Bryan, asking his | advice as to offering his services as a | private soldier. Colonel Boler is an staked out on picket valley opposite the 500 superb horses lines in the level railway station. The men, meanwhile, had not been idle.

Great lumbering army wago! with their bowed hoops a cars, piled high with army lia, to be almost immediately up by teams of sturdy Government mules and wheeled off toward the site selected for the cavalry camping grounds, on Lexington road, almost in the center of the park. The cavalry is ready to move at a moment’s notice, and so far as rations and forage are concerned would not be at all hampered by sudden marching | orders, for they brought with them supplies and rations for from thirty to thirty-five days. The cavalry encampment as inaugur- ated on Thursday is located about a mile and a half from the infantry b:- The Third Cavalry from Jet- ferson Barracks were the first .of al the troops t> arrive at Chattanooga after marching orders had been given out, with the single exception of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, which was the field several before the ge: eral order was issued. The Third was ordered to march from Chattanooga to the camp site selected for them by Major Dillenbeck, and ar- rived at the park about noon Thurs- day. The command numbered about 500 men, who, together with their bag- gage and supply trains, made a for- | midable looking caravan. Throngs of carriages followed this detachment plished without the istance of thirty or forty thc and of them, according to their opinion. The scenes at Chat- tanooga differed lit- tle from that witn. every town through which troor ve passed, but at the M rv Park there was enougn that S ual to interest half the population of the city from dawn un- til dark.

A general view of the encampment of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, the first troop to arrive, gives a correct idea of the varicus and numerous camps throughout the park. Colonel A.

That they are a very different sort of colored man from the worthle lazy throng that exists in this part ¢f the South was made mani- fest immediately upan thelr arrival here, an notwithstanding. the fact that a negro has no standing whatever in this community, they have com- manded the respect and admiration of every one by their soldierly bearing. Their village of tents is neat to a de- gree. There is absolutely no refuse in its streets, none in its fragile houses. The cook tents and company messes are sweet and savory, and it is an ad- mitted fact that the colored troops live far Dbetter than the whites, although the rations issued for them are the same. They are the best cooks and de- light in providing appetizing dishes, which, even if made from ordinary ma- terials, are greatly relished. The arrival of the cavalry at the park on Thursday was the event of the campaign thus far in Chickamauga. The Sixth, comprising four troops from Fort Myer, arrived Wednesday even- ing at Chattanooga and remained in the cars until morning. Then the trains were run out to the park and unloaded there. There is a little de- pot at the beginning of the main park drive, built to accommodate passen- gers who go out by train, but wholly inadequate for the handling of the vast bodies of troops that are expected there within the month. The horses of the cavalry were first unloaded. Gang- ways of rough planks had been con- structed and placed at the doors of the stockears, as far as the length of the platform would permit. But four cars could be handled at a time.. The horses, seemingly drilled for the work, made no offer to bolt from the cars ‘Wwhen the doors were opened, but await- ed orders like soldiers, and came down the gangways with a precision and care that was remarked by all who saw them. ait of Corporal Dan- | { from the city and hack drivers reaped In half an hour there were | W. quartet will be among the speciaiiles, a harves years. hen the troops from Fort Riley, Fort Wingate and Fort Logan arrived, completing the Second Cavalry, the scenes were repeated at the park, where their trains were unloaded. One of the troops from Fort Wingate, E, of the Second Cavalry, is the crack troop of the United States army in the matter of rifle shooting, having won the great Nevada trophy in last season’s com- petitive shoot. The troop commander, Captain Pearson, who has been de- tailed on instruction duty in the East for some time. was the only member of his troop, officers or men. who did not participate in the shoot. First Lieu- tenant Willie Bean was in command and Lieutenants William Kelly Jr. and M. A. Hanna are also attached to this troop. The honor which attaches to this trophy is by no means insignifi- cant, for it is the highest mark of ap- proval that can be placed upon a com- pany or troop for marksmanship. The headquarters of Major-General Brooke are besieged by visitors and newspaper representatives almost in- cessantly, for news, and now that it {s unofficially stated that the mobilization of 80,000 volunteers will occur at Chick- amauga Park, as soon as they are called out, Chattanooga is awakening to a real sense of her importance and is trying in every possible way to put on the manners of a big town. Whexn the camp is abandoned at Chicka~ mauga, however, and the soldiers have all departed the relapse into her for. mer condition of peaceful rest will be as complete as it will be instantaneous. W. J. ROUSE. STOCK TRAIN WRECKED * BY A MISPLACED SWITCH. Five Cars Laden With Stozk Demol- ished on the North Pacific at Cloverdale. CLOVERDALE. April 2.—A special freight train on the San Francisco and North Pacific Railway was wrecked here at 4 a. m., owing to a misnlaced switch. The wrecked train consisted of forty cars of sheep and ten cars of horses, bound for Long Valley, Mena County, from Southern California. The train crew es- caped serious injury. Five and the engine were badly damaged. but not much of the stock was killed. The regu- lar morning passenger, mail and express train, leaving Ukiah at 5:15 a. m., was delayed here five hours. A temporary track was constructed and regular traffic resumed this afternoon. e et Death at Castroville.

The mine. which is one of the largest of the kind in the world, is situated in | the heart of the mountains, near the little village of North Bloomfield, and fifteen miles from Nevada City. |road to the mine pitches up and down the precipitous sides of the mountains in a manner calculated to make the | hair of a novice stand on end. Occasionally the road skirts along the | edge of a precipice or whisks around the shoulder of a great cliff, seemingly for the sole purpose of giving the stage drivers an opportunity to show how easy it is to knock pebbles into the seemingly bottomless abyss with the rear wheel of the coach. If to all this is added the fact that almost every mile of the road has its history of a stage robbery or murder, a fair understanding can be had of the effect of the fifteen-mile drive on the ninds of a majority of the native sons. In this connection there is a story going the rounds to-night that has for a central figure Mark Devine, who, when at home, is the valued and valu- able assistant of Chief Wharfinger Root on the San Francisco water front. It seems, so the story goes, that Devine is a trifle nervous and did not wholly approve of the spectacular efforts of the driver of the conveyance in which | he and a party of friends were riding. Being of a retiring disposition he said nothing, but at the first convenient op- portunity he expressed a desire to walk | over a particularly dangerous piece of road. In order, as he said, to lighten the load and save the horses. Devine trudged alorg behind the tcam for per- haps a hundred -ards or so, when he was suddenly confronted by the follow- ing inscription, painted in bold letters on the face of a huge boulder that jutted out from thc mountain side, just above th: road: * HHEFEEEREEXR Sacred to the Memory of §.

Then ensued what is said t> have been one of .he prettiest races ever witnessed in Nevada County. Down the mountain side went the coach at a break-neck gallop, and after it raced Devine, with his hat in his hand and his heart in his mouth. ‘When he finally caught up he took his seat in the coach, and during the balance of the journey said never a word when the driver sought to make new wheel marks along the outer edge of the bit of a shelf that does cuty for a road. It is only fai to Devine to say that he brands the story as an inven- tion emanating from his fun-loving companions. Arriving at the mine the Natives were escorted to the workings and in- itiated into the mysteries of sluices, monitors, flumes, pipe lines, impound- ing dams, pay dirt, bedrock and a thou- sand and one things that are a sealed book to_the ordinary mortal, who gains an occasional minted coin by the sweat | of his brow at an, office desk. The ar- rival of the visitors, who numbered | several hundred, was signalized by the | firing of twenty heavy charges of giant powder. Two hours later, when all of | the sight-seers had been herded in a | place of safety on a high bluff over- | looking the workings, 200 blasts were set off in the bottom cf the huge pit. After the inspection of the mine had been completed the visitors were con- ducted to a shady grove on the moun- tain side, above North Bloomfield, where they were treated to a typical miners’ dinner, served on long tables in the open air. The repast consisted of stewed chicken, meats and vege- tables, together with unlimited quan- tities of all kinds of drinkables. After the repast the visitors bade good-by to their entertainers and started on the return trip, reaching this city late in the afternoon. The day’s enjoyment was somewhat marred by a distressing accident, caused by the incompetence of a driver. and which resulted in bodily injury to three mem- bers of the junketing expedition.

Their partv of five men lost com- plete outfits under the avalanche and expect never to see them again, de- claring that the tremendous weight ‘crushed and destroyed their food sup- plies. Vandrey says that without doubt fif- teen or twenty more bodies will be dis- covered in the avalanche's pathway when summer comes. According to his story no digging has been done for a distance of a hundred yards on ac- count of the extreme depth of the snow, which is piled over forty feet high. In any community where organized gov- ernment exists this snow would be re- moved, vast as the work might be, and the bodies taken out. In Alaska such a course is impossible, volunteer shov- elers having tired of digging and re- turned to their labors. Vandrey talked with several men who know that their partners were killed, though their bodies have not been found. . Unfortunately Vandrey took no ac- count of the missing men's names. He could not continue his ‘ourney, believ- ing that so many victims remained un- discovered in their frozen shrouds, and, accordingly, returns to Wyoming for good.

The Democratic leader said he was fearful this volunteering might be looked upon as the act of a demagogue, and hence he asked Colonel Boler's judgment on that point. The colonel says that Mr. Bryan had before written™ him ex- pressing his disapproval of the “un- seemly scramble” for military office ex- hibited from every quarter. Mr. Bryan left Lincoln this afternoon for Rock Island, Ill., where he will de- liver an address to-morrow at the ded- ication of a building erected by Mod- ern Woodmen, but before his depart- ure he said he was willing to serve his country in any capacity, no matter how humble. . “I can only say,” replied Mr. Bryan to a question regarding his probable | enlistment as a private soldier, “that I have not the military education nor the experience*necessary to qualify as an officer,and thereforelam willing to enter the ranks. At such a time as this every man who can get away ought to enlist. T do not think I would make a bad soldier. Iam athletic and strong and am sure I would be amenable to discipline.

SEATTLE, April 26.—On board the Ja- panese liner Yamaguchi Maru, which is now in port, are forty-six ignorant Chi- nese, caged under the watchful eye of a special United States customs officer. The Chinese thought they were going to the Trans-Mississippl Exposition at Omaha. They were given to understand that after spending a few months there, they could remain on American soll, and for that reason they crossed the Pacific. A mes- sage was sent from Seattle to the man- ager of the Omaha Exgoal(lon. notifying him of the arrival of the celestials. The answer that came to-day was to the effect that no more Chinese were wanted.

Passengers who land- ed here say that at midnight on Saturday, when about 1700 miles west of Queenstown, the Majestic passed a cruiser and three tor- pedo bound west, and it is pre- sumed that they were Spanish vessels. These reports seem to tally with other advices that the Spanish battle - ship Pelayo, which safled ostensibly for St. Vincent, was really dispatched with torpedo - boats for the American coast. fegegegagcgagegeg=Fogegogegagopogagag-Fagaged o (=g=3cg=gcg=FeFaF-R=R:FeF:FoFa =1 NEW YORK, April 36.—A Washing- ton special to the Herald says: Au-| thoritative information has reached | here that Spain, anticipating the issu- | ance of a neutrality proclamation by | the battleship thagena. The vessel was towed from Toulon yes- | terday and it is understood that every effort will be made by the Spaniards to put her into condition for service as | promptly as possible. | There is considerable speculation in naval circles as to the whereabouts of | | the battlesl.ip Pelayo and the armored | cruiser Carlos V. The Pelayo left Ca- diz on £»-ril 17, nine ua~s ago, ostensi- bly for Cape Verde Islands and the| Carlos V sailed from Ferrol on April | 20, six days ago, her destinat on being | officially announced as Cadiz. ‘ Officials say that if the Pelayo were | bound for Cape Verde Islands she | should have reached her destination | several days ago. It is admitted to be | possible that the two ships may have | met and are now on a cruise against | American ship) ing. I The Columbia and Minneapolls, which are swifter than either of the Spanish vessels, are now at sea looking for any of the enemy’s warships or auxiliary cruisers, and should a superior force be sighted they will at once dash for the nearest port, and the flying squadron will be sent to give battle to the enemy. No official advices have yet been re- ceived of the departure of the Spanish | fleet from St. Vincent. Official infor- mation was received some days ago that Spain's second torpedo fleet was about to sail from Cadiz, but the of- ficials are unable to say whither it has gone. The naval plan of campaign against Cuba contemplates a ruse de guerre when the proper time arrives for the seizure of the port desired as a base of operations against Havana. While several men-of-war will make a demonstration against Havana or an- other port, a strong fleet of warslps will be engaged in shelling the point picked out as the proper base, and a force of 2000 marines and bluejackets will be landed under their fire. It is expected that the insurgents will co-operate with the navy, and it is not believed in naval circles that much trouble will be experienced in the cap- ture of the port. ‘While the navy has practically made all necessary preparations, the army is disposed to wait until fall before com- mencing active operations. It is ad- mitted in all circles that it is neces- sary to secure a base through which supplies can be sent to the insurgents, and once it has been occupied by American marines it will be necessary to send an army of 15,000, as stated in the Herald, to hold it against any force which General Blanco may send against it. . So far as any combined operations on the part of the army and navy are con- cerned, however, nothing has yet been It is the expectation of the authorities that the Cubans will drive the Spanish troops into Havana and other points and will be able to take such ports as are not strongly gar- risoned. According to advices received here, General Blanco has already begun the abandonment of the trocha and is col- lecting his troops in Havana, where he will await the arrival of relief expected to be brought by the Spanish fleet. Naval authorities are extremely anxious that the army shall at once begin offensivé operations by sending a formidable force to Cuba, and then, with the aid of the insurgents, making | an attack on Havan~ while the navy | co-operates by attacking the city from the sea. President McKinley, Secretary Al- ger, Major-General Miles, Adjutant- General Corbin and Brigadier-General Shafter, who has been selected for the command of 15,000 troops to be landed in Cuba, will hold a conference to-mor- row. Final arrangements will then be perfected for the conduct of the pro- posed plan. As at present determined upon, it is understood that the military will be transported to the Cuban base in ves- sels convoyed b men-of-war and will aid the marines in fortifying it. Once this has been accomplished it will be an ieasy matter to ship into the in- terior an ample quantity of supplies of all kinds for the use of the Cuban in- sureents. When this work has been completed it is highly probable, as the Herald forecasted this morning, that the arm- ron will be relieved from blockading duty and will join the armored ships of Commodore Schley’s fleet. The com- bined force will then be ready to give battle to the Spanish fleet, which will by that time, it is expected, have been | for some days out from Cape Verde Islands. | _While no effective blockade of Porto Rico has yet begun, I have it on'relia- ble authority that American men-of- war have been cruising in that neigh- borhood for several days.

It is conc by na 1 strategists that San Juan will be extremely important as a bs f operations for Spanish troops. In order that the garrison might hold out as long ass possible supplies of all kinds were shipped in and it is pre- pared to withstand a long slege. ) In some circles it is re; ded as prob- able that the action of this Government in permitting Porto Rico to remain un- attacked is due to its desire to draw the Spanish fleet from Cape Verde to San Juan and when it reaches that port to send the armored ships of the American squadron to give it bat- tle. Spanish authorities appreciate as | well as do those of the United States | that so far as this country is concerned the quicker a decisive battle is fought the better, and in some circles it is be- lieved that Spain will scatter her fleet as much as possible, and will conduct guerrilla warfare against this country. i FOREST FIRE RAGING.
