NEW YORK, May B0.--A dispatch to
The Tribune from Washington says:
Orders have at last gone forward to
Major General Shafter at Tampa to
embark the greater portion Of his corps,
Including all the regulars and few of
the most efficient volunteer regiments,
On board the transports gathered at
that place, and the aggressive military
movement which has been SO frequently
predicted and as often delayed for one
cause or another, will be accomplished
before the end Of this week. The
strongest ships Of Admiral SIMPSONS
reorganized squadron will convoy the
expedition and cover it's landing OF q
point now definitely designated.
Simultaneously the most rigid cen.
sorship of press dispatches that has SO
far been undertaken by the government
will be put into operation at Tampa
and Key West at once and no message
relating to the
Movements of Troops or ships,
or in any way speculating upon the ex-
pedition will be permitted on the wires.
If this means of preventing publication
of information which would be, exceed.
ingly valuable to Spain is not fully sue
cessful, the censorship will be promptly
extended to the mails.
1t can confidently be asserted that
beyond the secretary Of war and the
secretary of the navy the president will
permit no civilian to enjoy his conf.
dence in this matter until landing on
foreign territory shall actually have
been accomplished and General Shafter
himself will have sealed orders, whose
contents will be known only to General
Miles and General Corbin until the ex.
pedition Is safely at sea.
