specfal Dispatch to The Age-Heraid. es BY AHCHEsAhD- w..HUTT.

sWashington. Aug 5. -Ths war i1ss como temporarily to q haIt m thIs c5s1H1iz whether it Will be continued IF nof 6S- pends upon spain's reply which nospses on the desk of the president. But whethel. the war goes on or not will make little difference to the troops which are in camp now along the coast.
 The order was sent out today revoking the orders formerly issued for General Wade's division to proceed to Porto Rico. These orders instructed the troops to re- main where they were and even for the transports which were loaded to stsv in port. This change of programme is the result of a dispatch from General Miles. in which he protested against any moro troops being sent to Spain giving two rea- sons, first that they were not needed to take the island and secondly that he did not want to be saddled with an unweldly army there. Secretary Alger said today that the camps at Chickamauga Fernan- dina and Jacksonville would likely be broken up and the troops moved further north to healthier camps
 Bitter Disappointm. mt
 Here they will remain, as many as WI be deemed necessary to garrison Cuba until frost, when they will be sent to the island. The department realizes that tn re will be bitter disappointment among these troops which had been detailed for Porto Rico, but with the commanding general protesting against them being sent, it would be the height of folly to incur the gratify the political exigencies of the si.- uation.
 There are six brigades under the com- mand of General Wade. The First bri- gade is composed of the First Rhode Island, Fourth Missouri and Twenty-sec- ond New York; the Second brigade of the First North Carolina, First Alabama and First Arkansas; the Third brigade of the First New Hampshire, First Vermont and Fifty-second Iowa; the Fourth brigade of the First New Jersey, First West vir- ginia and Third Virginia; the Fifth bri- gade of the Second Texas, First Connects cut and First Delaware; the Sixth brigade of the First Maine, Third Tennessee and First Maryland.
 None of the troops under General Wade's command have yet started
 The department was not accurately in- formed this afternoon as to which of Will sons troops would be held up under this Illinois, which has been four times disap- pointed by the revocation of orders to the front. is among those which have not yet gone on board the transports.

ONLY THE BEST is GOOD ENOUGH

ONLY THE BEST Is GOOD ENOUGH
First in the field of Almanacs-as il
always has been-comes that valuable
publication which The PAiladolphiu
Record gives to its nearly 100000 sub
scribers. The edition for 1899 is as
handsome as ever and little better, if
possible, than any of its predecessors.
A unique feature is Is page original
sketch OF our war with Spain, such a
condensed history of that memorable
struggle, with its far-reaching results, as
will prove gem in national annals.
All the other features of the Almanac
which have earned for it such wide
spread reputation as an accurate chroni-
cler of sporting records of all sorts-not to
mention its value in the home and the
business place-have been preserved,
and it is only just to say, as this is the
first issue of the Almanac since Colonel
singerly died, that its character las well
as that of The Record proves that the
guiding hand Of that great newspaper
establishment was not palsied by the
death of one man.
