Regiments to BE and Not to BE Mus
tered Out.
Washington. Sept. 6.-The Fifteenth
Minnesota volunteer infantry has been
ordered to Meadyille, Penn, the new
camp of the Third army corps. The
Twelfth and Fourteenth have been
ordered to the home rendezvous at st.
Paul. and will be mustered out within
sixty days. In reaching this conclusion
the war department has been governed
largely by the wishes of the men. 1t
was the intention at first to keep the
Twelfth in service, and Col. Bobleter
Will be greatly disappointed, for he had
received assurances that his men
would be sent to Cuba. But from the
individual applications for discharges
and the influence of Minnesota con-
gresSmen, Gov. Clough, with others,
deemed it best to muster out the
Twelfth with the Fourteenth. which
has been on the list all along. 1t is I'M
derstood here that the Fifteenth, al
most to a man, desires to be retained.
The other Northwestern regiments to
be mustered out are the Second Wis
consin infantry, Fifteenth Iowa infan-
try. Second Iowa infantry. Fifth Iowa
battery and Sixth Iowa battery.
Those remaining in the service are
the FOrty-ninth Iowa, the FI1ty-nrst
Iowa infantry and the First South Da-
kOta infantry.

himself. After ten hours CONTINENT

New Orleans, Sept. 8. = The govern
ment steamer John l. Meigs was de-
stroyed by an explosion at ST. Philip.
She had aboard Lieut.. Jarvey and a
party engaged in removing the tor
pedOes laid in the Mississippi river
during the beginning of the war. Lieut..
Jarvey had a narrow escape. The
killed are Capt Starr. commander of
the boat; Sergt. John Newman, of the
engineers; Pat Carlos and Ralph ROg-
ers Those wounded were Fritz Koch
and D. B. Reddy. Maj. Quinn, of the
engineer corps, has been advised that
the Meigs was blown up by torpedo
or mine. The engineers had been I'M
able to recover the mines and tOrpe-
does from shore by means of the ca
bles to which they had been attached
owing to the fact that the sand i'll the
river had weighted them down and
caused the cables to part. On this ac-
count a crew was ordered down on the
Meigs to grapple for the mines and
bring them to the surface. The crew
had almost completed the work when
the accident occurred.

sents an increase of over ST., 500, 900 as
compared with the fiscal year proceed
ing. The principal portion of this
marked increase is, Of course, under
the items credited to the war and navy
departments. For the aforementioned
department an increase of over $43,-
100000 is shown, while the expendi-
lures for the navy showed an augmen-
tation of nearly $24,3OO,OO0. These two

The gold whistle and the gold
breast-plate of the dictator of the Phil
ippines suggest trouble. That kind of
man is without thought save as to his
persona! glorificatiop, and his vanity
will have to be eliminated before he
has room in his head for a decent set
of brains So far the dudes of our
army and navy have done excellently,
it being understood that a dude is
man who is not ashamed to dress prop
erly and wear backing on his boots;
but the man of the little whistle will
be apt to foot himself into some folly
for the lack of guardian. However,
it is comforting to reflect that his
pomposity didn't lead him to proclaim
himself with fog-horn.

The following protest, by Rev. j. II.
Croker of Buffalo, against the charge
that the attitude of our country among
the nations is that of Isolation" will
he accepted by many of our readers
The too sweeping declaration is very
we'll controverted. ut seems to me"
said the preacher, that a distinguish
cd American statesman is wrong when
he charges us with isolation. AS a
neople we have been very much abroad
in the world. and in the noblest and
most effectual way. Who have trav-
eled so widely or wisely as Americans?
we have sent great numbers of stu
dents to foreign universities. Thou
sands of devoted missionaries have
cone from our shores to distant lands
We are enricning our life from every
source: we are pouring out our life
and shedding our influence upon every
race and tribe. What greater good
can we do to the world than by these
neacefuI services? We should arrest
orr own development and diminish our
influence by stepping down from this
nedestal and meddling in the affairs Of
distant nations and assuming charge
of savage hordes.
