The Spanish-American War: views of Matanzas, Cuba - one of the principal streets in Matanzas, 1898. 'Matanzas is a fortified port on the north coast and a centre of the sugar industry. The waiting policy...adopted by Spain has given fresh impetus to the American preparations for an immediate invasion of Cuba, and this Saturday, May 14, is now given out as the probable date for the movement upon Havana. General Miles left Washington on Wednesday for Tampa, to command the invading force'. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
