ONLY A FEW LEFT.
Camp Thomas is Being Rapidly De-
populated

Chiekamauga Park, Tenn, Sept. g.
The headquarters of the First and Sec
ond brigade, first division, Third corps,
moved to Admission today. The Four
teenth New York left for Admission.
Battery A, Georgia light artillery, left
for Griffin, Ga. The signal corps left
today for Knoxville. No removals will
be made tomorrow but on Monday the
remaining artillery batteries will leave
for their home states to be mustered
out, and one or more regiments will
leave for Admission.
The First Mississippi and the First
Missouri will leave for their home
states early next week, probably Tues
day and Wednesday. Chickamauga is
rapidly assuming d deserted appear
ance. Only few regiments are left
and nearly all of the camp followers
have departed. The little town of Lytle,
which has been one of the busiest
places in this section for four months,
is getting back to it's normal condition.
The midway, which was the scene of
much turbulence during the summer, is
being done away with. The scores of
frame shacks are being torn down and
the people who did business in them
are leaving for new fields of operations.
The Ohio hospital train arrived at
camp this morning. It will leave for
Columbus with the sick Ohio volunteers
tonight.

FALL OF MAHDISM.
Europe Wants to Know What
Will Follow Smashing of
DerViSheS.

New York, Sept. 3.-Very tardily the
London newspapers are beginning to
ask questions concerning Gen. Kitch-
ener's plans after the Dervishes are
smashed at Omdurman. The people
here are likely to wait another week
before they learn. The Sirdar is not
going to bolt back to Cairo after doing
what he set out to do as Wolseley did
in 1885 after failing in his task.
The Daily News Enthusiastically OBJ
serves, being the organ of the political
party which deserted Gordon, that the
motto for the occasion is surely: BE
not too bold" and timorOuSly reminds
the ti1nid that King Menelek, Jealous,
angry. and perpIexed with the fear of
change, will be on the flank of any
British or Egyptian force moving as far
south as Khartoum- But this was fore
seen. British plans are based upon an
amicable deal with King Menelek, and,
failing that, he will be fought, not this
year possibly, nor next year, but sooner
or later.
Unless Gen. Kitchener unexpectedly
bellies his record, he will be in Omdur-
man by September 5. Thereafter there
will be likely to be plenty of material
for the speculatiOns and alarms of the
political Quidnuncs. Already there are
rumOrs that when the Egyptian
army has smashed the Dervishes and
occupied Omdurman and Khartoum
the French and Russian governments
will automatically inquire England's
intentions. It is even rumored that
France and Russia have jointly guaran-
teed the independence of Abyssinia
and warranted King Menelek against
attack from any quarter, with the con-
sequent necessity of informing England
that her advance further south will
constitute a menace to their prOtege.
But this would be fastening things un-
duly, as the Daily News remarks.
The Sirdar is generally believed to
have plan up his sleeve. Diplomacy
is not likely to make a move until the
plan has begun to peep over Gen.K1tch-
ener's cuff.
A dispatch to the Central News from
Wady Hamed Camp, ffty-three miles
from Omdurman, tells of a striking
at that place last evening, when
horde of Jaalins and other friendly ma
tives paraded with their commander,
Major Stuart Wortley, before Kitchen
er. The friendlies were elated over the
prospect of revenging themselves upon
the dervishes. In their parade they ex-
ecuted some strange and picturesque
eVOlutionS, sweeping across the ground
in circular formation, amid the deafen-
ing noise of numberless tOmtOms, and
concluding with a war dance. Then
the stalwart tribesmen impressively
marched past in single file and saluted
the Egyptian flag, against which they
had fought for years.
A squad of camelmen armed with
doubIe-edged crusader swords of
obvious antiquity also executed evolu-
tions equally strange and interesting.
All of the natives gave unmistakable
evidences of their devotion to Major
Wortley, who expressed himself as de-
lighted with the splendid physique and
warlilxe appearance of his men. whose
ranks were continually swelling by the
arrival of recruits from the interior, in
Guiding many from Omdurman.

HANDKERCHIEF TRACED.
Which Was Sent With the Poisoned
Candy to Mrs. Dunning.

San Francisco, Sept. 3.-The mystery
of the cheap little handkerchief which
was enclosed in the box of poisoned
candy sent to Mrs. John P. Dunning at
Dover, Del, and intended for baby
Dunning, has been partially cleared.
Chief of Police Lees and his detectives
have been working on the mystery of
the handkerchief ever since they took
hold of the case; they have been trying
to ascertain why it was sent unless it
was sent as a blind and they have been
trying to locate the purchasing place.
They have solved the latter problem
to their own satisfaction, but whether
the fancy bordered piece of linen was
purchased by Mrs. Botkin they will not
state. They have traced the purchas-
ing place Of the handkerchief to the
City of Paris dry goods store, where
there are dozens more just like it, all
marked exactly like the one sent for
Mrs. Dunning's little daughter. The
clerks in the store know Mrs. Botkin
as she was frequent buyer at the es-
adjustment, but whether the handker-
chief salesman will prove a good wit
ness for the prosecution Chief Lees will
not state.

KANSANs GOING. EAST.
G. A. R. Rates Cause Heaviest Travel
in Many Years.

Passenger officials in this city state
that the national encampment of the G.
A. r. in Cincinnati next week will. be
the occasion for the largest movement
of western people to the east that there
has been for a number Of years. The
majority of the western roads will be
taxed to their utmost to furnish suffi-
Gent equipment to handle the travel.
From Kansas and Oklahoma there
will be an unusually large movement
to the east. The sale of the reduced
tickets to Cincinnati opened yesterday
morning, and the Santa Fe and Rock
Island regular trains yesterday after
noon were crowded with people who are
taking advantage of the low rate to
visit the east. Both the Santa FTe and
Rock Island roads will handle hundreds
OF people bound for the east within the
next two days. The Santa Fe is the
official route this year and the official
train will leave Monday afternoon. 1t
will probably be in several sections
The Rock Island will have a special
train of eight coaches through Topeka
tomorrow afternoon, and two special
trains of nine and ten coaches each
through here on Monday
This is the first time in several years
that the Kansas people have had the
means to spare for an eastern trip. and
they are taking advantage of the op-
pOrtunity to travel

STRIKERS WIN.
Discharged Hungarian Miners Will
Return to Work.

Hazelton, Pa, Sept. 3.-The three To-
cal assemblies of the United Mine
workers held long meetings at Coleratn
last night with the result that this
morning, the announcement was made
by President Duffy of the organization,
who interceded for the strikers, that
the strike is at an end and that work
will be resumed at the colliery on Mon
day morning.
Superintendent Roderick representing
the company has agreed to allow the
discharged Hungarian to return to
work in the capacity of a contract Ia
borer, in which position he will not be
subject to the company directly. but
to the miner with whom he is at work.
The discharge of this man being the
chief cause of the difficulty, the strikers
are satisfied and will hold out no LONGER.

WANTS HER SOLDIERS.
Spain Asks Release of Prisoners in
the United States

washington, Sept. 3.-Having arrang
ed for the release and return to Spain
of the Spanish sailors captured after
the destruction of Cervera's fleet, the
Spanish government is now seeking to
secure the release of the Spanish soldiers
who are still held captives in this coun-
try. There are a few of these confined
at Fort Mcpherson, and our govern
ment is entirely willing to be rid of
them.
Our government, having finally con-
scented to release the sailors upon the
sole condition that the Spanish govern
ment would transport them home, NJ.
Thiebaut, acting in the interests of the
Spanish government, has just made ap-
plication to the state department for
similar treatment in the case of the
Spanish soldiers. The request is now
under consideration and doubtless will

KISSED THE DEPUTIES.
Citizens of Pana Indignant at Their
Actions.

Pana, Ill, Sept. 3.-Fifty-four of the
deputy sheriffs who have been on guard
duty at the Springside coal mine made
a demonstration by marching in body
through the principal streets of the
city with loaded Springfield rifles and
fixed bayonets to city hall park, where
they rested on their arms for half an
hour. They were in charge of Mayor
Penweu and Chief Deputy William
Baldwin. Later they returned to the
Springside mine.
All along the line of march citizens
Kissed the deputies and applied all
manner of epithets to them, but the
deputies coolly continued the march.
Mayor Penwell said the deputies were
brought to the city on orders of Cover
nor Tanner, but the state secretary of
labor bureau, David Ross, the governors
representative here, looking into the
situation denied the statement Of the
mayor. Mayor Penweu said it was

BARCELONA sWINDLERS.
They Have Been SwindIing Credulous
Englishmen Out of $4,000.

have ascertained that the Barcelona
swindlers who for years past have been
running what is known as the Spanish
prisoner trick during the past six weeks
have Victimized credulOus EngliShmen
to the amount of $50, 900. This is owing
to the fact that the swindlers gave air
of vraisemblance to the old story by
setting forth that this particular pris-
oner had buried a vast amount of gold
at Santiago de Cuba to escape the
rapacity of the cruel Yankees. Money
was asked for to enable him to return
to Cuba and unearth the treasure, now
that peace has been restored.
All the efforts of the British police
for years past to induce the Spanish
authorities to help break up this inn
pudent gang of swindlers have been
fruitless. There is little doubt that the
rOgues owe their immunity to the fact
that they share their spells with the
local police.
