CREERED OUR FLAG.
Spanish Prisoners of War Paw Tribute tn
Old Glory As They Leave
BrOoklvn For Home

New York, July 25.-Prisoners of war
cheering the flag of their captors was
the unusual sight witnessed at the
Union dock in Brooklyn yesterday. The
sight was all the more significant as
the cheers came from Spanish throats.
The 254 prisoners captured on the
-FOUR prize steamers now in port were
about to sail for home under the Brit
ish flag. They were on board the Hes
peria, of the Anchor line, and Just as
she backed out of the dock one of the
patrol gunboats came by. With one ac-
cord the prisoners raised three mighty
cheers, which startled the people on the
Brooklyn shore and could be heard on
Governors Island. 1t was the best they
could in thanking Uncle Sam for the
kindness lavished on them while they
ere prisoners.
The Hespera left at p. m. bound
Tor Italian ports. She will put the pris-
oners on shore at Gibraltar The pris-
oners were happy lot and their an
pearance showed that they had been
well treated while in enforced idle
ness.
Among the 254 prisoners were six Of
ncers. One of these officers said: "If
our men in the field realized either the
hopelessness Of our cause or the treat.
ment they would get at the hands of
the Americans they would not fight
long. The quickest and easiest way to
reach home Is to surrender I believe
IN fighsing where there is a chance, but /
our piockaded soldiers don't know we
haven't a chance. They can get home
quicker by surrendering, and in the
meantime be well fed and taken care Of.
But they think the Americans will mur-
der them"

lowing from General Shafter: Lieu

turning home. They were on the verge
Of starvation, and have to send them

Little Yellow Fever In Shnfter's Army
Washington, July 25.-A dispatch re-
ceived last night from General Shafter
says that 1856 new cases of fever of all
classes We're reported in his camp be-
fore Santiago Saturday. AS the same
dispatch reports only four deaths-and
none of them from yellow feyer-from
the hundreds of cases of fever known
to exist in camp, the war authorities
are more than ever inclined to the be-
lief that the cases of yellow fever are
of mild type. Previous dispatches
from General Shafter aid the medical
officers Of his corps have indicated the
existence in the camp Of very large
number Of cases of malarial and densue
fever, the latter being peculiar to
the Cuban climate. Some clear cases
of yellow fever are reported, but the
officials say they are few as compared
With those of other fevers.

''Ihe undersigned deem 1t desirable
that a national conference be convened
at an early day to consider the future
foreign policy of the United States. The
war with Spain gives promise of the
overthrow of Spanish power in Cuba,
Porto Rico. the Philippines and other
colonial possessions Of that cnun-
try. The question of what dispo-
s!ticn the United States should make
of these possessions impreSses us cs
being one Of the mcst serious the
American people have had TO consider.
Whether the policy of the fathers
should be adhered to or departed from
is enough to challenge the most seri-
Gus consideration of our abest and
most thoughtful men,"

CHANCES AGAINST GAMBLER.
MASTERING OFFICER REPORTS
HIM UNFIT FOR SERVICE.

Chances Believed to BE Against the
War Department Overlooking His
Disability and Allowing Him to
serve-The Report That There Was
an Understanding That He Would
Not BE Rejected May Yet Prove
True-Changes in Officers of the
New Regiment.
Atlanta Ca, June est is possible that
Col John S. Gambler. appointed to com
mand the Third Georgia Volunteers. may
not lead that regiment to the front after
all.
Col. Gambler has been rejected by the
United States army mastering officer.
Maj. Mills, on account of physical disa-
biity.
Col. Gambler was ordered before the ex-
aiming board of physicians by the Gov
ernor yesterday, and was subjected to
examination by Maj. Grandy, the regi-
mental surgeon.
He reported to Maj. Mills the muster
ing officer, that Col. Gambler had one foot
cut off at the ankle and the other cut off
from the instep back TO the heel. He was
manned thus by being run over by rail-
road train some fifteen years ago
Col. Gambler walks without the assist
ance of cane and manages to get along
very well under ordinary circumstances.
Maj. Mills, however, decided that under
the regulations of the war department,
Col Gambler was unfit for service and SO
reported to the Governor to-day.
In case of ordinary physical defects IL is
the custom of the war department to ac-
cede to the request of the Governors If
they insist upon the appointment of the
rejected officers, and Maj. Mills, in his
conference with the Governor, explained
that If ne insisted upon the acceptance of
Col. Gambler, he might be passed. The
Governor took the matter under advise
ment, and then addressed a communica-
ton to Maj Mills, by which the matter is
referred to the war department. Gov. At
kinson requests the department to muster
Col. Gambler despite his physical disabili-
ties on account of his splendid qualities as
a soldier, provided the department does
not consider that his disability would be
detrimental to the service
1t is understood that Col. Gambler had
assurances in advance from the DEPART
ment that he would be accepted if appoint
ed despite his physical disability and 1t is
possible that this will be overlooked. but
those who know the policy of the depart
ment well say that the chances are against
him.
There have been several changes in the
list of officers OF the Third Georgia Regi-
ment. Lieut. Sheldon has declined to ac-
cept the position rendered. He expected to
be quartermaster, and was appointed a
1lrst lieutenant of the line. Lieut.. ]. NJ.
kimbrough of Griffin has been appointed
in his place.
Capt. Hugh Conner of Savannah, has de-
clined, and Lieut.. Joe Gilbert of Albany,
has been given the place.
MIR. c. L. Elliott of Brunswick has been
appointed first lieutenant to fill the va
cancy created by the promotion of William
Gilbert.
DIR. f. H. Pate of Unadilla, has been ap-
pointed assistant surgeon.
Sylvannus Orr of Newman has been ap-
pointed quartermaster.

CARE OF THE SICK.
Tampa Doesn't Want Them Located
There without Quarantine.

Iampn DOESN'T want Them Located
There without Quarantine.
Tampa, Fla. June 2S.-The steamship
Olivette Is momentarily expected, and the
disposition of her cargo of sick and wound
ed is question of some concern here.
The belief that suffering soldiers are to
be brought here direct from the Cuban
shores without any quarantine detention
whatever causes apprehension.
The hospital train is here for the osten-
sible purpose of conveying the sick quick
ly TO more Northern hospitals, but at the
same time number of hospital tents are
being prepared in the camp on Tampa
Heights.
This work indicates the location of the
sick here.
If upon the arrival of the Olivette the
government shows a disposition to do such
thing, a protest viii be made by Hon.
w. Il. Henderson, president of the state
board of health. DR.. Henderson said to-
day that in such an event he would file
a protest with the. authorities and ask
that they utilize the hospital thew have
recently erected on Egmont Key.

Atlanta, Ca, June 2S.-The weekly crop
bulletin of the weather bureau for week
ending to-day says a general Improvement
has occurred in the condition of crops over

Ilarly peaches are ripening, and being
shipped.
Quantities of watermelons are being put
on the market; they are small in most
sections.
Showers fell in most of the eastern coun-
ties on the 10Th and Dist, and scattered
showers have fallen on dates during the
past week, and crops are looking better
than at the time of the last report.
Corn and cane are doing fairly well. The
early fields of corn have tasseled very
low.
Peaches are plentiful but small.
Cotton continues to improve steadily. but
the plant is still small

KILLED By LIGHTNING.
William YOumans of COrdeIe Struck
Down in His Home.

Cordele Ga, June 2S.-Sunday night this
city was visited by the most severe thun-
der storm it has had for several years.
During the storm the residence of Will
liam Youmans was struck by lightning,
and Mr.. Youmans, who was standing in
the hall, was instantly killed. Other
members of his family who were sitting
around We're not even injured.
1t was observed that while both shoes
and most of the clothing were torn off,
there were no marks whatever of the
shock on the body.
One other singular thing was that a
loaded gun, which was standing in a cor
ner of one of the rooms, had the stock and
hammer torn Off but the gun was not dis
charged
Mr. Youmans was in the sewing machine
business and was widely and favorably
known in Dooly and adjoining counties.
