Miles by Friday or Saturday. The “’ol'k of Forwarding Troops from .hickamauga. No Official News Has Been Received from Miles Tampa, July 26.--Another expedition tor Porto Rico is now being prepared for at this place. The orders are for it to leave at once, and the four tran- sports which are to take it are now on route here. They are expected to ar- will begin immediately upon their ar- rival. The Fifth Maryland, First Flo- rida and Second Georgia regiments, with a detachment of the Fourth Uni- ted States cavalry and two batteries of the Seventh artillery have been des- ignated to compose the expedition. It is the desire of the government to have the transports loaded and ready for sailing by Friday at the latest. All of the troops from Camp De Soto, ex- cept the Second Georgia, have been moved to Fernandina. Yesterday fore- n-oon orders were received from Wash- ington to send the First, Second and Third cavalry, now here and at Lake- land, to Fernandina for encampment. The movement will begin immediately, and about a week will be necessary to transport them. The three regi- ments aggregate about 3,000 men, with 2,500 horses and mules. , , What disposition is to be made of the Second New York and the other regiments constituting the remnant of General Snyder’s division has not yet prices before going elsewhere. been given out. Several of the regi- ments of this division are pulling all the political strings possible to have them sent to the front. Yesterday the ?' First Ohio sent an urgent appeal. to Senator J. B. Foraker, begging him to go to headquarters and demand that they be sent to the front at once. Washington, July 26.--The war de- partment has decided to send the First Florida, Second Georgia and Fifth Maryland regiments, now at Tampa, to Porto Rico. Major General Brooke, commanding the First army corps, sailed yesterday to join General Miles at Porto Rico. The general embarked on the St. Louis and, as he will proceed immediately, he should arrive off Porto Rico some time on Friday or Saturday. The St. Louis will be accompanied on the run down the coast by the St. Paul, on which will be the headquarters of Gen- eral Hains. The remainder of the troops in Chickamauga will be em- barked at Hampton Roadsas rapidly as possible, and it is expected that the last of them will be aboard ship by Wednesday. . The reported boarding of a German steamer off San Juan by a. launch from an American naval vessel is taken at the war department to confirm. its be— lief that General Miles has arrived there. «It is recalled, however, that some of the vessels of the auxiliaryfieet have been blockading San Juan, andlt may be that it was a launch from one of these vessels that was seen by the German vessel. However,‘the department has no doubt that General Miles is off Porto Rico, and as all of the details of the expedition are moving with precision, there is every reason to believe that the troops will be all ashore by the end of the week. Colonel Becker. who is directly in charge of the transportation arrangements here, returned to Wash- ington from Fort Monroe entirely sat- isfied with the progress being made there in the embarkation of General Brooke’s command. The Fifth United States cavalry, now at Tampa, and Batteries A and C of Pennsylvania, now at Newport News, also have been ordered to Porto Rico. There was some doubt about the desti- nation of these batteries, and it was not until yesterday that the decision was reached to send them to join Gen- eral Miles, where they will be used in the attack on the defences of Porto Rico. MAY COME TO MONTAUK Dr Stark Examining the Point With a View to Making Army Camps. Washington, July 26.--Dr. Stark has been sent to Monrtauk, N. Y., to inves- tigate the conditions there. If the site is suitable, General Shaf- ter and the whole of hls'Fifth corps, now at Santiago, numbering 20,000 men, will, after the embarka-tion of the Spa- nish prisoners, be sent there immedi- ately. . They will recuperate until fall, when they will unite with the troops to be brought from Porto Rico and with about 100,000 men from the reserve camps, in the attack upon the city of Havana. The entire force sent against Hava- na will not be less than one hundred and fifty thousand men. For Santiago's Garrison. Washington, July 26.—-The transport Berlin left New Orleans yesterday with the First and Second immune reg-l- rnents on board. These troops are to do garrison duty at Santiago. The war department yesterday re- cedved a dispatch stating that the Span- ish hospital ship Alicante was ready to leave Martinique for Santiago. She will take the first installment of Span- ish prisoners. , More Volunteers to (30. Washington, July 26.--The war de- partment has decided to send the First Florida, Second Georgia and Fifth Ma.- ryland regiments, now at Tampa, to Porto Rico. The Fifth United States cavalry has also been ordered from Tampa to Po‘r- to Rico. New French Line Steamers. New York, July 26.-~The French line officials announced yesterday through General Manager Bocande that the company is having two new steamships built at St. Nazaire. They are to be called La Savoye and La. Lorraine. Each will cost $3,000,000 and is expected to make 22 knots. l mm~ rive to-day, and the work of loading- WATSON TO DO HIS WORK. No Foreign 'lnterference Expected With -0ur Efforts. ‘Washington, 'July 26.-—There is a general expression of gratification and satisfaction at the war conditions at this time. No foreign interference in the war is expected. The Watson fleet is to be much. more powerful than has yet been indicated, and if future developments should ren- der it necessary, this fleet, or a part of it could proceed through the Suez canal to go directly to Manila or to anticipate the movement of any hos- the fleet that might be organized for the Philippines. It is believed, how- ever, that when the character of the Watson fleet is realized, there will be no disposition on the part of any pow- er to risk interference with it. Moreover, the course to be pursued will not be such as to justify interfer- ence even by the least friendly of the powers. -The administration has not committed itself to any policy with respect to the Philippines, or any other of the Spanish possessions, except Por- to Rico and Cuba, and it is understood that it will not be so committed until the time comes when we are to deal with Spain on the subject of peace. It is positively asserted here that the president has not discussed directly or indirectly this subject with any repre- sentative of a foreign government. Ac- cording to public men who have visit- ed the president frequently, he has not discussed the terms upon which peace could be secured even with the most influential men in Songress. The question of what terms shall be accepted from Spain, it is believed, de- pends now, as it has from the first, upon the resistance which Spain offers during the war. According to the best information available, there is no pur- pose on the part of the administration to inflict upon Spain, in the expedition against her coast, any greater damage than may be absolutely necessary to bring the Spanish government to its senses. The one inexorable purpose is to either capture or destroy the Ca- mara fleet, and the other is to impress upon Spain an appreciation of the ab- solute futility of her carrying the war further. SURRENDER OF GARRlSONS Gen. Shatter Reports There Will 24,000 Spaniards to Be Sent Home; Washington, July 26.--Genera1 Shat- ter notified the war department in a. dispatch received at the department on Monday of the surrender of several Spanish garrisons.

Nearly 12,000 are here, 3,- 000 from San Luis, 6,000 from Guanta- namo, and over 2,000 at Sagua and Baracca. . . ‘ SHAFTER, ,5 Major General Commanding. Brim-Gen' Randall Qualifies. ,Washington, July 26.--Brigadier Gen. G. M. Randall, who has been'stationed at Fort St. Michael, Alaska, arrived in Washington yesterday and was at the war department. He but recently learn. ed that this government is at war with Spain. It had been nine months since he had received a letter or any sort of communication from the outside world, when on the 14th of June he heard of Dewey’s victory at Manila. That was the first he knew of the war. His rank in the army was lieutenant colonel. On the 14th of May he was confirmed by the Senate as brigadier general, but he did not learn of this fact until the 27th of June. '4 As soon as he was notified of his pro- motion be forwarded his acceptance. Coming to Washington as quickly as he could in obedience to orders, he arrived only Sunday night and qualified as brigadier general yesterday.» The Transport Arrives. New York, July 26.--The Atlantic Transport liner Minnewaska, the last of the seven vessel-s purchased by the United States government for $4,000,- 000, for use as troopships and trans- ports, arrived here yesterday from Lon- don, and as soon as unloaded will be fitted out for the army by Major Sum- merhayes. The other six steamships formerly owned by the Atlantic Trans— port line are now in commission and it was expected that the Manitoba, which was docked in Brooklyn, would sail for the South last evening with 160,000 pounds of oats and 210,000 pounds of hay on board, besides stores andpro- visions.

Sniffen of the pay corps sailed from New York to-day on the Olivette for Santiago, accompanied by three pay- masters. They will begin the payment of troops on their arrival, and in a very short time will be joined by other pay- masters, who will assist in paying of: General Shafter’s army and then will proceed to Porto Rico to pay ofl the army at General Miles.
