NO PARADE.
War Department sits Down on Gen
erdl Miles Scheme. MEN to Go
Home at One.

Washington, September 3.-General
Miles and mis- army Of between 1900
and 5,019 volunteers. now en- route 10
this country from Porto REQ, will not
parade in New York city or elsewhere
as body upon their arrival. The Off
cial announcement Of this fact was
made at the War Department to-day.
The trans ports bearing Gen. Miles
and the volunteers are expected to ar
rive eff New York next I tuesday. Ii
was suggested that the troops be or
dered into camp somewhere in the vi
cinity Of New York for few days and
then signalize their departure fer their
State camps by parade through New
York city. The civil authorities OF
New York canvaSsed the situation and
finally suggested that the troops be
encamqed at Forrest Park, between
Brooklyn ard Jamaica
When GOV. Voorhees,, OF New Jersey.
arrived in Washington Yesterday he
proposed to the War Department that
the Porto Rican trCOps De placed il
camp at Sea Girt. the New Jersey
State camp grounds. He renewed this
offer today in a conference With Ad-
jutant General Corbin. He was in
formed that ii had been decided by the
department that The Porto Rican troops
would net be placed in camp at any
point in the East, but would be sent
Immediately to their Stare camps. pre-
paratory to being mustered out Of the
service.
When the transports arrive in New
York harbor they viii be met oy en-
GERS with orders for The troops to pro-
coed directly from their ships to the
trains The officers will have with
them transportation for the entire COM
mand. 1t is likely that the troops viii
tie landed in Jersey City. where. after
being served with hot lunch. they
will board the cars which will be 81

that the full credit of the success of
our arms could be given to General Cor
bin. the military adviser of the Pres
ident, and the Secretary Of War.
That dream has become a nightmare
1t might have been a reality, but for
the fact that General Shafter failed to
make connections in his end of the
situation. General Shatuer weakened
and telegraphed of the defeat and pro-
posed retreat. The entire Dreyfus
scheme ended then. The War Depart
INIT fell down when Shafter went to
nursing his govt instead Of capturing
Santiago.
Then it was that President Mckinley
called upon General Miles for the ex-
ercise Of his military genius. Then it
was, on the third day Of July. that Cen
eral Miles promptly responded and
saved the jeopardized army OF tie

the President saw through the nefari-
Gus scheme and said: General Miles.
issue the necessary orders TO save the
army, with the understanding that you
will command the army without inter-
ference until the close of this war"
Adjutant General Corbin is satisfied
with his present position and ne has
no aspirations for the Lieutenant Gen
eralcy. He is the military adviser of
the President and OF the Secretary OF
War, and he is coed man for that 20
sition. It is largely due to his sage
counsel that the President has tempo
rarily sealed the lips Of the parties to
the controversy. He has the power TO
compel silence on the part Of General
Niles. as well as on the part Of the
men who still occupy the Office OF Sec
rotary of War, and who win hold that
position for several weeks longer.

Washington. September 3.-The War
Department has been reduced to a
peace basis Secretary Alger has gone
to New York TO accompany the Presi-
dent through camp and show him how
perfect are the arrangements for the
health and comfort of the common sol
diers The particular attention Of the
President will not be called to the fact
that General Joe Wheeler has been sys
tematically and persistently at work
bringing order out of chaos.
1t is presumed that General Miles
will raech this city on Tuesday of the
coming week. The writer has received
information this evening which war
rants the prediction that General Miles
will not talk for publication. Presi-
dent Mckinley has taken a positive
stand in the matter. and he will not
permit General Miles nor the Secretary
Of War to carry their disagreements
into the newspapers or further con-
troversies
The credit of this condition of affairs
should be given to Adjutant General
Corbin. the military adviser of the
President, who is now a safe counsel
lor. because he no longer dreams of
advancement to the Lieutenant Gener-
alcy. The war is over and the sue
cess of the army of the United States
cannot be saddled on to the shoulders
Of General Ccrbin At the beginning
of the war there was possibility and
likelihood of General Miles being sup
pressed, inundated and and destroyed,
