WELL EQUIPPED EXPEDITION.

Washington. Sept. 20.-The advance
guard of the expedition for Honolulu
and eventually for Manila started Sun
day, when the Abarena sailed from
Fortress Monroe via Brazil. The Abar-
enda is one OF four golfers which are to
keep the Oregon and Iowa supplied with
coal on their long voyage around South
America. The plan Is to have two of the
colliers precede the battleships and two
to go along with them. In addition to
these escorting craft, the Celtic and the
iris will be added to the expedition. The
Celtic is a refrigerator and supply ship.
and the Iris is distilling ship. Such
perfectly equipped expedition never
sailed under any flag. With their large
reserve supply of coal. with an abun-
dance OF refrigerated meats and vege-
tables, with appliances and plant for
making repairs to machinery, and finally
with an abundance OF fresh water. the
squadron will be able to keep the seas
for an indefinite period of time.
1t was stated at the quartermaster
generals Office that the returning trans
ports which have been to Manila on one
trip will be used to take the troops now
In San Francisco to the Philippines.
Two Of these steamers, which will ac-
commodate half the command. are ex-
pected TO arrive in day or two. other
steamers now on their way will be sent
back as soon as loaded with troops
Four steamers will be sufficient for the
transportation OF the troops and sup
plies. 1t Is believed that less time
will be consumed by using these trans
ports than In itting up new vessels.

washington, Sept. 20-The war de-
partment is undergoing an experience,
which illustrates the alacrity with
which the average American citizen
hastens to his senator or representa-
tive in congress for aid In emergencies.
The cessation OF hostilities and the i'm
probability of their renewal. with the
dullness Of camp life. have apparently
created q feeling OF restlessness among
the men of the volunteer army. who, in
the majority OF cases. have given up
positions of larger compensation. and
many OF them are imploring their po-
litical representatives to obtain their
discharges, and the latter in turn are
flooding the war department with re-
quests for prompt and immediate ac-
tion.
To such an abuse Of privilege has this
grown that the war department has
been obliged to call attention to that
paragraph Of the army regulations
which requires that all communications
from subordinates to superiors must
pass through military channels and to
decline. as a rule. to entertain appli-
cations for discharges Of enlisted men

manner. soldier who is desirous OF

ment and the latter to pass Ii along
through brigade. division and corps

The department has also promulgated
another ruling i'm this connection which
Is to the effect that public policy will not
permit at this time the consideration OF
applications for discharges OF men serv-
ing in the Philippine islands. Honolulu,
Cuba or Porto Rico. The reasons for
this are obvious. Aside from the ques-
tion of transportation involved and the
necessity Of supplying the places Of men
who are to be discharged with others
from the states, 1t Is TO be remembered
that the war is not over, and that much
depends upon the results and delibera-
tions of the peace commissioners who
have sailed for Paris.
