Roosevelt writes from Santiago under
date of July 23 as follows:
1--WE earnestly hope that you will send
the cavalry division including the
most of the regulars, and at any rate
Rough Riders who are as good as any
regulars, and three times as good a.
any state troops, to Porto Rico. There
are 1900 effective men in this division.
If those who are left behind were
Joined to them we could land at Porto
Rico, in this cavalry division, close to
1000 men, who would be worth easily
any 10000 national guards armed with
black powder Springhelds or other
archaic weapons"
The following reply was cabled TO
Colonel Roosevelt:
THE regular army, the volunteer
army and the Rough Riders have done
well, but l suggest that unless you
want to spoil the effects and glory of
your victory you make no invldlous
comparisons. The Rough Riders are no
better than other volunteers. They
had an advantage in their arms. for
which they ought to be very grateful"
