writing from Santiago de Cuba, on July
23d, says: 1--WE all had diarrhoea in a
more or less violent form, and when we
landed we had no time to see a doctors
for it was a case of rush and rush NIGHT

with ammunition and rations, but
thanks TO Chamberlsin's Collie, Cholera

to keep at work and keep our health:
in fact. l sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the in

packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way of getting sup
plies to the front. There were no roads

a body Of troops in Texas. Immediately
after the admission of Texas Gen. Taylor
was sent there with five regiments of in

of light artillery, to assert the rights given
to Texas by Santa Ana and the new title
of the United States.
The Mexican troops first opened fire on

Mexicans were forced to retreat, and after
several other battles they moved across the

A NEW OUTFIELDER.
The Warrington Management OBJ
tnins Anderson From Brooklyn.

Mr.. Earl Wagner yesterday completed Il
deal that he has been urged to pull off for
some time. securing Outlielder Anderson of
the Brooklyn club. The big Swede has
been handicapped by slow fielding. and for
this reason Manager Barnie substituted
Sheckerd in left. who is very rapid on his
feet and has been hitting like a house
a-firs ever since the season opened. Rccog-
niZinS the weakness of the Senators at the
bat, Mr.. Wagner concluded that the speedy
boys Selbach and Gettman could carry An
derson along in center field without q
serious handicap, and in addition secure
the advantage of the big fellows known
ability with the stick. Last season Ander-
son had a batting record of 3D., but in
fielding Was way down the list. a strange
part of Anderson's supposed slowness is
the fact that he stole forty-two bases las
year, while the speedy Mike Tiernan of tbs

may be another Ed. Cartwright case who
used excellent judgment on the bases, ard
this keenness being of more value than
fleetness. McHale, VINO has been playing
centeriield. is a very swift man. but. IKE
Captain Brown, was weak at the bat. The
California boy can play almost every po-
sition and play it well. SO that he will prove
very valuable as a utility man.
With Gettman in right and Setback in
left Anderson should get along swimming
y. as both his partners can cover acres of
ground. How the Washington club man
aged to secure Anderson is little inside
history. Earl Wagner persuaded Mr.. Eb-
belts to take Tommy Tucker. telling him
that it was only on account Of Doyle's sign
ing that the noisy boy was let out. and that
he was better than eight other first base
men who were drawing salaries as leagIn
first basemen. Mr.. Ebbetts held back 1Jr
some time. but finally told Mr.. Wagner he
would take Tucker solely on his recon-
mendation. The phenomenal work of the
ex-senator for Brooklyn has no doubt ere
ated a warm spot in the heart of the Brook
Ign magnate for ]. Earl, and a result
Anderson comes to Washington, notwith-
! standing the fact that Manager Hanlon of
Baltimore is said to have offered Pitcher
Pond and Utility Player o Brien for the big
fellows release.
The reports from Chicago of the playing
of Arthur Wagner at third base for the
Senators are welcome to the local enthusi-
asts. Young Wagner wrote a long letter
to rIr. Wagner before he reported this
spring. saying that he didn't think he could
fill the bill at third, but If he was wanted
for that position he would do his best to
give satisfaction. His first work was very
poor, but he came from a sick bed, and
while ne failed for that day. his movements
had every indication of being correct.
Since then he has taken on confidence, and
result his work will improve as the
season goes on.
