REINFORCING CAMPOS A Madrid cablegram this morn ing reports an official announce ment that 12,000 troops will start for Cuba on Tuesday next. This will put between 70,000 and 80,0 10 men n the island. According to a recent estimate there are les* than 80.000 Cubans in the field, and this new reinforcement indi cates that Ge i. Campos is gettii g ready to carry out his pla > of crushing them as Grant crushed Leo, by weight of numb«rs. There are two important absta cles in the way of the early suc cess of such a plan. Gen. Campos is not Grant and the Cubans ar* not likely to remain in any one olace long enough to be crushed. They know the country its moras » s, i s jungles and i's mountains; ihey'have the sympathy of the pei.p'e and the ability to wear oui hosti!e i-rmifts m skirmishes wi'b out ever staking cone usions in a pitched battle.
