But Half of the Regiment Coming to
Utah.

Camp Wikoff, Montauk Point, n. Y,
Sept. 20.-General Shafter left the camp
this morning. for Michigan, where he is
to attend the reunion of the regiment
in which he served during the civil war.
During his absence General Wheeler
will command the camp.
The Ninth cavalry which was under
orders to go to Huntsville, it is now
stated, will go to Fort Grant, Ariz., to
relieve the Seventh, one of the regi-
nlents which did not leave its home
post during the war.
The TWenty-fourth infantry has had
its orders changed. owing To the dis
covery that Fort Douglas, in Utah, is
only a Infringement post, and cannot
accommodate the whole regiment.
Therefore half the regiment win go, as
originally ordered, and the other half
will go to Fort Russell, Wyoming.
The Second cavalry has been ordered
MOTTO move, thus countermanding the
orders assigning it to Fort Meade, in
South Dakota. -.,---

ATTACK UPON CERvERA.
Workmen of Bilboa Planning a Hos
tile Demonstration.


Madrid, Sept 20.-The workmen of
Bilboa, where the cruisers which be-
longed to Admiral Cerveras fleet We're
built, have decided to go to Santander
in order to make a demonstration
against the defeated Spanish admiral
on his return to Spain. The govern
ment, however, has taken measures to
prevent the plan being carried out, and
the ministry has forbidden demonstra-
ton welcoming Cervera home.
Captain General Blanco cables from
Havana that he is not in accord with
the Cuban colonial ministry, to which
the government here replied that while
Spanish sovereignty existed in Cuba, he
must apply autonomy and, therefore,
he could not turn out he colonial gov
eminent now in office~and appoint a
new one.
The Duke of Tetuan, who was minis
ter for foreign affairs in the cabinet of

is quoted as saying in an interview:
Senior Canovas, if he had lived, would
never have accepted war with the Unit
ed States. Canovas and myself We're
convinced that war would lead newt
ably to the ruin of SPAIN
Continuing, the duke blamed the Lib
erals, who, he said could have averted
war either by accepting the proffered
good offices of the United States min
lister, General Stewart L. Woodford, or
by treating with the insurgents on the
basis of Cuban independence, or by SELL
ing Cuba
Senior Sagasta, the Duke of Tetuan
declared, is responsible for all our dis
asters, and must be elected from
power

BIG RAILROAD STRIKE.
Pittsburg Conductors and Brakemen
Demand Higher Wages.

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 2l-The Post to-
day will say that for some time past
rumors Of a big railroad strike have
been circulated. but nothing could be
learned until yesterday, when it deveI-
oped that the conductors and brake
men of the roads entering Pittsburg
want to he placed on an equality with
their brethren in other parts of the
country. To accomplish this object
these two branches of the Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen- yesterday pre-
scented to the officials of all railroads
entering this city scale of wages. An
answer is requested within 80 days.
The demand calls for a ten-hour day
with extra for every hour out in be-
yond that. The rate of wages asked is
as follows: Day conductors, S2.75; day
bIakemen, $3.50; night yard conduct
crs, $3.50; night yard brakemen, $2.7O;
extra, per hour: Day conductors, 2712c;
day brakemen, Csc; night conductors,
2Sc; night brakemen, &c. The present
wages are based on 12-hour day.
1t is claimed by the men that the rate
asked by them is paid in Chicago,
Cleveland, Youngstown and many other
western cities.
The distance for which the advance
is asked extends east as far as Altoona,
and west to Ashtabula. Ninety mine
per cent of the conductors and brake
men in this district are members of the
Brotherhood, and they expect the COM
p2nieS to grant their demands without
a strike being necessary.

SOLDIERS UNPAID.
Negligence of Army Officers Causes
Much Confusion.


Washington, Sept 2O.-The payment
of such soldiers as were not with their
commands when the regiments We're
mastered out is one of the problems
that have been presented to the war de-
partment officials. Some time ago or
derS were issued directing regimental
and other commanders TO have soldiers
on sick leave or furlough furnished with
descriptive lists, so that they might be
paid if they were not with their COM
mands. Some of the officers have neg
lected to do this. Then, again, cases
have arisen where soldiers have gone
into hospitals, and their commands
have been transferred to other camps
or home, to be mustered out, and moth
ing was left for the soldiers to identify
themselves for the receipt of their pay.
An instance of this kind was discover
ed by Secretary Alger in a hospital at
Lexington. He telegraphed Paymaster
General Stanton that there were 80 men
in the hospital there who had not re-
ceived their pay for July. There was
nothing to identify the men to the pay
master, as their regimental and COM
pany commanders had not furnished
them with any means of identification.
General Stanton Immediately ordered
that they be paid for July, and will
undertake to trace down their records,
so as to keep his accounts straight.
Today several members of Roosevelt's
Rough Riders were at the department
with note from Colonel Roosevelt,
asking that the department take some
steps looking TO the payment of the
men and giving them transportation to
their homes. These men were on fur
Tough or sick leave when the regiment
was mustered out They returned from
their leaves to Camp Wikoff and found
no regiment to report to. They were

Producing himself to Major Davis, the
United States army surgeon in charge
of the hospital, informed him that he
had come 10 make an inspection of the
institution, and to pay his respects 70
the patients and those in charge.
Major Davis, the attendants and the
patients alike, were surprised and graf
flied at the honor done them by the
president, and he was afforded every
opportunity to make a thorough exam
ination of the hospital. The president
passed an hour and a half in the var
ious wards and departments of the in
stitution, going from COT to cot and ex-
tending a personal greeting to each
one OF nearly 400 patients.
Major Davis presented him to each of
the assistant surgeons and nurses, and
subsequently the president talked in
formally to the convalescent patients.
The president carefully inspected the
kitchen and examined the food supplies
of the hospital patients. At the con-

shape, and the dangers from fever will
have become less menacing. In add
ton to the Seventh army corps of about
10000, il is planned that the remaining
six immune regiments, also now in this
