VIRGINIA TROOPS IN CAMP.

From now on military discipline will
be strictly enforced at Camp Lee,
Richmond. Col. J. c. Baker, the con-
mandant of the Second Regiment and
senior colonel Of the Virginia troops,
reached the fair grounds yesterday
morning and at once took charge
Of the camp. Regular guard duty
about the camp was promptly estab-
lished, and beginning with to-day the
regular calls will be sounded daily.
Lieut.. Shanks, .. S. A., yesterday
mustered into the United States ser
vice the Fitz Lee Ridsa, Company j.,
Third Regiment, and the West Au-
gusta Guards, Company Z, Second
Regiment, and both companies were q.
once ordered under cover.
Company G, Third Regiment, OF Pc
tersburg. Captain Nichols commanding,
will likely be ordered to report at
Camp Lee this evening, when the Suf-
folk company is expected to reach
Richmond.
Gov. Tyler has Issued an order by
which Company L, Of Portsmouth,
Capt. E. W. Owens commanding, is to
be transferred from the Second to the
Fourth Regiment, where they will
probably be assigned to take the place
of one of the Suffolk companies. By
this change all the tidewater compa'
MES will be in the same regiment.
Company F, Third Regiment, iufan
try. of Alexandra, and Company z,
of Fredericksburg, from the same reg
iment, reported at Camp Lee this even
ing.
Discussion OF the probability of Gen.
eral Male assuming command OF the
Third Regiment was fruitful theme
among the members of the Third COM
panies in Richmond yesterday. No
body wants to lose Colonel Gaines, but
everybody is anxious to have General
Male. Il is believed that he will lead
the regiment. But the Virginia Volun-
teers have not yet given up hope of his
being made brigadier. A captain who
has not YET been mustered in said yester,
day that an effort would be made to se-
cure concert of action on lhe part Of Of
fcers and men of the Third and Fourth,
who have not yet entered the national
service, to have a brigade formed Of
those regiments and one from Mary
land, with General Male in command.
OF course, the meu who have been
mustered in cannot take part 10 such
movement, but those who have not en-
tered the national service can do go
with perfect propriety. They will ask
General Males appointment az mat
ter of right, as being only what's due
State which has furnished brigade to
the national government.

Rumors About the Spanish Fleet

LONDON: May 1.-The Star says
Madrid dispatch via Paris throws ir-
teresting light, gathered from 81 ohcial
source, on Admiral Cervera='z move
nents since ne lei: the Cape Verde Is
lands. Il appears that ne headed Tor
s.. Pierre, Miquelon, on the coast OF
NeT Foundlaud, where sealed instruc
tons awaited him. There colliers from
sydney were met and the Spanish feet
coaled. Admiral Cergeras's instructions
then were TO raid Portland, Boston and
Newport, and if Rear Admiral Sampson
DOM bsrded Havana to draw him of.
The news from Manila seems to have
changed the plans. The next proposed
move was to decoy Rear Admiral
Sampson to Porto Rico aud then sail
rapidly for Havana and destroy the few
ships left there. Finally, should Ad-
miral Cerveras on reaching Satiago de
Cuba learn that two American squad
rons were coming to meet him, thus
leaving the sea free, his plan would be
10 avoid them, gail straight for Charles
ton and lombard that city.

SIZE SAVED HER FATHER.-A pecu.
liar case was attempted to be tried al
court on Thursday in Carlisle, Pa.
1t was the case of Commonwealth We.
John T. Moore, who was charged with
q serious crime 1t was alleged that
his daughter, Ella Moore, aged eight
cen, was the victim. She was put on
the stand, and refused 70 testify against
her father. No amount of persuasion
by the court or threats by the lawyers
could get the girl to say one word. The
witness answered no questions, but
simply remained mute. An effort was
made by the district attorney to have
the witness write the answer to the
question "Who is the father of your
child 81 Persistent questioning for fully
an hour failed TO elicit the least re-
spouse from the witness. Every effort
that could legally be used to get at the
facts of the c2se vas made, and the case
went to the jury without testimony of
any kind Whatever. The Jury were
compelled, without any evidence, to
rander verdict of not guilty, and sssess
the county for costs.
