CAMP THOMAS.
Indications That It Will Soon Be
Thing Of the Past.

CHICKAMAGUANA NATIONAL PARK.
Aug. % Judging from pres
ent indications Camp Thomas, the
largest military camp of the Spanish
American war, will soon be a thing Of
the past. A number of regiments have
already been ordered home. A num-
Der of others have been ordered to
Knoxville, Tenn, and Lexington, KY,
and now comes an order to Colonel
Wheeler, acting Chief Quartermastef,
to secure bids from railroads to convey
all regiments remaining at the camp
to their respective State Capitals.
The idea seems to be to get the regf-
ments to places where they can be
mustered out close to home, the ne
cessity for keeping the army intact
being no longer in evidence.
Numerous regiments are now MAX
ing preparations to leave, and by the
end of the week the population of the
camp is expected to be reduced to one
half of what it now is. The regiments
ordered to Knoxville and Lexington
will be moved as rapidly as transporta-
ton can be secured, and as soon as
these are gotten out those ordered home
will be started on their way.

United States. 1t may be hoped that
the Quebec conference will clear away
number of small irritating difficulties,

gotiations and the prospect of better
understanding between England and
the United States as extremely import
ant. We may be sure the United States
will do its utmost to make the con-

The Standard publishes a similar

bringing Canada and the United States
into closer and more amicable rela-

the United States.
LONDON, Aug. 22.-The Daily
News" referring to the coming inter
national conference at Quebec says:
1T is a happy augury that the con-
ference meets in the capital of old
French Canada, which thirty-four years
ago was the seat of the conference that
led to the federation of British North
America. To-day's gathering may be
the first step in a reunion movement
before which even the making of the
Dominion would pale into insignifi-

ERNEST POSSEL'S WIFE.
Much Suspicion Caused by Her
Death.

ROME, Aug. 22-Much suspicion has
been caused by the death of the wife
of Ernest Possel, a German, whose re-
mains We're found beneath the cliffs
near Florence.
The maiden name of the deceased
was E,leanora Beckett. She was either
an American or an English woman
The couple have been staying at Flor
ence since July 1st. The husband re-
turned home alone from a drive, and
Mrs. Possel's body was afterward
found The authorities ordered that
the remains be exhumed, and the hus-
band is under bail.
According to the newspapers, the de-
ceased was insured for $4,000. Mrs
Possel was about % years old. Ac-
corcing to the latest information OBJ
tainable, she probably was an English
woman.

any sort, the amount of supplies handled
by the kitchens is quite insufficient to
relieve the distress to any great ex-
tent. Women and children lie about the
streets, pale and emaciated and look
ing more like corpses than living be-
ings.
Considerable excitement and discon-
tent exists among the insurgent sympa-
thizers, who condemn strongly all the
acts Of the colonial government and
many Of those sympathizers are leaving
the cities and towns to join the insur-
gents. During the past few days hun
dreds of uniforms have been sent to the
insurgents from Havana.
An immense majority of the Spanish
Conservatives in the island and the ma
tives favor the annexation Of the island
to the United States which they con-
slider the only means of securing stable
government in Cuba. In no country
has public opinion apparently under
gone such a radical change as in Cuba.
Even the most ardent Spanish residents
now favor annexation.
The rumors which have been put IN
circulation, relating to the report that
the Spanish army would not obey the
Governments dictation and evacuate
Cuba, are entirely baseless.
It is reported that the insurgent
forces in the provinces of Pinar del Rio
and Matanzas are uniting in Havana
Province, purposing to make a tri-
umphal entry into Havana City.

the breaking up of General Wheeler's
camp on the Caney road on Friday, the

vision headquarters were left in charge
of the Quartermaster's Department.
During the night the Cubans stealthily
coniscated all the tents, stores and

On Saturday General Lawton ordered
the ammunition and arms to be brought
into town, but it was too late. Every
thing was gone.
General Kent's brigade stationed
three miles from Santiago, also lost
their tents and the soldiers marched
into the town barefooted, their shoes
and everything portable having been
stolen The Cubans equipped them
selves with the arms, tents and provi-
sions of the Americans. They are con-

constant vigilance is necessary.

INSURGENT OUTRAGES.
HAVANA (via Key West), Aug. Do
The Civil Governor of Havana received
telegram from the Mayor of Nueva

correspondent in which it was asserted
that the insurgents had committed out
RACES OF various kinds. This the Mayor

outrages, and reports many crimes COM
mitted by the insurgents.
The situation at Havana remains the
same as during the blockade. Provi-

very scarce and prices continue high.
The colonial government imposes the
highest customs duties, which continue
in force, making prices higher and rem
