END OF WAR NEAR.


WASHINGTON, June THE belief
that the end Of the war is approaching
spreads Officials of the war and navy
departments, men whose profession is
fighting, are beginning now to think
the hostilities will not last nearly
long enough to demonstrate the prac.
teal value Of their theories in various
directions. A navy officer Of high
rank advised q friend who wanted to
get into the service not to do so.
"You will see no fighting" said the
officer 1.-The war will be over In a
few weeks, probably by the end OF
June. There will be no chance for
promotion and you will be sorry you
went in.
This feeling that 1.-THE Fourth OF
July will see Cuba free" is gaining
strong hold. 1t may be that the ex-
pectation is too optimistic, but the
holders Of it include those high in au-
thority, who ought to be able to Judge
Of the prospect OF Spain's endurance.
At cabinet meeting last week, 1t is
said only one Of the presidents I'D.
visers thought the war would continue
after Santiago and the feet are taken
and Porto Rico is occupied. An army
will 20 to Cuba but it will be an army
Of occupation, to maintain authority,
not to expel Spain. The increased
military and naval establishments Of
the United States will have TO con.
tinue for some time to come, but they
will not be called upon for fighting.
