10000 MEN UNDER TENTS.
Half the Volunteers Assigned to
Chickamaugn Now on the Ground.

CHICKAMAUGA NATIONAL PARK,
Ga, May 2.-There are now $4,000 men of
the volunteer army under tents at this
point and the officers of the army expect
that by Saturday night there will be 44,00O
The First Division of the Third Corps as
far as perfected is as follows:
First Brigade-Commanded by Col. Fred
D. Grant, provisional brigadier; Fourteenth

Second Brigade-Col. E. C. Hardin, Sec
ond New York, commanding; Second New
York, Second Nebraska and First District
of Columbia.
Third Brigade-Commandin officer to be
assigned Third Tennessee, First Vermont
and Eighth New York
The day at the park was unmarked by
any incident except the battle drill of the
First Division of the First Corps. The
movements were under command of Gen.
Wilson, and the men were put through the
exercises in a very thorough manner. The
regiments of the division have been in
camp long enough to have become some
what Injured to the climate as well as the
work, and the maneuvers were character
lied by great energy, accuracy and re-
markable precision.
General Breckenridge and staff to-day
continued the inspection OF the DIVISIONS
the First Corps in detail. He found the
hospital facilities still inadequate, but
fortunately there are very few sick and
they are being cared for at st. Vincent's
Hospital of the Sisters of Charity He
states that in a very short time the hos
pital department will be in good condition.
General Breckenridge to-day gave orders
for a sham battle for inspection tomorrow
morning. The two first brigades of the
First Division of the First Corps will at
tack the Third Brigade, intrenched on Srod-
grass hill, the attacking brigades to be in
command of General Wilson and the de-
tenders under command of their brigade
commander. General Breckenridge stated
tonight that he would be unable to COM
pete his inspection at as early a date as he
expected that only small percentage of
the men had been equipped and prepared
for war; but that this work was progressing
as rapidly as possible. General Breckin-
ridge thinks that in view of the fact that
almost every regiment in camp had to be
equipped almost completely the progress
made was remarkable
The work of unloading and storing forty
nine cars of provisions which arrived yes
terday and last night was completed to-
day. Up to to-day the quartermaster'S de-
partment had received $295OOO worth of pro-

the clothing and equipment already received
amounts to almost as much. The quarter
masters department is doing remarkably
well in its work of caring for the $4,000 men
now in camp.

TAMPA Fla, May PA condition of
almost ominous quiet, the calm before the
storm. prevails around army headquarters
at Tampa and at the docks at Port Tampa.
Even what little information that has been
vouchsafed of late as to the general work
OF preparing a big army for hard. bitter
campaign in Cuba has been almost wholly
cut off, and the impression prevails that the
end is not far off; that the long, weary
v eeks of drilling in the blazing sun and
sitting dust of southern Florida will soon
be but memory in the minds of those en-
gagged in the more deadly, but also more
welcome, campaigning in Cuba. Every sol
der in Tampa, from the highest officer to
the raw recruits, is watching with an in
terest almost painful in its intensity for
news from the fleets. In the minds of all is
tho settled conviction that the hour when
news of a battle between Sampson and
Schiey and Cervera is received at Wash
ington will mark the time for the issuance
of orders TO embark, and that this is mat
ter of a few days is not doubted. Perhaps
IT will be but few hours 1t is the belief,
at least, that the American commanders
have the clever Spanish admiral in posi-
ton where he cannot escape, where his only
recourse is to fight and that can result in
but one thing-the destruction of another
Spanish fleet.

Bio. for Armor Plate.

WASHINGTON, May a. Bids were
opened to-day for supplying the armor for
the three battle ships Illinois, Alabama and
Wisconsin, now in course Of construction at
the Union iron works, Newport News and
Cramps. This is the second time that the
government has endeavored to secure bids
for supplying the armor for these ships.
The first effort made, about a year ago,
was unsuccessful because Congress had
made the minimum cost per ton for the ar
NOR at a figure below the cost of produc-
ton. The present naval appropriation bill
having increased the price allowed to $500
per ton, to-day's efforts were successful.
For the Illinois the two armor companies,
Bethlehem and Carnegie, divided their bids,
one taking the lighter armor and the other
the heavier. For the Alabama the Beth
lehem company bid 81. OPP 5O4. while the Car
negie company did not bid. For the Wis
consin the Carnegie company bid $1,O23, 5O4.
The rate in each case was $500 per ton fiat
for bolts and armor, the maximum amount
allowed by Congress, The Bethlehem COM
pany undertakes to begin deliveries of the
armor within seven months after contract
and to supply 300 tons monthly. The Car
negie company will begin Dec next and
supply the same amount monthly.

soldiers and sailors have been issued by
Postmaster General Emory Smith. One
order takes the Philippine islands out OF
the category of places where mail commun-
ication with the United States is suspended
and the other revives a regulation permit
letters postage upon which is to be collected
on delivery Following is the text of the
order regarding mail for United States
forces at the Philippines:
In view Of existing hostilities between
the United States and Spain, which neces-
states the presence Of United States forces
in active service at and near the Philippine
islands, and of the fact that postal com
munication with said islands, as one Of the
Spanish colonies. is prohibited by my order
No 161, dated the 18th ultimo, it is hereby
ordered that articles of mail matter for or
from persons connected with said United
States forces shall be subject to the postage
rates and conditions applicable to similar
articles in the domestic mails of the United
States. The articles shall be sent to the
commandments of the forces by every oppor-
States vessel for said forces. The sailing
dates of the vessels cannot be announced
In advance, and the articles should there
fore be forwarded promptly to San Fran
cisco in order that they may be dispatched
thence to destination at the irst opportun-
ity"
The regulation in regard to the mail from
forces in the field is authorized by an act
of Congress passed in 1879 and is as follows:
Letters written by officers, commissioned
or noncommissioned, and privates in the
military, naval, or marine service of the
United States to be transmitted unpaid,
must be plainly marked Soldiers letter,
sailors letter or marines letter, as the
case may be. and signed hereunder with his
name and official designation by a field or
staff officer, post or detachment commander
to whose command the soldier belongs, or
by a surgeon or chaplain at a hospital
where he may be, and in the navy and
marine service by the officer in command
of the vessel or surgeon on board, or officer
commanding naval hospital or detachment
on shore. Letters so certified will be for
warded charged with postage due at single
rates only, to be collected on delivery"
This regulation is in line with a bill in
troduced yesterday by Representative Lyd-
rand, of Ohio extending tranking privileges
through the mails to officers and enlisted
men of the United States forces.

Hawaii VIII Welcome American
Troops on Their Way to Manila.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 24-The steamer
zelandia arrived this evening with the fol-
lowing Honolulu advices up to May II:
Members of the Cabinet refuse point blank
to deny or affirm the rumor that this gov
eminent has offered the islands to the
American government base of opera
tions in the war with Spain. The details of
bill having this object in view have been
received and sent to the Senate in secret
session. 1t was drafted by friends of
annexation in the United States. 1t was
sent to President Dole by the Hawaiian rep
resentatives in Washington. The members
of the Hawaiian Senate object to the bill,
saying that all the republic can do or offer
to do is contained in the annexation treaty.
To pass the proposed bill or even to con-
slider it would SAVIOR of overanxiety, which
would be very apt to defeat its own pur-
pose. President Dole has no power to cede
the islands without ratification by the
Hawaiian Legislature.
This country has not declared neutrality
as yet and will probably not do so. In the
meantime the American troops will be al
lowed directly and openly by the govern
ment all the freedom OF this port. They
will be sold all the food supplies and coal
they can carry off and will be given all the
assistance lying within the power OF the
people.
The Bennington is still anchored in the
harbor She is ready to go to sea at any
moment.
A second cable bill has been introduced in
the Senate 1t is in the form of an amend
ment of the existing law and will give the
government the right to grant an exclusive
franchise to lay a cable from Honolulu to
Japan or any other company. providing the
Pacific Cable Company fails to secure the
franchise and subsidy from the United
States.
Arrangements will be made for fitting
reception for the troops passing through
here on their way to Manila.
