OUR TROOPS RETREATING.

Washington, March IS.--The President
has become interested in having this
volunteer troops in Cuba hurried out of
the island before there is any danger of
infection from yellow fever. He has given
very positive instruotions to tho war de
partment upon this matter and the
quarterIuaster' department is making
u great effort TO secure transports and
have them ready to embark troops with
in few days. 1t Is desirable to have all
the troops destined for Southern camps
landed in the United States before April
/, when the Quarantine regulations of
the South will make 1t very difficult to
get the men into this country.
Tho quartermaster department has
started several transports for Cuba which
have not been in active service of late.
Arrangements have been made with the
Ward line steamers to carry troops to
the United States, and the Plant line
steamers have been secured for the same
purpose. Gen. humphreys, chief quar-
termaster at Havana, has been ordered
to prepare the volunteers for embarkation
so that there will be no delay wheD the
ships arrive. Where 1t is practicable, the
troops will be inspected and the baggage
fumigated before leaving Cuba. The
q uartermaster's department has been
working in conjunction with Surgeon
General Wyman OF the marine hospitals
service, who is doing what ne can 20
overcome the difficulties OF quarantine
and inspection in the United States.
