ing strongly urged to begin this move.
ment before any serious attempt in
made upon Havana. His advisers point
to what they regard as the danger of o
retreat on the part of the Spanish gov
ernment.
1t might be possible, it is thought, for
the Spanish to assert that they accept
In fun the demands of this govern
ments ultmatum and withdraw their
troops from Cuba. In such case the
United states would be placed in the
disaGrceable position of continuing tc
make war upon the country which
holds out the flag of truce The d.
lemma that would confront us in such
case would be how to secure Porto
Rico without offending against inter-
national law, for it can be safely ac-
certed as the truth that the admins
tration is determined that Spanish rule
in the western hemisphere shall cease.
Now that General Miles has gone II
can be stated that for the last five days
he has held frequent conferences with
prominent Porto Rican, thoroughly
conversant with the situation in that
island and able to give exact informa-
ton as to the Spanish strength, de-
fences, etc, there.
