The first army of Invasion to Cuba Is now well on Its way, 81 transport steamships bearing over 15,000 officers and men, convoyed by battleships, cruisers, gunboats and auxiliary cruisers, II In number, hav ing actually sailed from Key West at daybreak yesterday morning. An au thoritative statement to this effect was made at the war department, setting at rest all reports that the expedition was on Its way, or had landed last week. By Thursday, at the latest, the trans ports will be oft Santiago, and a large American army will make Its landing on Cuban soil. Admiral Sampson hew cleared the way for this undertaking, and little danger Is apprehended In get ting ashore It will be after that, when the advance Is made, that the actual dramatic developments may be ex pected. By that time It Is likely the American commanders will be In dl rect cable communication with the au thorities here. Admiral Sampson has taken the shore end of the cable land ing at Guantanamo, and a force of cable experts are rapidly restoring the line to working order. The progress of this work has been so satisfactory that one of the leading officials of the Stat department said last night that it was hoped that direct cable communication would be established by Thursday. It will put an end to the dearth of ofllcl.il Information concerning Important movements, and will enable the au thorities to keep in close touch with those executing the strategic move ments.

Washington, June 11 The dispatches on Tuesday of last week told of the si lencing of the fortifications forming the defense of Santiago and vicinity by the combined fleets of Admiral Sampson and Commodore Schley. The bombard ment began at ( o'clock Monday morn Ing and lasted until o'clock. Then the warships were turned snd firing re turned from the port batteries, contln- I ulng until 10 o'clock, when the Spanish nre cease entirely ana Admiral Samp son hoisted the signal "cease firing." The Spanish forts and batteries have been completely disabled, and Admiral Sampson will prevent their reconstruc tion. ' It Is believed that he has land ed marines, but there Is no authentic news to this effect. Admiral Sampson's report has reached Washington, and It declares that our ships escaped Injury. Admiral Cervera's report to the Spanish government admits serious damage to the cruiser Relna Mercedes and the killing of 39 men, with 11 wounded. The other great news of Tuesday was the report from Manila of the triumphs of Emlllo Agutnaldo and his Insurgent army. He has taken over 2,000 Spanish prisoners and has captured four towns. The victorious insurgent chief treats his prisoners well, and has Issued or ders that the lives and property of Eu ropeans, Chinese and all Spanish non combatants are to be protected. In a proclamation he expresses a desire to set up a native administration In the Philippines under an American protec torate. The principal news of Wednesday came In a dixpatch from Cape Haytlen, which told of the bombardment of Col mancra, on the bay of Guantanamo, by five ships of Admiral Sampson's squad- Ton. The Spaniards wore forced to abandon their Dosltions on the shore and retreat to the town proper, where they were preparing for a final desper ate struKKle, the Spanish commander having Issued orders to burn Calninn era before surrendering it Into tin; hands of the Americans. The story of the bombardment, which was comin;; by cable from SantliiRO to Cape Hay tlen, was suddenly Interrupted, showing that the "able had been cut.

Arrangements for the second expedition of invasion from the United States for the Went Indies are being hurried at the war de partment. There seems to be no doubt that this expedition will lie sent from the en co:.s( of the United States. The exp'iijiice of embarking the first expedition from Tampa has demon strated to the war department officials that other ports where the railroad and other facilities are more adequate than at Tampa are much more desirable places for the concentration of troops and their embarkation. . i-niiaoeipnia.
