Chicago. sept. 22.-The dead body OF
Jennie Hickey, a l3-year-old school girl,
was found dead on the breakwatcr at
the foot Of Tharty sixth street yester-
day. She had been murdered, her
skull having been beaten in. Thomas
Rutledgc, 10 years old, was arrested
late last night. Although he denies
having known the girl or being in any
way concerned in the crime, there is
an exceedingly strong case of circum-
stantial evidence against him. The po-
lice are confident that he enticed the
girl away, murdered her some time
during Tuesday night, a,,1 in the morn
ing threw her body on tlir breaEwater,
with the idea of conveying the 3u.pr 8
sion of suicide.

Cambon May BE transferred to Europe

cannon MAY he transferred 10 Europe
Washington. Sept. 22.-The report
from Washington that Ambassador
Cambon would be transferred to Wen
ma is not credited at the French embas-
sy here. At the same time, while
transfer to this particular post is said
to be improbable the opinion Is grow
ing in well posted diplomatic quarters
that M. Cambon will before long take
one of the European missions of the
rank Of Rome, Madrid or Constantine
pie. The personal preferences of the
ambassador are toward remaining in
Washington. 1t is rather doubtful
however, whether the ambassador will
wish to bring Nine. Cambon and his
young daughter across the water. Their
associations are all on the other side,
and for these personal reasons M. Cam
bon may find it more agreeable to take
q European post.

DELAWARE
VOLUNTEERS.
Corbin Assures HandyThat
Two BattaliOns Will
be Mustered Out.

Washinaton. Sept, 2l-Thc War De-
partment has decided to muster out two
battalions of the First Delaware Reai.
ment.
The regiment Is now at Camp Meade,
| Mlddletown, Pa. Until sent there 1t was
at Camp Tunnel, at Middletown, Del.
| Colonel Gordon Is its new commanding
! officer.
Congressman L. Irving Handy was in
Washington yesterday urging the muster-
ing out of the members of the First Della
ware, and was assured by Adjutant Gen.
eral Corbin that two tof the three battal-
Ions would be mustered out.
The men who do not desire to remain in
the service will be discharged and those
who do desire to remain will be transfer
red to the other battalion. This will meet
the approval of many people, though there
are some who desire the whole regiment
to be sent away on du'y SO that Delaware
may have the credit of having an Organi-
cation In the service.
Some OF the men interested in military
matters in this city are in favor Of dis.
charging the inen who do not wish to 20
away on duty and filling up the regiment
from tho regiments other states which
have been mustered out of service. Iti
olnimed that the regiments mustered out
at the request of governors Of other states
had enough men in them who are anxious
to go away on garrison duty to fill up the
First Delaware after all had been dis.
charged who wished to be discharged.
The question which is now agitating tho
friends of some Of the officers Of the regi-
ntis, what will become OF them? II
but one battalion Is kept there will be no
use Tor an officer higher than major, and
this will leave Colonel Gordon, Lieutenant
Colonel Stevenson and one of the majors
out of job. Major Townsend Is now the
major. having been appointed
previous to Major Boyd. who was named
but few days ago and SO 1t is supposed
that Major Townsend will command the
battalion which Is kept and the other off,
GERS will be dropped.
-Colopel Gordon was only appointed 90
his present position few days ago and he
will not have very long to bear the honor
given him. He is a lieutenant in the Eigh-
teenth Regular Infantry, and it 10 supposed
that ii his reglmont is broken up that he
will go back to his old command in the
regular army
When the two battalions are mustered
out and returned to Delaware they will
constitute the National Guard of Della
ware Adjutant General Garret J. Hart
said last night. 1t ia not compulsory that
the members of the two battalions shall
serve in the National Guard, General Hart
added, as they Can secure their discharges,
as was customary in the past.
