WASHINGTON , July 11.-Major General
Brooke , commmmammdimmg time large army of
United States troops now at ChickanmaUga ,
Imas been ordered to reimort to Waalmiiigtoa
anti is expected to reach imero tonight. It is
believed that hmis call 'to this city has been
witim a View to commstiltatlon respcctimmg time
next military expetlitlomm , whmlch it is now
proposed shall leave the United States
within a abort time after time fall of
Santiago.
It Is believed that a Porto Rican expedi-
tioim will mmot draw upon ur troops 1mm Cuba
to any great extent , time p1mm bolmmg to have
our Cuban forces largely returned to the
United States for resuperation. Gemmeral
W'ihsoa's division , comnposed of the brigades
of Generals llaines and Ernest , are under
orders for the Porte Ricami expedition. One
brigade 'Is now at Charleston and the other
at Chickamimauga. No more 'troops , it. Is
ordered , shall ho embarked for Santiago
with the exception of 'two ' Tegimemmts of
lnmmuncs. These inmmune regiments are at
New Orleans and Galveston , where trans-
nrts have been provided to take them to
Cuba ,
Although time reported appearance of a
few cases of yellow fever among our troops
in ( remit of Santiago ' presents a perplexing
nrobiemn to the prcsidCnt and his advisers ,
it is nimrmost certain to result 1mm tIme tern-
porary removal of all our land forces from
the Island of Cuba as pronmpUy as possible
after the float surrender of General Toral's
army is effected. In this connection the
questloum of withholding for the present time
expeditlomi now being fitted out against
Porto Rico has beemm under serious consider-
atioum , but up to this tinme mme positive con-
elusion , it is thmouglmt , has been reached.
Investigation with respect to the climatic
conditions at San Juan , however , have
convlmmced time officials that there would be
no danger to our troops' there from yellow
fever , wimlcii hmrovaiis In all harts of Cuba.
Time city of San Juan , 'which Is built cmi
hlgim ground , is said to be exceptionally
clean for a Spanish tovum. Time vater is
saId to be good aimih all tImings considered
it Is mmot believed timmmt time presemit arraimgo-
mmments for the immvaslon of time islammil will
ho interfered with , Nomme of time troops now
in front of Sammtingo , it Is ummdcrstood , will
take rjrt in this cxpeditiomm , but will be
brought nortim to remain until October ,
when it Is expected the dangers from time
Cuban fevers will have passed.
