Army of Invasion—New York
Washington, May 10.—Gen. Miles has
announced that as soon as possible 66,-
000 troops would be sent to Cuba. He
hopes to get part of this army of inva-
sion off by next Sunday. By that time
Spanish fleet would be over, and the
attack on Cuba would be made.
The Cabinet has decided on an ag-
gressive policy, and from this time on
war will be waged with vigor. Not
only will Cuba be occupied, but Manila
and Porto Rico.
The War Department is hastening
preparations to move the army.
volunteers in camp will be hastily mus-
tered in and sent South, ready to go to
Cuba. The New York volunteers at
Camp Black, as they are all ready to
muster in, will be among the first to
be ordered out.
Four regiments from New York have
been ordered to move at once to Wash-
ington, where they will go into camp
at Falls Church, Va., a few miles south

of Arlington. The Pennsylvania troops,
and in fact all of. the Eastern regi—
ments will be in camp at the same
place. The New York troops will Start
as soon as they can be mustered in.
Gen. Miles says he can get 66,000
troops into Cuba in ten days.
The victory at Manila has so changed

to Cuba. and Porto Rico, as well as the
Philippines. It is believed that the
a treaty of peace negotiated andsigned
before the Summer is over.
The Change of Plan.
The change of plan was evidently
brought about by news from Cuba,
brought to Washington by our officers,
who went there to open communication
with the Cubans. Up to Saturday the
plan was to send only a small force of
troops to the isla d; but, although this
was favored by t e President and Sec-
retary Alger, it was opposed by the
military experts, who have a compre-
hensive plan for operations, and this
was accepted.
There is no doubt that the visit of
Gen. VVoodford to the President had
something to do with the plan of inva-
sion just announced. Gen. Woodford
gave the President a full report of the
situation in Madrid, and the condition
of the army and navy there. This evi-
dently was of such a, character as to
strengthen the plan proposed by the
military experts.
The feeling now is that further delay
would unnecessarily prolong the war,
that a small force. of troops would not
be effective in gettingxrelief to the suf-
margin, nor could it protect a base of
supplies. The Cuban forces could :.-ot
be relied upon to assemble at this place
in sufficient strength to aid the Ameri-
can army. A small body Of our troops
landed in Cuba might be utterly de-
stroyed.
Another thing considered is that. the
victory at Manila, the desperate situa—
tion of the Spanish Government at
home, the effectiveness of the blockade
of Cuba, and the developments at Por—
to Rico, all give promise of a speedy
termination of the war if blows are
struck with vigor and in rapid succes-
sion. It is proposed, therefore, to close
up the war as quickly as possible,
avoiding protracted disturbance, and
lessening the danger of international
complications. It is calculated that
though it will take a week or ten days
longer,to get a large army to Cuba
than it would to land a small force and
establish a base of supplies, the large
force would bring relief to the suffer-
ing on the island more speedily than
could the small force.
l The plan is to land a large force at
several points to ‘advance upon the
Spanish as rapidly as possible, and,
| aving confined the enemy in Havana,
1 relieve the suffering of the rest of
5. e island and then reduce the city.

Gen. Miles has acknowledged that
he department was making all haste
o assemble a large army at the South-
:rn ports for a. Cuban campaign. He
:as been in consultation with the gen-
.rals who will have charge of this work
ind gave orders to all the officers mus-
)lete their work with all dispatch, and
'50 notify him of the earliest possible
lay on which thetroops can be ordered

The Commanding Genera“.
The present arrangement contem-
ilates the sending of . about 66,000
WOODS to Cuba. Of this number 18,000
will be regulars, and the remaining 50,-
l00 will be volunteers. Gen.“ Shatter
will probably command the first divii
den of the. regulars, and: Gen. Cappin-
ger the second. Gen. Lee is slated for
the command of the first division of
volunteers. '

Flutter, has delivered to Gen. Miles on
mportant communication - regarding
the Cuban campaign. The document
was considered too important to be
mtrusted to the mails. A report from
Admiral Sampson reached Secretary
Long on Sunday. These two papers
save an important bearing upon the
Cuban invasion, where they were laid
before the Cabinet. ’
The haste with which the prepara—
iiions are being made for the army is
matters orders have been issued limit-
';eers to simply a blue blouse. The de-
iueh that the army cannot wait for
them and permission has been given to
.ivolunteers to wear any trousers they
may see gt.
The plan proposed now is to muster
iln all volunteers now in camp in differ-
. {ant States and order them to Southern
Ipoints, 40,000 of them to come to Wash-
,lng. As the volunteers of New York,
thio, Michigan, Maryland, Pennsylva;
ioia, Delaware and New Jersey, and of
ga. few other States are in camp ready
-5to be mustered in, these will be the
first ones ordered South for the Cuban
ninvasion.
The President holds to the belief that
the Spanish forces will not offer any re-
sistance worth speaking of to the prog—
ress of the expedition into the interior
of Cuba. . ‘
The latest advices received from Ha-
'vana. through secret agents are that
there are not more than 80,000 Spanish
troops, including volunteers and Span-
Iish sympathizers, on. the island, and
,that these are massed in Havana. in
anticipation of an attack by the Ameri-
can gunboats.
Estimates of the strength of the in-
surgent forces, with which'the United
.States will co-operate, place it at less
than 9,000, scattered throughout the in-
lterior. The report of the insuygent
strength has reached the President di-
rect from Gen. Gomez, having been
brought by the American officer who
visited the camp of the insurgent lead-
rer ten days ago.
3 Miles to Lead the Invasion.
1 \Vashington, May 10.—The War Com-
7mittee has decided that Gen. Miles in
Iperson shall lead the invasion of Cuba,
,No time is to be lost. G-en. Shafter has
jbeen ordered to hurry up additional
,Lransports. Volunteers, as well as
ltroops of the regular army, are to take
‘part in the occupation of the island.
“On to Cuba.”
YVashington. Tiny 10.—Orders were is-
sued last night for the volunteers to
start for Chickamauga. The railroads
will be crowded in three days. It is
”On to Cuba!” from this time on. The
first load of regulars is expected to go
on to—morrow.
THE WAR REVENUE BILL.
Committee Will Not Report the
Bond Proposition. '
\Vashington, May 10.——-Senator Jones,
of Nevada, has indicated that he will
:oppose the bond provision of the War
Revenue bill. It. therefore will be
stricken out in the Senate Finance
'Ccmmittee, and then a fight will be
imade in the Senate to reinsert it.
The committee continued its work
yesterday on the War Revenue bill,
’beginning with the unfinished amend-
,ments offered by the Republican mem-
Ibers to the stamp tax schedule. The
committee considered as absolutely
settled the two matters. of the elimina-
tion of the tonnage tax and the chang-
,ing of the tobacco schedule so as to
'relieve stock on hand from taxation.
]They have decided to leave the beer.
schedule as it passed the House, ex-
cept that the rebate is to be increased
from 5 to 71/2 per cent. There are also
many other changes which have been
settled, but the members of the com-
'mittee refuse to make them public, on
the plea that they are generally of
cation would only serve to bring pro-
tests from those interested.
The Democratic members of the com-
mittee have completed their amend-
ments and decided fully upon a pro-
gramme. In addition to their provision
for a corporation tax they will offer an
;$150,000,000 in non-interest—bearing
.Treasury notes, and another authoriz-
llng the coinage of the silver seigniorr
age in the Treasury. The rate of tax-
ation for corporations has been reduced
in their programme to one-half of 1 per
cent, and it is believed by them that
this provision will produce at least $40,-
000,000 of revenue.
| It now seems quite certain that these
provisions will be incorporated in the
bill as reported to the Senate, and that
the bond provision will be stricken out,
on account of the action of Senator
Jones, of Nevada, in determining to
vote with the Democrats in committee
on the bond proposition.
Ponchos for Volunteer Army.
. Cleveland,‘0., May10.-—The Cleveland
Rubber Works has just received an
order from the United States Govern-
ment to immediately furnish 15,000 pon-
chos for the volunteer army. The pon-
‘chos are light rubber blankets, 72x45
inches, and are adapted to three uses.
Tl.y can be used as blankets, as capes,
or four of them may be placed together
and made into a tent. It is the inten-
tion of the Government to furnish all
'the volunteers with these blankets, as
they will be especially serviceable in
.Cuba during the rainy season. An-
other order for 50,000 ponchos will prob—
ably be given to the company within
a. few days.
Big Order for Cartridges.
East Chicago, Ind., May 10.—The
Hessvi'lle powder mills, located five
miles south of this place, will begin
_ eration to-day on an order of 35,-
.0 0,000 cartridges for the Government.
The powder mills at Miller’s Station .
are also working day and night on
