The Encnmnment

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug.-It is es-
timated by careful officials at encamp-
ment headquarters that there will be
fully 40, 600 genuine old veterans in at
tendance at the encampment and there
will be at least seven private citizens
or sight seers for every old soldier that
will be here. This Wonld bring a crowd
of 2S0, 900 visitors. But several ObserV-
ing calculators think the average to
each of the 40, 600 soldiers will be about
five out SiderS in which event there
would be a crowd of 200, 900 people to
be fed and furnished quarters. These
estimates are based on numerous aver
ages taken by officers from requests
for quarters daily received from old
soldiers for themselves and families OF
immediate friends and from people not
connected with the order. A general
order issued by Commander-in-Chie
Warner. under date of August 18th,
states that the business session of the
encampment will convene at the West
Side Turner hall, August 2Sth, at lC
| a. m.
The national council of administa-
ton will meet at the Plankinton House
August &c. The parade will take place
| Tuesday, August 2Tt.I, and Will be
| commanded by the communicative chief
in person. The line of march will not
exceed two and one-half miles in
length.

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Aug. I5.-De-
tective Thacher of the Wells Fargo &

ted Press reporter that while at San
Quentin prison yesterday he secured a
full confession from Jack Gorton, con-
yicted at Auburn last week and SEN
fenced to ten years imprisonment
for robbing the express train at Clipper
Gap last Christmas. In this confess
sion Gorton implicated his brother in
the robbery. He also admitted that
they robbed the stage in sonora county
for which crime he was tried and ac-
quilted. Anew weeks ago, after the
robbery of the express train, the Cor
tons came TO Sacramento, after which
they went east, Jack being captured
at Kansas City.

Soden's grove was the scene of a
very exciting game of ball yesterday
afternoon. The contesting mines were
the newspaper reporters, typos and
others of the journalistic profession,
and the bus and hack drivers of the
city. Only five innings were played,
but they were sufficient to convince
the most sanguine that no one on the
field would ever immortalize his name
as base ballist. The score by innings
would not look as handsome in cold
print as some other things so we re-
frain from publishing it. When the
game was called after the first half OF
the fifth inning the score stood ID to IL
in favor of the journalists. Ali returned
to town and took a dutch treat, u
tired, but happy in the thought that
something had been accomplished out
of the usual line of happenings.

senator AnEa'ls Explains that Letter
The senator has at last come forth
with an explanation of that trouble
some letter to Coney. 1t appears in
yesterdays issue of the State journal
and we copy it below for the benefit of
our readers, who are doubtless anxious
to know what the senator has to say
about that ''impudent and shameless
forgery" The explanation is all we'll
enough, but the publication of the ORR
ginal letter would have been far more
satisfactory. The senator's explana-
tion takes in some portions of the For
UNI article, on which he aims to throw
little light of somewhat doubtful
and uncertain character. He says:
1.-The public alton imputed to lie was
a shameless and impudent forgery. 1t
was garbled and mutilated recollec-
ton. distorted and seasoned by malic
ious omissions and interpretations, of a
private letter. Coney wrote me that

ing that one of my children had been
