ware volunteers spent to-day in drilling
and guard duty. There Is much prelimi-
nary work to be done yet, and it Is the
opinion Of the officers that tho pgimenb
will be here for another week at least.
Some members of the Grand Army are
hoping that the regiment will be ordered
to move on Monday next. and allowed to
parade in Wilmington on Memorial Day.
1t is not likely, however, that tho
government will agree to such plan. The
Wilmington people will do all that they
eau 10 get the regiment in Wilmington
for short time before 1t finally marches.
Permission was to day received from
the War Department and the President to
allow Governor Tunnel to commission
First Lieutenant Walter II. Gordon of the
Eighteenth Infantry, to DO majo of the
First Delaware Regiment. Lieutenant
Gordon has for somu time been military
instructor at Delaware College. He has
always been interested In the National
Guard.
A new order of things went In, 10 effect to.

will be required to provide their own food

ceived authority from the War Depart
ment to muster into the United States

SPAIN Isl TIRED Of WAR.
Responsible Spanish State5men Prepared
to Seize the First Opportunity
TO End It.

London, May 25.-The Madrid cor
respondent of The Daily News says:
"Rumors as to the negotiations of the
powers in favor of peace are prema-
ture. but responsible Spanish states
men are prepared to seize the first op-
portunity to end the war, provided 1t
can be done on terms honorable to
Spain. Should neutral nation come
forward with an honorable arrange
ment its proposals would be examined
here in no impractical spirit of false
pride. If, therefore, America does not
insist upon impossible humiliations
there is still possibility of peace.
Marshal Martinez Campos, in the
course of an interview, has said that
the salvation of the Philippines is in
the hands of the natives themselves,
and that much care ought to be exer-
cised to win them to our side. He
pooh-hooed the alarming rumors about
England and Gibraltar. The important
thing, he declared, is that Admiral
Cervera should be able to divide tho
American squadron"

AT CHICKAMAUGA PARK.
Now $4,000 Volunteers There, and 5000
More Expected-0nly Small
Percentage Equipped.

Chickamauga Park, Ga Nav 25.-
There are now $4,000 men in the vol
unteer army under tents at this point,
and the officers of the army eXpec.
that by Saturday night there will be
$4,000.
The Third Tennessee regiment, the
first distinctively southern troops to
reach the park, arrived yesterday under
command of Colonel ]. P. Duffe, zoos
officers and men. The First Vermont
regiment also arrived. There are IL
companies, 1,207 officers and men, under
command of O. d. Clark. These regi-
ments were assigned to the first bri-
gade for the first division of the corps.
The division will be completed by the
Eighth New York, which arrived to-
day
The day at the park was unmarked
by any incident except the battle drill
of the first division of the first corps.
The movements were under command
of General Wilson, and the men were
put through the exercises in a very
thorough manner. The regiments Of
the division have been in camp long
enough to have become somewhat in
ured TO the climate, as well as the
work. and the maneuvers were char
acterized by a great energy, accuracy
and remarkable precision.
General Brecknridge and staff con-
tinued the inspection of the divisions
of the first corps in detail. He found
the hospital facilities still inadequate,
but fortunately there are very few
sick, and they are being cared for at
ST. Vincents hospital by the Sisters
of Charity. He states that In very
short time the hospital department
will be in good condition.
General Breckenridge yesterday gave
orders for a sham battle for inspection
this morning. The two first .brigadcs Of
the first division Of the first corps at
tackled the Third brigade, entrenched
on Snodgress Hill the attacking bri-
gades being in command of General
Wilson and the defenders under COM
mand of their brigade commander.
Only small percentage of the men
have been equipped and provided for
war. but that this work is progressing
IS rapidly as possible General Breck-
inridge thinks that in view of the fact
that almost every regiment in camp
had to be equipped almost completely,
the progress made was remarkable.

Cut Ono Cable Successfully

Key West, May 25.-The United
States auxiliary tug Wamratuck
brought in yesterday a story Of a
sharp skirmish off Santiago de Cuba
last Wednesday. The tug, with the
United States auxiliary cruiser st.
Louis went in to the Santiago channel
to cut the cable. While the vessels
We're engaged in the work they were
fired on by the shore batteries. The
St. Louis returned the fire, and lively
fusilade cnsued for about half an hour.
The Wampatuck eventually succeeded
in cutting the cable. None of the
Spanish shots succeeded in reaching
either boat. The attempt to cut the
cable off Guantamo was unsuccessful,
the WampatuCk being driven off.

IEIPATIENCE AT TAMPA.
Soldiers Believe tho March on Cuba

Soldiers Believe tho March on Cuba
Is Near at Hand.
Tampa, Fla, May 25.-A condition of
almost Ominous quiet, the calm before
the storm, prevails around army head
quarters at Tampa and at the docks
Of Port Tampa. The long weary weeks
of drilling In the blazing sun and
Sitting dust Of southern Florida will
soon he but q memCry in the minds Of
those engaged. Every soldier in Tampa
from the highest officer to the raw re-
cruits is watching with an interest al
most painful in its intensity for news
from the fleets. In the minds of all
is the settled conviction that the hour
when news of q battle between Samp-
son and Schley and Ccrvera is re-
ceived at Washington will mark the
time for the issuance of orders to en-
bark. and that this is a matter Of
few days is not doubted. Perhaps it
will be but a few hours. 1t is the be-
lief at least that the American COM
manders have the clever Spanish ad-
,rlral in 2 position where he cannot
escape, whore his only recourse is to
fight, and that can result in but one
thing-the destruction of another Span
ish fleet.

! Montego Bay, Jamaica, May 25.-The

become the scene Of great naval ac-
tivity Commodore Schley, who left
Key West last Thursday with the Uni.

believed to be cruising off Cienfuegos

officers that he would sail for Cienfue-
gos soon by the eastern route, the two

Cuba.

NOT A HOSPITAL SHIP.
Tho Alicante Carries n Cargo of Coal
For Spanish Wnr-hlps..


st. Pierre, May 25.-The Spanish tor
pedo boat destroyer Terror Is being
coaled by the Spanish steamer ALI
cante. The Alicante lies at the mouth
of the Fort de France harbor. 1t was
all along supposed that she was hos
pital ship. but there is now no doubt
that she carries a cargo of coal for
the Spanish warships, Her pretensons
to be a hospital ship were obviously
put forward as a blind.
The United States consul has eau
toned the French officials of the port
not TO allow the Terror to take coal in
excess of the quantity necessary to
carry the Terror to the nearest Spanish
port. 1t is reported that the Terror will
leave Martinique today. She Is un-
dcrstood to be in good condition.
