Notes of tho Camp,
Special from a Stuff Correspondent.
, Camp Alger, Va., July 22. Another
sljam battle this morning acted as a
temporary relief to the monotony.
Mpjor Stillwcll's First battalion took a
defensive position In tho woods and
Major Wood's men of the Second bat
talion attacked them. It wus planned
by Major Wood to como upon tho foo
from three sides and tho plan would
have carried but for one company on
the right flank disclosing Itself by sud
d'ently breaking out of tho brush Into
an open field. Two companies, C and
D, were sent against them and they
had to retire.
This disorganized the whole plan of
attack, but despite tho accident Major
Wood gained a good position with his
n)uln body and If leud whs used In
stead of blank caitrldges It would have
been even up, one battalion having the
protection of the woods and the other
having the heavily covered gully for
protection.
The most notable feat of tho engage
ment was the daring reconnoiteilng of
Major Wood and his adjutant, 11. M.
Coursen. They succeeded In reaching
an old slave cabin within the enemy's
lines, watched the woik of the foe and
got away again vlthout drawing a
shot. Some of the companies crawled
tVvo miles through the dense woods to
gain positions to which they wore as
signed. They are ready to aver that If
CJuban barbed wlie troclms are any
Vforec than Virginia creepers they want
A plentiful, supply of who Ulppets
when they go to the front.
THD CAMP GROUND.
The ground on which the regiment
Is now encamped contulns much of In
terest to the northernmen and the
hoys, between times, find orollt and
pleasure in wandering over tho old
plantation viewing the relics of slav
ery dayo and learning of the hlstoilcal
Incident? that transpired here and
hereabouts. No battles weie fought
In tho Immediate neighborhood, but ac
cording to the local historians thero
were any number around about. In
war days tho plantation was owned
V'y Nat Hunter, who went with his
state a a (Utti-tcrmruster and was tak
en prl'sper thrfc days before the sur
rnder, Oho' of his slaves Jim, Just
Jim, now S2. ears of age, Is still on
the farm although the "mahstuh" died
yeais ago and another man has been
running the farm for over fifteen
years.
Jim went into the confederate ser
vice ns a teamster In his master s wag
on train. He Indignantly resented the
Intimation implied In the question:
"Did you enlist or did you Just go
with your master?"
"No, sah! No, Indeedee, suh. I
Mood up fo' mah stale. I went out
fo" ole VIrglny, I did, suh."
He was and still Is Just as much :v
rebel as those who would have kept
him In bondage. A younger and un
usually Intelligent negio, Chailes Tay
lor, who married one ot Mr. Hunter's
women and was brought by Hunter
and placed In charge of the farm dur
ing the owner's absence at the front,
tolls that the slave owners in this re
gion were as a rule very good men and
their slaves, generally, felt as keenly
d, their masters, the reverses which
the war brought upon them. They
weie nil glad to be free, of couise, ho
fcHjd, but the were contented as the
were and that they did not (aie to
leave their,, old matters, was attested
liv the fact that the most of those who
hive' died, 'on the place" ure still here. 1
MANY LIKE JIM.
There were many old fellows like
Jim, he said, who thought more of their
masters and their masteis' interest
than of their own freedom. The slave
cabins, now fast falllnc to decay, aro
encountered all over the farm and the
bell which formerly summoned the
workers from the rleld still stands on
n ciotched pole In the rear of the
house. "Most of the tannine Is now
dene by day laboi.ers. Few of tho
larger plantations arc worked to their
full capacity. Acres upon acres are
allowed to grow wild and unfertile for
the want of tilling and what giound
dr. cultivated is from the appearance
of the 'crops, but pporly cated for, the
the corn for lnstanct- in the same
pitch ranging In heighth from a foot
to six feet.
The only drawback the place has ns
a camp ground Is that in common with
all other parts of the country herea
bouts the oll is of such u porous na
ture that streams of any considerable
elze are Impossible. One could dig
one hundred feet in the ground with
out having to use a pick. The artesian
well went down 110 feet before It
struck anything solid. A lake or a
good swiftly coursing brook would
make this an Ideal camp.
The well uinkers are still pounding
away without results. While waiting
on this measley method of providing
water the 000 men of the regiment are
scouring the neighborhood with cans
and barrels for the water. Yesterday
water was being bought from colored
teamsters for twenty-five cents a bar
rel. There Is no telling how long this
rtate of affairs will exist.
Charles Campbell tho owner of
Campbell's acres, was held yesterday
nt Fairfax court house for permitting
Intoxicants to be sold on his premlsex,
and was fined J 100. The maximum
penalty is $1,000 tine and three months
in Jail.
UIFLE PRACTICE.
itaw that It Is evident the second
corps will remain here for the sum
mer, headquarters has taken steps to
give the men something practical in
the way of shooting In warfare. Nine
teen rifle ranges are to be established
oh the banks of the Potomac, and each
brigade on Its turn will bo sent there
fcr a two days' sojourn, to get used
to hard marching, to enjoy bathing
and to get some rifle practice. The
schedule has not yet been published.
Word was received yesterday that
Private Fred Page, one of Company
B's missing men, Is In Scranton hav
ing a gopd time, There Is a good time
awaiting his return. Nothing has I ten
heard of, the other missing man Pri
vate Jessup Klrkendale. Having been
absent over ten days, he Is a deserter
in the eyes ofhe, law, and would have
to face that charge in a court-martial'
if he Bhou'ld -return. It is feared here,
though, that he will never .return.
Private Harry CarJJtijr, of -Company
r, was tried by court martial yester
day for leaving camp without permis
sion after having been reduced to tho
ranks for overstaying a pass, and was
sentenced to thirty days at hard labor.
All of the Thirteenth's sick and In
jured men aro reported to bo doing
nicely nt tho hospitals. Private Chris
tian Evans, who was Jabbed In tho
abdomen with n bayonet, Is now
thought to be out of danger nnd will
doubtlessly recover. The typhoid fever
patients are on the mend and the sur
geons are confident that thero will be
no further fatalities from tho dread
disease. No new enses have developed
since coming here nnd it is thought
that tho disease has been stamped out
as far as this regiment Is concerned.
Private Joseph O'Hara, of Company
n, left for home last night on a seven
days' furlough.
Chaplain Stnhl Is confined to his tent
with a slight attack ot biliousness. He
missed dress parade yesterday for the
first time on the present tour of duty.
Privates Elmer E. Freeman nnd
George A. Dolph, of Company A, nro
back from their week's furlough.
Sergeant Leslie Frutchey, of Com
pany H, Is enjoying a furlough Ovhis
home in Scranton.
Rufus J. Foster, of Scranton, Is tho
guest of Captain Dermnn, of Company
A.
Private Clarence Z. Myers, of the
division hospital corps, who contracted
typhoid fever while acting ns a nurse,
was yesterday reported cured and as
signed to his place on the hospital
corps.
Ten days rations were yesterday is
sued to the Third brigade.
Private James A. Corbett, of Com
pany C, Is back from his furlough.
CHEERED FOR MUSH.
Last nlsht about 9 o'clock the Thir
teenth started to cheer like mad. One
company after another would take up
the yelling and for nearly half nn hour
tho hurrahing traveled from one end
of the line"" to the other. Soon the
Eighth got the fever nnd they, too,
yelled and yelled. Everybody seemed
to have gone enthusiastically daft.
The newspaper men quit their cnndle
lllumlnated escritoires and ran hither
nnd thither to find out what It all
meant. Some said that word had como
that wo were to go to Porto Rico. No
body could tell, though, who was nu
thoilty for the story. Down at the
Eighth's camp It was learned that
Colonel Hoffman's men were yelling
becnuse the Thirteenth was yelling
and they understood tho Thirteenth
was yelling because word had come of
a call to the front. After roll call,
when things had quieted down, It was
disclosed that all tho excitement was
occasioned In n most unromantlc man
ner. "Buff" Malott, of Company B,
nnnounced on his street that they were
to have fried mush for breakfast.
Three cheers were at once given for
fried Inush and three more for Malott.
Company G wanted to know what It
all meant. "Porto Rico," some one
said. "Hurrah for Porto Rico." Com
pany E took It up. Then Companies
A and D and the rest, and finally it
got to the Eighth. Thus it was.
Two thousand men yelling like mad
men for "Buff" Malott and fried mush.
And the Intrepid war correspondents
relit their candles and damned Malott
and his mush. T. J. Duffy.
ONE PHILIPPINE RAILROAD.
It Runs From Manila North to the
Port of Dagupan.
From the Railway Age.
The Manila nnd Dagupan railway,
tho only railway In tho Philippine
Islands, is running along smoothly as
If peace prevailed throughout the land,
says the Manila, correspondent. Ordi
narily railroads suffer as much Incon
venience and loss in business and dam
age as any other line of business at
times when comparatively small coun
tries are In n statu of rebellion. This
loss is not only because of demoraliza
tion in freight business and from com
mon disinclination of people to travel
where the existence of t-ocial disorder
creates an additional element of risk
In travelling on public canters, but be
cause of destiuetlon of railroad prop
erty, as a matter of proper warfaic
and military stiategy, as ha,s been the
case in Cuba. Tho Philippine railroad
has been remarkably fortunate In tho
respect of en)ylng Immunity from In
convenience and violence at the hands
of the Insurgents to fortunate, Indeed,
a? to agreeably suiprlso and disap
point the management of that prop
erty. The road Is of 3-feet 6-Inch gauge,
and runs fioni Manila, with a popula
tion of over ino.000, in an almost north
erly direction, 1J5 miles, through sev
eral large municipalities to Djgupan,
a reasonably prosperous seaport oi
about 30,000 touls. The island of Lu
zon, of which Manila is the capital,
has a population of about 3,500,000,
nearly half the entire population of the
twenty-one islands that form tho Phil
ippine group, nnd with an urea of near
ly double that of Great Britain. Tho
railroad, as might be expected, runs
throuch the most populous section of
Luzon.
While the railroad is private prop
erty and owned and managed by Euro
peans other than Spaniards, it was
thought the insurgents would never
theless try and prevent its operation,
at least spasmodically, inasmuch as it
was provine of so great advantage to
the government In the effort to quell
the revolt. There has, however, been
no trouble with the road as yet. The
forbearance of the rebels has caused
no little surprise among Spanish offic
ials. The Insurgents derailed a pas
senger train several months ago. Since
that time there has been absolutely no
violence. The rebel leaders were very
much displeased when they learned
that some of their subordinates had
molested a train, and at once gave or
ders that the personal and property
rights of foreigners other than Span-
lards should be respected and that this
order was Intended to apply particu
larly to the railroad, which they well
understood was the property of Eng
lish capitalists. The fact that the rail
road company has not since been sub
jected to tho slightest trouble or in
convenience, while the Immediate coun
try Is Involved in very serious and for
midable revolution, demonstrates these
facts: 1, That the Flllpplnos aro not
savages, warring Just for tho excite
ment of the thing. 2. That they aro
a peaceful and easily governed people,
and are regarding with respect tho
wishes of their recognized leaders. 3.
That they value the good will and sym
pathy of Europeans who live In the
Philippines and will unquestionably see
to It that these foreigners are pro
tected to the fullest possible extent.

THE REGATTA AT
PHILADELPHIA.
Surprise of the Day the Defeat of
Wright and Thompson rrincipal
Events.
Philadelphia, July 22. Tho twenty
sixth annual regatta of tho National
association of Amateur Oarsmen was
opened here today under tho most fa
vorable auspices. The weather was all
that could be desired, the water was
smooth and the contests were all good.
The races were rowed over tho na
tional course on tho Schuylkill river
In Falrmount park, and were witness
ed bv a great crowd of people. The
races were a mile nnd a half with a
turn. The clght-oared Fhell race was a
mile and a half straight away.
A large number of pleasure craft
lined along the river and presented a
pretty sight.
Today's events consisted of six races,
two trial heats In Intermediate sin
gles and finals in the senior pair oared,
senior double, senior four, nnd Inter
mediate eight oared shell. One cham
pionship prUe went to Toronto, anoth
er to Worcester, Mnss., and the other
two to Philadelphia crews.
Tho surprise of the day was the de
feat of Wright nnd Thompson, the ar
gonaut champion pair oared shell crew.
They were looked upon as sure win
ners but Exley and Scott, of the Penn
sylvania barge club, defeated them
quite easily.
II. W. Garfield, of the Albany Row
ing club, Albany, N. Y acted ns um
pire of today's races. James Pllklng
ton. of the Harlem Rowing club. New
York, was the starter. Mr. PlUMnpton
gave the honor of opening the regatta
to Mayor Charles F. Warwick, of this
city, who sent the first crew off in
fine style.
The Initial race of the day was the
first trial heat in the Intermediate sin
gle sculls M G. Davis, of New York,
und John McDInder nnd Frank Marsh,
of Philadelphia, weie the starters. All
got away together. At the turning
stake Hinder had gained a slight lead,
while Marsh and Davis were on even
terms. Binder Increased his lead In
the pull for finish and won by four
lengths. Davis also qualified for the
finals, being1 six kngths In ftont of
Marsh.
In the pair oared shell events thcio
v.a but two starters, Wright and
Thompson, of Toronto, and Exley and
Scott, of Philadelphia. They had
row yd but a shoit distance when It
was seen that the Aigonaut pair had
met their masteis. The Quakers took
the lead at the start and by the time
they reached the turning stake, three
qnntters of a mile nway, they were
three lengths In front. On the ome
stretch they fairly ran away from the
Canadians, winning by a!jout fifteen
lengths.
The eecond trial heat In the Interme
diate event was a pretty race be
tween West, of Chelsea, Mass., and
Kublk, of Springfield, Mass. The other
contetnnt, Wolf, of New" York, was
out of It almost from the start. Ku
blk turned in tho lead and on the
tun home increased the lead and won
by two lengths,
clubmate, Lewis, won the senior dou-
Ten Eyck, of Henley fame, and his
ble sculls in fine style. The other
crews entered were Marsh and Mono-
ghan and Maj'gerun nnd Halstead, of
Philadelphia. Ten Eyck and Lewis
started out In the lead, but Marsh and
Monoghan quickly cuught them. The
Masaschusetts pair then began to row
as pretty a race as has been seen here
In a long time. Their blade work was
perfect, and they oon had the lead
agalnt. At the three-quarter stake
Ten Eyck and Lewis weie a length
In front of Marsh and Monoghan.
They put up a pretty sculling and
won by two lengths. Margerum and
Halstead were ubout six lengths be
hind Marsh and Monoghan.
There were three starters In the
senior four-oared shell tace Argo
naut, Toronto, Ariel, of Baltimore,
und Western of St. Loul.
The Arlels got the worst of the start
by over a half length. The St. Louis
men did considerable splashing, while
the Argonauts showed fine oarsman
ship, which enubled them to take the
lead. At the turning stake the Argo
nauts led by a length, while the Arlels
were a half length In front of the west
ern crew. By a splendid spurt the Ar
lels caught and passed the Canucks.
They could not hold the lead, how
ever, and the Canadians won by one
length. The St. Louis men steered a
bad race and were out of tho race at
the mile stake.
Pennsylvania barge and Falrmount,
of Philadelphia, and Union, of New
York, were the starters In tho eight
oared race, the last event of tho day.
Falrmount took the lead at the start
with Pennsylvania second. At the mile
stake the Falrmounts were a length
and a half In front of Pennsylvania.
Union was gradually left behind. Near
tho finish Pennsylvania spurted, but
Falrmount won by two lengths.

nlonshlt'S. GOLD MADE FROM SEA WATER.
From tho New York Tribune.
The sending of several Ingots from
North Lubce, Mc, to tho New York as
say office, a few days ago, draws pub
lie attention to a scheme for extracting
precious metals from sea wnter. It has
long been known that both gold nnd
silver In the form of chlorides exist In
the ocenn in the proportion of one grain
of gold and two of silver to each ton
of water. And now the Electrolytic
Marine Salts company, of Boston, has
In operation a plant for extracting gold
and silver. It Is alleged that the Ingots
sent to the assay office were the pro
duct of that establishment. They
weighed 92.2 ounces. A trifle over one
third of tho metal was gold, nnd less
than two thirds was silver. Tho value
of the former was estimated by Uncle
Sam's experts nt $599.61, and of tho
latter at $32.19. It Is asserted by nn offi
cial of the company that extracted this
metal that tho operation cost about
$103.
It Is well known thnt many chemical
compounds can be separated into their
constituent elements by electrolysis. A
good Illustration is afforded by the
Woolf & Hermlte's system of disinfec
tion by means of clectrolyzed sea wat
er. Common table salt Is known to the
chemists ns "chloride of sodium." If a
quantity of salt water can be properly
treated with electricity, this chlorine
and sodium are divorced. The latter
forms new combinations. The former,
with ozone, which Is Incidentally liber
ated, kills the germs which It Is sought
to get rid of.
A variation of this operation Is un
dertaken at the North Luhec establish
ment. Instead of saving the gas and
letting the metal go, ns Woolf & Her
mite do, they let the gas go and seek to
retain the metal. Moreover, their pro
cess Is so conducted as to deal with the
chlorides of gold and silver, and not
with that of sodium. And It has sev
eral features which nre still kept se
cret. Arthur B. Ryan, president of the
Electrolytic Marine Salts Company,
said to a Tribune reporter last week:
"Wo picked up $50,000 In Boston nnd
vicinity last November, with which a
working plant was built at North Le
bec. This consists, in part, of a salt
water lagoon, with nn extent of about
four acres nnd a depth of nine feet. It
has a dam at Its entrance. The tide
at this point varies from seventeen to
twenty feet In height. By a system of
gates we impound the salt water at
high tide, and when the tide is low wu
allow the water to run out through a
sluiceway, and treat it with chemicals
and electricity.
"We have at this time 114 separate
machines, which we have named ac
cumulators." Each has an Independent
water supply and is capable of handling
about twenty tons of water per hour.
We aie able to use about eight hours
of each tide, making sixteen hours a
day that we can run tho accumulators.
The number of accumulators that can
be used on any given body of water
simply Is the number that, at twenty
tons per hour, will empty it In some
six hours.
"Our estimate Is that sea water con
tains about one grain of gold and two
grains of silver per ton. We have been
able to find this quantity of gold and
silver In a large number of tests. But
we were In search of a method of ex
traction that was profitable; and in
this research we devised a method of
rapid precipitation that was available
In the largest quantities of water and
Inexpensive in working. So that while
we get only one-tenth of the quantity
available In any given body of salt
water, we are able to handle such large
quantities of the water that the re
sults show an enormous profit. The
working of our system Is entirely au
tomatic. "The Ingots which we sent to the As
say office were the output of thirty-six
accumulators, worklns fourteen days.
They treated 11,520 tons of water a day,
or 1G1.2S0 altogether. The cost of run
ning 10 accumulators for seven days
will not exceed $150. Our nctual figures
are $117. But, allowing for expenses that
we cannot compute, we assume $150 ns a
fair estimate. To run each machine
for fourteen days would cost about $3;
and the operation of the thirty-six
which did this particular work should
have cost $10S. Our private tests show
that while each accumulator involves
an expense of $1.50 a week, It yields
a gross return of $1,27 per day.
"We aro now planning to erect near
the first establishment at North Lu
bec a second one, with a water area
of eighty acres, a depth of ten feet
and a capacity for each tide of about
1,200,000 tons of water."
SEEDS AND STATISTICS.
The Distribution by the Government
of These Supplies Since 1853.
Since 1S53 tho United States gov
ernment has expended In tho distribu
tion of seeds and in the promulgation
of statistics concerning them $3,476,802.
The cost of seeds and of staistlcs on
the seed question involves an expen
tilure now of $150,000 a year, and all
efforts to restrain the activity of buco
lie congressmen In this respect have
been doomed, it would seem, to dis
appointment. New York Sun.
