WARMEST TIME OF THE MIMIC WARFARE . Program of Today at Fort Riley In- cludes Grand Review in Which All Organizations Present Wil Take Part, FORT RILEY, Kan.,, Oct. 33.—There was & pitohed battle today seven miles north- east of the maneuver camp, and it came about as close to the real thing as is pos- sible with blank cartridges. The Browns, under General Barry, re- ported a force advancing from the north, ‘The Blues, under General Bell, were a force ‘which, having been sent out on a recon- molssance, were attacked at once by the Browns, and the result was a ‘‘contact of g forces of all arms.' Barry's force, which marched out ing and passed a chilly bivouac I“t night, was forbldden by the conditions of the problem to march forward before 10:20 a. m. General Bell left his camp at 7: a. m., and by the time General Barry was privileged to start was close upon him and ready for operations. As soon as the Browns moved out Colonel Duncan, lead- ing the Bixth infantry, the advance of General Bell's force, charged home on their left flank, rolling it up and driving it back toward the center. Two troops of cavalry were quickly put out of action by Colonel Duncan, who then swung in close upon the rear of the Browns and captured their en- tire buggage train. 8o far the battle was all for the Blues, but General Barry's right came down on the Blues' left with effect. Tries to Capture General Pell. While his infintry poured in a heavy fire from a ridge, & squadron of the Tenth cav- alry under Captain C. P, Johnson moved up & ravine close to the left of General Bell's position, and then climbing a hill and looking over the crest, Captain John- son saw General Bell with his entire staff riding but & short distance away. General ors, for special Saturday great event, at...... ooks in our Barry, who was close up, at once ordered Captain Johnson to charge and capture General Bell and, if possible, the Twen- tieth fleld battery, which was just in front. Johmson ordered the charge and in an in- stant he and his colored troopers were over the summit and at the battery. The guns turned loose for & few shots that would have lald out many of Johnson's men, and then it was all over. On a dead run Cap- taln Johnson, with his troopers, was in among the guns and the battery was cap- tured. Without halting - after dashing through the battery, Captain Johnson tore on after General Bell, but he failed and lost his life for the day. Between him and the prizs he sought was a rank of men of the same color as his own, the Twenty- fifth infantry. Just as Johnson seemed to be swinging on his prize a line of dark faces rose in front and volley after volley was poured into him and his men. The Twenty-fifth then rushed forward to a counter charge, recapturing the battery and coming down on the far side of the crest they carried at the point of the bayonet the Nineteenth battery of General Barry's force that had just came up. The guns were wheeled like lightning on the Twenty-fifth, but the colored men with loul cheers and firing with wonderful rapidity charged along the hill and there was nothing that could stop them. The baitery was theirs and they held it. While this charge was taking place Colo- nel Lincoin's Fifty-fifth Towa, which is In all things highly praised by the military eritics, came forward on a ridge parallel to that along which the Twenty-fifth was charging and became hotly engaged with the battery that had been taken by the Twenty-fifth, For some reason there is grim earnest- ness in the fighting of the Iowa regiment that makes it an important factor, no mat- ter what the odds pitted ngainst it. They came plunging down the hill, crossed a narrow ravine and ascended the hill on the farther side, just in time to meet an attack that General Barry was sending in upon the Blue center. It was hot enough for anybody and the Towa boys were given all they could do. Part of the Twenty-ifth came out to aid them, but General Barry pushed his attack with wonderful determination. He had the preponderance of force and he made a viclous battle, \ Towa was soon overmatched, although Id Underoof ye No _money 1s saved and no time is spared in the production of Old Underoof tye.

General Barry was not to be denled, however, and his men came on steadily, pouring in & fearful file fire, that would have been woatully destructive of life in an actual fight. The fighting was at its hottest and the men in thelr eagerness were pressing closer when Colonel Wagner, the senfor umpire, sounded the recall and the battle closed, “It was a desperate fight,”" said Colonel Wagner, “and so sharp on both sides that only actual war could have told the vie- tory.” Tomorrow a grand review will be held, all troops at camp participating.

CAMP WILLIAM CAREY SANGER, Oct. 28.—(Speeinl.)—The militiamen here are lead- ing a most strenuous life, but are Jearning much of interest to the soldier. Tuesday morning the Third brigade, of which the Omaha companies are a part, marched to the Smoky river flats, some four miles away, when the brigade was thrown out in battle formation and no man of that bri- gade will ever forget the sight of seeing a brigade thrown out in battle array. First the scouts were sent forward, the line be- ing more than a mile in length, then when the scouts had advanced the proper dis- tance & bugle signal was given when the officer ran to the center, where General Barry explained what the object was in throwing out the scouts. After being in- structed the officers returned to thelr com- mands, when upon the second bugle blast, the squads were sent forward, halted and the officers again Instructed, and so on until the entry brigade, including the Texas regiment in the center, the Missouri boys on the right and the Nebraska boys on the left were thrown forward in battle forma. tion, each step being explained to the offi- cers. The boys then veturned to camp to be again marched to the flats in the after- noon, to be instructed in digging trenches. In marching to the flats a pontoon bridge, spanning the Republican river, was crossed, which the engineer corps had bullt. In each pontoon sat & number of soldiers of the engineer corps. In digging the trenches the men were supposed to be under fire and were first required to dig a trench for a man lying down. These trenches were six teet wide four inches deep at ome end and six feet at the other with & bank twelve inches high in front. Then a trench for & man kneeling, elghteen inches deep, was dug and then the men were marched home for mess and & dress parade. The officers were introduced to Major eGneral Bates in the evening and later attended a lecture on explosives. The weather is superb and the health of the men excellent, there not being a man in the Nebrrska regimental hospital. Wednesday morning the Nebraska boys were marched six miles over stony bluffs as “Blues” and valliantly aid battle against the “Browns.” The woods werc so rough that one of the Omaha boys remarked that Farnam street cobblestones would seem like. carpet to him in the future. Owing to the exhausted condition of the men the problems for the afterncon were not ex- ccuted. A great many of the men are bothered with biistered feet. The battle exercises are much more real- istic than any one 'would suppose, for the reason that the men are first marched sev- eral miles and then there is much double- timing in order to get Into position and ss & result many of the men either give out or are overcome. In the frst battle exer- shades and patterns, plain theso as shirts you :}‘ulr:r'ig'"p‘:;gsc-l 50 at d pleated bosoms, clse seven men from the Second battalion of the Nebraska regiment had to the trans- ported to the rear in the ambulances, several being carried past upon stretchers. The most important exercise being in the morning when the entire division will be engaged, taking all of the wagon trains. KEEP SUGAR FACTORY BUSY Norfolk Iustitution Turning Out 750 Bags of Sugar Bach Day. NORFOLK, Neb, Oct. 23,—(Special)— Grinding out granules of sweetness at the rate of 70 bags per day, tue rvorrolk sugar factory has already sliced up 6,600 tons of saccharine root and has put on the mar- ket 13,000 bags of its finished product dur- ing the first nineteen days of the campaign. It will eat up 400 tons of the beets from now on every day. The beets are testing up well with about 14 per cent of sugar in them this season.

The increased capacity of the institution by enlarging and installing new machinery. this season, has helped ma- terfally in the running. Not Guilty of Embesslement, HOLDREGE, Neb., Oct. 23.—(Spectal Tel- egram.)—After a preliminary examination lasting two days the case against W. A. Garrett and J. H. Johnson, who were charged with embeszlement, was dismissed by Justice G. H. Johnson. The case grew out of trouble In the Nebraska Mining company, which was formed a year ago last spring to develop a mine which Gar- rett and Johnson had purchased of Colo- rado parties. These men formed a com- pany and were former officers in it. Some of the stockholders became dissatisfied and had this action brought by an attorney.

OTHERS MUST SOON FOLLOW THEM Recelve Notice from Railroad Com- panies that Tickets Are Good for Only Ten Days from Date of Sale. * NEW YORK, Oct. 23.—At least 150 mem- bers of Dowie's “army” left today on & special train of five coaches over the West Shore road for Zion City, Ill, in charge of Deacons J. W. Crane, Wilhite, Lauder, Ely, Pettinger, Feterson, Kopp, Stevenson and Funger. According to Deacon Newcomb, the Zion- ists are bound for Zion because others wished to come to New York. “As many as leave will be replaced by new recruits,” sald the deacon. Many of the party were suffering from colds brought on by exposure in the work of house-to-house visitation and the many changes from the heated atmosphere of the garden to the piercing air. While his lleutenants were looking atter the excursionists at Weehawken, Dowle was left almost alone to conduct the early morning meeting service at the garden. During his address he said that he had recelved about.fifty letters during his stay here, all of which threatened him with murder or kidnaping. Some of them were signed “committee.” Ho sald he was not afraid. He announced that he expected 200 more of his followers to arrive here on Monday with a fresh supply of provisions. v Seventy-Five Thousand Houses, In talking of the visitation work done here by the “host”" he sald that 75,000 houses were visited yesterday. Betimating that each house contalned about eight persons, he sald that 600,000 persons had recelved the “divine message.” It was sald that the departing members of the “host” had returned to Zion City because so many of the heads of depart- ments had left their places vacant that the management of the city was suffering. Nothing was sald about a feeling of dls- couragement among those going away be- Ing responsible for them leaviug. New York members of the *host" recelved a severe shock today when they were in- formed by the railway companies that their tickets would have to be used during the early part of next week. It had been un- derstood, it is sald, that all the tickets were €00d for two weeks, but now it is sald that most of them will have to return several days sooner or lose their transportation. Break Into Freight C FREMONT, Neb, Oct. 25.—(Special)— Two men giving their names as White and Hensen were arrested last night for break- ing Into a frelght car. They were seen by the train men to break the seal and were captured in the car. Nothing was missing.
