WANTS ANOTHER ARMY.

The New Force Will Require Three
New Major Generals and Twenty
four Brigadfers-The Newvolunteers
Increase the Army to 27S, 500 Men.
Washington. May 26.-The event of
yesterday in the war situation was the
issuance of a proclamation by the pres
ident calling for $4,000 more volunteers.
1t added new and stirring phase to
the lethargic conditions which have
prevailed of late and came with almost
startling unexpectedness, even to many
of the high officials in the army.
The proclamation means not only the
assembling of large force of troops,
but also the appointment of a number
of major generals, brigadier generals,
colonies, majors and staff and field of
ficers for the organization of this adj
ditional force of $4,000 men into army
corps, divisions. brigades and regi-
ments. The reasons leading up to the
call naturally were sources of much
conjecture, as it was at first felt that
the possibility of foreign complications
was factor in bringing about this new
move. 1t speedily developed, however,
that the call was not due to any latent
or serious emergency, but was rather
in the line of getting together a large
body of men to be drilled and season
ed, and to constitute a sort of second
reserve, to be drawn upon later when
the campaigns are fully under way.
Secretary Alger stated that the deter
mination to issue the call had not been
reached until late Tuesday.
All that is settled th11s far 10 tha Z
the enlistments are to be thrown open,
much as they were at the outbreak of
the civil war, and are not to be re-
stricted to the militia and national
guard organizations of the several
states. 1t will be an encouragement
to the organization of Independent vol
unteer companies and regiments.
Just now the adjutant generals office
is engaged in completing the enlistment
of the 125O00 volunteers under the first
CALL It will take some time to COM
plete this work, and not until then will
the real work of organizing the volun-
teers under the second call begin.

Patriotism at an Ebb.

Patriotism and loye of country is receiv-
ing a serious set back at the hands of the
elected rulers of the United States. The
cause of this appears to be the manner in
which the volunteer troops are being
reorgauized, and the appointing to office
of those who have never been in military
service TO the exclusion not only Of the
regular army officers, but also those of the
National Guard who have been in military
training for many years. From the
Western States Gas an instance among
thousands of the same kind) comes de-
cision and query from one who volunteered
with the Rough Riders" He had carried
a gun for four years at Military College
in Ohio, and was given his choice of an
appointment as an officer, or member
in the champion company which was COM
posed of the best drilled men in the school,

ducive to an increase of avoirdupois, but
he stood six feet in height. On examination
he was rejected as being " too light in
weight for his height"
He expresses himself in this manner:

How Is it that John Logan the Sport can

reputation And why should the English
born son of Algernon Sartoris, only out of
his teens, with no military training, and
Just recently naturalized for the occasion,
have an appointment as an officer by the
President Just because he happened to have
had General Grant for a grandfather ?
What good does it do the State Guards to
spend night every week in drill for five,
ten or twenty years just to volunteer with
raw recruits at the tune the country needs
help and lose their title, and work as

green men, who have never carried gun.
but has a pull on the Nation ?"
Such is the feeling all over the country.
Public men are pushing their sons and
proteges under the Presidents nose, and he
dare not refuse their demands Bow many
will deem it an honor in the future to be a
State Guard, or cadet, after they have
been SO insulted by this political war
management The Guard seems only
meant to call out for quelling mobs, and
even then its members are court martialed
for doing their duty in obeying orders
There are many young men who are now
thinking as this one does, that after his
proffered help was rejected for nothing at
all, that Uncle Sam shall do without him,
and his love for his country will diminish,
just on account of the unnecessary display
of red tape, and the political wire pulling
of this administration. Elk.

Great Game of Warfare to Capture or
Destroy Cervera's Fleet.
Key West, May pa newspaper
dispatch boat has arrived here with
the story of the movements of Adj
miral SIMPSONS fleet, which on Mon
day last was lying directly opposite the
entrance to Havana harbor, about ten
miles off shore. A meeting of the
commanding officers was held on board
the flagship, and Immediately there
after the feet set sail to cooperate
with Commodore Schley's feet in pre-
venting Cerveras escape from Santiago
de Cuba.
A number of vessels were left be-
hind on blockade duty, the acting flag
ship flying a blue pennant. About
two hours later large double masted
and double fnnneled cruiser came
steaming under full Roadway from the
westward. When within hating dis
lance, and without slackening her
speed, she exchanged signals with the
acting flagship off Havana A string
of colored bunting was hoisted aloft
on the flagship halliards and the
cruiser pushed on at full speed After
wards the squadron was in the Nicho-
las channel off Cardenas, heading for
the old Bahama channel. The squad
ron was proceeding with care, for Adj
miral Cervera had not yet actually
been bottled up, and care must be
taken lest the fox turn and dash out
of Santiago around the east end of
Cuba, up through the Windward pas
sage. and north to attack the cities of
the Atlantic coast of the United States.
In all likelihood Commodore Schley
was able to spring the trap, and then
Rear Admiral Sampson probably has,
tened to Santiago. A great game is
being played, and the situation is one
of extreme suspense. After Admiral
Gervera is sealed up in Santiago har-
Dor the problem will be, as in the case
of ''varmint" caught in trap,
whether to shoot or starve him. In
any event Admiral Cervera, it is be-
lieved, cannot reach Havana Two
powerful fleets, each having fast YES
sells, as well as heavy ones, and each
able to destroy him, have closed in
upon him. Naval officers here believe
that the battleship Oregon will be or

fusing are worthy of unqualified praise.
Mr.. Davis feels first that he has not the
experience or the ability 10 serve in the
position for which he was named. But in
addition he believes, justly, that it would
be unfair for him to accept such an APP

Dispatches From Madrid and London
Confirm the Reports That the Fleets Of
Sampson and Schley Have the Spanish
Admiral Bottled Up in the Santiago de
Cuba Harbor.
Madrid, May ga dispatch from
Havana says the American warships
are concentrating before Guantanamo
and other ports near Santiago de Cuba,
as well as the latter port, which seems
to indicate that the squadrons are pre-
pairing to attack Admiral Cervera. The
anxiety increases daily, but the public
is disposed to continue the resistance
to the utmost.
A dispatch has been published giving
details of the arrival of Admiral Ger
vera's squadron at Santiago de Cuba
1t says:
At 8 o'clock on the morning of May
10 the Infanta Maria Teresa entered
the port of Santiago de Cuba flying
the flag of Admiral Cervera. She was
followed almost Immediately by the
Vizcaya, the Almirante Oquendo, the
Cristobal Colon and the torpedo boat
destroyer Pluton. Soon afterward ths
torpedo boat destroyer Furor, which
had been accommodating, arrived.
The inhabitants swarmed to the
shores of the bay, displaying the ut
most joy and enthusiasm. All the
vessels in the port were dressed in
gala array. On Sunday night there
was an imposing demonstration in
honor of the officers and crews. The
bands of the city played patriotic airs
there were brilliant Examinations, and
the people paraded the streets singing
patriotic songs.
Admiral Cervera and his officers
were given a banquet at the Casino
where loyal toasts were honored, the
principal speeches being, by Admiral
Cervera and Mgr. Saenz de Urturix y
Credo, archbishop of Santiago de
Cuba, the latter of whom exclaimed
