RHODES SHARPSHOOTERS.
Five Thousand of Them Want 90
Fight for Cuba,

Julius D. Rhodes, commander and or
gani2er of "Rhodes's American INDIE
pendent Sharpshooters," yesterday ten
dered Secretary of War Alger the serv-
ices Of 5000 able-bodied men, all of
whom are Americanborn citizens, and
have seen active service in the Ameri-
can Army. The brigade is composed of
five regiments of 1000 men each, and
each company has been drilled and is
ready for service on twenty-four hours
notice.
The motive of the offer was purely
natriotic. and each soldier of the brig
ade has declared a willingness to go TO
the front. even without pay. The colo
nels and staff officers and many OF
them are medal Of honor men.
Secretary Alger informed Command
or Rhodes that he would be glad TO
avail himself Of the services of the
independent Sharpshooters' in the
event OF war, and a complete roster OF
the brigade was left at the War De-
partment.
Can't. Rhodes conceived the idea Of
the sharpshooters four years ago, when
he organized / 900 men, whose services
he rendered the Brazilian government.
The offer was declined.
Capt. Rhodes lives in Buffalo. He
served eighteen months with the Fifth
New York Cavalry, and afterward was
with Company d. of the First United
States Cavalry. and Company NJ
Thirtv-first Maine. After the close OF
the war he accompanied Major Juan
d. Rerrdon, who fought under JuareZ
against Macmillan. He saw the exc
cution of the latter June =. 1867.
Commander Rhode has issued the toi-
lowing appeal to Americans:
In Justice 70 the voice Of the American people,
10 the honor Of our liberty loving republic, APP
peal to every American and Christian citizen TO
bring every action TO bear upon the cause OF SUIT
fering Cuba. and the thousands of innocent ana
suffering men, women and little children, who
are hourly diving for the want of food and Christ
like charity. / have made tender Of 300 able
bodied volunteers all disciplined soldiers of ma
tional State guards and other military service
TO the honorable Secretary of War, and as Yet not
so much as a note Of thanks have | received from
the executive officer OF for the loyalty OF 5UO
American-born volunteers, who are not only VIII
ing to eSpouse the cause of Americas honor, but
are willing to give their lives, if necessary. to
yndicate Americas honor, and avenge the death
of go brave American sailors, whose voices are
silent in the wreckage Of the Maine, through the
treacherv and perfdy OF SpaniardS, whose cruelty
has been felt wherever the foot OF the vie ny
enaS ever touched the shores of North or South
America As the organizer of an American indie
pendent brigade Of sharpshootcrs can say with
the sanction Of every man and ofhcer OF my COM
nland that If the American people Will supply us
with Winchester repeating rifles we VIII land
on the shores Of Cuba. without one piece OF ar
tillery and drive the Spanish muTdeTers INTO the
Gulf Of Mexico without one dollars remuneTa-
ton from our economical Administration.

THE STRATEGIC BOARD.
Plans for the Landing of Americas
Troops I'm Cuba.

Plans for the combined operations OF
the Army and Navy in case of war with
Spain are being discussed by the strategic
board.
The board was appointed some days
ago, as announced in The Times at the
time, and consists OF Capt. A. 5. Barker,
representing the Navy, and Lieut.. Col. A.
L. Wagner, representing the Army. Its
meeting yesterday was confined to dis
custom Of the point at which troops
should be collected fer prompt transpor-
tation to Cuba in time of war.
1t will be the duty Of the Navy TO take
a port in Cuba and strongly fortify il,
and when this Is accomplished TO convey
steamers containing troops from some
gulf port, and upon the landing of the
troops it will commence offensive opera
tons against Havana.
There is reason to believe that the de-
partments plans contemplate the re-
duction Of the city Of Matanzas by both
fleets under the command of Capt. W. 7.
Sampson. and its occupation by the Army.
on account OF the fortiticatiOns of Ha-
Vana and the mines in the haTbOr, there
is no expectation in the minds of the Of
ficials that the Navy alone will be able
to capture that city. II is therefore neces-
sary that the Army should land and take
Havana in the rear while the fleet con-
tinued its offensive work from the sea.
Matanzas is within fifty miles of Ha-
vana. There are no natural obstacles
TO prevent the marching Of troops from
that city to Cubas capital There is a
railroad connecting the two cities, but
this, of course, would be destroyed. The
roadbed could be taken advantage of by
our engineers. however, TO lay new
tracks, and thus facilitate the transpor-
tation of supplies 20 the troops.
Capt. Barker and Lieut.. Col. Wagner
have under consideration the best point
on the Gulf at which troops could be
gathered in the shortest possible time,
placed on board transports and sent to
Cuba.
Three cities are mentioned: Tampa.
Fla; Mobile Ala. and New Orleans. 1t
is recognized that the port selected must
in the first place be a railroad center; in
the second be fairly well protected. and
in the third have a fairly good harbOr.
These three points are railroad termi-
nails and while not very well protected,
are being put in condition TO resist at
tack. and each has sufficient water TO
accommodate protected cruisers.
1t is believed that the board will select
the point nearest to Matanzas, proba-
bly, Tampa. in order that the least pos
sible amount of time may be spent in
the transportation of the troops.
The board will also probably recon-
mend that transports be obtained. and
for this purpose, it is pointed out, more
excursion steamers and other passenger
carrying vessels could be utilized.
There are plenty of these craft along
the Southern coast. 1t would not be
necessary. of course. 10 arm these yes
sells as a strong squadron would attend
them and prevent them from falling into
the hands of the Spaniards.
