Chattanooga, Tenn. Monday--The
first of the big army of volunteers to
he moblized at Chickamauga are on
the field tonight. The First Ohio Vol
uuteer cavalry, six hundred men, un-
der command of Lieutenant Colonel
Day, arrived this morning and imme-
diatelv went to the Park. The troopers
did not bring horses, but will be sup
piled by the government here.
The Ohioans are fine looking body
of young men, all of strong physique,
and what some OF them lack in milf
tary training is made up in power OF
endurance and enthusiasm for the
work before them.

Port au Prince. Hayti--Unitcd States
Minister Powell is much impressed
with the idea that the Island of Con
aivcs. in the Gulf of I.oegane, or Con
aivos, the largest dependency of Hay
ii, would afford the naval station which
the United States has so long desired
to possess in these waters
The island was granted under very
liberal conditions some years ago to
three Haytians -Nord Alexis, b. Ri
Were and Or. Aubrey. Only NJ. Alexis
is now living, and the concession re-
mains uneXploited.
The Island of Gonaives is almost in
calculably rich in mahogany 1t is
mainly composed of picturesque up
mousiy in coffee, if properly cultivated.
The highest mountain peak rises about
three thousand feet above the sea.
In the Interior are numerous
springs, while the dark soil is evenly
mostened throughout the year, and
has fertility that is proverSial even
in Hayti.
The conCessionaires or their heirs
are very desirous of selling their
rights. j. c. Busselman, of Port au
Prince, represents them and is ready
TO enter into any feasible arrangement
with the United States government.
Minister Powell | understand. has al
ready brought the matter to the atten-
ton of the State Department.

at last, making an helric effort to have the
Spanish tongue recognized as the court

The shell struck home on the gnarled
front OF Castle Moro, the ancient lime
stone fortress which guards San Juan as its
namesake stands watch and ward over
Havana.
The Indiana opened from its forward
turret with a thirteen-inch proiectile, and
the effect of the shot was like that of the
famous first elfor. of great modern gun
at Alexandria.
The walls of Moro seemed to so into
vapor where the immense proiectiles struck.
Ruined masonry and manged corpses told
of the inadequacy Of the scarps and bas-
tions of the older days to withstand the as
saults of modern armaments, The castle

1t was his daughter Paulma, the belle OF
San Juan. As the shells shrieked and
burst, throwing the city into confusion,
she was urged to 90, but she elected to stay
with her father.
/ The bombarlment of the forts lasted
three hours. The Spanish reply was ir-
regular and uusustained, though they sue
ceeded in placing several shots among the
| American vessels.
a report ftom Admiral Sampson states
that one man was killed on the New York
and seven slightly wounded in the feet.

New London, Conn. The test of the
new l5-inch gun. recently mounted at Fort
Trumbull; caused the city to qu'sle, and
many people, who knew nothing OF the
trial, believed a hostile war vessel had
entered Long Island Sound. The exact
distance which the ball travelled OH a
straight line was $500 yards, according to
the chart at the fort The test of the gun
was considered very satisfactory, and it
will be used mainly in protecting the mines
planted at the harbor's mouth.
