General F'itz Lee, the hero of Habana,
will lead his command, the Seventh Army
Corps, in which are two Ohio regi-
ments, the Third and the Fifth Volun-
teers, to Porto Rico for the conquest OF
that island, and after that is accom-

Governor Of the island by President Nc
Kinley. The news, which is authoritative,
reached here to-day from Tampa, Fla,
where the two Ohio regiments are now
encamped. They are to be moved at once
to Jacksonville, Fla, where Lees COM
mand is mobiliZed. Additional weight Is
given 20 the statement OF the plan for
Lee by the fact that Jacksonville has
been selected for this concentration. Be-
ing on the east coast, 1t is admirably
located geographically for the embarka-
tion OF the troops for Porto Rico. No
Information is given as to how soon the
expedition will start, but the hasty mobili-

ance Department three months, is now
completed, and the report filed. The an
nual statement of December 81, 1881, is
verified, and the difference in invested and
cash assets, as valued by the examiners
and the association, is less than five
sixths OF per cent. 1t is found that the
present reserve fund has been accumu-
lated by and belongs to the later classes
OF members, and that a reapportionment
of rates was necessary on the older class
es, TO make this portion OF the member
ship self-sustaining, as between premiums
and death losses"
The report commends the system or
book keeping, declares the association
solvent. and in the matter OF payment OF
death-ciaims, says that the association
pays in full every death-ciaim that Is
proper charge upon the mortuary funds
and that, I'm every case OF settlement or
compromise the character OF the claim
has been such as 10 make IL the duty OF
the management TO protect the members

u slight advance some tickeGs to
partially offset the loss (Of l cent

must produce material reduction in
the roads revenue, but there can be
little doubt that the traffic will in

most easily increased by reduction of
the price. Just how much the Onta-
