Scranton Boys Are Off for Porto Rico
on the Chester.

Special Correspondence of The Tribune.
On board barge on Hudson river,
Aug (4.45 p. m)-We now are off and
on our way to Porto Rico. The First
regiment United States Volunteer En-
gineers broke camp at Camp Towns
end at $50 a. m. Tents and baggage
were loaded during the day on a large
lighter at Roahook landing. At $3.50 p.
m the regiment was formed in bat
talions on the parade ground in heavy
marching order and marched to Roa-
hook landing and boarded a large
barge, which was towed down the
river by the tug boat William H. Van
derbilt, at about six knots an hour, the
start being made at p. m.
The distance to New York by water
is about forty-five miles. and the seen
cry is grand, but darkness prevented
sightseeing a half hour from the start.
The regiment is in first-class shape
and starts off with the men in good
health.
We arrived in New York harbor Just
before daybreak and were met just
outside of Bedloe's island, on which is
Bartholdfs statue, by the Chester.
Boarded the Chester at a. m. Satur-
ters until about noon. Few of the men
are writing. as there is no way of get
ting at writing materials, and as yet
no way provided to mail letters.
The Chester is a large boat and has
ample room to accommodate both men
and baggage. Salutes and cheers are
received from passing boats and tugs
almost constantly.
large number of the Scranton boys
have asked me to mention them in The
Tribune, and say to their friends that
they are leaving with cheerful hearts,
and hope to meet them on their re-
turn. 1t may be some time before let
ters are received by friends after we
are left by the pilot boat. 1t is rumored
that the Chester will not start on her
long journey before Sunday evening.
1t certainly looks that way now, as
the Chester is not quite ready with the
quarters for the men.
A breakfast of canned beans and
hard tack is now being distributed.
We have plenty of rations for the trip,
but they cannot be unpacked Just now.
/ am writing this with the expecta-
tion of getting it off on the first tug
boat that comes near enough, but 1t
may be late in the day before that will
happen.
l have been assured that the follow
ing address will reach the regiment at
Porto Rico:

ECHOES OF THE WAR.

ITO help out the situation in the
Ninth Colonel Dougherty today gave
up his tent and had it added to the
hospital. This gave room for ten more
cots, but it was not long before every
cot was filled. Colonel Dougherty now
has two of the small tents for his
quarters. His action in giving up his
comfortable tent for the use of the sick
is highly commended by the boys in
the regiment
THE red tape of the army regulations
has greatly interfered with the work Of
the hospital of the Ninth. If it were
not for red tape the Ninth would to-
day be able to have nearly all its
worst cases in the hospital. The officers
or the Ninth some time ago stored a
lot of overcoats and boxes filled with
various articles that they could not
use here in the government storehouse
at Chattanooga. Among the things
stored by mistake was a large mess
tent, the private property of Company
e. When the difficulty arose about hos
pltal room IT was suggested that this
tent be taken out of the warehouse and
used for the hospital. OF course the
officers thought all they would have to
w "puiu pS W SO u lHt StOFeKeeper,
prove their property, load il on the
wagon and return to camp at once.
"On Monday morning a wagon and
detail was sent to Chattanooga to get
the tent. Chaplain Johnson was COM
missioned to purchase a lot of cots and
fiooring. The cots and flooring We're
soon delivered but the party that went
for the tent werA not so successful.
They were allowed to go through the
warehouse and soon found the coveted
tent. But when they wanted to take
1t they were told they could not have
1t without an order from Colonel Lee,
the quartermaster at Lytle. This me-
cessitated trip to Lytle, and when
Col. Lee was asked for the necessary
order he turned the request down and
said II would have to be done through
the regular military channels.
Colonel Dougherty and Major
Weaver today made another attempt
to get the tent. They called on Colonel
Lee and laid all the facts before him
and urged the necessity of taking care
OF the sick. 1t is said one objection
made was that no private property
should be used In the camps of the
United states army. Here Dr. Weaver

spoke UP and said: Colonel Lee. we
have about seventy-five cots, brought
with money sent to the regiment, shall
we take these cots from the sick men
and compel them to sleep on the
groundT To this the colonel could give
no reply DR.. Weaver made an elo-
quent appeal for the sick men and
showed UP the needs of the volunteer
army. especially of the medical depart
ment. Here Colonel Lee spoke up
brusquely and reminded DR.. Weaver
that several surgeons had been called
up for making similar remarks. DR.
Weaver at once answered: i don't
care If they have; and. II necessary,
I will defend what I nave said all the
way to Washington The conference
did not bring the desired results, Lee
insisting that the matter would have
to go through the regular military
channels. Thus the regiments hands
are tied and they will have TO get
along with such facilities as they have
until some one cuts the tape.
Colonel Dougherty has telegraphed
to Wilkes Barre for Company DIS mess
tent and 1t is likely that it will arrive
by express in few days.
Colonel Dougherty also made an at
tempt to move his regiment to a more
suitable spot and after a tour of sew
eral hours inspecting various sites he
selected a good place for the camp. His
selection was approved by Brig. Gen.
eral Andrews, but when it was brought
up to General Sanger, the division COM
mander it was Immediately turned
down. Colonel Dougherty then issued
orders to take down all the tents of the
companies and rearrange them, two
platoons to the company. This makes
two rows of tents facing each other in
each company street. The object of
this was to bring the men ont Of the
hollow and get them together on the

the Hawthorne Athletic club, which is
now world famous on account of it's
success in securing the greatest boxing
contest of the century-the Mccoy
Corbett go-after all of the leading
clubs Of the country had bid against
them and had been defeated.
There has been considerable mis-
understanding about the contest which
takes place on the 10th of next month,
and a history of the organization is
interesting. A number of Buffalo
sportsmcn who are interested in the
well-known Olympic Athletic club of
Buffalo some months since decided to
bring to Buffalo a contest between the
best known Of the heavyweight divi-
sion. They bid for Mccoy and Choyn-
ski, ard had their signatures when it
is well known the jealousy of New
York manager of boxing shows showed
itself, and he Induced Choynski to go
back on his word.

club house was much too small for

procured another charter. and the

The match between Jim Judge, of
this city, and Tom Williams has been
made. They are to box 20 rounds at
14j pounds before the American Sport

contest will be for decision. Word to
this effect was received here yesterday
from Jack Skelly, manager of the club.
Williams ought to be one of the best

contest in Scranton. He is the cham

figured in over 200 contests. For some
