NOT MUCH DOING
Little Progress Made in
the War This Week.
TROOPS SAIL TO CUBA.
Perilous Position of Mar
ines near Guantanamo.

"Getting ready to do something is still
about the only report concerning the war.
The Santiago expedition which started to
sail from Tampa last week was overhauled
and brought back on the strength OF re-
ports that threatening Spanish feet was
at hand. This feet turned out to be a
phantom. The expedition finally did
leave Tampa Monday afternoon and Tues
day morning. 1t numbered 80 transports
conveyed by IA war vessels. 1t comprised
Ii, 900 troops under command of Gen Shat
ter. All the troops save two regiments
were regulars. 1t will round the west end
OF Cuba and ought to reach the vicinity of
Santiago the latter part OF the week.
Admiral Sampson's fleet is still off San
tiago. The only move of Importance has
been the securing OF control of lower
Guantanamo bay, 35 miles east of Santa
go. Here 800 marines were landed and the
American flag raised. They have since
been constantly subjected to bushwhack-
ing attacks from the Spaniards about, who
greatly outnumber them. Six have been
killed and but for the guns OF our war yes
sells they could not hold their station. The
Spanish loss has been considerable as Is
OF their dead have been counted. 1t is in
tended to land the Shafter expedition here
and make 1t base for operations against
Santiago. The Spanish fleet Is still inside
the harbor. The capture OF the city may
not be an easy matter. The heat is terri
BILE for our troops and sailors, but their
courage remains good.
An expedition is being made ready at
Jacksonville for descent on Porto Rico as
soon as Santiago falls and the American
feet is liberated for action.
The volunteers are still being put thro'
the sprouts at Chickamauga and the other
great camps. Recruiting under the new
call for 5000 is going on in most states,
Vermont being an exception.
Four steamers left San Francisco yester-
day, carrying $500 troops to Manila.
About 5000 more are nearly ready to leave.
Dewey awaits their arrival before sum-
moning the Philippine capital to surren-
der. The insurgents are pressing the
Spaniards hard from the land side and the
city may fall before our troops arrive.
At Washington, Congress has passed
the new revenue bill and it is law. 1t
will raise about S100,0O0,0OO year more
than the present law, largely by taxing
beer and tobacco, though stamp taxes fig-
ure prominently in it. The 200, 600, 900 OF
bonds provided for will be offered to the
people at per cent. The annexation OF
Hawaii looks more favorable.
