Washington, Aug. 4.-After confer
ence at the White House today with
Secretaries Long and Day the presi-
dent had a conference with Secretaries
Long. A1ger and Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Allen at which action was
taken for the prompt transportation of
Gen. Skaters army from Cuba to
Montauk Point, L. I. The conference
occupied a couple of hours and there
was an informal general presentation
of the needs of prompt action and of
the means at hand to effect it. It was
finally concluded that there were suf-

for the purpose. When the meeting
ended it was officially stated that the
number of vessels now there was ade-
quate for the removal of the army. The
dispatch of the troops accordingly will
begin at once.
Another point taken up during the

Sir-In a meeting of the general and
medical officers, called by you at this
place this morning, we were all as
you know unanimous in view of what
should be done with the army. To keep

commanding a division or a brigade will
simply involve the destruction of thou

not shipping practically the entire com
mand north at once
Yellow fever cases are very few in the
cavalry division where I command one
of the two brigades and not one true
case of yellow fever has occurred in
this division, except among the men
sent to the hospital at Siboney. where
they have, I believe, contracted it. But
IN this division there have been /, 500
cases of malarial fever. Not a man
has died from it. but the whole com
nand is so weakened and shattered as
to be ripe for dying like rotten sheep

The school board has done vast
amount of work during the vacation
now drawing so near it's close. The
school property has been put in ex-
cellent order and the main building
was never so attractive as it is just
now. 1t will be an inspiration to
teacher and scholars to engage in
effective work. Not only has the pro-
perty been thoroughly cleaned and
scrubbed, but the walls have been
whitewashed, the woodwork repainted,
new hardwood floors laid in four or
five of the principal rooms, and gen.
eral air of neatness and eleg ance inn
parted to the entire bulldog.
Prof. Stanton's Office has been re-
papered, handsome maple floor laid,
the woodwork painted and vanished,
and in every respect it has been made
inviting. The painting by Messrs.
McWold & Meyers has been we'll
done, and very tasteful and pleasing
effects made in coloring. The floor by
Ingram Bros, are finer than any ever
before laid in this city-the maple be-
ing especially fine.
Patrons of the school should take
occasion to visit the school soon after
it opens and see what the board has
been doing to make it pleasant for the
children. Certainly the scholars will
appreciate it all, and make a special
effort to keep the property at its pres
emit high state of repair and .neatness.

On Trial.

This year the Republican party is
on trial, and the test OF popularity
will be it's record since it came into
power in November, 1896. This will
of necessity bring the Tariff more or
less into the campaign. Attempts will
be made to denounce the Tariff act OF
1897 because a deficit appeared the
first fiscal year after it's enactment.
But the force of this statement will not
be felt when it is recalled that the Will
son Tariff OF 1892 produced in four
wears a deficit OF $500, 600, 600, or $50
GOO, 900 year. When tested by results
popular favor will be with the Repuo-
lican enactment OF 1897 by large
