England Preparing for Trouble in
the Pacific Ocean.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. 22.-
According to advices received in this
city the English government is about
to purchase all the private property In
the village Of Esquimault, where is
located the British naval station Of it's
Pacific Amer1can possessions. For
many months past hundreds Of men
have been employed in constructing
fortifications, but none save the most
trusted officers of the army and navy
possess any details.
What the general plan is, however, is
common knowledge. 1t contemplates
the equipment of "a store, repair, and
supply station second to none In the
empire; the building and manning Of
forts capable of defending the depot
against any force that could be
brought against 1t, by sea or land; the
providing of docks large enough to re-
ceive the largest ships and the estab-
lishment Of barracks. a service prison,
and other necessary buildings for the
use and benefit Of the, numerous SOL
diers and sailors who will be required
to hold the forts and man the ships Of
the station 3
Up to the building OF the existing
dock and for some little time after
ward 1t was not anticipated that any
larger craft than the then best Of her
majesty's navy would ever require to
be cared for on the Esqudmault docks.
Never yet has ship been detailed for
service In the North Pacific coast that
was too large for docking there. The
question now Is whether the present
dock Will be enlarged or a new one

Likely to BE Mustered Ont.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 22.-The
Fifteenth Minnesota is making active
efforts to be retained in service. A
strong letter from Capt John w. Fine
hout, st. Paul, was filed TODAY at the
war department. After reading it
Adjt. Gen. Corbin said:
While it is true that all letters. re-
quests and petitions, similar to that of
capt. F1nehout, are being filed and are
TO be given consideration, we cannot
yet give any positive assurances Nthat
the regiments mustered in under the
second call will be retained. You can
readily see that the cost of transporta-
tion and additional equipment for the
troops that are still at home camping
grounds will be a very large item if it
was decided to retain them and send
them even as far South as the present
rendezvous of those regiments, which
were first mustered in. Nevertheless
should the desire of other Minnesota
regiments to be mustered out be made
APPARENT, there would be a chance for
the Fifteenth to remain in service for
several months"
From Gen. Corbin's manner and con-
Versation it was clear that none of the
officers of the Twelfth or Fourteenth
are anxious to be mustered out.
The proba bilites at this time are
that Col. Bobleter and the Twelfth
regiment will be the Minnesota regi-
ment retained.

MILES TO RETURN.
Gen. Brooke VIII Assume Command
in Porto Rico.

PONCE, Island of Porto Rico, Aug.
22.-Maj. Gen. Miles has decided to
leave with his staff for Washington in
a few days, possibly tomorrow. He
will turn over his command to Gen.
Brooke, who is expected to recah here
tomorrow for conference.
Gen. Miles has arranged matters
generally with Capt. Gen. Macias, pre-
paratory to the meeting Of the peace
commission at San Juan. Gen. Macias,
while maintaining his outposts, is
steadily retiring his forces to the cap
ital, preparatory to their embarkation.
Mail communication between Ponce
and San Juan has been established,
and the overland telegraph wires,
which have been severed, will be con-
nected immediatel
All that will remain for the commits
sion to do, Gen. Miles says, will be to
secure an inventory Of government
property transferred to the Americans,
and to give receipts to the Spanish
authorities.
Capt. Gen. Macias, in his various
communications with Gen. Miles, has
shown the best spirit. He is anxious
to cooperate in bringing about an
evacuation at the earliest moment pos
sible, and is placing no obstacles in the
way of the volunteers returning home.

CHICKAMAUGA, Aug. 23.-LaJte this

instructions from the war department
to send the Third corps to Huntsville,
Ala, as speedily as practicable. This
corps will report to Gen. Copplnger and

| OF DER disposes of all the troops at Camp
Thomas and will result in sending
away for the present all troops now
encamped here. The purpose appears
to be two-fold, that of gratifying the
troops by change of scene and that
of giving the great camp ground at
Chickamauga a chance to rest after
four months of constant use by from
10000 to 10000 soldiers. Gen. Breckin-
| ridge will also send officer to Hunts
vile to consult with Gen. Coppinger
about arranging the details of the

The regiments of the I'd corps WILL
perhaps begin leaving this camp next
week and will go out as rapidly as
transportation can be provided.
Only two regiments left the camp
today. They were the Twelfth Mime

the first brigade of the Third division.

The excitement which has been brew

1t seems that the men were too has
ty to believe a report that had been
started without any foundation that
their services had been rendered by
Col. Van DuZee to the authorities at
Washington without first getting their
consent. The men have made great
mistake in thinking that Col. Van Du-
re has offered to take them to Ha-
vana or any place else. A meeting Of
the officers of the regiment was held
Monday night and some one brought
up the question about going to Ha-
vana to do garrison DUTY, but after
little discussion of the question it was
dropped. and another officer wanted to
know how many were willing to stay
in the government service for time.
Every officer signified that he was will
