The above order transferred bodily I the command organized during the! Spanish War to take the place of Com- j i pan.v D, of the Eighth Regiment. 1 X. U. P., while absent from the State t in service in the United States Volun-! eer Army. The company was officered' by Captain Maurice E. Finney, First! Lieutenant Nicholas Tack and Second j Lieutenant Harry O. lioutz, all ofj ; whom had served in Company D priori to the breaking out of the Span-! ish War. A fair percentage of the en-i listed men had served in the same' .company and had returned home from 1 j Camp Hastings, Mt. Gretna, in May, 1898, for various reasons. As Company il. Eleventh Regiment, j the command had performed every | duty assigned to it in a most efficient i manner while part of the Provisional j National Guard of Pennsylvania, and! when that body was disbanded owing! to the reinstatement of the old com-1 panics, regiments and brigades, the company was one of the few to be re ■ tained in service. Company I, Eighth Regiment. Penn sylvania Volunteer Infantry, of Wrightsvllle, having failed to reor ganize after ninister-oiit of the regl i men! at ('amp Mackenzie. Georgia, in 1899, the State officials immediately ! accepted the entire Harrisburg com j pany for the reorganized Eighth Regi i ment In its placp.

It was , deemed wise lo organise the National j Guard of Pennsylvania on the same j lines as to regimental organization as j that of the United States Army, and j which provided for twelve companies i and three battalions of four companies ; fach to each regiment of Infantry, j Some of the old company organiza ! Hons failed to reinstate themselves in the National Guard, and this, to j get her with the additional companies i that would be required, permitted the I transfer of some of the companies of the new regiments. Many of these companies were very efficient organi zations. and assignment or transfer of new companies to old regiments was made. Under this arrangement Company I was transferred entire to the Eighth Regiment. The reorganization of the regiment was made under orders'dated April 21, 1899, and the transfer of Company i I took place under order of June 21 i 1899. Fnder Captain Finney's control and ! instruction the company soon took a high position among the older com , panics in the regiment and in a short ;time became known throughout the I Guard for its efficiency, as shown l>v ; the reports of inspecting officers of i both the National Guard of Pennsylva nia and of the United States Army. The names of the officers and eniist ■ ed men on the rolls of the company at the time of transfer were practically I the same as contained in the roster of I Company H. Eleventh Regiment, and remained so for some time. The first 'change in officers was made when Sec ond Lieutenant Harry C. Houtz was appointed battalion adjutant in the Eighth Regiment and Sergeant Edwin H. Ridgway was elected second lieu tenant. Work of the Company During its year's existence as Com pany H, Eleventh Regiment, the com mand took part in everything of a military nature occurring during those busy times, including the inauguration of Governor William A. Stone in Jan uary, 1899, and the unveiling of the equestrian statue of Major General John K. Hartranft in Capitol Park facing West State street. May 12 of that year. On August :: the company took part, in the parade and reception of Jesse J. B. Wall. Frank U Wall. Charles Delaney and Charles Pastor, four Mar rishurg boys who had served in the Philippine Islands with the Tenth Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, on their return home after muster-out of the regiment. February 22, 1900, Company 1 took part in the reception'of a cannon cap tured in Cuba by United States sol diers and presented the city of Har rlsl'urg by the government. it wa/s placed in Capitol Park in front of-the , Executive Building.

LEWIS WITHDRWAL STARTS GOSSIPERS Plainly Intimated That He Is Dis gusted With the Progres sive Leaders Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia, Jan. B.—The retire ment of William Draper Lewis, dean of the University of Pennsylvania law school, as chairman of the council of th© Progressive is believed to indicate a most serious break in the ltnes of the Washington party in Pennsylvania. Dean Lewis has ex plained his resignation by saying that his duties at tho law school com pelled him to give up the executive work which the chairmanship en tailed, but it is believed there is some thing more than this back of his re tirement. He had been frequently mentioned as the candidate of the [ Progressives for Governor and was believed to have the backing of Colonel Roosevelt and William Fllnn, but cer- I tain changes have come about which led to tho report that a man from this end of tho State will be chosen to lead the third party movement. At a conference of the Washington party leaders in Uarrisburg next week some details of the plans for the year will probably leak out. Senator Clapp, of Minnesota, and Senator Polndexter, of Washington, have been Invited to attend the conference and Impart some ginger. Men and women of the Progressive school will attend, as there must be a reorganization of the party's working forces. Among prominent Progressives In this city and throughout Western Pennsylvania there is a growing feel ing that the third party movement is doomed to disaster and many promi nent Republicans who supported Colonel Roosevelt have announced their Intention to line up with the old party. It is also pointed out that such Progressive leaders as United States Senator Bristow, of Kansas, and other Progressives in Nebraska and else where are getting back into line as fast as possible. Senator Bristow de clared recently ho believed "the rank and file of the Republican party fairly progressive."
