General Miles Leads the Way to Porto
Rico.
Washington, July 1s.-After three
days of consultation between the
President, Secretary Alger and Gen.
Brooke, during which there was
frequent communication with Gen.
Miles at Siboney, the details of the
Porto Rico expedition were perfected
and the expedition itself was gotten
under way, Gen. Miles, with some
artillery and troops, sailing today
for Porto Rico on the converted
cruiser Yale, to be followed quickly
by an army of about 5000 men.
1t is estimated that General Miles
should arrive by Wednesday night
at the po1t selected for the landing
and wiz Roist the American flag at
once Der Porto Rican soil. The
point chosen for his landing is kept
secret, AS the General will land be-
fore the full body of the expedition
is at hand, and it is consequently
not desirable that the enemy should
be able to assemble IA superior force
to meet him.
