AMERICANS IN DANGER.
Yew Troops Avaliable to Preserve Order—
Prompts Action Needed—Disturbances
Caused by Spanish HRoidlers in Other
Parts of the Island-—These Ships Will
Hold the Towa in Perfect Subjection.
————
Washington, D. C., (Special) ~The Brook-
iyn, Texas, Castine and Basolute have been
ordered to Havana,
While thers is not the faintest desire to
convey a threat in the dispatch of thease
warships to Havana, it may be noted that
when they lie within the harbor they will
hold the town in perfect subjection. It is
garmised that the suggestion came from
Admiral Sampson, who is now in one of the
suburbs of Havana, as a result of the unfor-
tunate eruption Sundaynight at the Hotel
Inglaterra,
At any rate, the event brought the author.
ities to 8 sudden realization of the exact
state of affairs in Havana, and the imminent
danger of another such outbreax, which,
perhaps, might run Inte the proportions of
a riot and cost many innocent lives,
With only a small foree of American sol-
diers in Havana Province, and those re.
moved at such & distance from the city as to
make it difficult of mooess in time to be of
service to the American element in the city,
now swollen to large proportions by the ad-
vent of many hundred commercial men and
others seeking opportunities for employ-
ment, the necessity for some protection was
apparent. To Increase the number of sol
diers materially is not easy, in view of the
difficulty of transporting them as well as
providing for them when they reach Cabs.
The navy’'s motto now is always ready,
and it was decided to basten the ships
ngmed to Havana to form a formidable
bllwark against soy aparchie outlreaks
that might occur befors the completion of
the American occupation of thecity. The
Texas is a full-fledged armor-ciad, and
might stand a deal of pounding even from
the heaviest fortifications; the Brooklyn,
with her protective system can be rated as
even better than the New York, of thesaxe
type; the Castine is an efficient, thongh
small gunboat, and the Resolate fs a trans-
formed merchantman, with a battery large
enough to make her formidable.
TROOPS LANDED IN HAVANA,
New York and North Carolina Regiments
March Through City.
Havana, (Special) ~The First North Caro-
lina Regiment, which arrived here Sunday
on the United States transport Houmanian,
disembarked and marched through the city,
with band and colors, to camp at Mariasao,
By the time the regiment Lad reached the
suburb of Cerro, many hundreds of men,
women, and ohiidren were following, all
showing deep emotion, the men embraciog
one another, the woman weeping from ex-
cessive pleasure, and the children shouting
endearing names as the North Carcllaians
marched slong.
The troops were amazed at the Intensity
of feeling displayed. Several hundred Cu-
bans followed the regiment all the way to
Marianao, a distance of seven miles The
troops, in heavy marchlog order, made a
fine appearanocs, reaching the camp about 11
o'clock, where they were soon comfortably

The Two Hundred and Second New York
Regiment began to jand at 6 o'clock, and at
10 o'eloek & column about 1,000 strong
started to march from the San Jose wharf to
the Christina Railroad station. The troops
were led by Col. Seyburn acd Maj. Abbot,
the regimental band playlag simple mareh-
ing airs. The Color Sergeants bore the Stars
and Stripes, and the blue aad gold banner
of the State of New York.
The route, which was a mile and a half
long, was the most direct course from the
landing place to the raliroad station, asd
did got pass through the principal streels.
There were ouly the ordinary number of
people in the streets, snd it was only occa
sionally that cries of “Vive Espana!” "Vive
Americanos!” or “Vive Cuba Libre!” were
heard. The onlookers were mostly silent,
and were merely curious to see the American
soldiers. The regiment arrived at the rall-
road station at 10.30 o'clock, and alter some
delay two trains loaded with troops pulled
out of the depot.
