THOROUGH PREPARATION NEEDED.
THE UNITED STATES TROOPS NOT READY TO

TAKE THE FIELD YET IN CUBA.
To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Your very timely article in this mornings
paper ought TO be duplicated by all tho journals
throughout the country
The events of tho last few weeks have shown
how III prepared to put army in tho
field Weeks have elapsed since the Governors of
the various States knew tho call would DO made
by the President OF the United States for volun-
teers yet the troops which now being sent
away from tho various camps throughout the DIFF
ferent States are. according TO the accounts pub
l,shed daily in the newspapers. badly equipped for
the service required Of them
II Is well known 10 tho people who had rela-
tiyes in the list that II only able TO leave
Camp Black by taking some OF the equipment and
clothing belonging 10 other regiments. and this
seems to bo true with regard to all the regi
ments which have gone out from the different
States. There has been no proper training and
there cannot be for some time OF these various
separate troops gathered from all parts OF tho
United States. To send them to Cuba under these
circumstances would be to simply repeat the
fortunate lesson OF tho Civil War. when tho
disciplined troops Of the North met such serious
disaster at Bull Run. Then. now. the country
was constantly demanding the sending forward OF
tho troops. although the officers In charge OF tho
same knew that the movement was premature.
The cry then ION to Richmond" II Is now
ION TO Cuba!'
1t ought to be borne in mind that our troops
will meet sixty to seventy thousand Spanish SOL
ders in Havana. who have been there for moro than
year. They are used to the climate they will
fight behind intrenchments which by this time
doubtedly protect the land side OF Havana. and
these works can only be carried by assault. Our
men will wilt under the hot summer suns OF the
tropics, and 1t will be useless waste Of lfc to
attempt to send these troops without proper
preparation. unacclimated as they will be. 10 meet
the Spanish forces that now massed in and
about Havana.
Nobody can form public sentiment 40 quickly ana
effectually the newspapers of the country, and
your timely article will help very much in this
