IL is only two years ago that this

votes OF success ia presidential elec
tion. Had Il not been for the enor-
nous amount of money expended IN

II Is no buncombe, no Idle talk, which

Of our enemies that silver as a political

supplies, ETC., and are now either ut
Key West or on their way to reinforce
Skaters army. Included In these eX-
petitions are some batteries Of artil-
lery. In all these forces constitute
about $500 or 5000 men.
Gen. Miles in the course If brief
talk said today that Gen. Shafter
might contemplate the withdrawal of
his forces in the direction Of Siboney,
where they would be near the sea.
This. however. would be temporary
expedient. enabling the soldiers to rest
end prepare for the work ahead.
Orders were today issued to rush the
reinforcements to Gen. Shafter so
there will be 49, 900 to $4,000 men under
his command within the next ten days,
and sooner if this can be accomplished.
This is exclusive Of the insurgents,
of which Garcia has been able to bring
to Skaters aid approximately 1000
men.
There were $4,000 men and officers
in the expedition that set out from
Tampa less than a month ago. These
have since been reinforced by the
troops Of Gen. Duffield's command,
amounting to 5000 men and consist

ing of the Thirty-third and Thirty
fourth Michigan and the Ninth Mas
sachusetts regiments. The first 1900
Of Gen. Z uffield's brigade have been
with Shafter for week, while the re-
mainder have just debarked.
During the past week a second ex-
petition of large proportions was
scheduled to leave Tampa carrying a
good portion Of Gen. Simon Snyder's
division Of the Fourth corps as rein
forcements for Gen. Shafter.
Assistant Secretary Meiklejohn said
today that eleven transports were
available to carry Snyder's troops and
he assumed that probably 5,OOt Of
them were now probably on their
way in these transports to join those
in Santiago province. though on this
point he was without official advices.
The other troops sent to the aid Of
Gen. Shafter will, according to infor-
nation here, be the main body Of Gen.
Snyder's division and such other regi-
ments now at Tampa as are best
equipped and ready for active work.
Gen. Brooke, commanding at Chick
amauga, has already received instruc-
lions to have fifteen regiments pre-
pared for immediate movement.
Gen. Snyder's division, which is I'M
der orders for Santiago, includes the
following regiments:
Eleventh and Nineteenth infantry of
the regular army, the First District of
Columbia, the Second New York, the
Fifth Maryland, the Third Pennsyl-
vania, the One Hundred and Fifty
seventh Indiana and the First Ohio.
Gen. Garrettson's brigade, now at
Camp Alger, Va, Is under orders for
Santiago. Garrettson's brigade is
composed of the Sixth Illinois, Sixth
Massachusetts and the Eighth Ohio
volunteer regiments.
The army officials, feeling that they
have profited by the experiences in
preparing the first expedition, say bet
ter time will be made with those to
follow.
The Mohawk and the Mississippi,
two vessels of the American Transport
line just acquired by the government,
have facilities for about 1900 men and
animals and probably will be utilized
in sending aid to Shafter. They are
now at New York under orders for
Tampa.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-07-04

about to take place. Gen. Corbin, in
a few minutes, hurried back to the war
department, where he made public such
portions of Gen, Skaters dispatch as
we've compatible with the public inter-
est.
Assistant Secretary Meiklejohn, who
has thorough knowledge of the trans
port service, was hastily summoned to
the White house.
The conference lasted about fifteen
minutes. Gen. Miles, who was at the
White house, said achievements
would be fastened to the as.
sistance Of Gen. Shafter, and. If
it was necessary, these would aggre-
gate $4,000, though the general had no
idea that this number would be need
ed. The combined forces under Gen.
Shafter, he said, amounted to APPROX
imately $4,000, while those available to
the Spaniards were probably $4,000 SOL
diers. This included, however, the men
at Holguin, presumably about 10000
and the force under another Spanish
general amounting to about 5000 men.
Gen. Miles did not say whether the
two bodies of men last referred to had
actually Joined Gen. Linares. but tba
understanding here is that thew have
not. Col. HUMPHREYS is in charge of
the transport service with Shafter's
army. and he will send back to Tampa
the vessels that can be spared as rap
Idly as possible. In fact, word has
peen received that the transports had
started for the United States this
morning.
IL possible the war department will
SEND $4,000 men from Tampa on these
transports. Six vessels have recently
loaded with men, ammunition. arms.

SPANISH SIDE OF 1T.
Defense of the OutpOsts of Santiago
Was Desperate.

Deiehse VI the OutpOsts or Santiago
Was Desperate.
MADRID. July 3.-The government
has received cipher dispatches from
Cuba. the contents Of which have not
been made public It is stated, how
ever, that the Spaniards made a
heroic resistance to the American
forces, which made an attack on the
Spanish outposts at Santiago.
Gen. de RCy. who commanded ait Ca
ney, fought with the greatest courage,
setting his men an example by leading
the advance. It was under similar cir
cun1stances that Gen. Linares was
wounded.
According to official dispatches the
Spanish forces fell back on the city of
Santiago in order to await reinforce
1nents.
The dispatches do not mention the
death of Gen. Vara de Roy, which 1t is
rulnored has occurred.
Private dispatches from Santiago
give the following additional details:
Gen. Skaters army, composed of IT,
600 infantry and eighty-two siege guns
of various caliber, attacked the Span
ish positions before Santiago, 5000
rebels, under Garcia, assisting them.
The Spaniards had only 1000 men,
partly volunteers. Our troops fought
with heroic courage. The battle lasted
three hours and the Spanish were then
compelled to abandon the trenches and
to fall back on Santiago. The retreat
was conducted in perfect order.
Our losses were very heavy and the
enemy's were enormous. The list of
our wounded includes Gen. Linares.
Gen. Vara de Roy. Col. Ordonez and
Majors Amadrid and Domdngues and
Arraiz, the latter being Gen. Linares'
aide de camp
The American attack upon Ell Caney
was very severe. The position was de-
tended by Gen. Vara de Roy with 500
men. The enemy was at first repulsed
but ultimately renewed the attack"
"A later dispatch says: '"The Ameri
cans fought eight against one. The
Spaniards defended themselves heroi
cally. The struggle is becoming diff
cult, 1000 Spaniards having to meet
$4,000 of the enemy"
An official dispatch from Havana no
ceived here says:
THE American forces landed at
Cayabo, but were repulsed and forced
to re-embark hastily by a Spanish do
tachment upon which the An,ar;oa
vessels fired twenty shots without
effect"

sibility to measure their conditions,
bury their dead, care for their wound
ed and prepare for the graver conflict
that is to come.
The president and his war advisers
remained calm throughout the trying
experiences of the day. All their at
tention was directed to the work of
preparation.
The future movements of Gen. Shat
ter are well established They have
been made known in his dispatch, but
1t is deemed advisable not to make
this portion public as it would serve
to advise the enemy of the American
plans. 1t can only be said that Gen.
Skaters forces will be strongly and
favorably located with the guns of the
American warships serving as an ad-
ditional protection to their front. Re-
Inducements will be hurled to them,
which will be ample for any emergency,
whether it be storm or siege.
filed with thousand dead and wound
ed the condition there is desperate,
even critical. There is little likelihood
Of any Spanish sally in force under
such circumstances, but the possibility
still remains that the Spanish garrison
may seek relief by evacuating the city
10 ba toi
the north.
The American plan is for offensive,
vigorous action, and with the full re-
sources of men and arms at the com
mand Of the country. AS Gen. Miles
said, $4,000 men, if need be, will move
on Santiago; if more are needed, then
1t will be $4,000.
The lesson Of Santiago has served
only to enkindle a greater earnestness
through every avenue of official life at
the capital And there is a deep set
determination to meet heroic condi-
lions with heroic treatment.
Following the receipt of Gen. Shat
ters telegram there was a hurried war
conference at the White house. Secre-
tary Alger. accompanied by Gen. Cor
bin, reached there a few minutes be-
core 1 o'clock and was Immediately
closeted with the president. Secretary
Alser brought the Shafter dispatch
with MIN and also maps and other data
necessary for the important discussion
