WASHINGTON, June l3.---Under, com
mand OF Major General Shafter, the
First division of the United States
army sailed last night from Key West
for Santiago de Cuba TO beaiege and
capture that town. The army trans
ports, thirty In number, left Port
Tampa Saturday and stopped at Key
West, The conveying warships, mum
bering between sixteen and nineteen,
were ready when the transports mr..
rived al Key West,
The troops should arrive Off Santi-
ago by Wednesday night, supposing
the feet proceeds at eight knots speed
and landing operations should begin
by Thursday, for General Shafter will
not keep his men cooped upon ship
board moment longer than necessary.
IL Is not believed that they will be
landed at Caimanera, the point on
Guantanamo bay, where the American
flag now flies over the heads Of Samp-
sons marines, as that place, while well

as a harbor Of refuge for the American
warships, IL not particularly we'll

operations
In ten days. time, unless unforeseen
obstacles are encountered, the move
ment upon Porto Rico will begin.
This will be OF more formidable
character than that which goes with
the Santiago expedition, for the plans
contemplate joint attack upon the
San Juan Notifications by the army
and navy, and these Notifications are
so powerful that heavily armored ships
only can be sent against them at the
beginning, Therefore, II 10 believed
that SIMPSONS battleships will head

up Of nearly twenty regiments Of reg
ular infantry, OF 500 to $50 men each,

artillery. The total force Of regular
infantry was about II, 900 men. There
were also two regiments of volun-
teer infantry, about 1000 men
altogether, the Second regiment

aud two squadrons each from the
First, Third, Sixth, Ninth and Tenth
cavalry, about 1000 men, eight troops
Of volunteer cavalry, taken from Roos-
evelt's rough riders, $50 men; four
batteries Of light artillery, 400 men
and sixteen guns; two batteries Of
heavy artillery, 200 men and sixteen
guns; the battalion of engineers, 200
men; signal and hospital corps, etc.,
about 300 men; grand total of about
1900 men.
The regulars were practically picked

LONDON, June 10. - Rear Admiral
Lord Charles Beresford has issued an
appeal to the press for an increase OF
the navy, He says; "The war between
the United States and Spain has taught
us useful lessons, It has taught us the
absolute necessity Of complete and
thorough organization previous to
war, instead Of trusting to chance, 1t
has taught us the value Of proper
supply Of cruisers and the ineffective
ness Of obsolete guns against the range
and accuracy Of modern weapons, No
other nation has ship on the effective
list armed with muzzle-loading guns,

The Annual Farce.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:


l notice in the papers the statement that
the Commissioners have concluded to en-
force the law against the newsboys, etc.
for making needless noise or outcry,' and
disturbing the public. l do not believe
there is another city in the country where
this nuisance exists to the same extent as
here, and the newsboys are not half as bad
in that respect as the hucksters, who go
about the city offering the stale fish, ber
ries and vegetables, which cannot be sold
in the markets-the refuse.
They often go in pairs, first one and then
the other yelling at the top of their voices,
so that citizens sitting on their porches
cannot hear each other speak, and il a citi-
zen speaks to them about it, they are sim
ply told to "go to Ill., as l was by one of
them but a few days ago! This is no new
thing, and year after year complaint has
been made to the Commissioners and to
the police, but in vain.
1t would be laughable We're 1t not a seri-
Gus matter to see in the papers every few
months the announcement that the au-
thoritieS have concluded to enforce the
law. first for one thing and then for an
other, but which, after a little spurt is
never done.
What are laws for if not to be enforced
not occasionally, but all the time? What
officials, police, etc, for, If not for that
l have no faith that this new squirt will
amount to anything, judging from the past.
though heaven knows there is plenty of
reason for action.
