CAMP BRUMBAUGH NEARLY DEPLETED OF TROOPS SIXTH GOES AWAY IN EARLY EVENING Some Men Had Steel Cars Which Will Be Hot in Southern Climes [From a Staff Correspondent.] Camp Brumbaugh, Mt. Gretna. Pa.. July B.—The movement of the Fourth brigade for the Mexican border last night was attended by more or less of a stir. The whole Sixth regiment marched to the railroad sidings In heavy marching order, giving people an idea of what men must carry and the Fourth will do the same to-day.. Hundreds saw the start and General O'Neill and his staff lined up at the station and were cheered by the de parting men. The Sixth was the first to get away anything near like the time set to go and the departure was ended soon af ter 6. The regiment went out well equipped and with the men munching sandwiches. Shortly before the regiment left a large squad of recruits came In to go to the Eighth infantry and were im mediately taken in charge by the men. They came from a dozen counties and are to be examined during to-day. The firbt deserter was caught last evening. He was a Rhode Island man who had been enlisted in a Reading company. He "flew' the other evening and was found in a boxcar by some of his company. They tore the uniform off him, haled him to camp where the commander wrote out a dishonorable discharge and slapped him across the face with it. He slunk into the brush when they let him go. Men who have been inoculated for typhoid fever prevention are now suf fering from the effects of the second Injection and glad that they will be able to rest on trains. The typhoid treatment makes arms sore and is worse than vaccination. If there Is any weak spot It searches it out. In cidentally, the doctors, who are always veracious, tell the men that with the plain fare that they are getting the effects of the treatment are minimiz ed. Improvement of the roads is to go right on, which will be good news for many people who have been visiting the camp and who expect to get here when the recruiting depot is establish ed. A. B. H.

Gretna [From a <?taff Correspondent.] Camp Brumbaugh, Mt. Gretna, Pa., July B.—The greatest mobilization camp in Pennsylvania in over half a century will be closed and give way to a camp for recruitment of the or ganizations of the Keystone State Guard now in the federal service with in the next forty-eight hours. The Eighth regiment, which has its head quarters in Harrlsburg, will be the last regiment to leave camp, the reason be ing that its colonel is the Junior of a junior brigade. With Col. Finney and his men will go General C. T. O'Neill, Allentown, commanding the Fourth brigade, and his staff and the hospital troops who have remained behind to take care of the medical end of re cruiting. By nightfall to-morrow the troops will be on a "railroad in Penn sylvania" on the way to a "place on the border. "The war department does not want the routes and final destina tions published. Hence the informa tion is a bit indefinite. | The fact that the Eighth was the ! last on the list to go was a benefit, as has been pointed out. Under the cir j cumstances attending the medical ex | amination which tore holes in the I York. Chambersburg, Lewlstown and ( Bedford companies, the time on hand J has enabled the regimental officers to ido something toward fl'ling the gaps, t Then tha men have had chances for further drills, to recover from their ty phoid inoculation, to get used to camp food and other affairs in camp life and last of all to get well equipped. Schell Gets Everything If there is anything in the quarter master's stories which a regiment Is allowed that Quartermaster E. H. Schell has not taken out no one knows it. Captain Schell has requisitioned everything worth while and the men will go to the border with mosquito nets to wear around their heads and having everything but socks and un derwear of army pattern which they will get on the border. The men of the Eighth will go out fully equipped, one of the few regi ments that will have everything. Yes terday big packing boxes were opened and uniforms for everyone and some for the expected recruits were receiv ed, while Captain O. M. Copelln stack ed up ordnance. The regiment put in a busy day yesterday unpacking and to-day It Is getting "dolled up" for de parture to-morrow night. The time of departure and route of the Eighth are not definite, but the regiment may leave about 6. It Is doubtful if people who go to camp to see the regiment will have much time to greet the members as the command will strike canvas about noon and start to move stores to the station. It will march out about 6. Of course, all this may be changed by the re cruiting matters. I Col. Finney is being congratulated l upon the manner in which he has I equipped his men and everyone in 1 camp has been wishing him success In 1 getting rid of his recruiting troubles, 1 which came out a clear sky. The col onel only assumed command a short time ago and has had to face some big | problems. Captains Bretz and Ziegler to-day : reported some sore arms in their com j mands, but no one on the sick list. The i health of the regiment has been re i markable. The weather, which has been fine, enabling the men to get used j to their work without inconvenience. ; The soldiers say they do not mind marching In the heat. It is good prac ! tlce. Captain J. J. Hartman, who i took charge of Company K, of York, i is making a company out of it In spite of troubles. Transfers Begun It was a matter of great regret to Col. Finney to transfer men from the big companies from Harrisburg, Mahanoy City and Tamaqua to build up the York, Chambersburg and oth er companies, but all organizations had to show at least 65 and there was no help for it. The regiment reported 1,025 men to-day and will have more by night. Recruits are being eagerly awaited and the men of the regiment welcome them with cheers. The Eighth is equipped with white tents and it is predicted that they will not last long on the border, where khaki is the rule. All regiments of the brigade have white tents and there are bets as to how long the regular army will stand for canvas that can be seen twenty miles. The Eighth's wagons, which were not set up, were started off yesterday. The regiment will have 23. The Eighth went into the Spanish war with eight companies and about 850 men. It now has twelve compan ies and war strength would be over 1850. A. B. H. Americans Return to Mexico City; Alvarez Gives Up; Rout Bandits By Associatei Prejt Mexico City, July 7. More than seventy American families who left Mexico City for Vera Cruz on their way to the United States have returned here, convinced that all danger of serious complications between the two countries has p&ssed. More Americans who had decided to leave the country are expected to return here to-night. The bandit leader Alvarez, who op erated in the territory of Tepic, has asked for amnesty for himself and his band. With this surrender the paci fication of Tepic has been completed. General Romulo Figueroa has de feated a bandit force near Juchipila, in I the State of Zacatecas. Powder Strikers Vote Not to Go Back to Work Emporium. Pa., July 8. The Aetna 1 Explosives Company posted notices [ yesterday that the euncotton "mills would remain closed until further no tice. Every barroom and-wholesale liquor house was ordered closed last night until the strike is settled. Motor Boat Patrols Hunt For Sharks Along Coast Spring Lake, N. J., July B.—Motor boats manned by experienced fisher men, who trolled with quarters of sheep for bait and had loaded rifles ready, patrolled the aea off the beach here all day in an effort to destroy sharks that may be in the waters oft Spring Lake. This plan was adopted by the local authorities pending the j completion of a more permanent me thod to prevent the killing of other bathers in the manner Charles Bruder was killed yesterday, _____ J HARRISBURG I TELEGRAPH The "Rising Star" of —Rubber % GOODRICH TRADE-MARK THE Age of Rubber" is in sight!
