READY TO HELP SKATER
Gen. Miles Gathering Reinforcements
for Santiago

WASHINGTON, June 22.--The forward
ing of reinforcements to General Shafter at
Santiago de Cuba has begun, and at 8
o'clock this morning the first body of troops
left Camp Alge- for Newport News, there
TO take transports for Cuba. This was in
accordance with orders issued by Major
General Miles last night, directing the
movement to begin today. The order was
to Major-General Graham, commanding the
Second Army Corps, camped at Falls
Church, and is as follows:
with the approval of the Secretary Of
War, you will detail Brigader-General
Duffeld and one regiment and one battalion
of another regiment Of his command to pro-
coed tomorrow (this) morning by rail to
Newport News, Va, with ten days travel
rations. On his arrival at Newport News,
General Duffield will go on board one of the
auxiliary cruisers now awaiting to trans
port his command to Santiago de Cuba.
Upon arrival at that place they will be re-
ported to Major-General Shafter, COM
manding the United States forces there.
The troops will carry complete camp equip
ments and full supplies of ammunition for
field service. 1t is understood not to sue
coed six horses can be taken on board the
ship. N. A MILES,
"Major-General Commanding"
Other orders will follow. This first move.
ment Is confined to one regiment and one
battalion, as 1t was necessary to divide
General Duffield's command in order to
meet the accommodation Of the transports
Harvard and Yale, the facilities of one be-
ing considerably greater than the. other.
The Thrty-thrd Michigan and one battal-
ion of the Thirty-fourth Michigan were Sc
lected to go first, comprising 1850 men and 50
officers. 1t is expected that they will board
the Harvard. The remaining regiments and
bsttalions Of Gen. Duffleld's command will
leave on Saturday next, taking the Yale.
The entire expedition will then proceed un-
der command of Gen. Duffield, whose brig
ade consists of the Ninth Massachusetts,,
the Thirty-third and Thirty-fourth Michi-
gan and the Third Virginia regiments.
Gen. Duffield had personal conference
with Secretary Long on Tuesday night DUR
ing which the details of this movement were
gone over. The General has the fullest con-
tdence of the Secretary Of War. being a
Detroit man who for years had occupied
close personal relations to Secretary Alger.
Aside from his personal relations, Gen.
Duff1eld is regarded as one of the best equip
ped officers Of the volunteer service. He had
long and distinguished service during the
Civil War, going out with the Ninth Michi-
gan Infantry. of which he became Adjutant

Chamberlain Will Resign

LONDON, June 22.AIt is rumored that
Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, secretary for the
colonies, will shortly resign from the min
istry, in order to assume the leadership
of large number of Unionists in the house
of commosss who are disconnected with the
foreign policy of the government. There
seems to be no doubt that Mr.. Chamber
lain is dissatisfied with his present posi-
ton, and II affairs in the far east and in
West Africa take the turn he expects, his
friends believe that he will not remain in
the cabinet to share the shipwreck of a
policy he never approved. Whatever may
be the outcome, the disquieting idea is I'M
doubtedly prevalent in Conservative cir
Giles that Mr.. Chamberlain contemplates
some sensational move, and the extent to
which this is credited shows how little Mr.,
Chamberlain can count upon Tory conf
dence.

GERMANY IS JEALOUS
READY TO FIGHT FOR THE
PHILIPPINES
BERLIN PRESS ouTsPoKEN
An Alliance With England Would Be
aNotice to All Europe to Keep
Hands On
Associated Press Special Wire


LONDON, June 23-The Berlin corre-
spondent of the Times, commenting on the
continued discussion of the Philippine ques-
ton. says:
There would be storm of Indignation
in the German press If the United States
were to become master of the Philippines
in the German press II the United States
many German politicians anything would
be better than that and they would even
prefer to see the Intervention of several
European powers to protect the life and
property of their subjects from the rebels,
followed by the acquisition of naval sta
ton for each of them.
There is, in fact, a strong inclination
to repeat the Chinese drama at Kiaochau
wherever an opportunity is afforded. Rel
ative!y, to what Germany already possesses
she has everything to gain by such policy
of fair shares all around.
There can, however. be little doubt that
no European power or combination of pow
ers will venture to prevent the United States
and Great Britain from settling the future
of the Philippines conformity, or at least
under the protection of their conjoint naval
forces. Continental opinion would not only
speedily acknowledge the strength Of an
Anglo-Americap naval alliance, but would
be practically unanimous against mourning
the risk of the commercial consequences of
breach with the United States"

THE NEW REGIMENT
Gov. Budd Issues Orders for Rigid
Medical Examination

SAN FRANCISCO, June 22.-The new
regiment of California volunteers. which.
according to the order of Governor Budd
will be taken from the Second and Fifth
regiments Of the national guard, will be
mustered In as rapidly as possible. In
order to save expense, the captains of the
twelve companies have been ordered To
have the physical qualifications of their
men passed upon by local doctors. This
will not do away with the examination OF
the men on arrival at the> Oakland camp,
but will prevent many who are manifestly
disqualified from adding to the expense
Of the assembling of the regiment.
E. s. Heller of this city will be quarter
master of the regiment. 1t will be allowed
only two majors, neither of whom have
yet been chosen. The present captains and
lieutenants will not be changed unless
they fail to pass the necessary examina-
lions.

THE RANK RESTORED
Congress Authorizes the Appointment
of Lieut.. Gen. of the ARMY

WASHINGTON, June 22.-The House
Committee on Military Affairs has agreed
on and favoraby reported joint resolution,
reviving the grade of Lieutenant-Genera in
the army. 1t authorizes the President,
whenever he deems 1t expedient, to appoint
Northumberland to be selected from
those officers in the military service dis
tinguished for courage, skill and ability,
and the limitation in the bill as to the choice
from officers mot below the grade of Major
General being stricken out by the COM
mittee.
The committee disclaim any idea Of hav-
ing any single military commander in view,
and assert the object is to permit the selec-
ton by the President to command the armies
of the United States of one who should have
higher rank than any other officer as essen
tial to efficiency of management.
While Major-General Miles has frequently
been urged for -Generalship,
the members of the committee claim that
his name is no more than suggestion and
that the resolution leaves 1t open to the
President whom he shall appoint. the ap-
pointee, however, being subject to confir-
nation by the Senate.
1t was pointed out by a ranking member
of the committee that If there should be a
battle at Santiago, for instance, in which
General shafter should figure, and he
should perform some heroic work, he would
stand a fair'show for the coveted rank, and
so with other officers on whose career the
selection might depend.
The committee also favorably reported
the House bill, giving to the Adjutant- Gen.
eral of the army, a post now held by Gen
eral Corbin, the rank, pay and allowance Of
Major-General, and joint resolution
amending former one and permitting Col
onel Arson Mills, Third Cavalry, to exer-
else the functions of boundary commissioner

Of the German embassy here, as the latter
was emerging from the embassy on the
evening OF June 18th. was committed for
trial. Trodd made rambling statement to
the effect that the German, American and
French nations had hypnotically Influenced
him and pestered him with accusations. He
was not sure, he said whether the Irish
Americans were not also guilty of accusa-
tions started some years ago by United
States Consul Patrick Collins, who was sup
ported by Germans, the latter being among
his first accusers. As the home office had
refused to assist him, Trodd said he thought
that he would be justified in taking the law
into his own hand, which, he added. would
be lesson to Germans not to interfere with
English.
