Another feature of the case is that
the government has practically served
notice on nearly all meat producers in
the country that the nation has first call
on all goods produced. One firm re-
ceived an order for 500, 900 pounds Of
corned beef. The house was compelled
to refuse to fill the order because of the
governments notice. The meat was in

The volunteers who go to Cuba with
Fitz-Hugh Lee will not sleep ON the
ground if the general can prevent it.
One preceution ranks above all others,
in the opinion ef General Lee. 1t is that
tho American soldiers should not rest
at night on the earth. A hammock with
a strip of canvas stretched over it to
keep off the dew and the rain is what
he is asking for each member of his
command. This will beat tents all to
pieces, he says. He has planned that
tho whole outfit-hammock, strip of
canvas and two poles sharpened at one
end--will make compact, easily trans
ported package, that can be carried by
the soldiers if transportation is lacking.

ing and some provision against contact

Men Of RooseveIts Pack Trains Pass the
Time Lying In tho Shade.
Life for one imp6rtant part of Roose-
velt's regiment, the men composing the
pack trains, has been one continual
siesta for the last week, while the cow
boys have been drilling morning, noon
and night. William Hall. q veteran,
who has fought Indians north and
south, is the packmaster, and under him
are three "cargodos, each in charge of
a division, on train, Of Is men and 63
mules. There are 1S9 glossy coated Mis-
souri, mules in the outfit, each of which
will pack from 200 to $50 pounds.
When a march begins, all of the camp
baggage is deftly tumbled into by
foot canvas sheets and made up into
packs OF 100 pounds each. The mules
are led out, and three men proceed to
load each animal. The bundles are lash
ed on with rope in diamond hitch that
can be loosened with one quick jerk,
aud the work is done. A bell mare trots
at the head Of each train, and the pack
ers, their ready carbines held across the
saddle horn and a long lashed whip in
hand, ride at the sides.
Among the Indian Territory men now
In camp are about 25 Indians, Choctaws
and Chickasaws mostly, with an occa-
sional Cherokee. One is Binkstone John
ston, nephew Of the late Sitting Bull.

How He Took Command Of the Owasco
When His Captain Was Drunk.

How He Took Command OF the Owasco
When His Captain Was Drunk.
How Commodore Schley got his first
command is an amusing episode in his
early career. After leaving the Niagara
he was promptly promoted to lieuten-
ancy and assigned as executive officer Of
one Of the 90 day gunboats, the Owasco
Of the gulf squadron. Her commanding
officer-his name is of no consequence,
and he Is dead now--was devotee of
John Barleycorn and periodically had
to retire to his cabin for repairs, where
he usually staid week. The Owasco
was stationed off Mobile and was one
of a small squadron of which Captain
James Allen of the Richmond was
senior officer.
One day quartermaster of the Rich
mond reported to Captain Allen that the
captains gig of the Owasco was ap-
preaching, the captain pennant flying
Supposing his visitor to be the captain
Of the Owasco, Allen put ON his uniform
coat, the side boys were ordered, apd
the boatswain's mate made ready for
the three pipes at the gangway. When
the Owasco's gig came alongside, the
man who sprahg up the ladder was
Lieutenant Schley.
II expected to see Captain - OF

sarcasm.

and then shut him up in his cabin.
Then l took command Of the ship, and
here am to report for orders"
Allen was fond of joke, and he was
at first disposed to laugh at the young
mans summary action, but he said:
"Well, the first order Ill give you is
for you to lower that pennant in the gig,
go back to your ship, sir. unlock that
cabin door and restore Captain - to

CHIEF POINTS
OF ATTACK

The firing was apparently directed
principally against the MORO. the Fort
Of La Socapa, on the opposite side OF the
entrance, and Punta 9orda, some distance
from the entrance hut which could be
reached br an almost straight fire from
the sea.
The forts replied bravely TO the IRE OF
the enemy. but as far NJ can be learned.
did not appear to do any great damage.
The sound or the csnnonading was
dsafenius. The bay is almost entirely
surrounded by mountains, and the re-
ports OF tho guns were echoed and re-
echoed for minutes after the discharge,
making most terrific din.
The dispatch intimates that some OF the
Spanish warshirs took part In the on
aagement but this cannot be- verified. It
was made known some days ago that
two or tnrcs OF Admiral Cervera's squad
ron were lying sone distance below the
city. and IT Is possible that thev may have
bssn engaged. Ihey could not 10 see
