the Florida coast on her last trip with
supplies FOR Gomez and tho cublns sne
carried orders 10 Lieutenant Johnston 10
remove his detachment and return 10 the
United states. The orders were not made
public at the time because the war was
not over az that time and IL was not
deemed prudent 10 allow the Spaniards
10 know that a detachment OF United
States soldiers were about TO take ship
for the United States ana because general
secrecy was maintained regarding expe-
ditions 10 the Cubans until they were ac-
cOmphshed.

THE UNCERTAIN
THIRD VIRGINIA.
General Corbin Says No Orders Have
Been Issued to Muster Them Out
Nor are Any Contemplated.

WAsHINGTONe August 2O.-speciaL-
Adjutant General Corbin said tonight
that no orders had been issued for the
mastering out Of the Third Virginia or
any other Virginia soldiers, and, further,
that no such orders wiuld be issued very
soon.
From his talk there seems 10 be doubt
on the minds OF the officials Of the War
Department as 10 wether or not the
greater part OF the Third wishes TO be
mustered out.
IT, as was suggested at the War De-
partment the other day. Governor Tyler
will request that q poll be made Of the
Third Regiment 70 ascertain the wishes
ot the men. the question can soon be set
tied
It seems impossible 10 get NJ the true
state OF the regiment or the plans Of the
department. as an entirely different story
Is given circulation every day on what
can be regarded as high authority.
