NEW YORK. December 9.-Lieut.
Stacker and seven members of the
First Tennessee volunteers. arrived
here to-day on the steamer st. Louis
from Southampton. on their way to
their homes In CIarksville, Tenn, after
having seen some months of active
service in the Philippines. The men
left Manila on October and came via
Nagasaki and the Suez canal.
1.-The Philippine soldiers fight like
hell" said Lieut. Stacker. "They seem
TO have no fear of death and they don t
fear danger, but their fighting is not
the kind we expected. They will fight
and then scatter to fight again. Their
mode of warfare is much like that OF
the Beers.
1.-The troops, in my opinion, will be
chasing Aguinaldo for the next 365
years, and then never catch him. But
he is simply the fgure-head. There
are others behind him. l do not think
the Philippines are worth all the loss
and trouble they are costing us. When
the dry season sets in, think the end
of the present rebellion will be in
eminent will have to keep the islands
we'll garrisoKed, and then they will
never be able to keep all the natives
quiet. Revolutions will be constantly
starting in different sections, and |
think we will find that we have our
hands full.
1.-THE climate out there is unhealthy
and there is
A treat Deal of sickness.
among the soldiers. Two per cent. of
our regiment were sick with dysentery
and fever There were three or four
deaths in the regiment from smallpox.
Many soldier dies out there, and the
people over here never hear anything
of the matter They don't like to make
the death list public.
Gen Otis is good man, but he is
not liked by the men, who privately
speak of him as old woman or use
other equally disrespectful names. He
has done all that he can, but the great
trouble is that he tried to do it all"
In describing their experience in
Paris, the lieutenant said:
I'VE were quite curiosity in Paris
and were stared at on the steets and
followed about We had only to stop
on any street inParis and the crowd
which surrounded us would block the
street. AS long as we kept moving it
was all right, but the very moment we
stopped the trouble began. We were
mistaken for English soldiers, and for
that reason attracted considerable at
tention and Insulting comment was
made about us. Fortunately we could
not understand French, though we
could understand the Kisses. One
crowd found out we were Americans
and then left us alone"

tempted to pass her. The Leroy Rugged
in close to the Virginia side of the
channel, with the Ruth at her heels.
The Ruth attempted to pass. by pulling
over on the Ohio side of the channel,
but finding she was losing ground,
swung over into the Leroy's swells.
The boats held the same positions I'M
til Moundsville levee was reached, the
Leroy winning by a little over a boats
