NOT TILL FALL
A Landing in Cuba is Not Expected
For Some Months.

Chickamauga National Park, Ga,
April 26.-The entire Second regiment
or infantry, four companies, from Fort
keogh, Mont, two companies from
Harrison. Mont. and accompanies from
Fort Yates, N. D., went into camp here
today after having remained in the
Chattanooga yards all night. The reg
iment numbers 527 men and is in COM
mand of Col. L. G. Bates, who it is
probable, will be given the command Of
the second brigade of infantry of which
his regiment is to be made a part. The
first regiment of infantry from the
Preside and Benicia barracks, CalifOr-
tillery from the Preside, Cal. and lat
terry K, of the First artillery from Fort
Sam Houston, Texas, are scheduled to
arrive within the next "a hours.
Major Sharp, chief commissariat of
General BroOke's staff has asked auth
GRITTY from Washington, to establish a
provision depot in Chattanooga, such
as the government has at ST. Louis and
other large cities. The provisioning of
such a large force of troops as is now
gathered at Chickamauga Park, rem
ders it absolutely necessary to have the
Dase OF supplies at a nearer point than
st. Louis, and 1t is expected that the
authority for the establishment of the
depot will be granted at once.
Major Sharp has made his head
quarters at the park and a local pur-
chasing agent was placed in charge of
the Chattanooga depot, who will buy
the supplies necessary.
Hundreds of applications for enlist
ment in the regular service have been
made since the enc 4r.pment of the
United States troops at Chickamauga,
and it is the intention to establish a
recruiting station at Chattanooga inn
mediately.
Opinion among the army officers, var
les as to the length of time the troops
will stationed at the National park
Among those best informed, the opinion
is freely expressed that no movement
in the direction of Cuba will be made
for two months at least and perhaps
not before fall. The army reorganiZa-
ton bill will necessitate whipping into
army discipline an extraordinary num-
Der of raw men, at best "A tedious JOB,
but one necessary before the forward
movement begins.
As by that time, the weather in Cuba
would be fatal to the landing Of troops
1t is believed by many that should the
occupation of Cuba by United States
armed forces be finally decided on, it
will not be ordered before autumn.

WOMAN KLONDIKERS.
They Will Leave Seattle in May and
Take the River Route to the
Eldorado.

New York April 26.-Mrs. Sarah
Wright McDannold, treasurer of the
Woman'S Klondike expedition, has been
some weeks in Seattle, making a
thorough investigation of the various
methods of transportation to the Ell
dorado. She has decided that the
safest, best and only feasible way for
women to make the trip to Dawson
City is by the river route, and she has
with the Woman's Klondike expedition
transportation on Captain TalbotS
boats, which leave Seattle in May. The
rate for each person will be $500 from
pounds of baggage, with berths and
meals for the entire trip. All baggage
in excess of this amount will be car
rfed at 10 cents a pound.
The outfit, with provisions for one
year, can be secured by Mrs. McDan-
mold for $3.50 and upward, according to
the quality desired.
Mrs Mcdonald tsill remains en-
thusiastic over the expedition.
Mr.. Kelly knows every foot of the
Klondike district" she wrote to
friend in this city, land he says there
are just as likely creeks and rivers still
unprospected as any that are now Ia
ken up. I hope and expect that we will
locate valuable claims. It's a good
game, and I will play it, even if lose;
but I will win. And, in any case, We
won't have such bad luck as one mas
culine company that know or 1t
gave it's lawyer and another man $4,000
Klondike, and report. They reached
Seattle, but never got much further.
Most of the money went for theater
boxes and hotel bills, and the rest was
stolen at Skaguay. They had their
outfits, but were not allowed to cross
the pass, as they had not the supply of
provisions required by the British gov
eminent.
There are two expert miners and
KlondikerS returning to their claims in
our party, and ten women, like myself,
who go to seek their fortune. I have Is
letters of introduction to many huS
bands-not mine-in the Klondike
country They were given to me by
wives who said their husbands would
help me find good claims. will carry
with each introduction a budget of
home news and letters, and SO [ argue
that my reception in the Klondike will
be a warm one.
Mrs. McDannold says she had a de-
lightful time going across the conti-
nent, and is now having delightful
time in Seattle.
ssThe society of Seattle is remarka-
bly, good" she writes, land the class
of people that are going into Alaska is
above the average.
1.-The theaterS of Seattle, of which
there are several, are well patronized,"
she continues land 1 have seen "A
Stranger in New York among other
things The law here requires women
to remove their hats at the play, and
know it is enforced, because have seen
a woman who refused to comply with it
escorted out of the theater."
Clyde McDannold, Mrs. McDannold's
son, is her constant companion.

TO PROTECT NEW YORK
Point is offered for the Use
of Uncle Sam.

New York, April 26.-Rockaway Point
has been offered to the government
for use during the war.
The government has been considering
the advisability of purchasing the point
for use as an army post for the estab-
lishment of a heavy seacoaSt battery
to cooperate with Fort Hancock at
Sandy Hook to protect the lower en-
trance to the bay. The placing of sew
eraI heavy guns on the point would en-
able the forts to make a cross fire at
the entrance of the harbog, and any
ships attempting to run in close to
Coney Island would be within rapid-fire
gun range of the point.
