Mobile, May 31.-Today the five transports in this port have lad up steam and are ready to sail at an hours notice. The regiments regulars, are under "waitirg orders" They may embark any hour.
 Officers maintain the utmost secrecy as to the loading of troops and their probable destination, but as wired last night, an army movement from Mobile to Cuba or Porto Rico is momentarily expected. A rumor Is current that Major-General Cop pinger will be placed in command of the Porto Rican expedition and that his corps is destined to capture San Juan. This rumor, though repeated by thousands. can- not be traced to any authoritative source. The twelve transports reported to have been ordered here. have not yet arrived.

BRYAN ANSWERS 10 THE CHARGES RI
 If 5a Has No Fear That Anything Will Be. Proven
 Against Him. z
Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald.


 Washington, May S1.-The attorney-gen eral returned to Washington last night and the papers in the case of Marshall Lee Bryan were sent up to him today. MT. Bryan is still here and has made answer to the charges against him. 6
 He makes complete denial that he either falsified reports sent to the department or connived at them The specific charges are to the effect that he charged the govern ment full fare on the railroads. which transported prisoners on scalp tickets and on thousand-mile tickets and that his dep- uties did the same.
 Colonel Bryan has no fear that anything can be proven against him, and that if his deputies are guilty of any misconduct they must suffer for it.
 The case comes near home. however, for the reason that MT. Bryan has son and a son-ln-law in his office as deputies. The attorney general said this aftrnoon that he had not taken up the cas- as yet and was therefore unable to discuss It's merits.
