TEARS In THEIR LAUGHTER
PARTING WAS SUCH SAD
SWEET SORROW
That Camp Ramsey visitors Would
Have Willingly Prolonged 1T,
Even 'Twere TIL Tomorrow
Merriment Was ON the Surface,
but Beneath Were Many Aching
Hearts.

The siren reality Of war was brought
forcibly to mind to every person In
Camp Ramsey yesterday, when the
friends Of the volunteers-wives, chill
dren, parents, sisters. sweethearts-
thronged to the camp to bid the men a
last farewell. Every one tried to ap-
pear cheerful. but under 1t all was
grief only half suppressed. There were
tears In spite Of laughter.
The crowd was not nearly as large as
that of the previous Sunday, and 1t was
quieter than on any day Of the encamp-
ment. Every face was serious and
smiles were few.
There were fewer men among the
visitors than heretofore. Women and
children predominated. They hocked to
| the tents and barracks and sought out
their friends among the soldiers as soon
| as they arrived, and many remained
all day in the quarters. They spoke In
| subdued tones and the men were as
| solemn as the women.
| The officers had a difficult time look
| ing after their duties and attending
| to the ladies who visited them. The
several regimental headquarters were
crowded with women all day. To g.
great degree discipline was relaxed, the
| officers allowing their men all the lib
erty they could under the regulations.
The women remained In camp until
| the last moment. They did not want
| to leave and the men encouraged them
| to linger. AS they walked arm in arm
through the grounds they talked of the
time when they would be united, but
! in tones that clearly betrayed their
doubt. AS they parted at the cars they
kissed, and when the men returned
alone to their quarters, many sob was
heard in the dark.
The late cars were filled with women
who had just parted from friends In
| the camp, and very few were in a
cheerful frame of mind. The eyes of
many were red and their cheeks were
wet with tears, and occasionally. a
| woman unable to control her grief,
would break into sobs which would
set others to crying. Thus a whole car
full of passengers would be In tears
half the time.
| Not since the Civil war has there
been so sad day and night in Minne-
sofa.

WHERE SPAIN MAY STRIKE.
Her Fleet May Attack Our Fleet in
Asiatic Waters.

NEW YORK, April PA naval Off
Ger, who is close to Admiral Bunce
Commandant of the Brooklyn navy
yard, said last night:
L believe the Spanish fleet will not
strike in Cuban waters, or even make
a demonstration on the Atlantic coast
1t cannot cope with Captain SIMPSONS
four battle-ships and three monitors. I
believe the Spaniards will strike in an
unexpected quarter.
Mark my words, a squadron of
their fine armored cruisers will go to
sea, and the whole world will be spec
ulating as to it's destination. This
squadron will not be heard of for some
time. 1t viii confront our Asiatic
squadron, which, meanwhile, will have
moved on the Philippines and SEEM
ingly swept everything before it.
The Vizcaya, Oquendo and Cardinal
CisnerOs, or any three of the eight
Spanish cruisers, would be more than
match for our whole Asiatic squad
ron, which consists of the protected
cruisers Olympia, Baltimore, Raleigh,
Boston and the gunboats Concord and
Petrol. Only the failure of the Span
iards to fight their ships, or the most
supreme vaIor and superior gunnery
in our squadron, could save our cruis-
ers from disaster"
The record-union., 1898-04-22

first news bulletin from Washington
to-day, intense excitement prevailed
here, both on shore and among the off
GERS and men of the squadron The
officers who came ashore in the after
noon were notified that they must re-
port on board at 10 o'clock at the lat
est, and that no ''au night shore leaves
would be granted The officers of the
Massachusetts were told that they
must report at $50 o'clock on board
when leave might be granted for a few
hours to see friends. These two ord
ers led to all sorts of rumors. an an
noying one being that the Massachu-
setts had been detached. which was
promptly denied
AT the hotels, where many of the Off
GERS wives We're staying, there was
great CONSERVATION, it being believed
that the squadron would sail before
morning.
At o'clock, after the receipt of the
Associated Press bulletin that the
Spanish believed the ultimatum to be
a declaration of war, Commodore Sch
ley signalled from the Brooklyn for all
engines to be coupled. In port ship
engines are uncoupled, and are not
usually coupled until at sea Ar
rangements We're made for the tele-
graph stations on shore to remain open
all night to receive dispatches.
Despite the strain on all nerves to-
night, men and officers are enthusias
tic to a degree, and that was demon
strated when the torpedo boat Rodg-
ers stopped by the Brooklyn on her
way out to join the Key West squad
ron to ask permission of Commodore
Schley to proceed. The men flocked to
the forecastle and cheered heartily.
The Rodgers went out once before,
but rubbed on a sandbar and slightly
injured her screw. While the injury
was not severe, it was thought best to
fix it, and the work was completed to-
day. She went out of Hampton
Roads at full speed.
TIE colliers assigned to the squad
ron, the Merrimac and the Saturn, are
not yet quite ready, but may be in a
day. The hospital boat is still in the
hands of the ship builders and cannot
be ready for a crew for several days.

Tt is intimated that the revenue cut
ter Gresham, the first of the cutters to
start for the Atlantic, VIII not be per-
mitted to pass through the Canadian
canals without permission from the
Canadian Government. AS hostilities
will apparently break out before the
Gresham can get through the canals, it
is regarded as improbable that the Ca
madam Government will give permis-
sion for it might be contrary to the
neutrality laws.
The question is further complicated
by the fact that the Gresham, which
must be cut in two before she can get
through the lower Canadian canals,
must be put together again at Mon
treal, a neutral port. 1t is believed
that the Dominion Government will
quietly intimate to the United States
that she will object to the passage of
the Gresham and the two other cutters
under these conditions.
THE PARIS SAILS.
SOUTHAMPTON, April 21-The
American line steamer Paris, Captain
Watkins which arrived here yester-
day sails for New York tomorrow
Her regular sailing day would be Sat
urday, but in view of the fact that she
is chartered by the United States Gov
ernment her departure will be accel-
Grated. 1t is probable that she will
sail in ballast, though she may also
take the last lots of war material pur-
cased for the United States Govern
ment.
