surgents. urged by constant rumors Of
the intention OF America to re-estab-
lish Spanish rule in the archipelago,
continue actively recruiting their army.
Hundreds from Moanila are enlisting

everywhere. Great diligence is exhib-
tied in initiating the American forma-
tion and manual, particularly in volley
firing. Entrenchments IN certain posi-
tions are being strengthened, and .
vigilant line Of pickets is kept outside

ashore. At the unwilling ceremonies,
the Marblehead men were given the
position of honor, facing the monu-

OFF FOR OUR COLONIES
troops Ordered to Embark
for Manila and Cuba.
WASHINGTON BOYS TO GO AT LAST
Also Recruits for the Second Oregon
Regiment-Troops to Garrison
Cuba viii Soon Leave.

Washington, Sept. 2l.-The follow
ing troops at San Francisco have been
ordered to Manila:
Fifty-first Iowa regiment; Twentieth
Kansas regiment; First Tennessee regi-
ment; First Washington regiment; re-
cruits for the Second Oregon regiment.
Arrangements for the embarkatiOn
Of the troops will be made at once.
It was stated at the war department
that no exigency had arisen which
made it necessary to send the troops
now at San Francisco to Manila, but
the order issued today was in accord
ance with the general garrison for the
Philippines.
It was also said the plan included
30, 200 men for the Philippines, $4,000
for Porto Rico and 60, 600 for Cuba.
The troops to be sent to Manila un-
der today's order will fill the compile
ment for that station.
1t was stated at the quartermaster-
generals department that the return
ing transports which have been to Ma
Mia on one trip will be used to take
the troops now at San Francisco to the
Philippines. Two of these steamers
which will accommodate about one-half
of the command are expected to arrive
in a day or two. Other steamers are
on their way, and will be sent back as
soon as they are loaded with troops.
Four steamers will be sufficient for the
transportation of troops and supplies.
1t is believed that less time will be con-
sumed by using these transports than
in fitting up new vessels.
For Garrison Duty.
Washington, Sept. Alt is the
present intention of the administra-
ton to send to Cuba as garrison force
of the island about 10000 troops, in
addition to the force now in Santiago,
under command of General Lawton.
The organizations which are to COM
prise the Cuban garrison have not all
been designated yet, but it is assured
that at least half Of them will be VOL
unteers. Within two weeks orders
will be issued for the movement to
Cuba of the first 1000 of the perma-
nent garrison. and it is the expecta-
ton now that they will sail from the
United States about October 10. These
troops will be followed quickly by 9TH
ers, until the entire force of 40, 900 has
been established on the island.
The rainy season in Cuba is nearly
at an end, and the most delightful sea-
son Of the year on the island is about
to begin. During the late fall and
winter months the climate in Cuba is
not only enjoyable, but healthful. and
with such care as will be taken for the
health and comfort of the American
forces to be stationed in Cuba. officials
of the war department have no fear
that serious illness among the men
will follow the occupation Of the island.

Santander, Spain. Sept. sS.-The
Anchor line steamer City Of Rome,
which left Portsmouth, N. H., with
Spanish prisoners on board, arrived
here this morning.
Madrid, Sept. 2S.-Admiral Ger
vera, while at Santander, in thanking
the authorities for coming on board
the steamer to receive him, dwelt with
bitterness on the situation of the ma
rines, who, on returning, after doing
their duty quietly, find such an unjust
atmosphere of public opinion.
There are 900 cases of sickness among
the passengers on the City of Rome.
When the train conveying General
Toral arrived at the station at Bojar, a
crowd which had gathered insisted that
the general should show himself. Gen.
eral ToraL who is Ill with fever. uttered
q few excuses and beat retreat in
order to avoid being struck.

DEWEY TO MEET THEM.
Rumor That He VIII Fight Three Spanish
acknowledgements Regard
ing Germany.

LONDON, June 14.-According to a
dispatch from Madrid to The Financial
News, three Spanish ironclads from
Madagascar waters have arrived inside
of Manila, and Admiral Dewey's ships
have gone to meet them.
According to dispatch from Shang-
hal the German steamer Petrarch is
about to leave there for Manila with
secret orders, it is believed, from the
German government.
Prince Henry of Prussia. now at Kiau
Chou with the German squadron, is
kept constantly informed, the dispatch
says, as to the developments of the war.
The Singapore correspondent of The
Times says:
Letters received here from Manila.
dated May 26, say that the prolonged
conferences between the German consul
and Captain General August were ex-
citing attention in Manila and had led
to the belief that Germany had designs
on the Sulu archipelago.

West Virginia FayOrites.

From the preference which is being
given the West Virginia troops in the
matter OF equipment the impression
has become general that they are soon
to be called to the front. The regi-
ment is now fully uniformed and last
week was supplied with new '84 model
Springfield. rifles and shelter tents to
use on the march. -Four to six hours
daily are put in drilling. The regi-
ment was inspected last Friday by
Major Davis and Lieutenant Colonel
John Jacob Astor, who very fayorably
commented on its appearance.
1t has gained the name in camp of
the ''hardy mountaineers, and it's
hospital record is among the best in
camp, the hot weather having little
effect on the boys. Col. Spillman
left Saturday for Lexington on bust

CHICAGO, June IA reverse that
looks like Waterloo has come to the
"Young Napoleon of Finance" Joseph
Letter.
At first there was wild tumble of
wheat prices on the board yesterday,
July wheat selling II cents from Satur-
days close, while September lost 45a
cents and December 318 cents, but ali
made little recovery before the close
an 1t was given out that Letter had
ordered his deals all closed and that the
selling rush was the result OF the exc
cutlon OF this order, accompanied as it
was by flood of ru1nors concerning
the stability of the big bull movement
which for months has been the import
ant factor in board of trade dealings.
One of these rumors was that Letter
had been deserted by some of his asso-
ciates in the campaign. In the mean
time Letters wheat was being tumbled
overheard and prices Had become de-
moralized.
Later in the day Letter made no at
tempt to conceal the fact that he had
sold out all his holdings in futures
probably 100000 or S,O00,0 bushels
here. 1t came out that he had trans

other well-known houses, and that they
were pretty well protected by margins,
SO that whatever losses there were
would fall upon Letter.
His cash wheat, one report said, was
transferred to Armour, but later story
was that it would be trusted" and
handled in such a way as to prevent the
slump which would be inevitable if it
were all thrown on the market at once.
Before the final close the panic partially
subsidized and July reacted cents, Sep
TENDER selling up q cents and Deem

above September, where it was l cent
under Saturday
1t is estimated that during the day
from 100000 to 100000 bushels of
Letter wheat, optional and visible, were
sold to the account of the young
Napoleon.
Mr.. Letter had about 100000 bushels
of cash wheat on hand, much of which
he is said to have disposed of at loss.
1t was reported that l.. q. Letter, when
asked by his son for more money, had
refused to be drawn further into the
wheat deal, and thus compelled the lat
ter to let go large line of his holdings
in order to satisfy his warehouse cred
itors and marginal demands
Representatives of the northwestern
interests appear to have precipitated the
crisis by coming to Chicago, Saturday,
and learning that L. z. Letter would
not advance any more money on his
sons account.
Mr.. Letters friends insist that he has
not made an assignment, but it was adj
mitted that the Letter interests had
been .truSteeti -
