advices said, and still was in pro-
gress today.
About five hundred marines and
blue-jackets landed from the cruiser
Olympia, the mine-layer San Fran
cisco and the gunboat Petrol to pro-
tect American interests. The garri-
son at Santiago consists of only a
handful of men and should the re-
bells attack before the arrival of
Colonel Betancourt the Americans
would probably bear the brunt of
the defense. Navy officials are not
fearful, however, that the meagerly
equipped rebel forces could do any
considerable damage in a clash with
the landing party.
