New YORK, May ga special
dispatch to the Tribune from Wash
ington says:
Orders have at last gone forward to
Major Gen. Shafter at Tampa to en-
bark the greater portion of his corps,
including all the regulars and few Of
the most efficient volunteer regiments
on board the transports gathered at
that place, and the aggressive military
movement, which has been so fire.
quently predicted and as often de-
layed for one cause or another, will be
an accepted fact before the end of this
week. The strongest units of Admiral
Sampson reorganized squadron will
convoy the expedition aud cover its
landing at a point now definitely
designated.
simultaneously the most rigid cen
sorship of press dispatches that has
so far been undertaken by the Govern
ment will be put into operation at
Tampa and Key West tonight, and
no message relating to the movements
of troops or ships or in any way spec
ulating upon the expedition will be
permitted on the wires. If this means
of preventing publication Of informa-
tion which would be exceedingly
valuable to Spain is not fully success
full, the censorship will be promptly
extended to the mails.
1t can be confidently asserted that
beyond the Secretary of War and the
Secretary of the Navy the President
will permit no civilian to enjoy lis
confidence in this matter un il a
landing on foreign territory shall have
been actually accomplished, and Gen.
Shafter himself will have sealed
orders, whose contents will be known
only to Gen. Miles and Gen. Corbin
until the expedition is safely at sea.
Admiral SIMPSONS sole instructions
will be to guard the expedition and to
CO. operate with Gen. Shafter under
the latter's direction.
