Blanco's Army.
WHY Volunteers PAY WAS KEPT BACK
The Paymastef General Was Requested to
Withhold tho Money Duo the Troopa
Until They Returned to the United
states-Gen. sternberg Visits Camp
Wikon-Camps OF Instruction.

WaShlngtO Sept IA complete
division is to be formed to supplement
Gen. Lees corps in garrisoning Cuba
after the evacuation of Blanco's army
and until a permanent and stable gov
eminent is established. "We will not
know how many troops will be required
in Cuba and Porto Rico until Gen. Miles
arrives and we hear from the two mill
tary commissions" said Gen. Corbin
yesterday. zone of the objects of
the military commissions is to see
what is the condition of the islands.
The commissions will fully inform
themselves, according to instructions,
of the sentiment existing among the
people toward the United States to
begin with. If the feeling is friendly
the problem will be partially solved.
If, on the other hand. there is dissatis-
faction and Disappointment that the
affairs of the islands are not placed in
the keeping of the natives at once, we
shall be compelled to keep quite a
strong force in each island in order to
protect ourselves as we'll as the we'll
disposed people who are there"
Why Volunteers' Pay Was Kept Back.
Washington, Sept. considerable
complaint has reached the war depart
ment from various parts of the coun-
try because the volunteer troops in
Cuba did not receive their pay. In
most instances the pay of the volun-
teers was three months in arrears and
the government has been criticised for
not paying the men promptly. Now
that the troops have returned to the
United States, it develops that the
men were not paid because the col
onels of Is regiments requested the
paymaster general to withhold the
should return to the United States.
Paymaster General Stanton says that
the government had an efficient corps
of paymasters and plenty of money in
Cuba and could have paid the men
promptly but for the requests made
by the officers commanding the regi-

arrived here yesterday from Washing
ton to see for himself how the camp
looked and to inquire into the sani-

Washington he will make verbal re-

THE BIRMINGHAM LYCEUM.

Those desirous of subscribing to the fun course can do so now and obtain the bene- fit of nearly all numbers, as only two lec- lures have been given.
 zangwnl sssi.-ass E.
 The coming of Zangwili under the aus- p.ees of the Birmingham Lyceum, has ex- cited more than passing interest among the literary inclined in our community. In the east, where he has lectured since his arrival in this country, the papers have takn him up and he has excited more conn ment than any other visitor to our shores since Dickens. Hardly magazine is without its article on Zangwill. Too much praise cannot be bestowed on the Birming- ham Lyceum for their efforts in securing him. Few cities of the south will be favored. Tickets can be secured from MT. H. K. White, secretary, or from Bert JacobS, 20ll First avenue. And as only a limited number will be sold early applica- tion should be made to secure them. Re- member the date, Tuesday, November 8.
 Read what Ainslee's Magazine says of Zangwill:
 "If Israel Zangwill had not come to this country with reputation a humorist he would have achieved one by the re- marks he has made in public since his arrival. Several of these have been widely quoted, and they all show extraordinary readiness of mind. They could not have been prepared, for they were called out by other speakers, and they all have the marks of spontaneity. Those who have met MT. Zangwill say that he is jus. as humorous in conversation as he is when speaking before an audience. and that his wit is delightfully."- unforced. Few Eng fish authors who have come here in re- cent years have made so fine an impress sion. MT. Zangwills visit will start many paan1a fo raadipo do well to read all of his Ghetto stories, as well as his novel, '"The Master" which was highly praised on its appearance about three years ago.

TRANSPORT VICTOR
Sails from Santiago With Number of
 Sick Soldiers.

Santiago de Cuba, November s2.-The United States transport Victor was to have left today at noon for the United States with number of sick officers and men. Fortunately, just before the hour fixed for her departure, General Wood, military gov- ernor of Santiago, went on board. To his amazement, he found no provisions. es-, lack of delicacies and insufficiency of medi- cal supplies.
 General Wood declares that hereafter he will pay a personal visit to every transport before it leaves the harbor. He thinks 1t had here, the mdical department is not able to manage it's affairs better, and that the personal supervision of the commanding general should be necessary.
 Major Starr, inspector-general of the de- partment, is on furlough of thirty days Colonel Wiley, leutenant-governor. is sick with malaria. But General Wood was fully equal to the emergency. He had the vessel supplied in short order with Red Cross stores and with an adequate amount of other provisions, and the transport left in time to pass Morro castle before sun- down.
 The custom house receipts at the ports in the military department for the month of October aggregate nearly $100, ,0O0
 The steamer Josefita, which leaves to- night, will call at Santa Cruz Del Sur to embark the delegates of the Cuban military assembly, who have decided to hold sub sequent sessions of that body at Mariana the Havana suburb The military element in the assembly has completely over whelmed the civil element.

CAMP AT LEXINGTON.
Citizens Anxious That Troops be Re- tained There as Long as Possible

Lexington, Ky, November 2.-Yesterday committee of prominent Lexington citi- zens went to Washington to see the presi- dent and ascertain what chance there was for the retention of the encampment of troops here Telegrams received today from the committee say that the troops must leave for the southern camps, but that Secretary Alger has promised that they will be brought to Lexington in the spring to recuperate after they have seen service in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Phil ippines.
 The president informed the committee that he would probably visit Lexington on his way home to vote.
 Generals Sanger, Wiley and Andrews have returned from Georgia, where they selected camp sites for the troops. All of them report favorably on the southern camps. General Wilson informs the Asso- ciated Press that the movement from Lexington will not begin for ten days or more

THE LYCEUM.

Fred Emerson Brooks, the California poet-humorist, entertained the public un- der the auspicies of the Lyceum. at Seals hall last night in a manner eminently satis- factory to the large audience that greeted him.
 MT. Brooks gave reading from his own poems, which, as he explained, were all written with a moral, even though the sub ject be only "A Worthless Cur Dog"
 He is especially pleasing in his interpre- tation, acting the several characters in a way that does not fail to bring out the fullness of the lines. His dry humor is excellent and his several funny stories bringing forth the appreciative applause of the audience.
 His poems show a diversity of themes that extend from the humorous to pathetic. Mr. Brooks closed his entertainment with a splendid rendition of "Picketts Charge at Gettysburg"

 White Ladies.

Chattanooga, November 2-Three pri- vate soldiers of the Eighth United States Volunteer infantry. colored immunes, camped at Chickamauga park, were elected from the ladies car of the Chatta- nooga Rapid Transit company's line which runs to the park by the conductor and trainmen tonight. The negroes were very disorderly and ugly about it, and when they reached the park they went to their camp and gathered together several hun dred of their comrades and went to the station at Lytle where they began stoning the train just as it was pulling out for the return trip to the city. They broke all of the windows out of the cars and seriously injured brakeman named Faircloth. Fortunately there were few passengers aboard. Afterward, they stoned another passenger and three freight trains which passed the station, doing great damage. They have declared that they will stone every train on the road until they are al- lowed to ride in the ladies' car This car was put on during the summer for the use of officers and ladies, and no privates, even of the white soldiers, are allowed to ride in it. The negroes refused to listen to their officers. but General Boynton states that there will be no further trouble
