Very llttlo Is known hern of clenoral Sliufier's plans of attack, although in his messages of yesterday hn indicated the purpose to move early on the enemy. Tho opinion Is held here that the nnvy will co-opoi'iiio In tho attack on Sirtiugo, and that to thin end part of Shatter's force Is to movo Immediately upon Morro castle to capture iho forts and to enable the naval launches to open the gateway Into Iho harbor by relieving it of the mlnoi Tho second expedition from Tampa to reinforce Shatter appears to have en countered nlmost ns many difficulties ns tho original expedition in getting ready. It was confidently expected here that the start would bo made from Tampa last Monday, but one difficulty after another has arisen to rctnrd tho movements, so that It was with .1 feeling of relief that tho news came to the department from Taniia ihnt tho flagship of the ex pedition, tho Hudson, was ready to lend the procession of troopships, which It Is believed by this time tire under way, bound for Santiago.

PREPARING FOR THE MOVE. j Associated Press Dispatch. ! l.awton's Hondiiuartcrs, Five Miles East of Santiago, Wednesday Evening, ! via Kingston, June SO. t Copyrighted 1S1"S by the Associated Press.) The American troops spent yesterday In feeling for the enemv. otherwise engaging In recon nolsauccs. Shatter la person, w.th a small escort, went almost to Caney, a small town five miles northeast of Santiago, with which the city Is connected by rail road. Lieutenants Standing and Adeal, of the Cuban army, and the American sharp shooters have occupied a small hill north east of the American lines, and looking directly down on both Caney and San tiago. Cnnoy now seems to hold about SOO Spanish troops. The small number of Troops there Indicates that the Span lards have practically evacuated the place, and this Is believed to bo the case. Lieutenant Standing was not molested during his observation, though he passed 'through a camp which twenty-four hours previously had been occupied by a strong Spanish outpost. Corporal Hucht, Seventh Infantry, who with seven men was sent out soven miles from Santiago yesterday morning, and was forgotten until ithls afternoon, was found by Shatter and sent Into camp. The party had repeatedly seen the Span lards, mho did not offer to molest thm. and tne Americans spent the day a If en Joying a picnic In the woods. The cor Ioral said that if he h id had wi;h him a sufficient f .rce he could have brought tn forty Spanish prisoners. The camp conditions Continue hird. Heavy rains yesterday set everything altoat. Itations, however, are being served out pgularly. but they are still not plenti ful. Officers and men fare alike. The latter are suffering during the cold nichts from lack of blankets thrown away on !th e niareh. These have been appropriated by the Cubans, who take everything tn 'tight, and do as n.ue as possible. On I .:. .... they actually fare better thin J our nu n. J The American officers generally expect ; movinunt today to capture Caney. which is five miles northeast of Santiago. TELK'JRAPH LINES ESTABLISHED. (Associated Press Dispatch Washington, June 3.'. The war depart ment received the welcome Information today that military telegraph stations have been established at St. Villa, In the center of the present military operations, and that this l.ne runs to a po.nt near Aguadores. where it connects with the French cab.e line, thus bringing General Shufter Into direct communi atiJn with the department. F.EOKGANIZING THE O. X. G. Associated Press Dispatch. Portland. June SO. At a meeting of the state military board today la the office of Adjutant General Tuttle, the forma tion of five companies In the reorganized Oregon national guard was authorized. Two of the companies wiii be located In Portland, one In Salem, one in Eugene and one tn Pendleton. Applicants for permission to form companies were received from a number of cities and towns and In all the cases the board decided to give preference to places which were represented In the na tional guard when the call for volunteers was Issued. This was done owing to a lack of funds, which obliges the board to be economical and to permit the organiza tion only In localities which at present have armories, gun racks and other equip ment that can be utilized by the new com panies. Applications from the smaller towns did not receive favorable consideration, for the reason tha-t the board has learned from experience that companies in sparse ly settled sections can seldom be main tained longer than the period of enlist ment of the first batch of recruits. The Portland companies which were given permission to organize were: Com pany C, H. A. Moser, captain, TS members, and Company E. F. A. Gaus, captain. TS members. There Is room for two more companies in Portland. The Salem or ganization Is commanded by J. C. Rutnlc and has Kl members; Eugene, by J. M. Williams, C3 members, and rendleton, by Roy W. Rimer, ii members. Besides these a company has just been mustered In at Baker City and another is being mus tered at Ashland. DISPATCH BOAT ASHORE. Associated Press Dispatch. Kingston.

It is depending on him to exercise hl Judgment and his ability to the best ad vantage and the reports he has sent Indi cate that he is about to act In such a way as to crush the Spanish troops now in Santiago. General Shatter telegraphs In such con fident terms that no room la left for doubt that he feels perfectly able to overthrow any force the Spanish com mander may throw In his way. When Adjutant General Corbln waa asked "What of Pando and his reinforce ments?" he replied: "We expect to take the city."
