his mother at Lithia Springs to-day.
The Lieutenant reached Atlanta at
$40 O'Clock this morning and for sew

AT Austell there was a call for the
distinguished traveller to come to the

Lithia Springs, where the mother was
waiting. a crowd of guests from the
Sweetwater Park Hotel had gathered to
join in the welcome. The meeting be-

threw her arms around his neck, and
for several minutes rested her head on
his shoulder. shedding tears of joy. The
crowd stood aside in reverence

not forgotten what it owes to the brave
General of Argentina. Though finally
delivered from the Spanish rule il was

established on a satisfactory footing.
and the young republic had for many
years to struggle With bad rulers.
It was not till 1853 that Buenos Ayres
had finally developed into the Argentine
Republic, with a definite Constitution
and President This Constitution is in
many respects similar to that Of the
United States, but there are some i'm
portant differences. The President en-
joys office for six years, and cannot be
reelected; but he is a trif1e more abso-
lutte than the President at the White
House. A change Of government is
not marked blythe regretta bic revolut on
of officials that takes place when a new
President arrives at Washington The
ruling powers are thus more stable and
less subject to the fluctuations of public
caprice.
Since 1884 the republic has enforced
free education on all children between
the ages Of six and fourteen. There are
universities and many national colleges
q naval and military academy, with
schools for mining and agriculture. AS
a proof that Argentina, though Catholic
in its religion, will not allow its educa-
ton to be Influenced by the priests. il
is worthy Of note that, not many years
ago, when the Papal Nuncio advised
some parents not to send their children
to a school where Catholicism was not
taught, he was promptly given his pass
port, and asked to leave the country.
The press is free, and there are many
newspapers. We shall not do wrong in
regarding the Argentine Republic as

MIN spite of the brave words of the
pronunciamento of Captain General
Macias, Spanish power in Porto Rico
is rapidly crumbling. c. p. Hanna,
United States Consul at San Juan Until
the war was declared, gives the Asso-
ciated Press the following text of a
dispatch received by him to-day from a
Spanish official in the northern part of
the island:
Resistance is impossible. The vol
unteers have refused to march, and we
have no ammunition
Mr.. Hanna declined to give the name
Of his informant, but it is known that
he has excellent secret sources of in
formation. He has all along insisted
that the native Porto Ricans were eager
for change from Spanish to American
rule, and that the only danger in the
island was found in the Spanish regu-
lars under the direct command Of the
Captain General.
General Miles has not yet directed a
general forward movement in advance
of the arrival of the main body of the
troops. Colonel Hulings is still at the

constantly report that there is a small
force of Spanish regulars at Coamo,
midway between Juan Diaz and Al
bointo, on the road to San Juan. They
also say that General Olega is on the
way with reinforcements and that the
main body of regulars is concentrating

COMPLICATIONS AHEAD.
Aguinaldo Causing Much Trouble
to Americans.

LONDON, Aug. IA dispatch to the
Times" from Cavite dated July 26th,
says:
1T is becoming more apparent daily
that there are serious complications
ahead. The Americans never made
greater mistake than in bringing Aguin-
aldo and the insurgent leaders here. and
giving them arms and ammunition for
free use from the Cavite arsenal. Aguin-
aldo. fearing annexation by the Ameri
cans, openly opposes them.f
Either he has been encouraged by
some foreign Power. or he has a false
notion of the strength of the Philippine
revolutionists, failing to recognize that
their recent successes are due to the
concentration of the Spanish strength
at Manila, consequent upon the pres
ence of the Americans. Although he
admits no foreign recognition, he talks

AN EXTRA SESSION.
President Mckinley Most Likely to
Call One.

WASHINGTON, Aug 1.-The POST
tomorrow will say:
President Mckinley will call an ex-
ira session of both houses of Congress
as soon as Spain accepts the terms of
peace offered by the United States.
1T has always been understood that
the Senate will be convened as soon as
the treaty of peace was ready to be
acted upon by that body. The atten-
ton of the President has been called,
however. to a situation which makes
the assembling of the entire Congress
necessary This situation can be eX-
planned in a few words.
Under the law which provides for
the raising of the volunteer army, that
army goes out of existence as soon as
the war ceases. When this law was
framed it was not for a moment sup
posed that after the war had ended
there would be any necessity of keep
ing the army intact. The develop
ments of the war make it very evident
that instead of sending the army back
to civil life, fully 100000 men will con-
tinue to be needed. 1t is the present
intention to distribute no less than 3d.
GOO soldiers throughout Cuba, with 3d.
OOO in the Philippines and probably 20,-
UU0 in Porto Rico. Under the law, as
soon as hOstilities cease, the volunteer
army is to disband, and the regulars go
back to its peace footing, thus leaving
only -, GOO men in the service This is
total far too small for the work that
will be required. Consequently the
aid OF Congress will be needed to frame
new laws which will keep an adequate
army Tor garrison purposes.
In addition to this, laws must be
passed to meet the new requirements Of
government in the Philippines and Por-
to Rico.
The President is naturally averse to
calling Congress together during the hot
weather, and it may be decided that the
war is not ended until the Senate has
ratlned the treaty of peace In this
case, Congress will not meet until the
first or midle of September, as it will
take at least month or six weeks for
the full details of the treaty to be dis
cussed and framed. The present out
look is, however, for an extra session at
much earlier period. in the hope that
Its work can be concluded before the
fall campaign has reached it's hight"

Another Fleet TO Sail on Thurs
day.
Carrying Troops to Reinforce Merritt and
DsWey's Forces.
The Seventh Regiment of Calif0r-
ria Volunteers Will Depart on
the Arizona on Monday OF
Tuesday at the Latest.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. lit was
officially given out at army headquar-
ters that another fleet of transports
would sail next Thursday. The steam
ers Lakme and Charles Nelson will
carry the troops for Honolulu, the for
mer the Engineer Corps and the latter
the First Battalion of New York Vol
unteers. The Tacoma, towed by the
tug Iroquois, will sail for Manila
Thursday with the horses and mules
and other appliances.
The transport Arizona will sail next
Monday or Tuesday at the very latest,
carrying the Seventh California Regi-
ment. If the vessel sails Tuesday the
regiment Will break camp and SO
aboard Monday.
The Scandia will sail a week from
next Thursday, and Will carry the re-
cruits for the various regiments.
1t is now definitely settled that Brig
adler General King will command the
next expedition. He will probably go
on the Scandia, and act as head of
that ship as Well as commanding the
expedition. Colonel Berry. of course,
will command the Arizona.
All of the troops here and in the vi
clnity. viii be sent to the Philippines
rapidly as transports can be secured
and made ready.
Because of the confusion arising from
the different department in which the
regiments here are stationed, it has
been decided to make another camp.
Out OF honor to the Commander of the
Department of California, it will be
named Camp Merriam. At the Pre-
sidio already there is a camp, Camp
Miller, which includes, however, only
the artillery. Camp Merriam will in
clude all the regiments that will have
moved from Camp Merritt. Camp
Merritt will still be in existence at the
old race track site until the Seventh
Regiment and recruits have abandoned
it for the transports.
Brigadier General Miller will move
his headquarters to the Presidio next
Saturday, and will then be in com
mand of the three camps
