Idaho Volunteers It San Francisco.

A dispatch from San Francisco
May ed, says:
To-day's arrivals Of troops in
cluded two battalions of the FRS,
regiment of Idaho United States
volunteers. They were received by
the ladies of the Red Cross society.
Many of the men bad no uniforms,
some Of them were poorly dressed,
but all of them looked we'll. The
fact 10, that but two companies OF
the eight, that is to say, 1853 men
out of 672. are fully equipped, and
only about 210 have Springfield
rifles, the others being unarmed.
Still, though short of the outward
visible signs of soldiers. they have
plenty of tents, good supply of
blankets and enough to eat. Before
marching to Camp Richmond, the
me2 were presented with fruit and
flowers galore.
Tonight there are 2 ,436 enlisted
soldiers in this city. When the first
embarkation takes place tomorrow
morning it is not likely that the
number of soldiers within the city
will exceed the present total.
All the soldiers are impatient to
start for Manila, and their ardor
does not seem to be abated by the
bard work of camp life. Drilling
at both camps is almost incessant,
and a more willing lot of soldiers
was never seen.

golden eagles, one with spread of
seven feet from tip to tip, q baby

DESPERATE HOPE.
Recovery Of the Philippines the Dream o,
Spain.

Recovery OF the Philippines the Dream of
Spain.
A special cablegram to the ST..
Louis Globe Democrat May 20 says !:
Rapid steps are being taken to forward
re-enforcements to the Philippine Islands.
Far from their being any reluctance, men
are volunteering on every side, and the
clergy In particular, are busiIy engaged
in securing recruits. especially from the
rural districts for service in the islands
The clergy is far more interested in the
retention Of the Philippine Islands by
Spain. than in the fate of the Antilles,
for not only are numerous religious orders
and religious institutions here, but like
wise the Church of Spain itself, are in
receipts of immense revenues from estates
which they own in the Philippine Islands,
revenues which would be entirely lost to
the Church of Spain in the event Of the
conquest of the islands by the Americans.
Consequently the clergy, who are indif-
ferent with regard to the West Indies,
will strain all their resources to help the
government to keep the Philippines, no
matter at what cost. Moreover, the
clergy in this country, and especially the
churches aud religious institutions, are
possessed of immense wealth, and this
will be placed at the disposal Of the gov
eminent, with no unsparlng hand, in order
to supply the means of driving the Amer
leans out of the Philippines.
One thing perfectly certain is that
Spain will make far more desperate
fight to keep the Philippines than to keep
either Cuba or Porto Rico; for, as the
Antilles have for long time past consti
tuted drain upon the resources of the
mother country, the Philippines, in spite
of the frequent instructions, have always
been a source of considerable revenue,
not alone to the church, but likewise to
the government, aud also to Spanish trade
and industries.
