr. Egan and a large staff of Red
.Cross nurses are domiciled on the
Texas.
I It is said at the naval station that an]
attack, on Havana will be made as
:I'early as to-morrow. Only the western
{shore defenses will be the targets and
inc general attack on all the forts and
{batteries will be made until later in
;the week.
I Matanzas will be the place of the
first landing in Cuba. No attempt will
:be made to extend operations beyond
holding towns until Gens. Miles and
Merritt can land a. column at IVAatanzas

Cubans Coming North to Fight.
Caracas, Venezuela, May 2.—News
from the United States regarding the
war is eagerly read- here, particularly
among the Cuban refugees, of whom
there are a large number in the various
cities. There is much enthusiasm
among the Cubans over the prospect of
Spain being speedily. driven out of: Cu-
ba, and 200 of them have arranged
their affairs and are ready to leave to
take up arms in behalf of the United
States.
700,000 Men .Ofler Their Services.
Washington, May 2,—Senator Lodge,
who made careful inquiries at the War
Department, has been notified that be-
tween 600,000 and 700.000 volunteers
have offered their services to the Gov-
ernment for the war with Spain. The
desire to enlist has been even greater
than the officials had reason to expect.
It is believed in department and legis-
lative circles that if it were necessary
no less than 2,000,000 able bodied men
could be secured. '
I MEGIIMIIG’S VIEW.
one of the Most Important
Local Questions Norwalk
Has at Present to
Discuss.
Opinions expressed publicly through
this N orwalk Newspaper, by people in.
the commoner walks of life, who live in
some distant State, lack the interest
which is attached to opinions held by
residents of this ‘part of Connecticut.
The former have always a suspicious
halo about them which is absent in the
latter. We put. it plainly the reader
would sooner believe the statement of a
man living in So. Norwalk, Cu, than
the statement of a. resident of Toledo,
Ohio, and when the South Norwalk
citizen courts inquiry, the experience
which folloWs can certainly be depend-
ed upou. Mr. Thos. Wood, is a car-
penter by trade, employed at Asch's
hat factory. His address is-Hillstreet.
Write hlm if you are in doubt about
this statement and ask him if it is not
true. Mr. Wood, says: '
“For three years my kidneys troubled
me a great deal. When I straightened
my back. From time to time I had
muscular rheumatism, and it became .
so irksome, both at my work and when
off duty, that I thought it high time to ~
check it before it became more serious.
I got a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills at a
drug store and was greatl y benefitted.
I had no backache after the treatment,
and the soreness in my muscles has not
troubled me since taking the pills.”
Call on Glendening & 00., druggists,
and ask them for the reports their cus-
tomers give. ,

If he should decide to attempt to repel
our troops he could greatly embarrass
them. Unless landing is effected at
some deep water harbor, where docks
can be utilized, men, horses and their
equipment will have to be taken ashore
in lighters.
»= Before our soldiers can occupy a. good .
harbor provided with docks it will first
be necessary for them to drive away
the Spanish from that point. As it is
given out that the object of the expe-
dition is to carry supplies and food to
the suffering Cubans and that every
precaution is to be taken not to, pro-
voke a battle, it would seem that the
forces will be taken ashore at some
place that is either undefended or at
which there is only a small Spanish de-
tachment of soldiers.
It will bea serious matter to get to
shore 5,000 men with their equipments
with no better conveyancethan light-
ers. Soldiers loaded ‘with knapsacks.
blankets. etc.,,can move but slowly un-
der the most favorable conditions, but
in clamboring down from a steamer.
into small boats they will be at great.
disadvantage. ' ,
It will be no easy task either to get
the horses for the'cavalry on shore. Of
course, the navy is expected to cover
with itssuns the point of landing, and.
