NEGROES ATTACK MILLS
TRY TO DESTROY PROPERTY A
SHORT DISTANCE FROM CITY
OF HAVANA
VETERAN GENERAL ARRESTED
MAN WHO HELPED COUNTRY
GAIN ITS FREEDOM MIXED IN
PRESENT REVOLT


Washington, June 7.-The general
stan of the army today issued pre-
paratory orders for the dispatch of a
military expedition of 5000 troops to
Cuba. The four big army transports
now at Newport News were ordered to
be put in commission, provisioned and
supplied. Orders also we're sent 70
the army posts from which the troops
will be drawn to have them in readi-
ness for the movement The troops
will be taken from Pittsburgh Bar
racks, Forts Porter, Niagara and Gov
ernors Island, N. Y, and Forts Nc
Pherson and Oglethorpe, in Georgia.
At the war department it was en-
phatically stated that if the expedi-
tionary force did go to Cuba II woIld
not be with any thought of political
interference in the affairs Of .he is
land or the government. The princi-
pal object would be to aid Cuha in
restoring order, 1t was said the :roops
probably would be dispatched TO the
eastern end of the island and would
not go near Havana
One plan of action which might be
adopted would be the afawing OF
military lines in the insurrecto terri
tory and calling upon all persons to
come in, with the ultimatum OF be-
ing summarily dealt with if found
outside" This has been suggested as
one way to bring the insurrectos out
of their camps.
The military components of the
expedition would be Fifth infantry,
Plattsburg Barracks, N. Y, Twenty
ninth infantry at Forts Porter, Jay
and Niagara, N. Y; the Seventy-sev-
enth infantry at Fort Mcpherson, the
Eleventh cavalry at Fort Oglethorpe
and Battalion F. Fourth field artillery
"a mountain battery,) at Fort D. A.
Russell, Wyoming.
Probably the last battalion could
not be embarked for at least a week
after orders are given, because of the
long overland trip to a port, but it
is declared that the artillery would
not be needed at first and would be
there in ample time if it followed the
troops within a week. President
Gomez was notified last week that
the United States would intervene in
q substantial military way to re
store order in Cuba, unless his own
army made some immediate progress
The proclamation which Gomez has
issued to the Cuban people calling on
them to aid in suppressing the rising
is believed to be directly attributable
to the notification.
A statement by General lsstenoz,
the insurrecto chief, denying that the
rising was race war, or that the in
surrectos had been guilty of wanton
outrage was made public at the state
department 1t came from Estenoz
through George Collister, the Ameri-
can ranch owner, who was reported
captured.
Estenoz saws at some length that
the negro in Cuba has been deprived
of his constitutional rights. Estenoz
continues that he has learned that
American mining companies have
armed their laborers, and that he has
warned them that if the laborers are
permitted to fight the insurrectos
I'VE shall retaliate by killing every
Gallego on whom we can lay our
hands,"
