I was told time and time again that
the boys would never get farther than
Camp Ramsey. But this is no summer
war. Spain is in a desperate situation.
and look to the Spaniards to fight as
hard as I would If I was in so desperate
a place."
1t is said that John W. Finehout a
clerk in the office of the city attorney,
is likely to be appointed captain.
Majs. Whitney, Shafer and Bean may
be expected in the state at any time
to secure recruits for their respective
regiments. They will receive their or
ders from the war department, as stat
ed yesterday, but it is expected that
each officer will work in the territory
from which his regiment comes. in
which event Maj. Whitney will take the
southern part of the state.
1t is possible the troops may rendez-
vous at Fort Smelling this time.

Ca, May S1.-Much to the disappoint-
ment of number of volunteer regi-
ments here who think they are ready
to go to the front, no orders were re-
ceived for the movement of any Oom-
mands additional to those mentioned
yesterday. The Southern and the
Western and the Atlantic railroads
were instructed today to move four
regiments, two each morning. In ac-
cordance with this order the following
regiments have been DESIGNATED to
move tomorrow: First District of Co
lumbia, One-hundred-and- fifth
Indiana, Second New York and First
Ohio infantry. The Fifth Maryland
Sixty ninth New York, Third Pennsyl-
vana and the First Illinois will leave
Thursday morning.
Orders have been issued and are ex-
pected to morrow from Washington
that all regiments of volunteers must
be recruited to the full strength of 1907
officers and men, and recruiting officers
are to be detailed at once to secure
these recruits. These recruits will alb
sorb nearly 10000 of the presidents sec
ond call for volunteers.
Inspector General Breckenridge this
morning reviewed the Third division of
the first corps, and the afternoon was
devoted to regimental and brigade in
spection Of the same division. The di-
vision presented at review a more sat
isfactory appearance than either the
First or Second inaSmuch as the regi-
ments in the Third division have more
generally been equipped and uniformed
than the others. A single line was
formed, extending for nearly a mile just
southeast Of the Kelley field The col
umns were then formed by tours, then
followed quickly regimental platoons in
line by companies, the division ad-
vancing thus, 5000 men with flags fly
ing and bands playing, to the review
ing stand. 1t was a sight that warmed
up the martial spirit of the old war
riors who witnessed 1t, and one of the
officers in the enthusiasm Of the mo-
ment said: mo nation on earth could
make such a showing in thirty days
time"

The American Hoist and Derrick
company yesterday completed it's con-
tract with the government by shipping
the last of the ten gun carriages con-
tracted for by the government few
months ago.
Three carriages were turned out dur

Within ten days the government will

The awarding Of such a contract to

VIII ReOrganize for War Service.
Private information received yester-
day by Gov. Clough, which, while I'M
official, is nevertheless of a very reli-
able character sustains the belief that,
under President McKinley's second call
for volunteers. Minnesota will only be
authorized to muster IN SIX new COM
-panies
Still, Gov Clough hopes that the
state will be permitted to muster in at
least one full regiment at this time.
Even that would but in small meas
ure> relieve him from the pressure
which is being brought to bear on him,
as not less than twenty different COM
pany organizations are clamoring for
places under the second call. If the
full allotment under the second call
were to be in detached companies, the
demand would not be equal to the sup
ply, SO that it will be seen that, with
practically a thousand Of these men

existing, the problem Of satisfying vari-
Gus communities which want companies
is a puzZling one.
Gov. Clough said to a G l o be re-
porter yesterday, in response to ques-
tions: II have not decided yet what
cities will be granted companies I'M
der the second call. I do not know
really whether or not Col. Shandrew
will be appointed a colonel in the event
that the Minnesota troops mustered in
at this time comprise less than full
regiment.
"One thing which I do think should
be done, however, and that is that in
recruiting the existing regiments up
to full strength the preference should
in every case be given to those young
men who came here from their homes,
in response to the call, spent several
days here, lost their time from their
employment, and perhaps suffered Sc
we're financial loss. I think the state
owes it to them that, where they were
sent back as superf1uOus, they should
be taken care of first. How they may
be disposed Of as to company organi
cations is a matter of less moment.
Indeed, 1t is my personal judgment
that Minnesota boys and boys of any
other state who desire to fight fer
their country will get plenty of
chances. Those who are really worried
about the cutting down of the number
of companies are those who want COM
missions. I confidently expect another
