NERANGER's FAREWELL.
Thanking Brownsville Hospit-
able People and bidding Them
e Last Goodbye

In taking our departure from the
beautiful little city Of Brownsville,
we should 3e wanting in gratitude
to her citizens should we fail 10 ex-
tend to them our sincere thanks for
the many kind favors they have
bestowed upon us while here. To
say that We appreciate their kind
ness is expressing it only in the
mildest terms. The distant GOODNESS
with which the soldier boy was
treated at Laredo and other towns
along the Mexican border is. want
ing here. Not even San Antonio
with her millions-and which
boasts of being the soldier friend
has ever entertained the blue-coated
lads, as the Lane Rangers were en-
teriained by the good people Of
Brownsville on their arrival at Fit.
Brown.
Why should young man or set of
men be looked down upon, simply
because they don the blue uniform
OF the United .otes Army in an
swer 20 their country's call 10 arms.
1t is true that in recruiting our vol
unteer army, in many instances,
boys were enlisted whose only aim
in life was to get something 10 eat
| and to wear and who, have no re-
spect for themselves on their COM
rades But happily tI.s majority of
our either soldiers are from better
class. Fhey are men who left lucra-
tive portions at home and entered the
army from a sense OF duty. IL DO
ing so they were thrown among the
class above described and the pub
lie mind unhestia.ingly passes
sweeping verdict upon the whole,
and classes the soldier boys as
set of very tough fellows.
Though the fortunes of war did NOT
lead Us acroos the waters to a San
tiago or an Ell Caney, we showed our
Willingness to 20 by offering our
services to the government uncon-
ditionallY, but those who sit in cush-
ioned chairs under our national cap
i,aPs dome at Washington did not
choose TO send us to Cuba or Porto
Rico, hence we were robbed Of all
the honor and glory-if Killing
Spaniards can be called such-that
was gained by our arms in the Span
ish-American war.
And row as the Lane Rangers 90
forth from Brownsville, we feel that
we are indeed parting with friends,
and in after years when old Father
Time has bent low the now straight
figure OF these boysin blue, perhaps
their memory will love to
revert to the past and they
will call to mind the days
spent on the Rio Grande.
They will remember the long, no.,
dusty march from Laredo to Fort
Brown, and especially the last stage
OF that march, which was accom-
plished meath silyery moon. And
then they will recall the brightest
spot in this aged memory, which
will be that which clusters around
the little city of Orange Blossoms
on the banks Of the old RIO Gran:le.
In behalf OF the officers OF Troop
II, and in behalf also OF the men
who serve under them, we bid you
last goodbye.

MERRITT AND HE FELlPENOS.

 bIe Of SsIf Government

London, Nov. 16.-General Wesley Merritt, |. g. A., who is stiII Fl this city, has read with a great deal of in terest a long letter of complaint against American officials in the Phil ippine islands addressed by the so- called Filipino junta of Hong Kong to President Mckinley and to the people.
 Discussing the Filipinos, the Amer. jean general refers to them as "chil- dren" and says it would be impossible to establish an American government in the islands. He adds they must have some form of colonial govern ment similar to the British colonial governments. Regarding the com plaints Of the F'ilipinos, the general said: Ut was impossible to recognize the insurgents and l made it a point not to do so, as I knew it would lead to complications. Admiral Dewey af- ter my arrival pursued the same course. What was done bsfoye is not for me to comment on. I purposely did not rec 0gnize Aguinaldo or his troops nor did l use them in any way. Aguinaldo did net ask to see me until ten days after my arrival. After that was too much occupied to see him."

 Van Buren, who entered the White House in 1887 with Q democratic house
 in the first term, was confronted in the second half with 9 house 50 closely divided that whig speaker was finally chosen. The whig party, which con- trollsd the house, elected simultaneous ly with Harrison and Tyler lost con- trol O. hat body in the second congress of that presidential term. Polk, demo- cr2t, had q democrd.ic house in his first congress, but the whigs controlled i. in the second. The TaylOr-Filmore Whig administration found democratic con- trol in the house during bCIh Of it's congresses.

Buchanan. democrat, had similar experience. the house Of representatives in his first congress be- ing democratic, and the second repub- lican.
 From 1861, the date Of Lincoln's inauguration, until January, 1871, the house did not certain full representa- ton of the entire number of states, but in the midst Of President Grants sec ond term, normal conditions having been resumed, he found himself con- fronted by a house controlled hy the opposition party.

The Garfeld-ATthur a0minlStra- ton had the cooperation Of 3 repub- ilcan house during tho first half of tho term, but democratic control in the sec ond half Cleveland, democrat, in his first term had the cooperation of the democratic party in the house in both congresses, but failed to control the senate in eith5r.

A MOVEMENT OF TROOPS
Ten Regiments of Regulars 10 be
 Sent Abroad.

Washington. Nov. 16.-There has been remarkable activity about the war department for several days in the way of preparing troops for service in lands beyond the United States. An order has been issued, directing at least ten regiments Of the regular army now stationed in northwestern forts and posts to hold themselves in readi- ness for immediate transportation and service in tropical climates. Most of these regiments were sent into north ern and western points a. few weeks ago for TecuperatiOn after their Cuban campaign. While holding themselves in readiness for service the regiments will be recruited to their full strength
 It is believed that an early movement to Cuba is intended somewhat sooner than has been generally believed here tofore. Another belief entertained is that the United States government de sires to be in 6 position to meet any conditions that may grow out of the pending peace negotiations and to be n readiness to resume hostilities if Spain refuses to accept the terms of the American peace commissioners offer. In this connection the intirnation has got about that during the delay which has occurred Spain has been able to form some sort Of coalition with Flu ropean powers to back up the preten- sions she has been making in the ne- gOti3tiOnS

EXlLES GOING HOFlE.
Cubans Released From Ceufd Dsnai
 Settlement Sail for Havana.

New York, Nov 1G-The steamship Saratoga of the Ward line, which sailed at 1 o'clOcy for Santiago and other Gu ban ports, carried the last of the Span ish political prisoners who landed here from Ceuta last week. Twelve Of the company sailed from here yesterday on the Seneca for Havana. The men were members of 2 colony of more than 1000 Cubans, who were arrested without ap- parent cause, or from some petty spite of Spanish officials. Late last year more than 900 O. the men were pardon ed by Spain, but no provisions W5re made to transport them back to Cuba. In February 10000 pesetas ($4 ,000) was appropriated by the Spanish govern meHt to transpO-E the Del back 70 Cuba. but the money fell into the peek cts Of Spanish officials, and a month or two ago the authorities a1 Ceuta told the men thG. if they could raise the money to pay their transportation to Algeciras they would De sent back to Cuba on a transport.
 Seventeen men managed to secure money enough between ,hsm, but when they reached Algeciras. they found hat they had been deiUded, and that the Spanish government intended to fleece them further by charging them an eXOrbitans sum of transpoI tation from that port to Havana. They wers without money and went directly to the United States consulate in Gibraltar and appealed to HOratio SpT2gue, the consul. The prisoners saIa he fed them, gavs them clothing, and finally secured permission from the staSe de- partment to send them to the United States at the expense of this govern ment. They arrivsd here last week, but owing to a misunderStanding be- tween the officials Of the treasury d3- partment and the sea,e department the men were not allowed to r5main ia the barge office until arrangements could bemade to send them to Cuba. Tomas Estrada Palma, The representative 02 gbe Cubans in this city, then decided to send them home st his own expense
 The ex-prisoncrs were Oyerj0yed at the prospect of returning once more to their homes and friends, and seemed unable to understand that Spanish misrule and tyranny had been forever banisbed from their unhappy island. They told pitifuI stories CT their suf- feTings and ill-treaiment while pris- oncrs i'll Ceuta. They were made to quarry stone from sunrise until long after sEnGOWn. and were hitched to carts and driven about and fed cn scanty rations. The Spanish soldiers detailed at the colony bitched six men to :: cart. and when t. had been filled with stone they were driven from tha quarry Dits to tha wharVes, several miles distant, hauling the cart over rough roads and up heavy incline.

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
Spain'S Reply Submitted to inc
 American Commissioners.

Paris, Nov. 16.-The meeting today of the Spanish and American commits sioners began at 2:15 and ended at 3 p. m. The Spanish commissioners pre- sented long document in answer to the American argument which was submitted last week. By mutual con- sent the memoraEd of today was handed to the Americans without being read and the meeting adjourned to Sat urday next.
 The Spanish communication will be translated this evening and it's con tents will oe discussed by the United States commissioners tomorrow at the usual daily session. The Spaniards in l their communication today reaffrmed the position which they assumed against the discussion he-s of Spain's Philippine sovereignty. They insist that the words shall determine the control, disposition and government Of the Philippines" in article 3, of the peace protocol, do not warrant any reference to Spain's withdrawal from the Philippines except on her own terms, and therefore the Spaniards pro- pose arbitration on construction to be placed on the words control, disposition and government"
 THERE WILL BE ANOTHER.
 Madrid, Nov 16.-The minister of foreign affairs, Duke Almodovar dsl Rio, has received dispatches from the Spanish peace commissioners now in Paris indicating that today's meeting Of the joint commissioners will not be the last The commissioners, it is added, have received additional in structions to defend Spains rights in the Philippines.
 NO HOPE FOR SPAIN.
 Paris, Nov. 16.-The Journal today, referring to the peace negotiations, says: we think the extravagant de- mands of the United States have made the discussion almost impossible be- tween that country and Spain. Noth- ing but submission on Spain's part seems possible. As the rumored in tervention of the German emperor is myth Spain should reconcile he-self to the inevitable and set herself about preparing for future struggles.
