Official Attention Now Turned to Mobilization, Transportation and
 Subsistence.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

 Washington, May 3.
 According to advices heretofore re- ceived by Adiutant- General Corbin. the mastering of the soldiers of the volun- teer army was to have begun in most of the States to-day. As soon as this formality is accomplished they become regular United States troops, avail able for any service which the Presi- dent may call upon them to perform. Up to the close of office hours, however, reports on that subject had been re- ceived only from Massachusetts and Arizona.
 With the limited force in charge of this work at the various rendezvous points the mastering necessarily will take from two days to ten or more, ac- cording to the size of the States quotas. One regiment a day is consid cred very fair progress. The officials are now giving their attention to ques- tions of mobilization, transportation and subsistence, and by the time the soldiers are ready to move these ques- tions will have been settled
 Secretary Alger to-day directed that an amendment be made to the army regulations which will require that during the time of war all officers of the army and navy shall wear the uni- form of their rank at the places where they may be stationed. This change

General Wheeler was one of the Confederacy's most darlng cavalry leaders. and it is one or the queer things brought about by time that he should now be appointed major general of United States volunteers on the same day that a like honor IS con ferred upon General James H. Wilson, against whom he fought more than once during the Civil War.
 General William J. Sewell is an Irishman by birth, and came to Amer ica when only Il years old. When the Civil War broke out he was mustered into the United States service as cap tain of the Fifth New Jersey Volun- teers.

Indications That It Will Exceed the Required Speed of Twenty-Six
 Knots an Hour.

SEATTLE, May 3.-The builders preliminary test of the United States torpedo boat Rowan was had to-day. The boat was in temporary command of Naval Constructor Lawrence Spear. For two hours the long, low, knife-like hull cut the waters of Puget Sound, leaving scarcely a ripple in its wake. The machinery worked satisfactorily and no doubt is felt as to the boats capability of making more than the re- quired 26 knots an hour. The official trial trip will be made in about two weeks, after which the Rowan will be ready to do Government service

 When Cochrane concluded, Bailey (D.) of Texas was recognized. He regretted, he said the speeches of the afternoon as likely to be misconstrued. There has been a tendency, if not an effort, to magnify the differences in the Democratic ranks. The record showed that upon all votes up to the last upon the revenue bill, aA Democrats had voted together, and when the final vote, trying to all, came, but five or six Democrats, accustomed to stand together, had respectfully. but con- scientiously voted for the bill and against the other Democrats.

A dispatch from Captain-G General Blanc,
says:
"Cervera's squadron, at II o'clock OF
Sunday morning. broke the center of tn,
line of the American feet and proceeded a
full steam In a westerly direction"
The Spanish Minister Of War, Seno

caria and Maria.
Noon: Not one of the official dispatches
received from Cuba up to this hour make
mention Of the destruction of Admiral
Cervera's squadron. Consequently the Am
erican accounts of the battle cause i'm
mense surprise and sensation. though they
are discredited by the Spanish officials.
Everyone is anxiously awaiting news OF
todays expected bombardment of Santiago
de Cuba and it is anticipated that the fight
ing will result in appalling bloodshed. The
Spanards doubt whether the Americans
even if they destroy the city, will succeed
in penetrating into it as their losses are con-
fidently expected to be enormous, since the
arrival of the Spanish reinforcements al
Santiago will cause more tenacious defense
than would otherwise be the case.
There is much comment here over the
news of the departure Of the foreign war
ships from Manila at the moment of the ar
rival there Of the American reinforcements.
Only two German. two French and four
British warships now remain at Manila and
people are asking II international politics
have undergone change and il the Amer
leans are to be given free hand in the Phil
ippne Islands.
The news received here that the British
Consul at Hong Kong has sent a dispatch
boat to Manila for the purpose Of informing
Rear-Admiral Dewey of the fact that Ad-
miral Camara's squadron has traversed the
Suez canal. is much commented upon and
the newspapers assert that the Egyptian and
English authorities purposely placed OBJ
stacles in the way OF Admiral Camara's
departure in order to delay his arrival at
Manila as long as possible, adding that the
British have more scruples in maintaining
the neutrality of the Suez canal than they
had when they allowed a steamer to leave
Hong Kong loaded with arms for Manila
insurgents.

A Mountain Of Gold

SAN FRANCISCO, July 6.-The little
schooner Free Trade, which, under COM
mand of Capt. Moore, sailed from here
six months ago in search of a mythical
mountain of gold, has returned to port
The money for the voyage was contributed
by H. Talbot Watson and several other
wealthy Englishmen. who were ultimately
deserted on Kodiak island, Capt. Moore
getting away with the vessel, which re-
manned in his name. Moore is at Tillamook
and the schooner will probably be libeled
for the seamen's wages.
