VIII Swell Shafter' S
Army to $4,000 Men,
VIII Have Enough to
Cope With Any Force.

1 the 81 Virginia Regiments. in all about
! 1000 mon.
Expeditions win follow rapidly BY
way of Tamapa, for while Fernaudina
and Miami are considered to have
many good points for concentrating
| troops. yet army officials are now sat
islied that Tampa can be retained with
advantage as the main point Of en-
barkation
Tho next forces to go viii include
those Of Brig. Gen. Garretson of the
ID brigade of the 1at Division. ID Army
Corps. embracing the 9th Illinois, the
9Th Massachusetts and Sth and 9th
Ohio Regiments.
Brig. Gen. Guy V. Henry. dis
tinguishcd cavalry officer of the legu-
lar army, arrived here. today, from
Tampa, and the present plans are for
Gen. Henry to command a division,
made up Of the brigades of Gems. Duff
field and Garretson. this division, COM
prising 5000 men. to be for the speedy
reinforcement of Gen. Shafter
II Will at once swell the American
forces at Santiago de Cuba to about
2l,o00 men. But the expeditions will
not stop at that number, as there is a
determined purpose to send forward 4
sufficient force to crush any Spanish
command which can be concentrated
at that point
The reports from Santiago that about
41,000 Spanish troops are in and about
the city. do not agree with the reliable
estimates in the possession of the war
department. According to the latter
figures there are not to exceed 1900
Spanish troops at Santiago. while 100
miles away to the northwest at Hol-
gum. the Spanish corps commander.
Gen. Pando. has 10000 men.
The war department is satisfied that
the Cuban forces under Gen. Garcia
can keep Pando from reinforcing San
tiago Should this not be accomplished
the Spanish forces at Santiago would
be augmented to about $4,000 men.
They are Well armed. well disciplined
seasoned to the climate, know the
fighting grounds of that locality, and
are probably as good an all around
fighting force as the Spaniards can
bring to bear.
There is no purpose on the part of
authorities here to leave Gen. Shafter
with an inadequate force to meet these
seasoned Spanish soldiers.
Up TO the close of office hours, today,
neither the war nor navy departments
had received any detailed information
as to the arrival Of troops at Santiago.
The entire information, today, was con-
fined to the one brief dispatch from
Capt. Allen Of the signal service, to
Gen. Greeley, stating that the troops
transports had arrived. This was
enough. however, to start DaSelesS ru-
mors that the actual landing of troops
was in progress, and one report stated
that troops were landing under heavy
fire from the Spanish forces.
Secretary Alger and General Miles
disposed of these reports. saying that
no such information was at hand, and
Secretary Long made the same dis
clamor for the navy department. 1t
