conduct of the war by the board Of
strategy, but the President has heard
good deal from the Army during the last
day or two about the mistakes the board
of strategy is making.
No formal protest has been made TO the
President against any specific acts Of the
board of strategy. but il is learned upon
excellent authority that the Presidents
attention was called to the fact that all
the operations are one-sided, being en-
tirely of naval character. Army officers
and some members of Congress have ex-
pressed the opinion to the President that
the sea fighting which has been INDUCED
in has not resulted in any appreciable
progress in the undertaking Of the United
States to free Cuba; several lives have
been lost, a few prizes taken and the
actual freedom Of Cuba remains as far
away from ACCOMPLISHMENT as it was
when the war begun.
The President has been advised to
change the plans of the board of strate-
gy to the extent Of ordering the invasion
of Cuba by a land force sufficiently large
to make short. sharp and decisive work
Of the Spanish forces in Cuba. It is said
tonight that he is giving serious consid-
Grafton to the recommendation.
The plan which has been submitted 10
him is 10 call m the services of the Samp-
son and Schley fleets 10 escort the trans
ports from Key W est 10 the point on the
Cuban coast selected for the landing Of
the invading army, leaving enough yes
sells 10 maintain the blockade at Havana.
The transportation Of all the troops that
viii be necessary TO make short work of
the Spanish forces in Cuba viii not con
sumo more than three days at the out
side. Active campaigning can be begun
within forty-eight hours from the land
ing of the Army on Cuban soil.
The task of driving out the Spaniards
could then proceed on both land and sea.
the warships bombarding Havana or en-
gaging Spanish warships, if any appear
while the troops could drive the Span
iards from the cities down TO the sea.
where there is no avenue OF escape. This
is known TO be the plan favored by Gen.
Miles and most OF the generals who will
command the invading troops.
The most reliable reports show that
there are 500 Spanish regulars and VOL
unteers in the island. divided as follows:
Havana. .. 600: CienfuegOs, L, 900; Matan-
zas, 600; Cardenas 1000.
1t is pointed out by Army officers that
the United tSates forces by concerted land
operations could compel the concentration
of all the Spanish forces al Havana. and
with the cooperation Of he navy the war
could be speedily ended instead of drag
ging out for an indefinite period. Gen
Miles and nj sstaff are ready and even
anxious TO proceed 10 the front and make
short work of the actual war

The War Department Is now confident
that the entire volunteer army of 125.000
men viii be on the move by next Sat
urday. When the President issued his
call on the 23d Of April he was informed
by the War Department that ii would re-
quire about four weeks TO raise the re-
quired number Of men. He is said TO have
doubted these assurances then. but 1t
looks now as though the War Department
was right in its prediction.
The greatest problem that the war Off
cials are confronted with is the matter Of
equipment and their attention is accord
ingly being directed towards these MAJ:
