PORTO RICO NEXT.
Active Preparations for the Invasion Re.
Ing Made.

Ing Made.
New York. June ia special to the
Times from Washington says:
Now that the Santiago expedition is
under way with General Shafter at it's
head to cooperate with Admiral Samp-
son in the reduction of that city and
the capture of the Spanish ships i'm its
harbor. the energies of the war depart
ment are expected to be directed to-
ward preparations for the invasion of
Porto Rico. While these preparations
will be pushed forward as rapidly as
possible, there In no reason to believe
that any extraordinary haste will be
resorted to. The volunteers at Jack
sonville and Tampa. who are expected
to form part OF the army of invasion
for Porto Rico. are not in condition to
be sent to that island. and IL will take
a little time to put them in shape.
IL is true that the progress made at
Jacksonville. where General Fitzhugh
Lee is in command. has been much
more satisfactory than at some of the
other camps. Already clothing for u
500 men has been delivered there and
owing to the abundant railroad facili-
ties no such congestion and confusion
as occurred at Tampa in the distribu-
tion OF uniforms, equipment and sup
plies have been encountered. This en-
courages the hope that the volunteers
there will be all ready for the invading
campaign in less time than was re-
quired at Tampa and Is being taken at
Chickamauea.
1t is remembered that Admiral
Sampson found that the reduction of
the forts and batteries at San Juan
was no child's play, and that he sue
ceeded In doing little damage to them in
three hours bombardment II is rea-
soned, too. that there may be more
Spanish troops in the island than Lieu
tenant Whitney saw. At any rate, the
war department feels that while II has
the men II would be wise to send
enough to Porto Rico to meet and de-
feat twice as many Spaniards as are
believed to be on the island. The larger
the force the more decisive, and possi-
bly, the less bloody will be the work
of capturing the place. For these rea =
sons probably 10000 or $1,000 men will
be sent to the island
General Fitzhugh Lee rs expected to
command a part of the Porto Rican
expedition. but this is not taken as
eliminating him from the main Cuban
campaign. There will be plenty of op-
portunity for him to take the part he Is
anxious to take in the real work of
freeing Cuba when the campaign I'm
the lesser island is over. The story
that he is to be made governor general
of Porto Rico is discredited. because of
Its inappropriateness.
The navy department has been ad-
vised of the movements and is thus in
expectation OF supplying the convoy for
the fleet to Porto Rico. This will be a
more formidable force than that which
goes with the Santiago army, for the
plans contemplate Joint attack upon
the San Juan fortifications by the
army and navy. and the fortifcations
are SO powerful that only heavy ar
rnored ships can be sent against them
at the beginning. Therefore IL is be-
lieved that Admiral SIMPSONS battle
ships will head this fleet.

and those who have given it any con-
sideration are divided in their opinion.
It seems if there is any hopes OF such
measure ever passing congress the ap-
preaching one with a republican ma
iority in both branches will be able to
deal with the question with satisfac-
ton to all who are entitled to such
pension.
But there is a responsibility resting
upon every eX-slave who is asking the
government for pension. 1st, they
should form themselves into clubs, un
derstand what they want and apply
the means to get it. Every man and
woman who believes in justice and fair
play mus, agree that the ex-slaves are
far more deserving of a pension than
the old soldier. The former toiled and
made the Republic, and when it was
being destroyed stepped in and helped
to preserve it.

organizations bearing the name of
