Broken Up at Once.

New York. Sept. PA dispatch 10 the
Press from Camp wikon says: Under
peremptory orders from General Miles
preparations are being made TO break
up this camp at once by sending home
all the soldiers here. This Is entirely
contrary to what has been the under
standing Of the officers in command.
General Shafter said last week that
5000 or 1000 men would be kept here, at
least until October, and this was sup
posed to have been the order Of Score
tary Alger. An officer said to-day when
General Miles order came that a tele-
gram had been sent him that such an
order was contrary to the orders Cen
eral Alger had given. Never mind
what General Alger said. these are my
orders now" said GENERAL Miles.
General Bates said: My orders are
to send troops away as fast as the
transportation can be arranged"
When asked II these orders did not
conflict with those OF Secretary Alger,
he simply said: They are new orders. A"
In pursuance OF this plan the deten-
ton hospital fs being abandoned. All
the men i'm this hospital 1T to travel are
being sent TO New York On the Shin
necOck and the others are being taken
to the general hospital. The general
hospital is being cleared out as fast as
possible, but there are W or three
hundred cases that cannot be moved
without danger.
Strong frame buildings are now being
erected for the use OF these patients.
These buildings will be finished in two
or three days and the worst cases win
be moved into them. Nearly all are
typhoid cases. to move which would
cause a f1ghtful mortality. Major
Brown said that he thought there would
be about 80 cases which could not be
moved for two or three weeks.
Detroit, Sept. 12.-Concerning the re-
ports from Wikoff that the camp is pre-
pairing to break up under peremptory
new orders from Miles, Alger said:
There is nothing new in hat. Wikoff
from the first was mostly intended as a
detention camp. The purpose from the
first has been TO get the soldiers away
from there as soon as possible. No
change in purpose is Indicated by these
dispatches from my own orders given
before ! left Washington"
Relative to the statement attributed
to Miles TO never mind what AlEer
said.' etc. the secretary positively re-
fused speaking.

round OF their fight at the Greater New
York Athletic club tonight. Creedon was
knocked down by a heavy ~right-hand
punch on the jaw and in falling he twist
cd his right ankle. He was not knocked
out by any means. but the blow received
on the jaw was enough to settle the box
ing aspirations of any man. He CROPPED
around and tried TO regain his feet, while
the referee was counting off the seconds,
but the ankle was too badly injured for
him to stand up straight, and he fell
again and was counted out. Had this not
occurred the fight might have gone on for
many rounds. The spectators were salts
ned that Dan was not taking and left the
house after being informed that the doc
tor attending the Australian had found
the mike badly sprained.

SENATOR BRICE DEAD
He Passed Away in New York
 Yesterday Afternoon.
The End of a Life in Which There Was Crowded Into Brief Space of Time r1any Gigantic Under fakingS.

New York, Dec. 15.-Calvin s.
 Brice, ex-United States senator from Ohio. died in this city this afternoon at
 3:15 D. III. The news of MT. Brice's death was received with surprise and regret. Though he had not been in TO- bust health there was nothing in his apparent condition to excite alarm. Mir Brice was 53 years Of age, though he had been in the public eye so long and so prominently that he was gen. orally believed to be much older.
 He was born in Ohio in 1S45. At the age of 16 after a three years residence at Miami university, he enlisted in the civil war in 1861. He re-enlisted a year la'jer. At the close of that period Of enlistment he re-entered the uni versity, was graduated and after teach ing three months in the public schools at Lima, O., recruited a company of the Ohio. volunteer infantry and continued in the war until it's close. He then studied law and was. admitted Lo prac- tice in 1866. He was a member of the democratic national conventions of 1876, 1884 and 1888, and was made chairman of the national committee in 1889. In 1890 he was elected to the United States senate from Ohio to sue ceed Henry B. Payne. Previous to that he had attained a national reputation as a railroad manager. He was as sue cessful as a statesman as he had been as a politician ard 2 man Of business.
 After his retirement from public life he devoted himself to his gigantic in !terests. His latest enterprise was the organization of the American-Chinese Development company, one of whose objects was the building Of 1000 mile railway from Hankow north to Peking and to connect with the Russian Trans Siberian railway. The estimated cost of the road was $40,000,0 900.

DIAMOND CLUB CRAZE.
It Has Struck the Kansas City Board
 of Trade.

Kansas City, Dec. 15.-The diamond craze has struck the men in the board Of trade building, and the stalwart bulls and bears alike have fallen vic tims to it's seductive powers. They were principally from Missouri, and they were easily shown" a few weeks ago when it was proposed to organize a diamond club, pay in their weekly in stallments, and at the end Of the pro bationary period decorate their shirt bosoms with sparklers. The club was formed and on it's roll of membership are to be seen the names of many old timers. It was a chance quickly taken by many of the clerks and newcomers, and the club gathered in members at great rate. The manager of the club rubbed his hands in glee, and wonder ed how he could make it last.
 The gems the members will draw ou5 are not to be alike; they will be of varying sizes. Some of the men join the club for sixteen weeks and they will draw jewel of proportionate di mansions and fneness. Others are to pay dues for twenty-four weeks and g2t a larger one, while others Of more am- bilious dispositions are to stay a year. and wear a headlight.

VANDERBILT GAS HOLDINGS.
Consolidated Company Will Pay $500
 a Share for all Mutual Stock.

New York, Dec. 15.-Confirming the published announcement of the acqui- sition by Consolidated gas interests of the Vanderbilt holdings or Mutual Gas Light stock, President Stillman of the National City bank said today in a cir cular to stockholders of the Mutual that the bank would purchase any Mu- tua1 stock offered for $500 casa, each share, at any time prior to January ', 1899. The sales are to be on proper transfer in blank of the stock certifi- cates. It appears from MT. Stiilman's S circular that the price paid for the Vanderbilt stock was $500.
 This offer, il was said officially, means simply that investors consider Mutual stock valuable, and that should Consolidated gas interests control the Mutual Gas Light company that would not be consolidated, as the Mutual can not, by the terms Of it's charter, merge with another corporation.
 Russell Sage said today that his Standard Gas company was attending to its business and it's customrs and not engaged in negotiations for eonsol- idation with any company. He added, however, that if satisfactory terms" were offered he would not oppose con- solidation, and-that if a rate war broke out the Standard wuld make a good showing, extensively and defensively.

CHINA,S TROUBLES
The VenganCe of DoWsger Empress
 Against ReformerS.

Pekin, Dee. 15.-The Veng3ance of the dowager empress has len heav- fly cn all reformels ca but the fates have robbed that gfrH old mur- c1less and remorseless natufe the sat Wei has escaped. To enc of her mer- deress of one supreme joy Rang Yu- isfaction of viewing scors of decapi- tated ''rebels" can be but little when she realizes that the head most needed to adorn the heap is wanting. TWO othsr prominent men also got of. Liang Chichcw, the editCr of Chinese Progress, is under the friendly wing of the mikado; Man Chao, late secre- tary of the board of rites, is in hiding, while Rang, the master mind and lead ing spirit of the revolt" is being shalt- cred by the British in Hong Kong The escape Of the latter was little less than miraculous, notwithstanding the warn ing he had received from the emperor. And it is usually a matter Of cCngrat- ulaticn that the members Of his family are also beyond the reach Of the pres ent powers that be. They received timely notices of what had occurred here, and made their escape from Cam ton to Macao, the cid Portuguese sat- clement, thence cn to Hc1g Kong to await Kang's arrival. Luckily for him the British favored his flight, ard from Shanghai, where he boarded the Peninsular and Oriental CT cmpany's steamer Ballarat, he had an escort, the British cruiser Bcnaventurc. It Is rllmored here that he wi prcceed to England to plead in Lcndon the cause of the imprisoned emperor.
 Rang Yu-Wei is a Cantonese and, al though now cnly about forty years of age, has for aI dacaGe past been striv ng to educate the officials of the country to the necessity of a departure frcln the governmental ru.s of centuries. He is one of the ripest Chinese scholars. and unless all prophecies fail will yet be a power in the land.
