TUPELO, Miss, June ga railway ac-
cident occurred at this place at $40
O'Clock this afternoon in which four SOL
diers lost their lives and others received
fatal injuries. Everything was done to
relieve the wounded by the local physi-
clans and citizens, who were soon upon
the scene. This afternoon Col. Torrey' S
regiment of rough riders from Cheyenne,
Wyo., reached this place via Kansas City,
Memphis & Birmingham railroad. The
first section had stopped to take water
and had whstled to start on when the
second section rounded the sharp curve
in the track just before the town is
of the first section was the sleeper Sc
ville,' containing Col. Torrey and his
regimental staff. This car was complete

inmate

not seriously.
The chief fatalities occurred in a coach
which stood in the center of the first sec
ton, which carried Troop c, from Lara

escoped and the soldiers within were

in this train few were hurt, and none dam
gerously. Action on the part of the SOL
diers was immediate to save their imper-
filed comrades, and with axes and ropes
and buckets of water they worked like de-
mons, tearing away the wreckage to get
at the wounded and dead and quench the
fire which had started in the sleeper Sc

OFF FOR THE PHILIPPINES.
Four Thousand Men Embarked at
San Francisco.
Great Crowds Saw the Troops Go
on Board the Ships, and the Men
Were Ladened With Flowers

SAN FRANCISCO, June 26.-Four thou
sand men, comprising the third expedition
to the Philippine islands, embarked early
this afternoon, and soldiers now swarm IN
the holds and upon the decks OF the
steamers Ohio Indiana, City Of Para ana
Morgan City.
Tomorrow the steamer Valencia Will re-
ceive her complement of the military, and
these five transports, bearing the bulk of
the expeditionary force, will probably sail
tomorrow afternoon, to be followed on
Wednesday by the steamer Newport upon
which Gen. Merritt is expected to depart.
Camp Merritt presented a busy scene
this morning During the morning hours
CARLOADS UPON CARLOADS
Of people were landed near the regimental
camps, and it is safe to say at least 5000
people visited the camp before orders to
march were given Very few Of the visit
ors to the camp went out empty handed.
Many were the packages containing lit
tie necessities and delicacies packed up
with the luggage of the departing troops.
Many of them who had not received
comfort bags were supplied with this
little necessity to healthful soldier life
this morning, and the absolutely neces-
sary abdominal bandage was furnished
those of the departing men who had not
received them. Bouquets of beautiful
California flowers were distributed among
the men in large quantities and many rifle
barrels were made pleasantly heavier by
floral decorations.
Shortly after II o'clock the
SOUNDING OF BUGLES
announced to the civilians and soldiers
alike that the time for parting had come
and the soldiers must form for march to
the water front, where the transports
awaited them.
Along the entire line of the fve-mile
march an escort of police was obliged to
force back the throngs of people to make
a narrow lane for the progress Of the de-
parting companies. The soldiers were
cheered at every step. good-byes and good
wishes were momentarily shouted hand

It is Certain to Drag Through Another
Week.
The House Ready to Adjourn. But
Senators Prefer to Keep on Talk
ing, and the End is by No Means
in Sight The Opposition to An
nexation Making q. Stiff Fight.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-Nothing of
Importance is likely to come before the
House this week. Conference reports up
on the sundry civil, Indian and District
Of Columbia appropriation bills probably
will be submitted and the conference re-
pert upon the bankruptcy measure, which
the Senate has adopted, will be consid-
cred Its adoption by the House is APP
parenuy assured. Mr.. Hull. from the
Committee on Military Affairs. will insist
upon consideration of number of bills
made necessary by war demands, notably
one TO increase the force of the ordnance
department The situation in the House
is such that final adjournment could be
reached easily within very few days
should the Senate dispose of the Hawaiian
resolutions. Henceforth, therefore, the
programme in the House must be largely
one of waiting upon the Senate's con-
elusion respecting annexation.

morS floating about the capitol that a
Vote will be reached or an agreement for

the week but no confirmation of them

Side of the controversy. In the language
OF Senator'S Jones and Davis they appear
10 be 'illusory." The proceedings late
saturday afternoon and the admission of
senators who oppose annexation indicate
quite clearly their purpose to resort to
a'atory tactics. while the appearances on
the other side are that there will be more
pressure brought to secure a vote.

Say the Nation Has Been Abandoned by
Europe.
Madrid, June 25.-4 p. m.-The cab
met held long session to-day for the
purpose of devising national defenses.
Senior Sagasta, the premier. endeavored
to persuade his colleagues to defer the
consideration Of domestic questions.
Changes in the ministry we're discussed.
The tone Of the newspaper press is
respondent, and many journals bemoan
the fact that the powers have aban-
doned Spain while she is defending
their cause They say that France,
having received commercial conces-
sions from Washington, remains indif-
ferent, while Germany keeps in the
background and Russo uses Span as
a cats paw in her diplomacy. Spain
must in no case, the papers declare,
accept the Intervention Of Europe. 1t
would be better to treat directly with
the enemy.
1t is hoped in official circles that
the Spanish forces will be able to de-
fend Santiago until Gen. Pando's re-
Inducements arrive there by forced
marches. The Americans are advanc-
ing in three columns, via Alcares, Fir
mega and Juragua, fianked by insur-
gents, in order to force the Spanish
positions at Sevilla and Granhema.

added as he stated in the Senate yester-
day, that he was willing to fix a day
next session for VOTE but that he would
not agree to vote during the present ses-
sion. He said that in case an effort was
made to extend the daily sessions into
the evenings the friends of the resolu-
a continuous quorum.
Senator Davis, who is managing the
contest for the annexationists, said that
he would insist upon II o'clock sessions,
and he also expressed his opinion that it
would be necessary to extend the daily
meetings into the evening. 1--WE have
demonstrated our ability 10 maintain a
quorum he said, land we have album
dant assurance of the willingness of SEN
ators to remain here indefinitely to insure
the enactment of this legislation. Conse-
quently we do not find it necessary to ac-
cede to the proposition to let the matter
go over until next session with day
fixed for vote"
THE OPPOSITION
count upon the appropriation bills con-
Stunning considerable time next week.
There is general consent that the confer
ence report on the Indian appropriation
bill shall be taken up Monday and it shall
be followed by the general deficiency bill.
The anneXationsts proceed upon the the
DRY that with the appropriation bills out
of the way and nothing standing in the
way of adjournment except the Hawaiian
resolution it will be far easier to secure
a vote, while the anti-anneXationists well
come introduction of these conference re-
ports as affording new subjects for consid-
Grafton.
The opposition have received
CONSIDERABLE ENCOURAGEMENT
from the return of Senator Allen. of Ne
braska, from his home from the recovery
of Senator Caffery from an illness which
threatened to interfere with his capacity
for speech making, and from the fact that
Senator Butler has manifested a willing
ness to alter his determination not to
speak. All three have now given assur-
ance that they may be counted upon for
speeches. and all are capable of making
'long talks" Senator White and Senator
Pettigrew also expect to continue at con-

are expected from Messrs. Clay. Tillman.

AN OLD MOUND EXAMINED.
Special to the Register

MORGANTOWN w. Va. June 26.-One
of the many mounds on Cheat Neck, near
here. has been opened and inspected by
party of citizens from this place. The
mound was found to have been partly
constructed of stones, rising in a conical
shape, and was covered with a heavy
layer of moss and wild flowers. The CEN
ter of the mound was reached after con-
siderable trouble, where two skeletons
were found in fair state of preservation.
both being of gigantic stature and build
When the men were in full life they
must have been at least twelve feet high,
and possessed of enormous strength, as
the size of the bones of the skeletons
would indicate. With the exception of
the enormous skulls which were partly
crumbled and decayed, the skeletons were
in a perfect state of preservation.

flags were waved, flowers were thrown,
and every where emotion was visible, as
when the First California regiment Of
San Francisco boys marched away.
When the triumphal march ended, the
soldiers were taken on board their re-
spectve transports. They were given Q
tremendous ovation by thousands of citi-
zens, who swarmed on and around the
wharves. 1t was an emotional as well as
a physical relief when the emba rkation
was an accomplished fact.

Ralph S. Johnston, of Kansas

bicycle trick riding before an adj

performance was really wonderful
and embraced all the intricate acts
which trick riders have in common,
with many which were out of the
ordinary. His chief feat, and one
which he claimed was unparalleled,
was to jump his wheel over the
PROSTATE forms of two boys while
riding at full speed.
Mr.. Johnston travels about the
country giving these exhibitions
and is maintained by the collec-

performance.
