Camp Alger, Va, July 5.-The chief
interest at Camp Alger today was GEN.
tered in the departure of the Second
brigade under the command of General
Garretson, and consisting of the Sixth
Massachusetts,, Eighth Ohio and Sixth
Illinois. Their destination is Santiago
The Massachusetts, and Illinois troops
went to Charleston, S. c., where trans
ports are awaiting them. The Ohio
ians went to New York, whence they
will so to Santiago on the cruiser ST.
Paul
The Yale and Harvard will be used
to transport the troops from Charles
ton. The outgoing soldiers were given
a rousing farewell by the men who re-
manned behind.
The Massachusetts was the first regi-
ment to arrive at the Dunn Loring rail-
road station, and they were compelled
to wait there for i've hours, owing to
the fact that proper facilities had not
been made for their transportation.
Camp Alger was struck by heavy
rain storm last night, and the atmos-
phere today is much more bearable
than for the rast few days.
An order was received by Majoc
Stunkard in charge of the Second divi-
sion hospital, notifying him to have
the First brigade hospital corps ready
TO take the road at a moments notice.
(Signed) Col. Girard.
No one at the Second division head
quarters seem to know anything about
1t. 1t is not believed that they are
going on a practice march, as they
would have no one to practice on and
it would deprive a whole brigade of
their services. 7. j. Duffy.

MADRID, June ia reporter has had an In
terview with Sehor Emilio CASTELAR, in the prov
incc Of Alicante. whero the former Republican
leader is now sojourning. Sehor CASTELAR, at the
outset said that his only desire was to spend tho
remainder of his life in literary work.
In reply to question upon tho subject of In
tervontion he said that he considered the Pope
hostile to Spain in having proposed the French
Ambassador as an Intermediary. President
McKinley's bases OF peace. he said. were doc
laration OF Cuban independence. the cession Of
Porto Rico and the pledEng of the Philippines
to the United States pending the payment Of an
enormous indemnity by Spain.
Sehor CASTELAR, considers that tho enormous
maritime superiority Of the Americans has been
established. but expects that there will be de-
cisive Spanish land victories in Cuba. He
thinks that tho political power of tbe friars In
the Philippines should be gradually diminished.

touched. He did not think. he said. that his in
tcrfcrence in public affairs would do any good.

Gladstone in that statesman's declining years.
and cited the dismissal OF Prince Bismarck by Q
youth wearing the German crown.
The interviewer called his attention to the
later career Of NJ. Thiers.
Senor Castelar, smiled and said: II love Spain
moro than Theirs loved Franco. Given similar
circumstances would act like Theirs. but my
Intervention now would only excite the jealousy
Of other Republican leaders. while others would
! denounce me as using my country's misfortunea
| for my personal ambition"
| In reply to n question by tho interviewer as
! to what in his opinion would be the end of the
conflict, Senior CASTELAR, said: present events
/ are so strange and the circumstances SO contra
| dictory. 1t would be impossible to prophecy.
| Who could foreteu that the American democ.
| racy, tho nation of Washington, the hero of lib
erty; the nation OF Lincoln. the martyr to a sub

salient test of the points Of the present war is

mover saw such a scene as 1t did last night when
for three hours regulars from Fort Monroe and
volunteers from the Maryland battalion sta
toned at Old Point struggled in the streets for

mon in the fight. which was the result Of bad
feeling between tho regulars and volunteers
ever since the Maryland boys have been en-
camped at Old Point.
The regulars INDUCED In criticisms of the
Marylanders. who announced their intention of
getting even. The gauntlet thus thrown down
was taken up by the regulars. Last night the
men from Maryland learned that their enemies
wero in q saloon in Phpbus. They Immediately
attacked the building. huring stones and bricks
through the windows and doors. One Of the
women inmates of the house was struck in the
mouth by q beer bottle. The regulars defended
themselves as best they could by hurling empty
beer bottles Mt their aRsailants.
After tho battle had ragged with varying sue
cess for half an hour there was q lull and the
lars followed them and tho battle ragged again.
During tho interval the civil authorities had
notified the commandant OF the fort that a riot
was in progress. and company OF regulars
from the fort and a company OF volunteers un-

the scene. Twenty or thirty OF the belligerents
were captured and taken to tho guardhouse
