WANT THE UNION PACIFIC.
People of SiouN Cuy Anxious to Have
Trains OF That Road Run In FROM

From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wedncsday'a Daily.
The people of Sioux City are confident
that the Union Pacific trains will soon
begin running into that city from Nor
folk although they were rather disap.

The following from this mornings

Sioux City was being considered in
Chicago, has exchanged during the last
week a number of letters and kilograms
with Uuion Pacific headquarters, and
has knowledge of the situation but de-
clines to talk of it.
'"President Burt, when the time
comes, will do what talking is to be
done" he replied in response to n re.
quest for a statement regarding the in
tentions of the Union Pacific people. II
realize that Sioux City business men are
anxious to know when these trains will
begin running, but nobody can tell that
except President Burt himself. There
are many details to be arranged. En-
CINE room and yard and freight
room must be secured and a schedule of
freight rates must be made with the
roads with which freight will be ex-
changed in Sioux City. This last takes
time, as everyone who is familiar with
the railroad business knows. 1t may be
a month or longer before the Union Pa
cific trains run into Sioux City, and it
NAV not be a week but they are COM
ing. Let rs be possessed of patience.

night in camp and the boys are feeling
good. The weather is fine. Very few
of the men have caught cold and there
were a smaller number than usual at
sick call. The men in hospital are i'm
proving. Colonel milford is arranging
for the pay of the men. The band con-
cert yesterday was the first regular one
given since the fighting began. At the
opening of hostilities with the Filipinos
the bandmen went into the ranks. In
order that they might have every care,
IL men who answered to sick call were
sent to the general hospital. None of
these are serious and all were able to
walk over to the hospital.
Governor Poynter made his first visit
to the camp yesterday. He leaves to-
day to spend the day as guest of the
California state officials and the city of
Sacramento. He drew a check in favor
of Major Snyder, chief surgeon, for
$500, to be used for the care of the sick,
Major Snyder to make a report of how
it has been used after the regiment is
mustered out.

COLONEL HAWKINS DIED AT SEA.

The Regiment Brings win II the Member
of the Nebraska Volunteers who Was
Lett Behind In Yokohama A Dozen
stowawayo Found on the SLIP.
SAN Francisco, Aug. 1.-The United
States transport Senator arrived last
night, from Manila, with her flag Mt
half mast, ON account of the death OF
Colonel Alexander Hawkins, com
nlander of the Tenth Pennsylvania regi-
ment, United States volunteers, who
died ON the voyage.
The Senator sailed from Manila on
July 1, with 3S officers and 72l enlisted
men. The transport was at Nagasaki
OH July 10, when Colonel Hawkins was
taken ill with cancer of the bowels, for
which he had undergone treatment In
the hospital at Manila. His illness con
tinued during the day when the Senator
was at Yokohama and two days later
he died ut sea.
Colonel Hawkins illness dated from
the battle of Malolos, when he exposed
himself almost recklessly in the disease
breeding climate. His body was placed
in a Theoretically sealed casket and on
the Sunday following his death funeral
services were conducted. The remains
lay in state, tended day and night by a
guard of honor, during the remainder
of the voyage. The casket will be
taken ashore today with ceremonies be-
fitting Colonel Hawkins rank, after
which the body of the dead commander
will be sent to Pennsylvania for inter-
ment.
After the death of Colonel Hawkins
the command of the regiment was
vested in Lieutenant Colonel Barnett
who, like the dead commander, is popu-
lar among the enlisted men. OF the 100
officers and men whom Colonel Barnett
brought to San Francisco, three are pri-
Yates in the Sixth artillery, u. S. A.,
and one is u member of the Nebraska
regiment, who was left behind at Yoko-
hama when his companions sailed for

stowaways were also concealed in the
hold and were soon brought to light

sidewalks clear the child was almost
suffocated in the crush of the people
pressing forward. The streets were
blocked, and the carriage containing
the triumphant party was followed by
great mob for blocks before itreached
its destination: Other vehicles Joined
into runaway procession.
When the house was reached great
cheer went up as Mr.. Clark emerged
from the carriage bearing the little
bundle Of humanity in his arms. He
had to fight his way up the steps, fol-
lowed by Chief Devery and Captain
McClusky.

arms and wept and sobbed. The
crowd on the outside yelled to see the
baby, and Mr.. Clark held the child UP
to the window SO that all could see 1t.
This was greeted with great cheers,
and then they cried for Mrs. Clark
and the child, and they appeared.
