THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28. 1898.
THAT JOURNEY TO
THE QUAKER CITY
.WAS A SEVERE TEST OF ENDUR
ANCE FOR THE BOYS.
Boys Wero Drenched by tho Rain
When They Entered tho Cars and
Had No Way of Drying Their
Clothing Practically the Entire
Regiment Went to Philadelphia.
The Few Men Who Had to Re
main Behind Wero Vory Much
Disappointed.
Special to tho Scranton Tribune.
Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 27. It will be
many a day before tho members of the
Thirteenth, oa at present constituted,
will bo able, or ready to forfret tho
opening chapters of the history of the
regiment which nro to treat of the trip
to Philadelphia. The command Is cer
tainly "hoodoed," nnd It Is lmposslbleto
11 mi anything In the make-up or In the
habits of the Scranton Boldlcr boys,
which .would Indicate that they have
any particularly strong penchant for
water more than any other command
In the service: still, tho rule is that
overy time the iculinent moves, it
rains.
It rained six months nco, vhen we
etruck Camp Hastings; It rained the
evening of May 19th when we reached
Camp Alger at Fulls Church; it ruined
when we left Fulls Church, and when
wo arrived nt Dunn Luting; but per
haps, yesterday's drenching was the
worst, the most unkind, nnd the most
unwelcome of nil.
A snvEitn TEST.
The trip to the train from camp was,
rertalnly, a severe test. Wrapped In
their great-coats, and carrying each
man a gun, knapsack, haversack, and
canteen, they trudged their wav for
three miles up hill nnd down, through
fields, and over roads where the mud
was two and three Inches deep, und
which were so slippery that it was al
most Impossible to stand on one's feet.
Several times, the boys had to do a
"double quick" up or down a hill, but
made no complaints; and while they
were slipping on all sides, as if the
ground under their feet were covered
with Ice, only two or three fell, and
In these cases, nothing more serious re
sulted than a badly dlsllgured overcoat.
As far as your correspondent lemem
hors, only one man fell out. Oniric to
the steep hills, or to the iKissage back
or forth of at my wagons, or ambu
lances, which blocked the road and
necessitated short lests, it took oer
two hours to make the trip. Most of
that time It was raining, but the men
did not seem to mind It. They had left
camp with the evident purpose of
roughing It, and they wero not disap
pointed, or chasrined, at the mere in
convenience of u rain storm.
When the two Pennsylvania legi
ments und a battalion of the Fifteenth
Minnesota, lopresenting the Third bri
gade, i cached the sidings near the
main commissary, and midway letween
Mlddletown and Hlghsplre, there was
imich dissatisfaction, and especially
among the members of the Thirteenth,
who had to stand there like statues in
the cold drizzling rain with their
clothes nlready soaked and drenched,
nnd unrelieved of their knapsack, for
nearly an hour and a hnlf waltlnc for
n train. To make matters worse when
the train did como the boys were dls
satlstled to learn that they had to
travel In emigrant style only one car
and a half having been reserved for
one company, of sixty men, Including
their equipments and well drenched
over-coats. These arrangements were

A hundred silk waists here; some of
our own importing, some from New

TRIP WAS GLOOMY.
Tho trip to Philadelphia was gloomy.
Tho circumstances took much of the
splilt out of the men; and If anything
moro were needed to produce this ef
fect, the constant, lazy drizzle of rain,
which fell throughout the entire Jour
ney, nnd tho heavy mlRts and fogs
which prevented the possibility of ap
preciating the many beautiful scenes
along the route, completed tho do
morallaztlon. As the train drew near here, tho
weather began to clear considerably;
the boys were enlivened somewhat, and
as the train swept by some of the beau
tiful suburban homes, several cases of
Instantaneous flirtation wore recorded
Handkerchiefs would be waved, pnd
vxeryone would lean over to see who
wns waving, and to acknowledge the
courtesy If It were a young lady as
ves generally the case.
Practically tho entire Thirteenth ieg
Irr.cnt Is picsent to participate in tho
much lauded Jubilee ceremonies. Tho
smallest companies have not less than
sixty enlisted men, and some compan
ies have as high as scvcnty-llve. All
details and sick men were taken out,
nnd If-ft behind In order to continue th
most ordinary routine of camp life, and
to protect the property, private nnd
governmental, of the different compan
ies. S-onic of the boys who were left at
Camp Mende, were disappointed and
would have given a large percentage
of their month's wages, If they could
have come ulong.
The cost of this day's trip Uncle
Patnucl w ill have to foot not only now,
but hereafter. The men had to mat eh
quickly to the depot, and though wet
by the rain und by perspiration, they
were allowed to stand for a time In the
mud. Then they bat In tho cars, their
clothes being dried chiefly by the heat
of their bodies. There will be a liberal
crop of rheumatism, and of consequent
pensions. Richard J. Bourke.
MAY NOT GO TO CUBA.
Latest Rumor With Reference to the
Second Corps.
By Associated Pres.
Camp Meade, Mlddletown, Pa., Oct.
27. Those officers who were left nt
Camp Me.ide when the troops went to
the Philadelphia peace Jubilee, ore dis
cussing whether the Second corps will
be sent to Cuba or not, and the general
opinion Is that It will not, because of
the reported intention of the war de
partment to enlist 15,000 Cuban Insur
gents for police duty on the Island.
They think that the Seventh corps und
the regulais, with the Cubans, will be
sufficient to do all the work required,
nnd that the Second corps will not be
needed. There Is u growing belief that
the Second corps men will be kept In
southern camps until next cprlng and
then mustered out. Tho officers want
to go to Cuba, but the men aie not .so
unxlous.
The endeavor to have the corps
camped as a single body will not b
listened to at the war department, de
spite the fact that General Graham is
aveise to bi caking his command up In
to several camps. It Is pointed out
that the smaller camps are the health
ier, an instance of this being the camp
of the Two Hundred nnd Third New
York at Conewugo, below Mlddletown.
While at Camp Meade a great number
of the leglment wus 111, but since Its
Isolation the leglment has been very
healthy.
It Is reported that the order to mus
ter out the Fourteenth and Fifteenth
Pennsylvania teglments has been le
celved ut headquarters, but the docu
ment has not yet been opened, owing
to the absence of the general com
manding. As the troops will not be
home until Friday, their fate will not
be known until then.
Twelve fever patients were sent from
Camp Meade to Reading hospital today
and It is understood that nil will be re
moved to outside hospitals before the
troops go south.
There is a great pile of official busi
ness at Oeneral Graham's headquarters
awaiting his return from Philadelphia,
and some of it is regarded as very im
portant and vitally affecting some of
the regiments.
It was said In camp today that the
Tenth Ohio regiment, commanded by
Colonel Axllne, who Is a particular
friend of the president, will very likely
be mustered out, nnd that Governor
nushnell has arranged for this to take
place In the near future.

Camp West of Coumo, Porto Rico,
Oct. IS. It has been some time since
the readers of your paper have heard
from me. Tho reason for this Is thut
tho battalion, to which I belong, has
been detached from the tcglment t.lncu
Sept. 2, und as most of the men fiom
Scinnton and vicinity belong to tho
other batallons, I have not been able
to ltcep posted upon their movements.
Today, Dr. b'umuel E Moyer, vet
erinary surgeon of tho regiment, who
enlisted in Scranton, and whose home
Is at Jcrmyn, came to our camp to tave
the life of a valuable horse belonging
to Quartermaster Hasklns, who had
ridden hero the day before from head
quarters nt Ponce, und from him I ob
talnod some news of the regiment. Tha
doctor has well earned a reputation ns
a veterinary, lie has had something
like 200 mules nnd horses to take can
of and has lost but vory few, nnd Is
held In high regard by the officers of
tho regiment.
The work of the First battalion, near
Albontto, will be finished tomorrow, and
the detachment will unite with the re

The Governor Explains His Indorse
ment of Rioters Reiterates His
Determination to Prevent tho Im
portation of Laborers Into Illi
nois. Chicago, Oct. 27. A spclal despatch
to the Times-Herald from Madison, 111.,
quotes Governor Tanner as saying; "I
reiterate that I will not tolerate this
wholesale Importation of negroes Into
Illinois, and If I hear that a mob Is to
be brought Into this state, such as
was taken Into VIrdon, I caie not on
what railroad It comes or for whom
1 will meet It at the state line und
shoot It to pieces with gatllng guns."
The dispatch adds that Governor
Tanner made these remarks In a
speech delivered before 1,200 auditors
gathered nt the Knights of Pythias'
hall In Madison. They formed the
concluding statement in an address de
voted largely to the defense of his
course In the recent mine riots at Vlr
den. The governor reviewed at great
length the causes leading to rioting.
Ho held the operators to be at fault
In their dealings with the strikers,
nnd then, reverting to his acts when
the crisis came, said:
"When tho United StuteB govern
ernment found It necessary and deem
ed It Just to foibld tho Importation of
foreign labor Into this country 1 felt
that I was fully Justified in the course
I took nt Virden. That trouble never
would have occurred If the negroes
had not been brought there to take
the place of white men. The Impor
tations were lepresentatlves of the
scum of the country. I do not pro
pose to allow the operators to bring
theso people hero, and took what I
considered and still consider the prop
er means to prevent It."
