Forty Thousaud Volunteers 70 HolloW
tho Re9ulars-Sampson's Missioa.
Warrington. May io.-Thsre = the
best authority for the statement that
the navy department does not expect
TO hear from Admiral Sampson within
several days. The authority for this
statement ID fully acquainted with
Admiral SIMPSONS plans. and the re.
mark would seem to indicate that the
admiral. having failed TO hnd the
enemy at the place expected. had turn
ed his attention to the alternative pro-
tect. What this Ii cannot be ascertain
ed. It 10 evident. however. that the
department is under no apprehension
as to the safety Of the American feet
nor OF any vessel Of the fleet.
The war department yesterday issued
orders showing where the various state
volunteer organizations are to be con-
centrated. The order Is thought to
warrant the assumption that the de-
partment contemplates a speedy move
ment Of the United States military
forces upon Cuba, and in much greater
force than was originally planned.
1t Is the expectation that the frs,
regiments organized and reported from
the states will be sent to Chattanooga,
thence going to Cuba via Mobile.
Tampa. New Orleans and Galveston.
for expeditions will be dispatched from
each OF these ports. Probably about
one-third Of the entire levy called for
by the president. or about 10000 troops,
Will constitute the force to be sent
south to take part In the first Cuban
service, following the regular army
forces. These troops will be the first
to receive their equipment
The second contingent, including six
regiments and two troops Of New York
volunteers. are assigned to duty under
command Of the department of the
reserves, which probably will result In
their employment In New York harbor
and along the shores OF Long Island
sound In the case OF Pennsylvania
five regiments. two battalions and two
troops are also assigned to duty In the
department Of the east. which will
place them along the shores OF the
Delaware bay and river as coast guard
to protect the important shipping in
terests OF that section.
When these are equipped the govern
ment will turn Its attention to the
third class, comprising the last third Of
the 1880 volunteers called for. 1t fs
the sincere hope OF the war department
that 1t will not be called upon to fully
equip these troops before hostilities are
at an end. 1t may be remarked. by the
way, that out OF the first class will
come the troops which will be sent to
the Philippine islands
