drcd Men to Aid Dewey.
A dispatch from San Francisco last night
says: The start was made for Manila late
this afternoon, and the first American army
to sail for foreign shore is now on the
broad Pacific.
AT o'clock this afternoon Brig Cen

the City of Picking and the City of Sydney

from the shore. and the waiting crowds
commenced to cheer wildly. They knew
what it meant well as the sea captains
Or.whom the signal was intended.
No time was lost on board the transports.
The crews worked with "A will. and in
short time the anchors Were up and the
vessels were under way. Then the $500
soldiers who had been impatiently awaiting
the signal to start let themselves loose
They climbed to the rigging and swarmed
all over tn. big ships, shouting and cheer
ing like mad.
1t was shortly after o'clock when the
vessels entered the ocean. and the
glinting over the sea gave the departing
soldiers vast view of the country 20 fight
Tor the honor of which they were sailing
oyer 5000 miles.
When last seen the transport fleet was
steaming slowly to the southwest. After
the pilots were dropped the vessels went
ahead at full speed. and in six days, if all
goes well, they will enter Honolulu har-
bon and join the Charleston. The strain %
expectancy during the past few days has
been severe on both soldiers and citizens.
ard after the noisy demonstration this
afternoon the townspeople felt relieved that
it was all over.
The three transports carried close on to
$500 men. The expedition, which is under
command of Brig. Gen. Anderson, consists
of four companies of regulars, under COM

cision of the lower court and the Travel

back license fees. Other companies af-
fected will bring the total sum involved
up to S1O4 900.
