MORE TROOPS FOR MANILA.
Another Expedition to Start This Week
Gen. Oti. to Take Part In the Ceremony
of Occupying the City of Honolulu.

SAN Francisco, July 12.-This week
will see another exodus of the Ma
Mia forces. The Peru, carrying
troops of the Fourth United States
cavalry, under command of Col. Kel-
logg, and two batteries of sie Sixth
United States artillery, under COM
mand of Maj. Grugan, and the City of
| Pueblo, with the Fourteenth infantry
detachment, will steam out of the har-
| Dor.
Ma. Gen. Otis decides not to wait for
the New York volunteers, but will pro-
coed at once to Honolulu to assist, ac-
cording to his orders, in the ceremo-
mics of occupying the city.
The Fourth cavalry. Sixth artillery
and Fourteenth infantry will have the
privilege of taking part in the cere-
monies. They will remain in Homo
lulu until the other three vessels of
i the fleet of five, destined for the fourth
| expedition, arrive, then the whole
force of the troops, with Maj. Gen
Otis and Brig. Gen. FL. G. Otis, will
proceed to Manila.
The troops for the Rio Janeiro and
st. Paul have not been selected.
The fourth and probably last expedi-
ton to the Philippines will await the
return transports of the first expedi.
ton. the Aust, 'alia, City of Sydney and
Picking.
The Question of Transports
is still somewhat a vexed one. Some
means of transporting the First New
York volunteers. which have been or
dered to garrison Honolulu, will have
to be secured within the next few days,
and the problem is now before the
quartermaster's department. None of
the vessels of the Manila feet will be
detached for this purpose, and it is
thought that one or more small ves-
sells, adaptable for the short trip, can
be chartered. The question will prob
ably be settled before the New York
regiment arrives on Thursday.
Private Dale, of Co. III, South Dako
volunteers, who was accidentally shot
Saturday while cleaning his rifle. will

call his home.
