CHANGE IN THE ISSUE.
Cleveland May Be the Democratic
Leader in 1900.

Leader in 1900
WASHINGTON, June 25.-Represen-
tative Livingston, of Georgia, one OF
the ablest Democrats in congress has
created something Of a sensation by
declaring in favor Of the nomination
of Grover Cleveland as the Democratic
candidate for president in 1900. Judge
Livingston believes that the imperial
policy or a system Of colonization will
be adopted by the Republican party
and made the chief issue~in the presi-
Dental campaign two years hence
He predicts that the Democrats will
bitterly antagonize such a policy, and
that, in. looking about for leader.
their eyes will naturally fall upon ex-
President Cleveland. The Georgian
takes the position that. if silver could
be the issue, Bryan would be the ideal
candidate. but if, as now appears GER
tain, the contest is to turn upon the
question of territorial expansion and
a colonial system, then the Democracy
will find it's greatest and surest leader
in Mr.. Cleveland.
It is an open secret that the Demo-
Gratis in congress have been doing a.
great deal of hard thinking during the
past two months. They realize that
the war with Spain has produced as
tonishing changes in the field of poll
tics. They are not sure whether these
changes will be permanent or merely
transitory. But they find evidences
multiplying on every hand that the is
sues which were at the front in the
great campaign in 1896 will be sup
planted by entirely different PROPOSE
tions in the next struggle for control
Of the government between the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties.
Although William Jennings Bryan
remains nominally the leader of the
party. his influence at Washington has

June 25.-Tomorrow will be the last
Sunday. as well as the last day, of the
Thirteenth regiment on American soil
for early Monday morning the men will
strike their tents and march aboard
the transport City of Para, which is
to take them to Manila.
The men are all in high spirits over
the certainty that they are so soon
TO depart. There was fear among them
yesterday that the regiment would not
go with the third expedition, because
there were so many cases of diphtheria
among them. The medical corps advis-
ed that the regiment be detained at
camp until all danger Of an epidemic
was past, for they did not want the
disease to break out on shipboard An
investigation. however, disclosed the
fact that there was less diphtheria in
the Thirteenth than in any other regi-
ment now in camp, and it was finally
decided to let the Thirteenth go.
The men will embark Monday and
the transport will remain in the har-
Dor until Tuesday morning. when the
fleet will start for the Philippines. Gen
Macarthur, who commands the fourth
expedition. will sail ON the Indiana.
Letters sent TO the members OF the
regiment after their departure will be
sent to Manila

arms, due to vaccination, the men are
in good health.

on the Newport. He will be accom-
panied by Maj. Lewis H. Strothers. u
S. "; Maj. Harry c. Lee, U. s. v.
and Capt. T. Bentley Mott. U. S. V,
His military escort will be two bat
teries Of the Third United States ar
tillery and the Astor light battery. Ter
members of the hospital corps will also
go with Gen. Merritt.
The departure of the third expedition
will leave about 5000 men at Camp
Merritt. They will be commanded by
Maj. Gen. Otis, who will have Maj. Gen
r. P. Hughes as chief of staff and in
spector general. and Lisut. Col Thomas
H. Barry as adjutant general. They
will probably go on the fourth expedi-
