The time of Its Ue bnrk.ltlnn has not yet been determined upon, but It probably will be wiihln the next three days. When the fleet of thirty live transports with Its freight of flcht Ing nun swept up the southern coast to day, mid slowed up within sight of the loomed cllv of Sintlngo. the nnxLmsly 11 ailed soldiers were greeted with rins ing cheers which faintly echoed to the transports from the decks of the block ading warships far Inshore, they were answered by the troops most enthusiastic allv and In kind. It was I o'clock this morning when the lookout on board the cruiser lirooklyn re ported seeing the smoke of several steam ers iiway to the southeast and n moment two later he announced that a dozen or two transports were In sight. The news was exchanged from ship to ship. Half an hour Inter, grim forests of masls had sprung up apparently from the sea, nml a "most Impressive scene was pre sented as the nrtiiada swept gracefully up from the horizon toward the shores where the great snuggle Is to take place. The transport were ranged In three shift ing lines, with the battle ship Indiana on the extreme right, and the other imti-of-wiir on the outskirts of the fleet. In this order the transports and their escorts steamed slowly In toward where Morro's red walls aili-nmed In the sunlight. It was Intended to take the entire fleet to the lines of Rear Admiral Sampson's fleet of war ships, but nn order from the admiral slopped the advance of the ships Hlioiit fifteen miles to the southeast, nml General Shafter went forward on the Se guanincn to confer with the admiral. The transports lay on the smooth sea while plans were discussed by the leaders on board tho flagship. Not the faintest hint of their Intentions regarding 11 binding has been allowed to escniii'. I'ndoubtedly, however, somo of the troons will be landed nt Gunntnnnmo hay. but It Is generally believed the mnln hodv will be landed much nearer San tiago.

The war department Is satisfied that the Cuban forces under Garcia can keep Pando from reinforcing Santiago. Should this not be accomplished, the Spanish forces at San tiago would be augmented to about Sj.iW. These are well armed, well disciplined. used to the climate, know the fighting grounds of that locality and are probably as giod an all-around fighting force as the Spaniards can bring to bear.

NEW TORK, June H.-A spe cial to the Herald from Port Antonio says that news reached there that the first division of General Shatter's expedi tion arrived off Santiago Monday night. Now that the marines at Camp Mc Call have become firmly Intrenched there the Spaniards must divide their forces to defend both cities. Our forces are thus about to reap another decided advantage through tne suc cessful landing of the marines on the eastern shore of Guantanamo bay. Um the ability of the troops to stand the climatic conditions at this season ot the year in Cuba will depend In a great measure the time to be se lected for the advance upon Havana. If the regulars are able to keep In as good health as have the marines at Camp McCalli it may be expected to hear of speedy developments In the situation. It Is said that the men under Gener al Shafter, despite their experience of thirteen dayii in close quarters aboard the transports, are in good health. They are eager to get at the Span lards, and stirring scenes are certain to mark their landing. LARGE EVENTS TO OCCUR. Associated Press Dispatch. New York. June 21.
