WILL REPLACE sPANIARDs.
Znmbonnsa Is One of the Great
Strategic Points,

washington, May 15.-It is expected at
the war department that Gen. Otis will
take steps at once to replace the Spanish
garrison at zamboanga with United States
troops.
The indications are that a comparative
ly small force will suffice, provided that it
is supported by one or two gunhoats.
The place is one of the greatest strate-
gic Importance. being the capital of the
island of Mindanao, the second largest in
the Philippine group and a good seaport
1t was to this point that the Spanish forces
retreated from 1lollo when that town was
evacuated without notice to The American
forces, The town is easily defensible with
a small artillery force.
The fact that the insurgents are in pos
session of rapid-nre guns makes the situa-
tion at zamboanga more serious, but it is
not believed here that they have a large
supply of the ammunition necessary 10
operate the weapons, which VIII conse-
quently soon become useless to them.
Through unofficial agents, the govern
ment here has been quietly making inves-
ugation into the state of affairs in the
Sulu group, south Of the Visayan Islands,
with view to determining whether by
good management, the inhabitants can
not be brought into allegiance to the
United States without insurrections The
natives are generally Mahommedans, and
owe allegiance TO a Sultan whom the
Spaniards have never been able to bring
into more than nominal submission He
maintains harem and lives In state and
II is probable that an annuity win have
to be provided for him out OF the revenues
of the island after the United States takes
