Camp Alter, Dunn taring, Va., Au&.
B. Double dashes and exclamation
points are the only typographic charac
ters that would spell out the senti
ments of the men of the Third brigade
this hot and muggy day. It wasn't
bo bad until the First Connecticut be
Kan to celebrate. Then the Pennsylva
rilans lost all patience. Two weeks ago
the Connecticut regiment came here
from Its state encampment, A sor
rier lot of looking soldiers never shoul
dered a gun. Thirty-seven of them,
by actual count, fell out of tho ranks
during the ten minutes' walk from
33unn Lorlng station to their camp
site ncrosj the valley from the Penn
sylvania brigade.
Surgeon Major Focht, of the Eighth
Pennsylvania, who eared for the fal
len, ascribed alcohol as the cause of
complaint In thirty-five of the thlrty
ecven cases. Ever since, the Connect
icut people have kept up tho pace at
which they started In. Wild orgies
that disturbed the camp until early
morn were no uncommon thing. A
stabbing affray nnd many minor inci
dents of a like character were among
their contributions to tho records of
the court-martial.
A few nights ago thty had some
rort of goings-on in which their drum
corps augmented by fish horns and tin
pans kep up a terrible din until long
nfter midnight. If there was any one
regiment In the country, excepting,
possibly, the Sixth Pennsylvania, that
would be naturally picked upon to stay
around Virginia guarding berry pat
ches, it was that same First Connect
icut. Imagine the feelings of our well
drilled, thoroughly equipped and per
fectly disciplined lads, lying in their
darkened tents from 3.30 until 1 o'clock
last night listening to their undeserv
ing neighbors across the way riotously
celebrating their good fortune at be
ing ordered to Porto Rico. There is
no word expletive enough In the lan
guage to half portray the feelings of
tho unfortunate Pcnnsylvanlans.
THE PHILOSOPHICAL ONES.
Some of tho philosophical ones are
offering consolation by saying, "Ach,
we didn't went to go on such an expe
dition as that, anyway." Everybody
who watches this phase of the war
doings realizes at a glance that this
expedition Is nothing more or leps than
a movement to satisfy the clomorlngs
of the unfortunate soldiers and politi
cians. General Miles refused to "re
quest" that reinforcements be sent
him. "General Wade may come if he
wishes to," is the plain English of bis
dltpatch. The make-up of the expe
dition is evidence enough that state
representatives and not soldiers of the
United States were picked upon. There
is no great glory in being part of
such nn expedition, it is Junket, pure
ami simple.
Five new cases of "epermeral fever"
were sent out of the Thirteenth regi
ment to the division hospital during
the past twenty-four hours. The vic
tims are Carl J. Frank, private. Com
pany D; Harry Grlnor, Company D;
Henry H. .Melnzer, private. Company
C; Thomas Carroll, private. Company
B; Michael Keogh, private. Company
D. None of the patients show symp
toms of malignant typhoid, but It is
feared by .Major Keller that all will
develop into mild typhoid at least.
The patients previously Fent to the
hospital nre still improving, even Ser
geant Kelper.who It was thought would
die. being expected to recover.
General Butler thinks ho will bo able
to have his division en route to Manas
sas by Tuesday next. He is more anx
ious than anv one else to get to the
new camp, as it was he who suggested
it to the war department. The confed
erate army, numbering 60,000 men, was
encamped there for five months. Gen
eral Butler says that during all that
time there was no complaint of a lack
of water. Bull Bun nnd Brood Run
arc both good streams, he maintains,
and will easily supply the whole corps
with all the water It will need for
every purpose.
NOT WATER ENOUGH.
There are others, however, and
among them members of tho Virginia
regiment llvlnc In that nim ,..i,
say the two streams refem-d to are
not of sumclcnt volume to supply the
needs of a corps and that eventuully,
in their opinion, the camp ' will be
moved farther on to some point on the
Rappahannock, likely near Remington.
There are many believers still In the
story that the troops will eventually
go Into permanent camp at Mt. Gretna
or Sea Girt, there to remain until dls
bandment or a possible call to tho
front.
A good-sized wager was laid this
morning by a prominent Tennsylva
nlan, who is a member of General
Gobln's stuff, that tho brigade would
be disbanded and sent homo before the
third Monday in October. The bet was
accepted by the taker another nt
tache of the staff who was arguing
that the Pennsylvania troops would
surely receive an assignment as an
army of occupation some place or an
other. The other was contending that
leaving Manila out of the question, be
cause if there Is any occupying to bo
done the troops already there will do
it, there will be enough regulars to oc
cupy all the posts that will need occu
pying and It is not likely that volun
teers will be given work, and regulars
left idle.

Chaplain Stahl today posted tho fol
lowing notice nt the headquarters of

ECHOES OF THE WAR.
The sad news was received In Ply
mouth yesterday that Julius B. Well, a
prominent young Hebrew of that town,
was killed In the battle near Santiago
last month, and that his body was
buried at SIboney, Cuba, near the bat
tlefield. The' deceased was twenty
eight years of age. He was born in
Plymouth, his father, now deceased,
having been In the butcher business
there for many years. Upon the death
of Mr. Well. Julius and his mother
continued the business for a time.
About a year ago the young man went
to Mehoopany and thence to Buffalo,
where, at the opening of the war, he
enlisted In tho Thirteenth Infantry,
United States army. This was one of
the three regiments which participated
In the famous charge up San Juan hill,
before Santiago, and Private Well was
among those who fell. The ofllclal list
of the dead cabled to Washington In
correctly gave his name as Julius
Weller, and It was not until this week,
while the clerks in the war depart
ment were comparing the list with the
original muster roll, that the error was
discovered. Secretary Alger then sent
n letter to the young man's family In
Plymouth, notifying them of his death.
Young Well was a member of the
Shawnee Wheelmen, Plymouth, and of
the Young Men's Hebrew association,
Wilkes-Barrc. He was also chief usher
in the Grand opera house, Wllkes
Barre. Besides his mother. Mrs. Bertha
W. Well, of Plymouth, the following
brothers and sisters survive: Mrs. A.
Breakstone, of Luzerne; Isaac M Jen
nie, Bessie, Bella and Ray, of Ply
mouth, and Abram, who resides at An
derson, S. C.
Chester Wells, first assistant en
gineer on the battleship Texas, visited
his home at Spring Hill, Bradford
county, tho early part of the week.
Engineer Wells' vessel took a promi
nent part in tho destruction of Cer
vera's lleet and he also witnessed the
daring act of Lieutenant Hobson In
sinking the Merrlmac In the channel
at Santiago, After the engagement
Engineer Wells was one of tho first to
board the Mnrin Teresa and secured a
number of souvenirs, among them bp
Ing a mauser rifle, a lot of cartridges
and several projectiles and shells. En
gineer Wells was a classmate of the
late Ensign Bagley. who was killed
early in the Cuban campaign. After
graduating at Annapolis, Wells served
his time ns a cadet, after which he was
assigned to the Concord. He was af
terwards placed on duty at the New
York navy yard, and In the latter part
of lS)fi he was assigned to the battle
ship Texas. His ship Is In need of ex
tensive repairs, owing to a Spanish
shell going through Its armor plate at
the Santiago battle. Mr. Wells Is a
son of State Dairy and Food Commis
sioner Levi S. Wells.
Lieutenant George S. McLean, son
of Attorney V, S. Mc Lean, of Wilkes
Bane, arrived in town from Chlckn
mauga Wednesday and loft for Oanoga
i.uKc a conpie or nours later, where
he hopes tho bracing air will bring him
bock to health. Lieutenant McLean
left homo weighing JS3 pounds and re
turns after his siege of typhoid weigh
ing 139 pounds. He shows the effect of
the sickness but has been gaining fast
during tho last few days Lieutenant
McLean Is on General Andrews's staff
and has an intimate knowledge of his
superior oflleer's good traits of charac
ter Ail me soiuiers like him. "Tho
typhoid fever." said the lieutenant in
an Interview with a Wllkes-Barro Rec
ord man. "Is caused chiefly by tho
putrid water which the men have quite
frequently been obliged to drink. Not
a word of condemnation can be said of
the government with respect to the
food supply, either as to qurlity or
quantity. There is an abundance of
good, wholesome food, but the woter
is abominable." The lieutenant did
not go to any of tho hospitals, but
was uttendfd In his own quarters by
Drs, Stewait, Weaver and Mirer, for
whom he has many words of praise.
Lieutenant McLean cannot see that
the canteen has done any harm. There
Is no opportunity for becoming in
toxicated. Pennsylvania Pensions.

BOWS ONLY TO VICTORIA.
Tho American Wife of Parliamentary
Secretary Curzon Destined to Reign
at tho Splendid Palaces lu Calcutta
and Simla.
London, Aug. 4. It Is reported hero
today that the distinguished young dip
lomatist, George N. Curzon, parlia
mentary secretary for the foreign of
fice, has accepted the appointment as
viceroy of India. He will tako with
him to the brilliant courts of Calcutta
und Simla nn American woman, his
wife, formerly Miss Mary L. Letter, of
Chicago, III., whom he met when sho
was a reigning belle In Washington
society. Mr. Curzon is the eldest son
of Lord Scarsdalc, is an Oxonian and
a gold mc'dallst of tho Royal Geo
graphical society. He formerly hold
the position of under secretary for In
dia, nnd Is the author of a number of
prize essays, including "Russia in
Central Asia," "Prussia and the Per
sian Question" and "Problems of tho
Far East."
It Is a remarkable fact that his
American wife Is one of the strongest
factors In his appointment, and It tes
tifies in tho highest possible way to
England's regard for an Anglo-Saxon
alliance and will be tho finest compli
ment the British nation could pay nn
American. This fact Is seriously taken
Into consideration by tho queen and
cabinet.
Comparatively few persons have a,
correct idea of tho Importance' of tho
vlccroyalty of Indln, from which of
fice the present Incumbent, Lord Elgin,
will retire In November next. It Is un
questionably the highest appointive
position under tho British government.
As the representative of tho queen, the
viceroy ranks ns ruler of about 300,000,
000 people, while his wife Is the social
Inferior to only one woman in the
world, the Queen, Empress Victoria.
A number of the United Service club,
at Simla, discussed the question of tho
viceroyalty succession nnd the exalted
character of the office and Its brilliant
surroundings, recently pictured It thus:
"The next viceroy Is the question of
the hour. All agree that the next ruler
must be a strong man of affairs, who
can keep a level head In a crisis. But
another point on which opinions coin
cide remarkably touches the personal
ity of tho viceroy's consort.
"Goodness nlono knows why. Why
should a mere man all sufllce ns the
representative of tho queen and em
press of India nnd no notice be taken
of the woman who must preside over
the vlcercgul courts of Calcutta and
Simla?
"I might dllato on the Importance of
the grando ihuno who enn entertain
regally; who can enter Joyously Into
the life of our society, give it tone and
sot the fashion In all things, both great
and small. These matters may sound
like trlvlaltles, but they are not. They
make for tho peace and prosperity of
the empire.
"Mrs. Curzon Is an American lndv,
wealthy, accomplished, charming. The
Anglo-Indians pride themselves on
their freedom from Insular prejudices.
We should accord the very warmest
welcome to this fair American.
"Mrs. Curzon would not entirely sev
er herself from the land of her birth
were she to come to India. An English
viceroy and an American consort oc
cupying the throne of the Grent Moguls
would be a living, splendid testimony
that an Anglo-Saxon alliance Is no
more passing phrase. India would be
glad thereat."
TO OPEN MARKETS.
Tho Petition Has Been Sent to Pres
ident McKinley.
Chicago. Aug. 4. A move was made
today to Include In the peace treaty
with Spain provisions for opening new
markets for the products of American
industry. Tho following telegram,
which was sent tonight to President
McKinley, is self explanatory:
To tho President, Washington:
The following preamble and resolutions
wore passed at a meeting of tho directors
of the Illinois Manufacturei s' association
today:
Whereas, Negotiations for peace are
now ponding between this country nnd
Spain, in wblvli negotiations the president
of the United States has outlined his de
mands, and,
Whereas, It Is believed that such nego.
tlatlons will result in the appointment of
commissioners by both countries for the
purpose of concluding a treaty of peace,
and,
Whereas. It Is of great Importance to
the manufacturers of ibis country, and
consequently of equal Importance to all
of Its people, that the m.irkets of the
world bo open to Its manufactures; now,
therefore, bo It
Resolved, Without In any way express.
Ing an opinion upon the question of ac
quisition of Spanish territory by this
country, that It Is the sense of this as
sociation that the president of the United
States be and ho Is hereby respectfully
rrqucstcd to Instruct those having In
charge for this country the conclusion of
such treaty of peace, to exact that tho
ports of nil Spunlsh terrltor in tho Pa
cific ocean be opened upon the most lib
eral terms to nil products of American in
dustry: be It further
Resolved, That the secretary of this
association send a copy of these resolu
tions to President McKinley.
(Signed) W. B. Conkey. President.
J. M. Glenn, Secretary.
TROOPS WILL REST.
Shatter's Army to Be Sent to Mon
tauk Point at Once.
Washington, Aug. 4. An ofllclal
statement wns issued this afternoon
stating that tho secretary of war has
ordered General Shatter's troops re
lieved from further duty in Santiago
as fast as transportation can be pro
vided and the transfer of Spanish
prisoners will admit of reduction of tho
garrison. Ships for the Spunlsh pris
oners with a currying capacity of 18,
00 men, m now on the way to San
tiago and the removal of the prisoners
will proceed rapldy.
There are now eight American trans
poits at Santiago with a capacity of
!,770 men, and these will sail for Now
York as fast as they can be comfort
ably embarked.
The rest at Montnuk Point will pre
pare these seasoned troops for the cam
paign against Havana, in which they
probably will tako part. Th3 first
transport left Santiago yesterday. The
movement is expected to be completed
by the 20th of tho month. Five Lttlted
States volunteer regiments, Immunes,
have been ordered to Santiago for
garrison duty; tho first has already
arrived, tho others uro being pushed
forward as rapidly as the transp cita
tion can bo furnished.
THE WAR AT ILOILO.
Operations Have Been Pushed with
Vigor,
Madrid. Aug. 4. Official reports from
Hollo, brought up to July 15, show that
the operations against the Insurgents
inVlscayas had been vlgorouslypushed;
that there had been several skirmishes
with bands in the Camarlnes province,
the insurgents being beaten, and that
tho Insurrection In the northern prov
inces had been suppressed.
According to the same reports a
British steamer, loaded with natives
and a cargo of arms, coasted along tho
VIscayas shore, but the Inhabitants of
tho eastern towns opposed a landing
of munitions. On the queen regent's
nnmo day the notables of VIscayas
tendered Genernl Rlos assurances of
their devotion to the throne.
TOBACCO TARIFF FOR CUBA.
Schedules to Follow United States
Internal Rovenuo Rates.
Washington, Aug. 4. It Is understood
that the officials of the war depart
ment have almost completed the to
bacco tariff schedules to be applied to
Cuban ports nnd that they are to fol
low very closely, if not exuetly, our
own internal revenue rates. The lat
ter are as follows: Twelve cents a
pound on manufactured tobacco and
snuff, $3.00 per thousand on cigars
weighing more than three pounds to
the thousand; Jb50 on cigarettes weigh
ing not more than three pounds to the
thousand, nnd $1 a thousand on all to
bacco cigarettes weighing not more
than three pounds to the thousand.
The general tariff for Porto Rico has
been prepared at the treasury depart
ment and is now awaiting the action
of the war department. It Is intimat
ed that tho rates are to follow closely
tho present Spanish rates' ns applied
to imports from Spain, which are about
10 per cent, less than tho general rates
collected upon shipments from other
countries.
INDIANA THE WINNER.
Big Surprise at the Grand Circuit
Races.
Columbus, O., Aug. 4. The track for
tho grand circuit races at tho Colum
bus Driving park was heavy today as
a result of recent rnlns, but very fast
time was made In the three races run
in tho mud. The 2.11 pace furnished
the sensation of the day. Charlie B
was backed by Hublnger to win this
race, and It Is said his losings aggre
gate $0,000. In the pools Charlie B first
brought $22.r. to $300 for the field and
llublnger's nervy betting soon forced
the field down to $100. It Is said the
pools on this race nmounted to $25,000.
The sensation was furnished when In
diana, a horse that was never consid
ered, won the race in straight heats.
Indiana has speed but Is a bad actor.
The mud Just suited him. however, and
he paced without a break, never being
In danger. The best Charlie B could
do was to take fourth place. Murphy
Is said to have been a big winner in
the pools. Second place went to Allor
ls. Time, 2.1U4, 2.10W. 2.1214. Owing
to the condition of the track, Star
Pointer will not go against the track
record until Saturday.
The favorites won In both the other
races. Directum Kelly lost the second
heat of 2.24 trot by a break, but did
not again disappoint his backers.
The second heat was won by True
Chimes, who took second money. Best
time, 2.13't.
In the 2.27 pace. Split Silk (the fa
vorite) won easily, but lost the third
heat, which was taken by The Swift.
Best time, 2.13U.
