Position of Col. Harries. There seems to be in this connection a ngular, not to say paradoxical, sentiment xistitg regarding the action of Colonel Harries. His wish first express2d, to retain the soldiers at Montauk for two or three weeks, ts undoubtedly his opinion now, but owing to the desire of his men and of their home fetks here to b> together as soon as possible, and the representations of Major James E. Bell and other members of the relief committee r2presenting the citizens’ committee at Montauk that Was bes ded to the prevaiiing sen- timent. There can b2 no doubt that Colonel Harries personally would be very glad if the Ss now in Washington, he man and would give any- thing to be with his wife and family.

Columbia Theater promises to be the cencentrating point of great throngs of people tonight, when the het proceeds from the performance of the excellent farce- comedy “That Man” will be generously devoted to the fund for the reception to the District regiment. The occasion offers an admirable chance to Washingtonians to enjoy an evening of a most pleasing char- acter and at the same time substantially certribute toward the cause that is so clese to the heart of every citizen. The members of Mr. A. M. Palmer’s company are as enthusiastic over the event tonight as the home people themselves, and intend meking the performance a memorab'e one. Messrs. Luckett & Dwyer, the enterprising managers of the Columbia, who, in con- nection with Mr. Palmer, kave displayed such generous interest, will have some geruine surprises in store for the big crowd that will undoubtedly fill the always to the commanding general of the 24 Army Corps for duty.

The Commissioners.as- sured Mr.- Hutchins of their intention to co-operate in evcry way with the citizens in order to make the home-coming of the regiment- a. success. The orders regarding the cars will be issued when necessary. / OChatrmanships Declined. Dr. Francis R. Lane, Dr. William Pope Young and Mr. I. W, Woodward, who were appointed by Major Sylvester chairmen, respectively, of the committees on program, printing and reception, have been compelled by important reasons to decline the posi- tions and other gentlemen will accordingly be appointed in their places.

One Wife Dead, the Other Suing for Divorce, One of his wives dead and the other suing for divorce is the situation that promiscs to leave Dennett H. Moseley fre to embark in a third matrimonial enter- prise, provided, of course, he is able to es- cape punishment from the law from which he is now said to be fleeing. Mrs. Maggie Moseley, who married Moseley in 1884, yes- terday filed suit for divor alleging that her husband was systematically cruel to her up to the time when she was deserted by him in December, 15 He was addict- ed to the liquor habit, she declares, and often cursea and beat her. Mrs. Moseley further alleges that Moscley married Mi Rva rickland of Columbus, Ga., and live r for some t'me in this city. Mr: asks that she be given the cus- child and that she be allowed to resume her maiden name of Maggie M. Mardu. Moseley recently enlisted in the 8d Vir- ginia Regiment, it is alleged, when he was in an Intoxicated condition. The man begged his alleged second wife to assist him in securing a release from the arm: Through ber influential friends she su eded, only to be informed that her wa: ward husband, for seme years previous to her marriage with him, had been the hus- band of another Mrs. Moseley, who is now suing for divorce. Broken-hearted, the second wife went to Columbia Hospital, where she recently died. Moseley absent: ed himself from the city and his present whereabouts are unknown. eee Stole a Satchel. Judge Kimball today sent William Smith, alias Oscar Brown, colored, to jail for sixty Gays for the larceny of a satchel and can- tents, valted at $20, from Frank Russell. The ‘accused was arrested by Detective Helan. _——— N WANTS HER SOLDIERS. Asks That They Be Treated Like the Naval Prisoners. Having erranged for the release and re- turn to Spain of the Spanish sailors cap- tured after the destruction of Cervera’ flcet, the Spanish government is now seek- ing to secure the return of the Spanish sol- diers who are still held captives in this ecuntry. Tiere are a few of these, about three dozen perhaps, ccnfined at Fort Me- Pherson, and our government is entirely willing to be rid of them. When the first offer was made to release the Spanish pris- oners upon parole the Spanish soldiers were ircluded with the sailcrs in the proposition. That was several weeks ago, and the of- fer was declined, the Spanish governmen declaring that the Spanish law prohibite: a soldier or sailor from accepting liberty under parole. Our government having finally considered to release the sailors upon the sole condition that the Spanish government woild transport them home, M. Thiebaut, acting in the interest of the Spanish government, has just made appli- cation to the State Department for similar treatment 'n the case of the Spanish sol- diers. The request is now under consider- ation, and will dcubtless be granted. SPA CITIZENS MAKE -'CHARGES | ‘THE STAR’S RELIEF FUND. Surplus to Be Devoted to Distriet Seldters and Their Families. | Six.

The corps headquarters force, division headquarters force and ambulance corps all left for Anniston. Tomorrow the headquar- ters of the 3d and the 24 Brigades.and the 44th New York go. No movements will be made on Sunday. The 3d Brigade head- quarters and the 3d Tenn2ssee will go Men- day. Owing to the fact that the majority of the regiments composing the 3d Corps will be mustered out, not more than a half dozen will be in the camp at Anniston. General Breckinridg> has determined to learn the full truth about the hospital situ- ation at Camp Thomas, and has begun a | vigorous investigation. A committee ap- pointed by him is now at work investigat- tng the 2d Division, -8d Corps, hospital, against which numerous charges have been made. Soldi2rs who have been in the hos- pital and others who have had an insight into its workings are being examined. Discussing the investigation, General Breckinridge said he intends to see that every point is thoroughly aired, and if it is proven that any person or persons are guilty of neglect and mismanagement the blame will. be placed upon their shoulders rand they will be punished accordingiy. Six prominent Chattanoogans, four of them leading physicians, have preferred charges against Major Hubbard, surgeon general of the 9th New York. They charge him with being responsible for the death of S:rgeant Frank, who was struck by a train a few days ago, and with conduct unbecom- ing an officer and a gentleman. It is claim- ed that Major Hubbard caused the removal of Sergeant Frank, when his life might have been saved by keeping him quiet, and that when other physicians expostulated with him he used language unbecoming a gentleman and an officer. A court-martial is demanded. —-+ — THE SATURDAY STAR. Partial List of the Contents of To- morrow’s Big Paper. The big twenty-four-page Star tomorrow will be brimming over with good things and will be complete and up to date in a'l the departments that go to make up a model modern newspaper. In the matter of fiction there will be the fifth installment of Louis Tracy's thor- oughly interesting serial, “The Lost Prov- inces,” and in addition a short story, com- plete in the one number, from the pen of Clinton Ross, one of the most popular writers of the day. “The Marked Cards” is a story of the “Far Westchester Set” and of how one young man gained admission to it. The story ts a pleasant love tale, with a novel denouement, tald:in)Mr. Ross’ best style. " In addition to this there will be a large number of spec al featutes, fashions, sports, travel, adventure, selected miscellany, let- ters from Europe, New York and the sum- mer resorts. Following are a few of thé articles in te morrow’s Star that especially deserve a ord in advance: : PRESIDENT OF CHIEE (Mlustrated). Through Frank Carpenter, The Star's traveling correspondent, his excellency transinits his views on'a number of Matters of interest and importance to his country and our own. NATURE RUNS RiOT (ilustrated). An article of particular timeliness and value, setting forth and giving an ex- cellent idea of the wonderful natural resources of the island of Porto Rico.

NEW YORK Gossip, What the people of Gotham are doing to amuse themselves dyging,the hot weath- after their return and for the relief of the families ef those who may be in need. lt is hardly necessary to say that the fund will be expended in these applaudabie directions with the utmost care and judg- ment, and that every dollar of it will be used to the very best material wdvantage possible. There is no better medium by which the public can show its substantial appreciation of the brave fellows who went to the front in behalf of the national cap- ital, and the greater the response the greater the benefits will be. The Star will receive and publicly acknowledge all con- tributions to this worthy cause. That cases of need will be ascertained and that they now exist is shown by the foliowing communication from Mrs. P. P. Rouse, 475 Maryland avenue southwest. Sev2ral of the ladies of Maryland avenue scuthwest, who have been assisting to feed the returning soldiers, find that they ar2 being so well cared for by the ladies of the Fension office that a portion of them have decided to turn their attention to the neady families of the District volunteers. My at- tention was called to the wife and baby of a volunteer that nesded assistance. I tn- vestigated the case and find they are needy. ‘The case was previously reported, but no aid has reached them. Ther2 are several other cases, and more will materialize through the ladies’ investigation. We ask the aid of all charitably inclined persors to contribute thing. provisions or money for the immediat2 relief of these families. While so many contributions are being mede to welcome the boys’ home-coming, Many of the families are suffering” in silence for the necessaries of lif2. A com- mittee of investigation and solicitation has been appointed, and the ladies intend to .ccntinue the good work as long as assist- ance is need2d. Donations will be recetved by Mrs. P. P. Rouse, or Mrs. E. E. ‘Comp- ton, 616 Maryland avenue southwest. Contributions Received.
