MILES FOOLED THEM
The News of the Landing at Guanica a
Surprise TO War Department
Officials.

washington, July 27.-Guanica, the
point of debarkation of the Porto Rican
eNpeditionary force, Is small town of
1000 inhabitants on the southern coast
of the island. on a rough calculation II
Is less than % miles air line distant
from Ponce and 65 miles from San
Juan, against which the assault Is to
be directed. GuaniCa Is about six miles
south of NauCO, of which city it forms
the port, and with which 1t is connect
eded by a good road. The town is situ-
ated on a bay of the same name which
forms one of the best ports in the
whole island. The conspicuous advan-
tage of this port, aside from its eX-
cellent harbor fGcllities for the trans
ports is the utter absence of fortihca-
tions Of mines.
The news of the landing of General
Miles at Guanica came as a genuine
surprise to the war department. 1t had
been all carefully planned that he was
to make his landing at another point,
as remote as possible from the place
where he actually landed, 50 there was
little wonder that the officials received
the first news of the landing with in
credulity, and even went to the length
of suppOsing that the story had been
put a1oat in order to distract atten-
tion from the point which had been Sc
lected. Just why General Miles made
this wide departure from the plans of
the department is not known, but II Is
supposed that he gathered some infor-
nation since he left Siboney that in
duCed him to make the change. The re-
suit, however, has been to perpleX the
department officials deeply and to con-
siderably dcrange their carefully pre-
pared program for the remainder of the
expedition. 1t will now be necessary to
intercept the sections Of the expedition
already at sea heading for certain Sc
lected points ON the coast of Porto
Rico and to advise them of the change
in the plans.
1t is another exhibition of the re-
lance placed by the government in the
press dispatches that it proceeded to
act at once i'm the direction indicated
and to take steps to notify the sec
tiOns afioat, without waiting for news
from General Miles himself.
General wilson's brigade is now APP
preaching the island, being due there
today, and reinforcements will follow
at intervals of one or two days until
the whole force of 10000 men is landed
unless events connected with the peace
negotiations make it expedient to stor
further movements. However, it is a
matter for congratulation to the war
department that General Miles has
managed to set foot on Porto Rico be-
fore the first overturcs for peace, and
thus to place the island in the same po-
sition as Cuba and the Philippines.
namely, as territory at least partially
in the possession of the United States
at the beginning of the negotiations.
