What Will Happen One of These Days

Chicago, May IA special to the Journal from Washington says: An important attache of the bureau of navigation appeared before the naval board of war today with convincing argument touching the strategic phase of the situation, SO far as it relates to the probable movement of the Spanish fleet.
 Admiral Carvera," he insisted, Knows that an overwhelming force of American ships await him at San Juan. His only hope of defeating the United States lies in his ability to reach Ha- vana and place himself under the pro- lection of the Havana Notifications. Wish the start he has he could anchor in the harbor before Sch1ey heads him of.

Three hundred sailors and marines to reinforce Admiral Deweys fleet will go with the vessel. It is unofficially stated that the steamer City of Pekin will sail from this city next Thursday and that she will carry 10000 soldiers and 600 tons of ammunition.
 The first regiment of the California United States volunteer infantry VIII probably be the first to leave this city for Manila. Col. Smith received secret orders this morning from headquarters and he had a hurried consultation with his feld officers shortly after which the soldiers were ordered to pre- pare for an inspection in heavy marching.
 Orders have also been given to have the soldiers of the First fully equipped and the quartermaster's department is hurrying the work as fast as possible. It is said that the men must be fully prepared for service by Tuesday. The first now has it's full quota of men and officers aggregating 1,032 men.

THE FIGHT FOR THE WIRE.
A Collapsing Lighthouse and Hundreds
 of Dead Spaniards.

Key West, May 14.-Amid a perfect storm of shot from Spanish rifles and batteries, the American forces cut the cable at Cienfuegos on Wednesday morning. Four determined boat crews under the command of Lieutenant the cruiser Marblehead and the gun boa.s Nashville put out from the ships, the coast having previously been shelled. The work of the volunteers
 was perilous. The cruiser Marblehead and the gunboat Nashville and the
 auxiliary cruiser Windom drew up a thousand yards from the shore with their guns manned ready for desperate
 duty.
 One cable had already been cut and
 the work was in progress on the other ! when the Spanish in the rife pits and
 batteries in an old lighthouse stand
 ing cut in the bay, opened fire. The
 warships poured in a thunderous vol
 ley, their guns belching forth massive
 shells into the swarms of enemy. The i crews of the boats calm1y proceeded with their desperate work notwith-
 standing the fact that a number had i fallen, and finished it, returning to the l ships through blinding smoke and ] heavy fire.
 One man in a Marblehead boat was
 killed and six were seriously wounded,
 one of whom, Robert Volse, is now at
 Key West and is expected to die be-
 fore morning, a bullet having passed through the base of his brain. Harry

shot through the abdomen. More than thousand infantrymen on shore kept up continuous fire, and bullets
 from the machine guns struck the ships a hundred times, but did no
 great damage.
 Commander Maynard of the gunboat Nashville was slightly wounded by a rife bullet that before striking him passed through the arm of an ensign whose name is not known. Lieuten- ant Winslow was shot in the hand, making three officers wounded in all. After all the Spaniards had been driven from the rife pits, many of them took refuge in the lighthouse fortress upon which the fire of the ships had been centered. A four-inch shell from the Windom tore the struc- ture to pieces, killing many and bury ing others in the ruins. The Spanish loss is known to have been very heavy, the warships firing hundreds of shots and shells into their midst.
 The cable which was cut at Cienfue- EOS extended from that Sfty to Santi ago de Cuba. It does not sever ocnnec- tion with Cuba, as there is another line in operation between Santiago de Cuba and Kingston, Jamaica. The severed cable is owned by a new submarine company.

ARMIES OF OCCUPATION.
Three Military Colonies to Be Shortly
 s Established.

Washington, May 14.-Cuba, Porto Rico and Manila. Armies of occupa- tion for all three points will be shortly dispatched in rapid succession. The Cuban force will be much stronger than has hitherto been hinted. At last the authorities have become con- vinced that there is little in the buga- boo of yellow fever. The official rec ords of the surgeon of the marine hos pital service, who has until lately been stationed in Havana to furnish information as to the sanitary condi- tion of the island, show that out of more than 200, 900 unacclimated Span fsh troops who have from first to last been landed in Cuba, only 5000 have died of yellow fever, while 12,5OO have fallen victims of dysentery. and 2,500 more to it's kindred disease, enteritis, arising from impure water, improper and insufficient food and neglect of all sanitary arrangements.
 EXAGGERATED YELLOW JACK.
 These causes of disease the United States will find it comparatively easy to guard against. Being thousands of miles nearer to its base of supplies than the Spaniards were; and having at command in a higher degree, per haps, than almost any other nation. the advanced appliances for the pre- vention and treatment of diseases of this character, which have been mada a special study by our well equipped marine hospital corps, aided by large appropriations of congress for that special purpose the United States forces will have as little to dread from the yellow jack as from the bullets of the Spaniards.
 HAVE LEARNED BY EXPERIENCE.
 When the three expeditions finally get nuder weigh the impatince which has been so unreasOnably manifested at the delay in beginning active opera tions in the field will melt before the demonstration of the completeness of the preparations that have been made. All the lessons of the war, of our subsequent Indian fights, and not a few practical hints derived from Flu ropean armies during what some called General Miles 'junket'' to Eu- rope during the Grecian-Turkish war, have been utilized. And as to the personnel of the armies. both regular and volunteers, no nation could im- prove upon them; it is doubtful if more than one or two could equal them There is such a magnificent combination of fighting force, adapted for every vicissitude.
