Thirty Three Regiments OF Regulars
Ordered South.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Decided-
ly the most warlike step taken by the
war department in preparing for the
possibility of an encounter with Spain
was inaugurated when orders were is
sued for the concentration at four
points in the South Of six regiments
of cavalry, twenty-five. regiments Of
infantry and the light batteries of five
regiments of artillery: at New Or
leans eight regiments of infantry, at
Tampa seven regiments of infantry
and at Mobile seven regiments of in
fantry. Since the Civil War no such
proportion of the army has been mo-
bilized and the movement itself is the
best evidence of the gravity Of the
situation as looked upon by the Presi-
dent and his advisors.
The determination to rendezvous the
troops in the South where they can be
acclimated to the conditions Of a more
tropical climate has been under con-
sideration of the President and his
cabinet for some time. 1t was not
until to-day, however, that the Presi-
dent in view of the enormous expense
which will be cntailed, felt justified in
taking this step. When Secretary
Alger returned from the cabinet
meeting he at once called into confer
cncc General Miles and Adjutant
General Corbin and acquainted them
with the result of the cabinets delib-
eratiors. There were hurried consul
tations in which the quartcrmaster.
who has charge Of the transportation
of the troops, the commissary general.
who looks after their subsistence, and
representatives in Washington of the
various railroads running South. par
ticipated.
The heavy batteries of artillery in
the five regiments will remain at their
present posts. The two new regi
mcnts of artillery recently authorized
by Congress have not been recruited
to their full strength aud in addition
arc not well equipped with horses and
other necessary requisites and there
fore arc not included IN tOday or
ders. The department has so distrib
uted the - regiments of infantry at
such convenient places on the gulf
that ;hey will be accessible for trans
poltation to Cuba. Proposals have
been invited from steamship eompa-
nes for chartcring vessels to the gov
crnmcnt for this work
Instructions to the commanding Of
ficcrs of the regiments ordered to move
were sent out late to-day with dircc-
tivns to be put into effect as soon as
possible. 1t is the confident cxprc-
tation of the officials that the move
mcnts in some places will bcyn to
morrow. The railroad facilities, the
officials say, are more than ample to
meet the demands Of the occasion and
no trouble will be experienced in mo-
bilizing this large body of men at the
places designated within reasonably
short space of time.

OvERHOLzER's JOKE.



Tried 70 Catch the soAe,or tn a rrap ~
az 4ppOinevstpL
A very pretty row came near being
stirred up in the Republican den by
Henry Overhoizer, Of Oklahoma City
who shaves warrants and cracks jokes
MIR. Overholzer, esides being one OF
the wealthiest men in Oklahoma coun
ty, for which he is a commissioner, is
bitter enemy OF Gov Barnes okla
homa county did not respond quickly
to the request OF the Oklahoma com.
mission for display st the Omaha ex.
position. President j. c. Post was
anxious u see oklahoma county well
represented, and wrote TO Mr. over
holzer as one Of the most progressive
citizens, asking him to suggest the
name OF some competent citizen who
would arrange for display.
Mr.. Overholzer was seized with a
brilliant idea. la Oklahoma City Is an
inofTensive but unfortunate man named
Burton, who Is as visionary as Don
Quixote himself. lie once ran in okla
homa county for vice president of the
United States. and was also a candi-
date for chief justice OF oklahoma.
When Judge John II. Burford was ap
pointed Burton insisted that President
Mckinley had made a mistake and
written "ford" for ton" Mr.. Over
holzer sent this letter, dated Stroud,
Ok, June 6, TO President Post;
Your favor of May 81 duly received
after being forwarded to me at this
point. Regarding the appointment
from Oklahoma county ! would present
the name OF John Burton. lie has been
a resident OF our )unty since the open
ing OF the territory, has the time TO
devote to such matters, and would, j
believe, be the right man for the
place
President Post did not know burton,
but accepted the letter In good faith
and wrote TO Gov. Barnes TO appoint
him a member Of the Oklahoma com
mission Gov. Barnes was in Washing
ton, and the appointment was made by
Secretary Jenkins as acting governor,
Gov. Barnes escaping personally from
the trap that was laid for him. Presi-
dent Post wrote to Burton that he
would be appointed. Burton became
extraordinarily enthusiastic and pa
raded the st eets with the letter Per
sons ia Oklahoma ity who knew moth
ing OF Mr. Ogerholzer's facetiousness
became very indignant at what they
believed was an unpardonable insult
from Gov. Barnes TO the people OF
Oklahoma county. Samuel Murphy
wrote To President Post telling him
that a great blunder had been made.
President Post tried TO intercept Bur
toms commission, but failed When
Gov. Barnes reached home he promptly
revoked Burton's appointment.
1t was denied at oklahoma City that
Mr.. OverholZer recommended burton,
but his letter was produced in his pres
ence and he acknowledged its author
ship, but offer, no excuse for his con
duct. The affair is greatly regretted
by those persons who wish to see Okla
homa's magnificent resources fully
shown at Omaha, and deplore drag
ging politics into the movement.
w. w. Asher, OF oklahoma City, has
been chosen TO collect an exhibit for
Oklahoma county.
