It IS on the Move southwark to Points Of
Concentration.
During the past several days the move
ment of the Regulars to Chickamauga,
New Orleans, Mobile and Tampa con-
tinued heavy. Thousands of soldiers were
on their way South to these points of
mobilization. Nearly every railway sta
ton was decorated along the routes of the
troops now in motion. At every hamlet
and village the flag was in evidence and
cheering crowds greeted the military trains.
Flowers were often heaped upon the Off
GERS.
AS soon as they reached their places of
destination they went into camp. Ad-
vance agents of the Department preceded
the troops and made all necessary arrange
ments for their comfort and convenience.
The troops carry 80 days rations and a
number of rounds OF ammunition.
Orders were issued from the War De-
partment to-day placing the light batteries
of artillery on strictly war footing. Tele-
grams were sent to the commanding Off
GERS of the batteries in all parts of the
country directing them TO increase each
battery from four to six guns and to in
crease the horses for each gun from four to
six.
Ii is believed that the organization of the
troops at Chickamauga will be into a corps.
The guardSmen in various States are
nearly ready to move, and the Governors of
the States have been notified of the num-
Der of troops to be supplied. Recruiting
stations for both Regulars and volunteers
will be opened in many cities speedily.
Assistant Secretary of the Navy TheO-
dore Roosevelt has resigned, and the Presi-
dent has decided to appoint him a Lieu
tenant Colonel OF Volunteers to serve in a
regiment of cowboys and mounted rifle
men, soon to be raised by him and DR..
Wood, the Presidents IS family physician, (,
who will be the Colonel.
The army sutler will not have chance
at Uncle Sans boys in this war. Suffers
are to be strictly prohibited in the approach
ing campaign of the army in Cuba and
while the troops are encamped in the
South. Secretary Alger has ordered that
arrangements be made to transport with
the army some articles and supplies not
included in the stock of rations and in the
manifestS of the Quartermaster's and Com
missary Departments, and to arrange for
sales so that no profit will be made by the
Government. Smoking tobacco, cigars and
chewing tobacco, toilet articles, and such
things to eat as would appeal to a man
limited to strict army diet will be part oi
the stock.

ANTI EOODLE CRUSADE.
Chicagoans Oppose extension of Street
Railway Franchises.

Na11WaJ ETdASAtSSS'
Another war is on in Chicago-a war
against the boodling city aldermen. One
of them introduced into the Council an
ordinance extending the franchises Of city
railways fifty years from 1913, the pres
ent date of expiration. The purpose is to
secure action by the aldermen favorable
to the street railroads before the repeal
of the Allen law. which is expected soon
after the Legislature meets. Mayor Har-
rison is fighting the proposed action Of the
Council with all his personal influence and
the power of patronage. Public meet
ings are held. and one of the rope manu-
facturers is engaged in making hangman
knots to be worn as buttonhole boquets
by honest citizens to suggest the possible
fate of boodlers if they sell out the tax
payers.

respective of party have assembled in
mass meetings in various wards Of the

FARMERS REAP RICH HARVEST
Dat and Corn Crops Bring $S3,OOO,-
900 More than in 1897.

On the basis of the farm prices on Dec.

place the 1898 crop of corn and oats as
worth $S3,O0O,00O more than the crops
of 1897. Statistician Hyde accredits this
largely to the difference in prices. The
corn crop is trif1e larger than in 1897
and the average price per bushel is "a

troops to volunteer. but will keep half Of
