POOR BUSINESS.
Neither Recruiting Station in the City
Enlisted a Man Yesterday.

Neither Recruiting Station in the City
Enlisted Man Yesterday.
Yesterday was poor day in the re-
cruiting business in Worcester and not
a man was enlisted at either office in
this city. At the regular army recruit
ing station in the Walker building, IL
men applied for admission to the army,
but owing to the severity of the exam
nation, they were dismissed until to-
day, when DR.. O'Meara will examine
them.
Several youngsters, who have not
reached the age limit, applied to be en-
listed, but they were sent to get their
parents consent. Sergt. James E.
Chamberlain received a telegram from
Capt. ]. Q. Gresham, ordering him to
send away all men enlisted for the Sew
enth artillery at Fort Adams, so they
will arrive in Newport before 4 o'clock.
The last boat leaves for the fort at 4.3Q
o'clock, and it is the captains desire
to have men housed in the fort on the
same day they leave Worcester.
The Interview in a morning paper
with Ssrgt. Chamberlain in regard to
the Boer- English campaign in South At
RIGA is denied by the sergeant. He
does not attempt to tell anything about
the English army, as he knows nothing
of it and does not know how men are
enlisted for the service. His work as a
recruiting sergeant for the American
army has been up among the leaders,
and he told The Spy man yesterday af-
ternoon that he was satisfied to look
after his own position without getting
tangled up with English methods.
