This morning while the Danville Battery
was drilling two guns OF six horses each.
all of which were green horses, ran away,
one team running the entire length Of the
drill ground, and only stopped when they
ran into the water trough at the spring.
The other team attempted to run past, the
two lead horses fell and all the drivers mar
rowly escaped being run over by the heavy
guns after jumping 10 save themselves.
This caused some excitement among the
other batteries who saw the accident and
will prove a good object lesson.
Yesterday after il had been reported that
the spring where the artillery has been get
ting water was exceedingly low and soon
gave out entirely there was wild rush for
water. The order from headquarters is that
horses has the right of way, and yesterday
the Pittsburg Battery tried to beat Battery
A out of her rights by running their horses
past our teams. Consequently there was a
wild rush for the troughs. Corporal
Haughey and Private Wegner saved the day
for Battery A by finishing first, the other
two batteries close up, with the exception
of Private Doolittle, who was thrown and
run over by several of the horses. Doolittle
was badly shaken up and bruised, but not
seriously injured.
The weather is still hot and dry. We have
had no rain since Decoration day.

manga for Service in Cuba.
CHICKAMAUGA PARK, Ga, June s.
Owing to the extreme heat that prevailed
here to-day there were heavy move
ments or prolonged drills the days work
being confined almost exclusively to bat
talon and regimental maneuvers. This
weather is regarded by the authorities as
altogether the best thing for seasoning the
troops and acclimating them to the more
extreme heat to be encountered farther
south. The camp has been rife with rumors
of removals of soldiers to points farther
south General Brooke states that no or
ders have been issued for the transfer Of
troops, and none is expected for some days
1t is believed that call has been made by
the department for list of the regiments
now here that sufficiently equipped to
go to the front. There are not probably
twenty regiments out of the forty-three
ready for active service, but it is conf
IDENTIFY asserted by the officers who were
seen to-day that an order for these to move
will be forthcoming within fortnight, as it
is believed that the troops from Camp Alger
Will be ordered away first, inasmuch as the
camp at that point has been unsatisfactory
and because there has been so much delay
in equipping the forces at this point
General Grant, who has been indisposed
for several days. has entirely recovered
and announced to-day that his battle prob
lem would be worked Saturday by the nine
regiments of the First Division of the
Third Corps. The general has devoted a.
great deal of time and thought to the de-
tails of the battle, and it is arousing much
interest, both among the, volunteer officers
and regulars.
The main feature of to-day was a review
OF the Third Brigade of the Second Division
OF the First Corps by General Poland the
DIVISION commander. The brigade is COM
posed of the First Pennsylvania Second
OHIO and Fourteenth Minnesota. Revelle
was sounded at an early hour, and at 7:45
Q clock the review began in a large open
held close to the Second Ohio camp. Much
difhcult maneuvering was gone through in
the morning. General Poland expressed
himself well pleased with the showing.
The Letter Hospital is now ready for oc-

A MILITARY NECESSITY.
President Mckinley May Urge Con-
greSs to Annex HaMoii.


WASHINGTON, June 9.-The President
has in contemplation. according to senator
who was in consultation with him to-day,
the submission of special message to the
two houses of Congress- calling for imme-
date annexation of Hawaii as a military
necessity. According to this senator, the
message will be delayed for a few days to
await action that may be taken by Speaker
Reed and the committee on rules, but is
very likely to go in with as little delay as
possible, possibly early next week. The
purport of the message is a special plea for
favorable action, calling attention to the
strategic Importance of the islands, the
great advantage tnat would accrue in the
present war situation through securing them
and other points in the Hawaiian poLcy al
ready we'll known. While the President has
not positively announced his purpose to send
in the message, the senator who talked with
him says the President is very favora BILE
to this plan, and it will likely be adopted
and strong plea made to Congress for
immediate action. The matter mas not been
generally discussed and a member of the
foreign relations committee, when asked
about it to-day said he had heard that it
was proposed, but that so far as he knew
had not been finally decided on.

Bonds Will BE in Demand.

NEW YORK. June 9.-Indications point to
a heavy demand for the new 3-per-cent. war
bonds, which the government is soon to
issue at par. The local banks and the bank
ers are evincing lively interest in the is
sue and in several cases are offering to
place subscriptionsAfor their customers with
out charge. Little doubt is expressed that
the bonds will bring at least 104 soon after
their distribution, There is also large
demand from European bankers and the
whole issue could readily be placed there if
this government so desired. AS it is there
is little likelihood that many Of the bonds
will go abroad, except at an advance over

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
CAMP ALGER, Va, June 9.-The regular
afternoon drill was suspended to-day in or
der to give Quartermaster Compton time
to issue supplies to the One-hundred-a and
ffty-ninth Indiana. The company officers
were busy all day issuing to the men. The
Quartermaster expects to have the regiment
in marching order by Saturday. 1t is now
accepted as a fact that the command will
soon be moved Yesterday it was reported
the move would be to Long island. To-day
it is to Jacksonville, and then on board
transports. The only certain fact to
be that the troops are rapidly getting In
shape for service of some kind. Every man
has clothing enough to last him six months
or more. Pouches. blankets and shelter
tents were added to-day.
There are but one or two cases of sick
ness in camp at present of any serious ma
ture. Quartermaster Compton was confined
to the camp with of mumps for a
few days and was much worried, as he has
plenty of business these days.
BY order of Colonel Barnett the Y. M.
c. A. tent was raided yesterday evening
after dress parade. There is always a
crowd of men present in the tent despite
the fact that man is excused from drill
without the consent of the surgeon Just
after parade Captain Blum marched his
guard down and surrounded the tent. About
forty-five men were caught. many of whom
had been on the parade and entered the
tent afterwards. The result was that the
guard will take another throw at it some
other time.
Lieutenant Donahoe of Greencastle, has
been superintendent of the construction of
wells for the Observation-Disclosures ifty-ninth.
The water question has become so serious
that men have worked night and day on
the two wells in the regiment. Appliances
were received yesterday for drilling wells
and those already dug will be driven deeper.

ANOTHER WATER TALK.
Financiers and Commission
ers Will Discuss the
Bills The Mayors
Position.

Mayor Hoos will not attend tonight's
conference of the Street and Water and
Finance Boards. The water question Is
to be discussed, and His Honor, from all
appearances wishes to avoid committing
himself. Until he does commit himself,
however, nothing definite will be done.
At tonight's conference it viii be de-
cided which of the propositions possesses
the most advantages. The indications are
that the 80, 200. 200 gallon plant of P. H.
FLYNN. which cots s6,415, 900, will be the
one agreed upon by the majorities in the
two Boards. Mrs. Boltwood and Heintze
will combat the acceptance of that plan,
and so will Messrs. Ringle and Simpson.
Mr.. Ringle has procured a lot of data and
will go at the Flynn supporters, hammer
and tongs
There will be an interesting fight.
Should the Flynn plan be agreed upon
the members who favor its acceptance
will then wait upon the Mayor and de-
mand of him some information as to
what course he opposes pursuing. Ii the
Mayor refuses to commit himself one
way or the other, the whole subject is
likely to die, as neither the Street or
Water Commissioners propose giving tbs
Honor opportunity TO veto any action
they may k
The Mayor favors the Rockaway and
Hudson bid because it gives 15,000, 600 gall
Ions more a day at $4,000 less cost thai
Flynn's plant.
If the Mayor says he will not oppose
the Flynn proposition it is just possible
that the Rockaway plant will be adopted.
That course will only be pursued as a
last resort. The members. in the first
place, are not positive that the RockaNay
people are in a financial position to fuliill
their agreement. Again, they think the
company encroaches TOO much on rights
of the Morris Canal and East Jersey Com
panies to be upheld by the courts.
The officials say it will for these rea-
sons, be a waste of valuable time and
money to award to the Rockaway Com
pany. Just what is to be done MAY be
known tomorrow.
