NO MORE MEN WANTED
The ThirtY-FOurfh Has Been Re-
CTuitsd TO full Strength.

Lieutenant Luna received a tele-
gram yesterday announcing that the
Th;rty-fourth regiment had been re-
cruited - full strength and that all
men hereafter enlisted will be trans
ferred to the Thirty third volunteer
infantry. In the last week 500 men
have been enlisted for the Thirty
fourth. Lieutenant Luna will con-
.-inue recruiting as before, but the
men will BE- sent to Fort Sam Houston,
in Texas, instead of Fort Logan. Al
though the two regiments commenced
recruiting at the s1me time, men have
Seen enlisted much more nupidly in the
Thirty-fourth .han in the other. This
is accounted for, perhaps, in the fact
that the former regiment has been
more popular and not on account of
the places where the recruiting Off
ces have been opened.
The ThiTty-fOurth regiment, in
Lieutenant Luna's opinion, will take
the place of the Rough Riders. 1t is
composed of about the same kind of
men and the physical examinations
have been more severe. He says that
it will be the hardest fighting regiment
in the Philippines, nC,. barring reg
ulars. The fact that the men have
shown such Willingness to enlist gives
them prominence at the start
It is thought that the Thi1.y-fourth
will sail for Manila about September
