Appearance of Fever Presents a Hard
Problem to Administration.

Problem to Administration.
Although the reported appearance Of a
few cases of typhoid fever among our
troops In front Of Santiago presents ii per-
picking problem to the president aud his
advisers, it is almost certain to result | II
tho tcmrorary removal of practically ell our
land forces from Cuba as promptly MS pos
siblc after the surrender of Toral's army.
In this connection the question OF with
holding for the present the expedition now
being fitted out against Porto Rico has
been under serious consideration, but no
positive conclusion. it is thought, tas been
reached. An investigation with respect
to climatic conditions at San Juan, how
ever, has convinced the officials tint there
will be practically no danger to our troops
there from the yellow fever, which
nually prevails in nearly llparts of Cuba.
None of the troops now in front Of Santi-
ago, it is understood, will take part in this
expedition, but will be brought north to
remain until October, when it is expected
the danger from Cuban fever will have
passed.
