ACTIVITY AND INTEREST —__+—_—_ Everything is in readiness so far as ‘Washington is concerned for the entertain- ment of the National Educational Associa- tion convention. The excellent plans for the reception and accommodation of the thousands of visitors are in operation, and are working admirably, the official pro- grams are ready for distribution, and the badges, which will indicate that their wear- ers are members of the great body that represents so much of the intellect and cu!- ture of the country have arrived. About the only vexatious thing in connection with the convention has occurred in connection with these badges. ~The contract for them was awarded to Horstmann & Co. of Phila- delphia, and when they arrived here the ribbons were found not up to the quality submitted in the samples accompanying the bids. A representative of the contract- ors has been requested to come to Wash- ington today and explain this deficiency, and probably the matter will be adjusted satisfactorily. Stbcommittees of the reception commit- tee were on hand at both railroad stations all day today, but up to 2:30 o'clock were not kept very busy, as the convention ar- mrch.oald Gree>leea. rivals were not numerous. All the trains coming in tomorrow, when the big crowds will come, will be met several miles out- side of Washington by reception committee entatives, the passengers polled and ho are bound for the convention sup- with information to simplify their procedure when the city is reached. The Chicago Teachers’ F om distinct teachers, arrived to over the Pennsylvania road joyable trip frcm the wi rs cluded stops at Johnstown and Springs. The party is quartered Baltic on Farragut Square. Teachers Want Recognition. One of the energetic women among the arrivals said the federation had come to the convention with a purpose. “This excursion,” she remarked, “which was open to all grade teachers of outlying towns and states, is the outcome of a great deal of irdeperdent thought upon the part of many of the most advanced women in the profession resident in Chicago. The national association has so long assumed an exclusive attitude thet the grade teach- ers everywhere have felt.it to be of but lit- tle value to them, although they are ex- pected to pay $2 per volume for the report of the convention each year. The grades are beginning to realize that they have strength and an importance of their own, and to resent the fact that no educator has ever been permitted a place upon the na- tional programs whose position was not a principalship or better. Active Participation. “The federation,” she continued, “feels that if the national association is to be of any practical benefit to them or to the rank and file of the profession they must ke allowed some active, if small, participa- tion in its affairs. Failing this, they have erganized upon their ewn account and are 1.0w in a fiourishing condition. The fedcra- tion invited all grade teachers frora outly- ing points to take advantage of its rates end excursion accommodations, und to fa- cilitate matters, opened headquarters in the Grend Pacific Hotel. While in Washington the organization Will discuss the fecsibility of extending to a state and national grade teachers’ fed- eration, great need for which is stringently telt. Those having the matter in hand are cynfideat that a large national federation of grades will be the ultimate outcome, and hopes are expressed that its practica- Lility will be seen at the opportune moment in’ Washington.” At Headquarters, The national headquarters in the Arling- ton Hotel banquet hall have been opene ard today many visitors called on the se retary, Dr. Irwin Shephard, who returned shington last night expressing much satisfaction at the prospects. Other well- known educators who visited headquarters were James H. Baker, president of the University of Colorado; Superintendent F. Louis Soldam of the public schools of St. Leuis; Prof. Frank A. Fitzpatrick of Bos- ten, and Mr. I. C. McNeill, treasurer of the association. All of the’ visitors were sure the convention would be the most suc- ssful i istory of the association. en the we. are smiling on us with good pro Other Matters of Interest.

The transportation of such a large num- ber of persons required, of course, special arrangements with the various railroad companies of the country, and these were effected in a most satisfactory manner by the committee on transportation, consisting of Archibald Greenlees, chairman, and the following well-known gentlemen: 8. Bb. Hege, Albert M. Read, Colin Studds, L. 8. Brown, Levi Woodbury, John Callahan, cone M. Bond, E. G. Lockwood and A. 8. en. This committee secured reduced rates of transportation from all points to Washing- ton and arranged for a plan by which the time ‘of the excursion tickets can be ex- ter by those who desire to remain longer in Washington It also secured free transportation to nuints outside of Wash- ington for committeemen who will go out to such places to meet the various state dele- gations and come with -hem to Washing- ton.

The Maine Avenged. As the flames shot higher and higher above the decks of the magnificent vessels that had composed Admiral Cervera's fleet many of thuse who witnessed the scene felt it had a strong connection with the destruction of the American battle ship Maine in Havana harbor five months ago. Lieutenant Cemmander Wainwright, the commander of the Gloucester, was execu- tive officer of the Maine at the time of the disaster, and, although he remained in Havana harbor two months efter the ex- plosion, he lived on board the dispatch boat Fern and steadfastly refused to set his foot within the city until, to use his own words, the time should come when he ‘ould go ashcre at the head of a landing Today it was his ship that sank two Spanish torp-do boat destroyers and after- ward received the Spanish admiral aboard as & prisoner of war. Fvom his resition on the bridge of the Gloucester Lieutenant Commander Wain- wright watched the flames and smoke as they enveloped the decks of the three Breatest warships of the Spanish navy, which “were soon to be reduced to nothing but shattered masts and twisted smoke- stacks, protruding above the water, similar to that other picture in Havana harbor. It was net strange, therefore, that he re- marked to his brother officers beside him: “The Maine is avenged.” Just then the Pluton and the Furor sank. The Glouc>ster’s boat picked up as many of the survivors as she could find on the shore. No Resistance. The prisoners of war included the cap- tains of both beats. None offered any re- sistance, and were glad to go to the Glou- cester, as they feared an attack from the Cubans. A number of the survivors, including offi- cers of the Furor, who, it was reported, had their legs shot off, were scattered along the coast for some distance and could not be found. Thre? officers and six men of the Pluton escaped from the shore in one of their own boats and pulled to the Assocl- ated Press dispatch boat Wanda, where they remained until their captain, who was heid a prison2r on the Gloucester, ordered them to join him on the latter vessel. The most remarkable feature of the com- bat was the fact that, notwithstanding the utter destruction of the Spanish fleet and th2 hard fight those ships made even after they were on fire, the American vessels should escape without injury. The only Fessible explanation of this is the poor marksmanship of the Spanish gunners, which has been so well d2monstrated in every other conflict of the war. ‘The Newark, Commodore Watson's flag- ship, did not participate in the great cap- ture, as she was coaling at Guantanamo.

Shafter's line with Col. Dorst. They asked if non- combatants could occupy the tuwn of Caney and railroad points, and asked until 10 o'clock Tuesday before the city is fired on. They claimed that there were between 15,- 000 and 20,000 people, many of them oli, who would leave. Th2y asked if Gen. Shafter couid supply them with food, which he could not do for want of transportation to Caney, which is fifteen miles from his land- ing. Gen, Shafter raplied as follows: “The commanding general, Spanish forces, Santiago de Cuba, July 3, 1898. “Sir: In consideration of the request of the consuls and officers in your city for de- lay in carrying out my intention to fire on the city, and in the interest of th2 poor women and children who will suffer very greatly by their hasty and enforced de- parture from the city, I have the honor to announce that I will delay such action svie- ly in their interest until noon of the 5th, providing during the interval your forces make no demonstration whatever upon those of my own.

Reinforcements are to be hurried to Gen. Shafter as rapidly as steamships can car- ry them, notwithstanding the fact that additional troops are not now so badly needed, as was indicated by the develop- ments of Friday and Saturday. Yesterday afternoon Secretary Alger and Gen. Miles had a conference with the Pres- ident at the White House concerning the serding of reinforcements to Shafter, and it was determined to send the troops at once. Orders were issued for the 8th Ohio Infantry, Col. Charies V. Hard, the regi- ment known as the “President's Own,” be- cause it comes from the immediate vicinity of President McKinley’s home city of Can- ton, to proceed to New York and embark on the St. Paul for Santiago.

The 8th Ohio will leave Camp Alger this afternoon for New York, and will board the steamer immediately upon arri- val there. Tne regimeat will be accom- panied by the brigade commander, Gen. Garretson. - In addition to the troops at Camp Alger, which are to be sent to Santiago, the bri- gades of Gen. Ernst and Gen. Hains, now at Chickamauga, will be sent within a few lays. Gen.
