LIEUTENANT DAME HOME.
Gallant Rough Rider Officer Returned to
0errillos Sunday His Opinion Of San
tiago Campaign Praise for New
Mexico Bows.

Cerrillos. N. NJ. Oct 3.-Lieutenant
w. e Dame, who enlisted as first Sef
geant of troop L, Rough Riders" and
was promoted for gallantry on the field
of battle after the charge on San Juan
in the rear of Santiago, arrived home
last night direct from New York. Lieu
tenant Dame says that he wishes it to
be understood that he has no complaint
to make regarding the management of
the Santiago campaign, and certainly
none of the treatment he and all the
Rough Riders" received after their re-
turn to the United States.
He expresses the general feeling of the
officers and men of his regiment when
he states that it was no military picnic
they did not expect one. and were not
disappointed, They endured all the
hardships incident to a rough campaign
in a tropical foreign land. and none
were put in more difficult places. The
Rough Riders have been lauded from
one end Of the country to the other, they
have been wined and dined wherever
they have been since their return to the
United States, but Lieutenant Dame de-
clares. in his usual vigorous language,
that the lst regular cavalry (white) and
the 10th regular cavalry (colored), the
other two of the three regi-
ments comprising his brigade, are
entitled to precisely equal credit
with the Rough Riders" They fought
and camped side by side from the day
they landed in Cuba until the Spaniards
threw up the sponge
Lieutenant Dame also states that the
Rough Riders who were left behind
at Tampa are entitled to great credit
Every man Of them considered it hard
ship not to be allowed to participate In
the fighting. but they performed their
part of the duty without murmur and
are looked upon by the whole regiment
as sharing equally in the glory.
New Mexico has been brought very
prominently to the front on account Of
the number of men furnished by the
territory for this regiment. OF the $50
enlisted men who participated in the
2l0 We're from New Mexico
and a more gallant body of men was
never gathered together. Lieutenant
Dame cannot speak too highly of his
regimental commanders, Wood and Roo
sevelt. They were the men who con-
ceived the idea of the Rough Riders"
regiment. Their executive ability is
most remarkable and it is
not likely that the country has ever
known an achievement equal to theirs.
1t should be remembered that the regi-
ment was mustered in equipped, drilled,
sent to Cuba, fought it's first battle and
became famous all within a period of so
days. General Wood and Colonel Roose-
velt's first thoughts were always for
the care and comfort of their enlisted
men, whose hardships they shared par
taking of the same food and often sleep
ing under the same blankets. 1t is safe
to say there is not a Rough Rider
wherever he may hail from. who does
not take just as much interest in the
campaign now pending
in New York as if they were themselves
citizens of the Empire state.

Mcintyre Court Martial Serial Con-
tiuued

Denver, Oct. 4.-When the court
martial Of Chaplain Mcintyre Of the
battleship Oregon was resumed today,
the defendant, who pleaded illness on
the occasion Of his lecture on August g.,
was cross examined. The chaplain said
in Chicago he was interviewed In regard
to the trip of the Oregon and the battle
OF July 8. The published reports
Mortified him, made him decide to have
nothing more to do with reporters. His
horror was due to the fact that the
reports were different from what he
Intended to say. He could not remember
what the reports were. The chaplain
said he could not tell what he said In the
lecture. He was first convinced he had
said what he did not intend, when he
found friends had been offended by the
lecture. He had no intention Of sneer-
ing at Captain Evans.
The Judge advocate read alleged in
terviews In the Denver papers, some of
which the chaplain had said misquoted
him.

Colonel Roosevelt, the nominee for gov

Mr.. Depew made the notifying ad-
dress, to which Colonel Roosevelt. in re-
ply, said: at is no more possible to con-
duct state election now without re-
gard to national issues than it was pos
sible to conduct one in 1861 or 1868. In
1861 we had to preserve the republic for
its great destiny; in 1898 we have to
take long strides towards the accom-
plishment of that destiny"

MUCH CONCERN IS FELT
Feared Wilkins and Walker Are
Lost in the Big Hole.
ON A THREE DAYS TRIP
As They Are Considered Expert Wood
men It Is Supposed That They
Have Lost Their Bear
ings.

Much concern is felt here over the
delayed absence of George wilkins
and Frank Walker, two well-known
Butte young men, who left for the Big
Hole country several days ago. The
report was brought to Butte yesterday
hat searching parties have been or
sanized at Wisdom and " started
into the wilds to see If they can get
track of the young men. The two
young men left Wisdom eight days &
last Saturday, announcing that they
would not go farther than 20 miles
from Wisdom, and would be back in
three days sure. They took provisions
only for three days. but they had an
abundance of ammunition, and as both
are crack shots M the woods are full
of game, no solicitude is felt as to their
starving. 1t is rather feared that they
may nave lost their bearings and wan
dered about unable to get back 10 civil
ization. The Big Hole country o
Wisdom is as wild as any in Montana,
and only men expert I'm woodcraft can
safely venture in there. Wilkins and
Walker were, however, considered ex-
perts in everything pertaining to the
sporting life. .
Mrs. Walker, wife of Frank, who bad
been left at Tong's ranch while her
husband made the trip, became very
much alarmed when the three days
passed and her husband did not return.
and she heard nothing of him. When
the three days stretched to a week
she became almost distracted. She
enlisted w. B. Stanchfeld, an old
guide, and he started for Wisdom TO
organize a party to penetrate into the
Wild where Walker and wilkins are
supposed to be.
