stated yesterday that he had received
inquiries from number of comLa-

He considers it likely that the COM

Yorkville will make tho trip. So far
it Is certain that the Greenville com
pany, the Sumter Light infantry and
the Washington Light infantry of
Charleston v'ill take the trip. The
German Tusiliors wired yesterday
that they would go 100 strong if 40
uniforms could bo furnished them.
These will be furnished.
Gen. Floyd was busy yesterday
sending information to the mem
ssa@bers of the Governors staff, and
ing to get cheaper rate on

e'FFnies.
Yesterday ho received request
from the Governor of Georgia for
permission for tho Macon Hussars

pic on Pending Topics.
Describing the speech of Senator
Tillman to the Bi Metallic League at
Providence the Boston Post says:
In language emphatic and sarcasm
most biting, with his index finger
pointed at the audience, he handled
the topics OF the day in a fashion
now to tho experience of New En-
gland audiences, and for time the
people looked amazed Tho audi
enco soon became accustomed to his
manner of presenting his argument,
80 that when he had finished they
cried for "NIore, more. Go on" and
applauded SO long that vhe Senator
was obliged to bow hiu acknowledge
ments several times.
Senator Tillman said among other
things: "The warmth of your well
come leads me- to remark that it has
not been 30 long ago that man
from the South and from South Caro-
lima who would have come to New
England to discuss national issues
would have met with very different
treatment. Laughter and applause.
take it, my friends, as an augury
of better days for the Republic that
the Spanish war, if it has done moth
ing else, is worth all that it cost in
the fact that it has proved that tho
outh will fight for the stars and
stripes as readily as you will. Loud
applause.
"You New Englanders have some
characteristics which, to my mind,
are most admirable. You have some
institutions among you that arc not
equalled elsewhere in the United
States, and at heart you are as clean
and honorable and high. toned and
patriotic population as | have ever
met. But my countrymen, | want
to have you to recollect this one
thing-that south of the Potomac
and west of the Mississippi thoro are
moro people than there are in New
England and all the country outside
of those limits. [Applauso. Tho peo.
pie south Of the Ohio and Potomac
and west of tho Mississippi can elect
president without your holp and in
spite of you. [applause and cries of
Hear, hear
"Therefore it Is we'll for you to
have it recalled to your minds that
this is a great country, and that it
has more interests than centre around
New England or New York or tho
Middle States, and that these inter
ests are now being neglected.; that
ono'half of tho people Of this coun-
try a&o being oppressed, and that it
