the regiment to the number OF Is gave
expression to their r. sentiment in card,
absolutely denying the version of the
affair printed in this and other papers,
which publications were based upon the
statements contained in Gen. Buffers
order.
The Third Virginia is still under
guard in their regimental quarters. 1t
is reported that about twenty of the
men will be dishonorably dischared
from the service and the remainder Of
the regiment reprimanded for their
conduct.
Governor Tyler and the Attorney
General are endesvoring to settle the
difficulty without having any of the
men discharged. Gen. Butler however,
is said to be highly indignant over
the action of the regiment, and intends
to prosecute the offenders.
Letters received here from Camp
Alger say the trouble between mem
bers of the Third Virginia Regiment
and the negro teamster was greatly
exaggerated by the Washington papers,
as it was paratively a trivial affair.
The roads around Camp A!ger are
still heavily guarded and several SOL
diers absent without leave were cap.
tured by the provost guards yesterday.
That part of Gen. Buffers order
which says that this order will be
published at every company rol-call

week or until fur Ter ord RS" was re-
voked yesterday. Four rolls, however,
have been ordered TO be called every
day till further orders. There were
no drills Yesterday. The men were
standing in groups around camp dis

the outcome of the report
Mr.. Park Agnew, who went TO
Washington yesterday to see Secretary
Alger in reference to the charges pre-.
ferred by Gen. Butler against the Third
Virginia Regiment, says he believes
that the matter will be satisfactorily
settled.
The army wagons that started from
Thoroughfare to Camp Alger yester
day to transport the First Division to
the former place were hastily ordered
to return this morning.

SOME RELICS OF THE WAR
Presented to Nj. King by Lieut..
j. M. Kennedy.
WERE HARD-EARNEO ONES
OF the Boys Owed In the Muddy
Water and Tool Them From
the Hold oil sunken
Warships. t

Mr.. King the well-known salool-
keeper of Commercial avenue. has been
presented with two very interesting
relics Of the war by Lieutenant J. NJ.
Kennedy. The relics consist of an off,
GERS saber and an old-time machete.
The saber Is Of the old type, the scab-
bard being made of some kind of wood
or OF papier mache The machete Is
OF the old cutlass style and seems to be
the same kind as those used by the an
Client Moors.
Lieutenant Kennedy's related the In
cidents of their finding as follows:
"One afternoon I got a pass from Ad-
miral Dewey. giving some of the boys
and myself permission to inspect the
sunken warships. We went that after
moor In a small boat. The water around
the sunken warships was as black as
ink. but the boys wanted to dive In
and try to get some relics of the war.
Corporal John Kavanagh dived and
when III came up he held the officers
saber, which he had taken from the hold
Of the sunken Spanish warship, the lsla
de Cuba. The machete was taken from
the hold of the wrecked warship Dor
Juan de Austria by n Of the boys OF
Co. X, LIST Montana"
Lieutenant Kennedy believes that the
machete is of the same styles as those
that were used by the ancient Moors.
Ar illustration which appeared lately
in the Black and White of London
showed a resemblance to the n he
gave Mr.. King.
Mr.. Kennedy has presented Captain
william Kelly an officers splendid saber
OF Toledo manufacture. The saber had
been given him by n Of the boys of
his who had found IL In the
cabin of the captain of the sunken war
ship Maria Christina.
One Of the members of Company II
once found a very interesting relic on
one Of the sunken warships. IL was a
partly written letter left on the captains
writing desk. II was dated April 30. the
eve Of the great battle. 1t Is now be
lieved to he in the possession of Major
Cook of Butte.
Mr.. King Is greatly pleased with his
relics and he says II will be quite an ad'
dition to his already large collection.

Iron Giving Place to steel.

Steel has almost superseded iron in
the manufacture Of pipe and tubing un-
til IL Is estimated that almost 30 per
cent. OF the entire product of the coun-
try is now made of steel. Up to a few
years ago wrought iron was used al
most exclusively. The lap-weld joint
proved a serious objection. and the
change to steel has been rapid and COM
plete. Steel pipe IL has longer
life and is less liable to corrosion. Steel
tubing has enabled the bicycle Industry
TO become rev~olutionized. and pipe
forms a leading article in tonnage CT
the steel industry in this country and
foreign markets.
