Especial Dispntch to Tho Post and New York

dor Dennctt)
Washington, May 23.--Every indication
in the war department seems to confirm
the statement made in this mornings Post
and Herald that active operations by the
army would begin in Cuba within week
There Is no intention on the part OF Pres
ident Mckinley to delay the invasion until
fall II the Spanish fleet Is cooped up in
the harbor Of Santiago. as the naval au-
thorities seem TO think, nothing will delay
the invasion.
Commodore Schlcy will be amply able to
keep Admiral Cervera in the barbor and
the vessels of Admiral Sampson can assist
in the combined attack on Havana.
On the other hand, II the Spanish fleet
has again eluted the American vessels. the
attack on Havana Will be delayed. but
troops viii land In Cuba to prepare u base
of supplies.
New York, May ga Washington spe-
clal says: 1t Is learned on good authority
that the Cuban invasion will begin at once.
II is understood that the first detachment
left Tampa on transports today. All oiil-
cial verifcation OF that alleged TACT Is re-
fused at the war department. There is no
doubt, however that If transports did
not sail today they Will sail tomorrow, and
each succeeding day, until $4,000 meu are
landed The war department Is prepared
to transport $1,000 troops in thirty-siN
hours.
There viii be two landing spots, one
east Of Havana and one west. The regu-
lars will BIO first to go. They viii be ac-
companied by tho battalion OF marines
which went TO Key West on the Panther
from New York month ago.
The landing parties will be covered By
gunboats, which viii batter down forth
fcatlons thai may exist, shell the woods
and underhrugh thoroughly. and then make
way for an unimpeded debaikation
The war department is confident that
Havana can be taken by land force within
four weeks, The military plan of opera
ton contemplates the throwing OF Il ueavy
