WAslfISGToN, June l3.--rhe War De-
pa.tnent officials are extremely reticent
this morning on the subject of the sailing
Of the transports for Cuba. it was adj
mitted Yesterday tina, the transports had
sailed IN that day from Tampa to Key
West, and stated that they would leave
Kew West last evening for Cuba This
morning they would not say definitely
whether the transpo.r is had sailed, as an
ticipated. The impression is given, how
ever. that they did. There was consid-
cradle activity in both the War and Navy
Departments this morning, and Secretary
Long, withstanding his illness, came
to the Eepa, iment shorly Y aser 8 o'clock
having to use crutches. 1t was said at
the Br,eau of Navigation before II
y, / ck that no cisp.tches hat T. en- re-
ceiNed from Admiral Sampson concern
ing the engagement lstween the marines
at Guantanamo and that the Department
had no advi~es on the subject. During
tie morning there was arapld exchange
of communicate ms between the Navy
and War Eepa ,ments, particularly be-
tween the Bureau Of Navigation and the
IAdjutant- Generals office. 1t is supposed
that these related entirely to the sal ling
OF the transports.

WASuISGroN. June l3.-- Members ol
the Senate and House who called on the
President today and talked over the Ha-
waiian situation state it is positive y set
tied that the American flag is to be
raised over Hawaii. After the House
has passed the Hawaiian resolutions,
those islands will be annexed, whether
the Senate acts on the resolution or not.
1t is intended that there shall be no adj
io,lrnment of Congress until the resoll-
tions have been acted on. But if there
is protracted fight and it is made ap.
parent that the minority do not intend
to yield, annexation viii! not be delayed.
Tie knowledge thai such is the case is
expected to be dishes lening to the oppo-
sition, and it is reg rded as not likely
that they will keep up for long a
filibuster which can accomplish nothing.
After the American flag has been raised
at Honolulu it will be an empty issue fol
the opposition to contend against action
by the Senate on the resolutions. The
President feels, as do ibis advisers, that
with the resolutions agreed ON by the
House and an acknowledged majority il
favor of them in the Senate, tine anneXa
ton being regarded as military neces
s,tv, he is fully warranted in taking
possession CT the islands for the purpose
of facilitating our operations in the
Philippines, and that ! G will be sus

tremely annoying and wearing upon the
small force OF marines at Guantanamo.
The marines are regarded as being at
a decided disadvantage in not being able
to get the enemy into the open. They
are said to be environed by an almost
impenetrable jungle, from which the
Spanish under cover can keep up a de-
sultory fire, it being practically an i'm
possibility for so small force to dis
lodge them.
Pickets may be picked off and outposts
attacked, as opportunity offers, the Span
ish seeking shelter in the fastnesses of the
Jungle as soon as their fire is returned.
This sort of warfare is worse than In.
dian fighting, and the marines, being
unfamiliar with the country, are not e.. :
pected to be able to free themselves from
harassment until they are joined by a
large force, or can have the assistance OF
Cuban insurgents, whose duty it is to be
on hand to beat the brush and meet the
Spanish in their own game OF guerrilla
operations.
There appears to be no apprehension
at the Department that the marines can
be driven from their position; but it is
easily comprehended that their position
may be made very trying, and that they
may be worn out with perpetual watch,
ing. The Spanish bushwhackers can
sneak up under cover and open fire, and
then Immediately sneak off into the
jungle to make similar attack as the
opportunity offers from some other
quarter.
Some complaint is heard on account Of
the absence of the insurgents to assist In
driving the bushwhackers from the VI
cinity, but the hope is expressed that by
this time the small body of insurgents,
which the press dispatches indicate were
expected to join our forces, has arrived
and is assisting in driving the bush
whackers from cover. The utmost CON
tidence is felt in the courage and tenaclty
of the marines, and their bravery is
highly praised at the Department.

No Spaniards in Sight.

Special DlSpatch 10 The sun,
WAsuISGroN, June l3.--The reports
received at the Navy Department from
the various scout boats dispatched to
locate the Spanish vessels show that no
signs of the alleged fleet in Cuban waters
could be found. Reports from al! OF the
scouts are not in, but officers on duty at
the Nav, Department are of the opinion
that the coast is clear. War Department.
officials are of the same opinion. The
departure OF the transports show that
Secretaries Alger and Long have satlshed
the President that the transports have
nothing to fear from Spanish war vessels
The best information obtainable here is
to the effect that the warships conveying
the troops number about fifteen and the
transports about thirty.

DIRECTORS IN SESSION.
Board Meeting Ofthe Arlington Mills
Manufacturing COmpany.--To
Resume Operations Soon.

Manufacturing CompaDy---To
Resume Operations Soon.
A meeting of the directors and officers
of the Arlington Mills Manufacturing
Company was held at the mills, on Van
dever avenue, over Market street bridge,
yesterday afternoon.
At this meeting it was decided to i'm
mediately make the necessary repairs to
machinery, ETC., and be ready to place
the mills in operation by the end of the
present month or the first of July.
It is understood that all the old officers
were reelected, with the exception of
the case Of the manager, and this office
will be filled by one Of the principal
stockholders, William Grier, of Phila-
delphia.
John 7. Ahrens, who. is the secretary
and treasurer, could not be seen after
the meeting for the reason that he had
accompanied Mr.. Grier to Philadelphia,
where arrangements will be perfected
for the reopening Of the mills and the re-
sumption OF work.
1t was also decided at the meeting, it
is said, to resume operations in full and
this means the employment OF $500
hands. Enough orders, as was exclu-
sively published in THE Sun OF yeste,-
day, have been secured to keep the mills
running for at least year. and this will
bring comfort to mole than one family
in this and the immediate vicinity.
An inspection of the machinery showed
that it would have to be thoroughly over.
hauled and cleaned, and this will at least
take two weeks. As soon as this is COM
pleted operations in the mills, which have
been idle since Christmas of 1897, will be
resumed.

Claims of THE sun That the Prosecu.

Repeated efforts on the part of certain
individuals and certain newspapers in
this State, to charge that politics is back
of the prosecution OF the Dover bank
cases, have met with well deserved
disfavor by the majority of justice-lov-
ing people and fair min ed newspapers.
When the expose of the looting of the
First National Bank of Dover was com
menced by THE Sun, political con-
spiracy was charged.
Time and time again this paper de-
clared in its editorial columns that such
was not the case; that politics had not
and would not enter into the expose of
those who assisted William N. Boggs in
looting the national bank.
The owner of THE Sun stated over his
signature that this paper recognized no
political party, no creed or fraternity
whatever in the matter of the robbery of
the First National Bank of Dover.
The following editorials show that to-
day the people recognize the fact that
the work of THE Sun was done in the
interest of justice.
