DISPOSITION OF TROOPS.

Chief Reliance at the Outset Placed ON
the Regulars.
WASHINGTON, May Sit is said at
the war department that chief reliance
would be placed at the outset on the
United States regulars, most of whom
are conferred in Florida, and in such
volunteer regiments as are thoroughly
equipped and reasonably we'll seasoned
for service. Although the officials will
not state how many troops are avail.
able for active service, it is roughly
estimated that there are abont %, 900
regulars and $4,000 volunteers at
Tampa. These include II regiments of
regular infantry and ID regiments of
volunteer infantry, - battalions of
artillery and regiments of regular
cavalry. How many of these have
been or will be dispatched to any given
point or to several points is not dis.
closed, as that is part of
The Secret Campaign Plans
of the government. Back Of this force
are other available regiments at Mobile,
New Orleans and other points easily
accessible 10 Tampa. Still further
back is the large volunteer camp at
Chickamauga, comprising about A, 600
infantry, 1000 cavalry and 8 regiments
Of artillery. It is understood to be the
plan-although as to this there is no
precise official statement-to have the
troops at Chickamauga take the place
Of those at Florida ports as fast as the
latter leave for active service, thus
keeping large force always ready for
embarkation from Florida. Aside from
the troops already specified, there are
the $4,000 men at Camp Alger, near
Washing ton, and lesser bodies Of
troops on Long Island and in various
states.

American Warship Signals the Cape

CAPE HAYT1EN, Hayti, May 81. An
American warship has just signalled
the watch station on the mountain
near the entrance of the harbor. 1t is
expected that she has dispatches from
Commodore Schley. There could be
scarcely any other motive for putting
in at this port, and it is surmised that
the American vessel brings importan
information to be cabled to the govern

Crane is a Great Rhynester.

Charles s.. Crane. the general passcn.
ger agent of the Wabash, is quite a poet,
and has written many nice things. Re-
Gently he read the poem on the emusic
of the Wheels" written by e. Il. COyle
for the Baltimore Morning Herald, which
run as follows:
MUSIC OF THE WHEELS.
When you're riding Oh the railroad
At a mile.a-minute crack.
Do you ever note the rhythm
Of the wheels along the track:
Is there any great composer
Of sharps and flats and bars
Can equal in his cadences
The music of the cars?
Whether dashing through the meadow.
Or the tunnels checking CRIME,
You will never hear them falter
From the measured beat of time:
Charging wildly ''mongst the mountains,
Or by the rivers bank,
You will always find them playing
Click-clickety -click-clank.
Every air that has been written
Since the days of wicked Cain
Finds a fit and perfect setting
In the rhythm of the train:
From opera to comic song.
From Patti down to Cline.
You can hum all kinds of ditties
While rushing down the line.
After reading the above Mr.. Crane got
his typewriter in order, and by screwing
up the political lever ground off the fol
lowing:
It's too bad to spoil the story.
Told in cadence sentimental,
But it's not so on the Wabash
With its famous CONTINENTAL
If you are about to travel
Please note the following points,
TIT Wabash track is perfect,
And you can not count the joints.
In its wheels there is no music,
At q mile.a- minute gait;
And of course there Is no rhythm
On a track that's up-to-date.
There is no measured beat of time;
In fact 1t can't be measured.
We beat our rivals every time,
A fact that should be treasured.

The attitude of the Republican party

The attitude of the Republican party
of New Mexico has always been con-
sistent OH the question of the admission
of the territory as a state. We favored
the admission of the territory when the
Democratic party vas united i'll their
opposition against it. We still favor
it's admission, believing that there is no
good and substantial reason for keeping
us out of the Union as a state and be-
lieve that this can best be accomplished
by the election of a delegate to congress
who is in harmony with Republican
politics and principles. Republican
