of nearly $2,000,000 over the receipts for
the corresponding quarter of the pre-

INVASION_______

First Troops Likely to Lied on
Cuban Soil Left Yesterday.

MILES STARTS FOB. TAMPA

Volunteers “’1” Not Stop at Chicka-
lnaugn, but Go Direct to the-Front,
—Reg‘ulars Will Be Enxbnrked
First, and Volunteers “fill Follow
us Speedily as Possible Thereafter
-—0rde'rs Changed. '

'W'ashington, May 11.—Preparations
for the invasion of Cuba. by the United

States Army are being pushed as
rapidly as possible. It was announced

2 at the War Department that at. least

20,000 troops will be landed in Cuba by
Saturday morning. The thirty or forty
thousand volunteers will follow as soon
as they can be put upon the transports.

As announced in these dispatches
yesterday, Gen. Miles will take com-
mand of the troops, and will leave for
Tampa to-day on the Southern Rail-
way. His staff, however, left last night
for the headquarters at Tampa. Gen.
Miles, when he arrives at Tampa, will
have absolute charge and direction of
the movement of the troops, but Gen.
Wade will be in command of the invad-
ing force. '

The preparations for hastening the
movements of'the troops to all points
South are nearly completed, and an im-
portant change has been made in the
assignment of the volunteer forces.
The troops ordered to Chickamauga
from the West will not stop there, but

New Orleans as ordered, while the
troops from the Eastern States, which
have been ordered also 'to Chickamau-
38., will not go to that point, but will
be shipped by the nearest route to the
three points South, named.

This change has been made because
the Cabinet has decided to send the
volunteers to Cuba also. When the as—
signmentswere made a few days ago
by the War Department, it was
thought that the troops ordered. to
Chickamauga would mobilize -‘ and
would remain in ‘camp. until called to

THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

Because of his aggresive attitude in
all reforms the cartoonists found a.
large field for their imaginative powers
during his administration as Police
Commissioner in New York, but with
bull-dog tenacity, of which his square
chin is indicative, he went on his way,
never once phased by the ugly pictures
of himself or the criticisms of the jour-
nals.

Judgment Was Entered,

One of the cases disposed of recently
by the Supreme Court was that of the
New York Indiansvs. the United States,
appealed from the Court of Claims. The
New York Indians brought suit against
the United States to recover $2,393,600
claimed to be due them by virtue ofthe
failure of the Government to carry out
terms of the" treaty of Buffalo, promul-
gated in 1838. This treaty provided for
the removal of the Indians to a point
west of the Mississippi ’River, for which
the Government was ito tappropriate
$400,000. There was also to be paid to
the Indians $126,500. anda half section of
land was to be allotted to each Indian,
On the other hand, the Indians were to-
cede to the Government the lands they,
held in Wisconsin. To carry out the
provisions of the treaty the Government.
expended $9,464 and gay»: 10,240 acres of,
'land in Kansas to thirty-two Indians.
Later the Government paid $256,000 to
the Tonawanda band of, Senaca‘Indians
and secured a release of their rights
_ under the treaty. Upon the basis of
' this arrangement the remaining Indians
calculated the value of their rights un-
der the treaty at $2,393,600, and for this

 

 

G i brought suit. The Court 'of Claims dis-

missed the bill, and the Supreme Court
reversed that judgment and ordered
that judgment for the claim of the In-
dians be entered. SENATOR.

of sleeve-button has made $50,000 iii-five

- Tampa, May 11.—Before the. V-news

CUBA BEGUN.

. fleet had turned tail and run home, and i

in the absence of any definite informa:
tion as to Rear Admiral Sampson's
fleet, the army yesterday started a lit-

tle Cuban exped'idtion from Port Tam-

a.
p The first United States regulars to
land on Cub'an soil sailed on the side-
=wheel steamer Gussie at 1.10 p. m.
They are Companies E and G of the
First Infantry, Major Gen. Shafter’s
old regiment. Dr. F. Gandy, of the
First, two hospital stewards and four
privates will act as hospital attendants,
from the Ninth Cavalry, and a small
party of Cuban veterans went along,
too. The expedition was in charge of
Capt. J. H. Dorst.

The Gussie will stop at three differ-
ent places on the Cuban coast, but the
success of the expedition depends upon
secrecy regarding the landing points,
and they cannot, therefore, be stated.
It can be said, however. that» they are
close enough to the Cubanallies to in-
sure the safe delivery of arms and am-
munition.

The nine transports have had two
shifts of one hundred carpenters, at
workon, them night and day building
stalls for the horses and mules. They
have their coal and watersupplies, and
are now taking on ammunition and
provisions for the men. A tremendous
amount of these is being packed away
in their holds.

It is not thought that the nine boats
now at Port Tampa. can carry more

’ men than are now here, for they will

be crowded with 7,000 men, 16,000 horses
and mules, and the guns, ammunition
and provisions necessary for such an
expedition. ,

It is said that a request. has been
made for more ships, for it will be im-
possible to carry the 5,000 regulars now
at Chickamauga and New Orleans on
the first expedition on the fleet of ships
now here. These additional 5,000 are
now under orders to come to Tampa,
making about 12,000 in all at the twc

camps here.

‘Washington dispatches say, as they
have said before, that an immediate in-
vasion of Cuba has been decided upon.
This word “immediately" must not be
taken too literally; it will be a matte
of days to embark all the regiments
and their paraphernalia now here. Ii
will be a. matter of weeks ‘to load sucl‘.
an army of regulars and volunteers as
has been ordered to, this place.- .. .

HE 501.0 A DICKENS souvsm'a.

the Manuscript of " Our Mutual Frleed ”
\Vas Bought by George W. Childs.
g' When “Our Mutual Friend" was pub-
lished,’ a highly laudatory notice of the
,boo-k appeared in a "leading journal,
:which was written by Mr. X., an ac-
: quaintance of Dickens, and a very clev-
[er man, who has been dead for many
iyears. Mr. X. wrote to inform Dick-
;ens of the service which he had ren-
dered him, and not only did he receive
a grateful, not to say gushing, reply,
but the author was so delighted with
the timely lift which his book had
been favored with that he presented
the reviewer with the manuscript of
'the story bound up in gilt morocco.
Mr. X. acknowledged the gift in glow-
ing terms, assuring the author that
only death would part him from the
precious manuscript, and that he would
take care that it should utlimately find
a place in the nationtl collec?
tions. A few years later one of
,Dickens’ most intimate friends was
traveling in America and happened to
'visit the late Mr. Childs at Philadel~
phia, in whose library one of the chief
.features was this same manuscript,
iwhich it turned out had been sold by
er. X. for £250. .Anthony Trollope
had a stormy discussion with Dickens
'at a London dinner party about the
transaction, asserting with character-

 

 

;istic vehemence that Mr. X. was wrong '

to inform Dickens that he had written
vthe review; that Dickens was much
ito blame for having taken any notice
,of his letter, and that the gift of the
'manuscript should neither have been
.offered nor accepted, as it was practi-

ture.

AN AUSTRALIAN CONTRIVANCE.

To “'arn or: the Womennurln'g the Week
of the Sacred Bofs'nance. .

Some men were handling a. little
piece of wood about the shape of a
cigar boat, and four or, five inches long,
with a long reed kind of tail to it. .

“What odd, thing is that, wooden!
rat?” asked the guardsman. =

“Wichi-wichi," replied Warrigul.

Just then a. native whirled one over
his head at a dangerous 'gait, and sent
it flying out along the level ground.
The little nose of it bobbed up and »
down, and the queer, oblong thing
worked its way along, with its tail as H
:1 balance, at a fearful rate. It ran.
along the ground for sixty or seventy
yards. Others competed at the game
of wichi-wichi, until _the winner scored
over one hundred 'yards'in the direct-
est line to the target.

Then they swung the hulawalla. This
is a fish-shaped piece of thin wood tied
to a long stringan-d swung around and
around by means of a. long stick. The
noise of it much reSembled the rear of
a, giant bull enraged. The hulawala
is used by the tribesmen to warn off
the women during the week of the
sacred bora dance. It can be heard
three or four miles away, according to
Dur-
ing that week the women must not
