TAMPA, Fla, May 5.-1t is now al.
most certain that Brigadier General
Wade will have active command of the
United States troops in the field in
Cuba. Both Generals Wade and
Shafter will, it is said, accompany the
expedition when it sails, but the latter,
although the ranking general, will not
direct the movements Of the troops in
the field. Arrangements for the EN-.
barkation of the troops are being
pushed with the utmost vigor. The
Florida and Olivette are being put in
shape for the reception of the soldiers.
and the Mascotte, which came in dur.
ing the day, will be taken in hand and
prepared for service as a transport.
Nearly every regiment in camp had q
rigid inspection during the day and in.
struction was given to have every thing
in shape for breaking camp on short no.

It is barely possible that the United
States forces will be actually en- route
fore Cuba befor the first of next week.
But four of the necessary transports
are as yet on hand and it will probably
be Sunday before all of the boats are
here and have received their coal and

Instead of n mine il is an open quarry or req
hematite iron ore, which is detached from its
he'd far more easily than stone in a quarry. The
ore lies in a horizontal stratum. three miles IN
length and more than n quarter OF mile In
breadth and is about five feet in thickness.
This bed is covered on the surface by ABOUT
two feet of rock. This is just striped off. and
sections of the ore laid bare. Then, by blasting
masses Of the ore are detached. and long ter
races are formed. rising in shelves above each
other. and in these the men go TO work with
croWbars. pickaxes, wedges and shovels At
certain intervals along these terraces the steam
drill is at work or the sedse hammer or
iumper making holes which, when charged with
dynamite are exploded by electricity.
On penetrating this first stratum OF ore bed
Of rock is reached some three or four feet thick,
similar TO the surface rock. When this rock
stratum is pierced, another bed Of iron is
reached OF about the same thickness as the
first For anything yet known there may be q
third iron ore stratum underneath this bed.
