PORTO RICO OPERATIONS.
Niles Planning Campaign Suited to the
Conditions.


New York, July IA Tribune special
from Washington says:
While the details Of General Miles plan
Of operation in Porto Rico are not divulg-
ed, 1t is known that they are wholly un-
like those necessltated by the peculiar
conditions at Santiago.
Instead OF having a single city as an
objective, General Miles has got to se-
cure control OF an entire island and oc-
eupy a number Of cities. establishing a
system OF thorough and effective govern
ment in all Its districts.
The chief city OF San Juan can be only
taken by the navy in cooperation with &
large force ashore, as It Is practically
impregnable on its land side. The island
Is hundred miles long and forty miles
wide and even its most unhealthy coast
ports are seldom visited by yellow fever.
Most OF the Spanish troops are gathered
at San Juan and it is General Miles inten-
tion to land at least thirty-eight miles
from that stronghold and occupy other
important places. while the heavy double
turreted monitors and other armored ves-
sells Of the navy destroy San Juan's forti-
fcations and compel It's surrender by bonn
harding. II necessary.
II the navy part Is completed as speed
lily as scheduled in the program approved
by the war board and other authorities
here, that city will be ready for General
Brooke's occupation almost by the time
he reaches there.
General Miles advance force consists OF
three regiments Of volunteer Infantry OF
General Garretson's brigade. The Sixth
Illinois. Sixth Massachusetts, and light
batteries c and NJ Of the Seventh artillery
which started from Tampa several days
ago, are to meet him of Mole st. Nicho-
las. These batteries are about the first in
the American army to be equipped exclu-
sively with smokeless powder and were
selected by the commanding general on
this account.
General Miles does not expect to be de-
pendent upon subsistence stores forward
ed from this country during his campaign.
as was the case with the army in SANTA
go. Porto Rico has not been devastated
by the Spaniards, and 1t is believed thar
American gold will buy all the food there
that is necessary for the troops.
The towns to be captured outside OF San
Juan, are small with two exceptions
Ponce and Mayaguez. The former Is the
most modern and thoroughly progressive
city in the West Indies. It has 1900 in
habitants and is said to be the healthiest
place In the island. 1t also contains the
only protestant church In the Spanish
Antilles, and in addition to its three first-
class hotels, chamber Of commerce.

the collier Brutus has now been about
twenty days out from Honolulu. With
the addition OF this fine and powerful
monitor Dewey will be amply able to

forces In the Philippines maintain the rel
