Immediately upon the receipt Of
Commodore Schley's dispatch tonight
Its contents were conveyed to the
President by Lieutenant Whittlesey
md then to Captain Crowninshield, a
member Of the war board. General
Miles was Immediately sent for, and
he and Captain Crowninshield were
closeted together for an hour or more,
talking over the plans Of joint oper-
ations between the army and navy,
which are to be commenced immedi-
ntely against Havana, as well as San

Spanish fleet bottled up In Santiago
harbor.
This has been suspected for several
days, but 1t was not definitely known
until this morning, when Captain
Sigsbee Of the st. Paul. who has been
cruising on the linrbor for the past
week, steamed close enough to dis
tinctly see two cruisers Of the Vizcnya
class and two TORPEDO boats lying Just
inside the mouth OF the harbor. 1t Is
believed that the rest Of Cervern's
squadron is also there.
The st. Paul has been watching
Santiago for eight days. SiGsbec
thinks that two Spanish torpedo boats
ventured out OF the harbor Saturday
night TO attack the st. Paul. but, an
ticipating such move. he changed his
position every night in order that they
could not locate him.
To-day Commodore Schley took a
position with the entire squadron to
prevent the escape OF Cervera. He
hopes the Dons will come out and
fight. The opposing fleets are about Of
equal strength.

the orders Of the War Department have

Ing the troops that have been gath
cred at the gulf ports began to break
camp and march aboard transports
waiting to carry them to the enemy's
territory. About twenty-five Of these
ships. the biggest and fastest that

pose, had been gathered ready to re-
celve the troops. They will accomm0-
date about 10000 men. for, In a short
voyage like that from one of the gull
ports to Cuba, II IL possible with anfe.

number OF men aboard ship than
would be admissible In the case Of a
cruise to tho Philippines, for instance.
How many troops started this morn
Ing. where they took ships, or whittier
they are bound, are questions which
the directing spirits OF the campaign
refuse positively to answer. They
have no desire that the Spanish should
have opportunity Afforded them to
gather forces to attack our soldiers as
they land. Therefore, nothing Of the
details OF this first movement can be
learned.
1t In generally believed that a part
OF the force will be sent to Santiago de
Cuba to aid Schley in his efforts to
capture Cervern's fleet. Porto Rico
may be the objective point Of q Dor
