Taaory of Battle.
The theory of the sham battle la to
dislodge Major Mara defensive forces.
The artillery will open lire from their
position oa the right, supporting the
movements of the troope, which are to
ba sent against the hillside position in
the following manner:
1 'X feint will, be made by the Tenth
iinraniry irom yovernmeni iiuuiu, iui-
I oaixery .ana - cavairy. wdui inia is in
I progress, the. real attack will develop
on xne ngni oi me aoiqnaiTmzoroes,
IwlU a flanking movement executed by
ins uurea paiaaiions one iniaury.
T The flanking movement will have as
M
purpose the complete envelopment
the hillside forces, so that, as the
goes on.' Major : May will have
ve himself by retreat or suffer
defeat The problem confronting Major
May. will be to prevent the flanking
movement, -while resisting the - attack
of the troops from Government island
and - tha ilre of JhsartUlery and the
cavalry, .. '
" Befeaders e.Be Oefeated. '
The Inevitable outcome, according to
judges of military tactics. Is that Major
May will be defeated, but - in accom
plishing the downfall of the hillside
forces, there wilt be really spectacular
warfare, with the , firing of I0,00t to
7S, 000 shots. - . t. ; - f "
