which enabled the authorities to deny

Secretary Long announced publicly
this afternoon that he had reason to

Whether or not the American fleet

harbor to meet the Spanish fleet there
is a point which the commander on
the scene is believed to be competent
to pass upon, and which he alone
must decide. OF such importance is
considered the retention of the Span
ish fleet in the harbor of Santiago or
its destruction, that, if necessary, the
armor-clads in front of Santiago will
be reinforced
So clarified has become the atmos-
phere as result of bottling up the
Spanish fleet at Santiago that the au-

The idea that prevailed some weeks
ago that this government would
hasted to provide the Cubans under
Gomez with arms and munitions of
war seems to have died out. Ger
tainly there is not much being done
these days. 1t is recognized clearly
that the first duty of the Govern
ment is to provide its own troops with
proper arms and munitions before
furnishing them to the Cubans. Some
of the representatives of the Cubans
do not hesitate to say that in certain
contingencies they would turn their
arms against the United States. This
sort OF talk is not increasing their
chances of getting arms from this
Government. 1t may be mere bun
combe, but if it sit is ugly buncombe,
and it is not relished by those who
are responsible for the action of this

The Navy Department received
reports from the Oregon showing that

There was no suggestion there of

No Call for More Troops Now.
Before the Cabinet meeting this
morning Secretary Alger was asked
the direct question as to whether the
Government was about to issue an
other call for troops. He replied
promptly that so far as he was con-
cerned he had not considered the
matter. In view of the fact that all
the necessary equipment has not been
secured for the first levy of troops, it
is believed that no consideration will
be given to the advisability of another
call at this time. 1t is of course ap-
parent, however, that inasmuch as
the number of troops required for the
Philippines is far in excess of any de
mand that was forseen when the orig
inal call was issued. they may later
on develop Il necessity for more troops,
if the original plan for the invasion
of Cuba is to be carried out.
Miles on Cuban Invasion.
'With regard to the invasion of
Cuba said Major General Miles at
the War Department to-day, Il have
nothing to say except that the United
States will in due time bring Cuba
under itscontrol, by judiciousmethods
and without useless waste of life.
The United States is too great, too
powerful to commit any foolish act in
connection with the proposed inva-
sion. As for myself have only to say
that no officer is fit to command troops
who from any motive whatever would
needlessly risk the life of a single sol
dier, either from disease or the bullets
of the enemy. l have never sacrificed
the lives of men under my command
and | do not propose to subject them
to any unnecessary risks in the pres
ent campaign"

country, and in irregular warfare, the
only kind, in fact, to which they have
been used. In short, an American
army will be required to defeat the
enemy, capture Havana and expel the
Spanish from the island. That army
is now being created. The task is an
arduous one. A citizen does not be-
come soldier the instant he is mus
tered into the military service, no
matter what the ION to Havana" stra-
tegists may think of it. The ION to
Richmond cry in 81 heightened the
Civil War a year, if not two years;
made it cost hundreds of millions of
dollars more than it should have cost
and sacrificed to its frantic folly tens
of thousands of lives of the bravest

is veteran of that war, and there
are $4,000 effective Spanish soldiers in

The Senate Committee on Appro-
priations held an extraordinary and
secret meeting which lasted all of
Sunday, the 18th. The discussion
was upon the urgent demands of the
War Department for authority or
money to make contracts or buy arms
or ammunition. 1t was explained
that there existed at that very time
famine of powder, projectiles and
arms, and that unless something was
done Immediately the sorry spectacle
would soon be presented to the whole
world of an army of 125, GOO men, with
out weapons of offense and defense,
and without adequate equipment of
protecting themselves against attack,
much less of attacking an enemy.
This meeting was kept a secret until
to-day, but as it has in sense become
public property, there is no impro-
priety in mentioning it. Under in
formal authority conferred by the
committee. officials of the War Office
proceeded to contract for the neces-
sary supplies, and the factories and
power works have been working night
and day to fit out our soldier boys.

THE CUBAN INVASION.
President NOn-Committal as to the Policy
of Government.

President NOn-COmmittal as to the Policy
Government.
WASHINGTON, May 23.-Toa visitor
who wanted to find out something
definite about the proposed invasion
of Cuba the President said to-day:
"There are $4,000 effective Spanish
soldiers in Cuba"
That was all. He did not say the
invasion would take place at once, as
certain newspaper strategists affirm;
nor did he say that the movement
would be postponed until fall. His
reply was as enigmatical as that of a
Delphic oracle. Its meaning seems to
be that it would be bad policy to in
wade Cuba until we have an army of
effectives capable of coping success
fully with those $4,000 Spanish effect
ives.
~
The military policy of the Govern
ment appears to be, as outlined here
tofore in these dispatches, to form
and maintain huge and constantly
growing camp of soldiers of all arms
at Tampa, on the Gulf coast of Flor
ida, and hold it there constant men
ace to the Spanish, ready to move at
any time, and then when all is pre-
pared and the proper moment has ar
rived to hurl it into Cuba in over
whelming force, crush the enemy in
one short, decisive campaign and
drive the Spaniards forever from the
Western world. The plan much talked
of at one time of sending a small force
to seize and hold by the aid of the
Navy Cuban port appears to have
been abandoned. If this could have
been done within a week of the dec
laration of war it would have been an
effective move. Now there is appar-
entity nothing to be gained by it. I'm
til the final forward movement is
made the troops, regular and volun-
teer, will be kept in the camps already
established at Falls Church near
