The Commander of the First Corps
Leaves Camp Thomas.
CHICKAMAUGA, Ca, July 23.-Gen.
Brooke and his staff this afternoon
left Camp Thomas for Newport News
on their way to Porto Rico. The ar
rangements for his departure were con-
cluded by noon today. His train was
made UP at Battle Field station and
was composed of the private car for
Gen. Brooke, two Pullmans and one
baggage car.
The party was made up of the fol-
lowing members of Gen. Brooke's staff:
Gen. M. v. Sheridan, chief of staff;
First Lieut.. James T. Dean, Four
teenth infantry, A. D. c.; Edwin D.
Castle, A. d. c.; Lieut.. Col. Richards,
adjutant general; Lieut.. Col. P. D.
Vrooms, inspector general; Lieut.. Col.
G.. w. Goethals, chief engineer; Lieut.
Col. r. Hudiekeiper, chief surgeon:
Lieut.. Col. James Rockwell Jr, chief
ordnance officer; Lieut.. Col Henry q.
Sharp, chief commissiary; Lieut. Col.
Edward Hunter Carson, chief quarter
master; Lieut. Col. Edward Hunter,
judge advocate; Maj. A. Glassford,
chief signal officer; Capt. whitman, as
sistant quartermaster; CaISCampbell,
assistant quartermaster; Maj. +. E.
Mason, medical inspector.
Gen. Brooke and his entire staff were
dressed in their new kharlti uniforms
and they made an impressive display.
Every soldier who could get away from
his camp was at the depot to see them
off.
When the train pulled out of the little
station about 2:30 o'clock a rousing
cheer went up that resounded through
out the entire camp and was echoed
from thousands of throats.
The generals train reached the city
about $3.50 p. m, having been delayed
at several points because of freight
trains in the way. The train remained
in the city, on account of a delay in
getting the baggage and other equip
ments from the park to the city, until
z o'clock this evening, when the start
was made. Mrs. Brooke, Mrs. Sheri-
dian, Mrs. Dean and Mrs. Richards ac-
company the party to Newport News to
see the ships off.
Maj. Gen. Wade, who assumed COM
mand at Chickamauga today, had not
issued any order up to a late hour this
evening, and his plans had not been
made public. The presumption is that
his staff will remain practically as it
has been constituted since he came here
and was assigned to the command of
the Third corps.
1t is now generally understood among
the regiments of the First corps that
they are all to go to Porto Rico, and
the matter is being exuitantly dis
cussed by both the officers and enlist.
ed men. While the men have all along
been emnently satisfied with Chicka-
manga national park as camping
ground, they are at the same time tired
Of the routine of camp duty and are
longing for more thrilling incidents,
such as they expect will occur when
they stand face to face with the enemy.

The Relief left Siboney on July 20,

experienced throughout the voyage.
When the Relief arrived at quaran-

WRECKED ON A ROCK.

After Danger Was Thought Passed
SEATTLE, Wash, July 23. The
steamer Kalamazoo, built by party
from Michigan, on Lake Bennett, last
winter, was totally wrecked In Thirty
Mile river. The wreck was passed by
the party which has arrived here. Only
the upper works Of the vessel could be
seen above water. The pilot ran her
on rock and a great hole was torn
in her bottom. The steamer and out
fit on board will prove a total loss.
This is the second steamer to come to
grief on Thirty Mile river, after sue
cessfully running the dangerous White
Horse Rapids. The river is full Of
rocks, and a swift current makes steer
ing very hard. The other wreck was
the Iowa, but the most valuable part
Of her cargo and machinery was saved.

WON BY A BLUFF.
Skaters Weakness Concealed by
Demand for Surrender.

Shnfter's Weakness Concealed by
Demand for Surrender.
90 WASHINGTON, D. c., July 23.-It Is
just beginning to be understood that
the surrender Of Santiago was the re-
suit of a big bluff successfully worked
on the Spaniards by the American
army It appears now that on or about
July l dispatches were received at the
war department from Gen. ,Shafter
which declared that he had not nearly
enough troops to capture the city, and
that his line had become so thin in
many places as to necessitate retreat
for four or five miles.
These dispa tches were more serious
in their character than the public has
yet been permitted to know and they
created positive CONSERVATION at the
White house. The Fourth of July was
approaching, and it was feared that a.
backward movement at that time, how
ever wise it might be, would have g.
bad effect upon the country. In ad-
dition to that 1t seemed evident from
Skaters reports that If the Spaniards
understood the situation they could
break through the line at several points
and get into the rear of the American
army. In this emergency Gen. Miles
was summoned hurriedly to the White
house and asked for his opinion as to

Fears for the Sanity of the Vizcaya's
Commander.
ANNAPOLIS, Nd, July 23.-Capt
Eulate, Of the Vizcaya, who is in cap
tivity here, has been acting strangely,
and those who have observed him
closely say he Is losing his mind.
Eulate keeps to himself and has little
to say to his fellow officers. Vagaries
of his speech and action are looked
upon by his captors as indications Of a
disordered mind.
The weeks Of suspense prior to the
fateful day when Cervera's fleet tried
to break through the American line of
ships had a depressing effect upon Eu-
late, and the destruction of his ship
was a terrible blow to him.
A majority of the Spanish officers
are in a state Of mind that Is pitiable,
and many of them have expressed fears
for their personal safety when they re-
turn to Spain.
Admiral Cervera is happy today, for
he has received the full-dress uni
form which he wore in the battle of
Santiago. 1t was brought to him by

the best method Of concentrating Shat
ter's army without resulting in too
much OF backward movement.
After considering the situation care
fully he astonished the president and
secretary of war by advising that there
be no concentration or retreat until af-
ter a first class Yankee bluff had been
tried and failed. He suggested that
Shafter should at once demand the sur
render of the city, and thus occupy the
attention Of the Spaniards. utilizing the
time to hurry forward the enforce
ments. Gen. Miles believed that after
being summoned to surrender the
Spaniards would as least take time for
consideration and not attempt sortie,
because they would be deceived, by
the boldness Of the demand, into the
belief that Shafter was ready to at
tack the city at once.
Gen. Miles advice was followed, and
Shafter was surprised to receive, In
stead of permission to retreat, orders
to knock on the gates of Santiago and
demand It's unconditional surrender.
Fortunately, the bluff was turned into
complete success by the blunderfng
Of Capt. Gen. Blanco, who ordered Ger
vera to leave the harbor. When the
ships were destroyed that memorable
Sunday Shafter was relieved of the
danger of their bombardnent, and the
demand for a surrender, made origin
ally to gain time, became at once a
real condition Of affairs, and Toral was
obliged to capitulate. If Cervera had
remained in the harbor it Is probable
that Toral would have declined to sur
render, and Shafter would have either
had to withdraw from his position or
hold 1t at great danger until he was
ready to attack.
