Position of Gen. Otis.

New York, June 26.-The World.
Adams, Mass, special says:
A long cipher message from General
Otis, sent to Washington and thence re-
layed to Adams without the usual Official
editing, has caused President Mckinley
many uneasy moments. All that Otis toll
the president is not known, but the cor
respondent is enabled to make this state
ment:
Otis plainly intimated his inability tc
conquer the Filipinos with the present
fighting strength at his command. Fur
thermore, it is said, he gave the impress
sion he would be forced to abandon
ground already taken unless reinforce
ments were quickly sent.
From the very beginning of the Philip
pine war Otis has been an optimist. Tie
has made official Washington believe he
could crush the rebellion with his present
strength, and instead of reporting the true
situation, he has made his daily dis
patches conform to the picture as he saw
it through his colored glasses. Now, how
ever, that Otis is no longer able to sue
cessfully distort facts, the true state Of
affairs is coming to light and he is forced
to tell things which he might like to hide
1t is possible that General Otis soon may
be relieved of his command.

ROUGH RIDERS anniversary
COLONEL ROOSEVELT THERE
First Annual Meetinx-The Colonel De-
layed - Received Hearty Greeting
All Along the Line-Will Camp With
His Command.

East Las Vegas, N. NJ, June 26.-The
first annual meeting of the Rough Riders
Regimental Association was delayed by
railroad washouts which held back Gov
ernor Theodore Roosevelt of New York,
who as colonel of the famous organization
of fighters and the special guest of honor
of this occasion, was looked upon as the
necessary feature of the formal opening
of the affair. For two days the crowds
had been gathered from near and far until
this morning the little city Of Las Vegas
was filled as she has seldom been before.
Colonel Roosevelt has arrived and was
greeted as he stepped of the platform of
from 5000 people, massed around the de-
pot. The noted New Yorker was clad in
his Rough Rider uniform and was easily
recognized by the crowd. He was almost
lifted bodily from his feet by the press
of persons anxious to grasp his hand and
as he and his party made their way slowly
to the Castenado hotel the crowds surged
after him. He looked in excellent health
and seemed to appreciate the hearty ell
thusiasm of the people who greeted him.
As he walked down the depot sidewalk a
line of Rough Riders saluted and joined
in the general ovation.
A party of Rough Riders and citizens
met Colonel Roosevelt and party at
Wagon Mound. There were no speeches
made, as had been anticipated. On the
way down Colonel Roosevelt remarked:
Captain Luna was the first man spot
ted"
AS he met his old comrades in arms he
calculated heartily: 81 am glad to see
you," st does me good to shake your
paws" SLOW are you?" and similar ex.
pressions, evincing his hearty sympathy.
At Ration the citizens turned out en-
masse. Colonel Roosevelt was presented
with a floral offering consisting of an
archway with gate swinging open. The
design was made of roses and carnations
with a background of smilax.
At Springer the citizens presented him
with flower wreath.
At Wagon Mound there was an ovation
of the people and the school children of
the place sang: my country, IT'S Of
Thee"
Colonel Roosevelt Travelled in the pri-
vate car of Vice President Morton of the
Santa Fe. Mr.. Morton was member of
the party. II. II. Kohlsaat, editor of the
Chicago Times-Herald, Captain Day, Lieu-
tenant Ferguson and Lieutenant Goodrich
also accompany Roosevelt. Colonel Roose-
welt has promised to remain until Sunday
morning and will attend the review to-
morrow afternoon.
He telegraphed to the local committee
of arrangements that he would accept no
hotel accommodations and wanted to
camp out with his command. Accordingly
a tent was pitched for his accommodation
in Camp Cochran.

Freight Train wrecked.

Rathdrum, Idaho, June 26.-The local
west bound freight train was wrecked at
Ramsey siding, five miles east of here.
The train was running about 25 miles an
hour at the time of the accident. 1t is
supposed that the hook that dangled from
the cable caught the switch post and
caused the wreck. Seven ears and the
caboose went in the ditch. Several pas
sengers were on board at the time, but
fortunately no one was hurt. The wreck
ing crew had the track cleared soon after.

In Sheridan Camp.

In Sheridan Camp.
This is what Col. Topping Of Trail,
B. c., who has been experimenting
the development Of the leila M and
Fanny Woodwork claims in Sheridan
camp, Washington, says: "The claims
adjoin each other and are owned by
the leila Consolidated Mining compa-
ny. A shaft on the leila M has been
sunk to a depth of $50 feet. At the
1OO-foot level is a drift so feet long and
SO feet further down there is another
drift $50 feet long. These will be ex-
tended so as to develop the Fanny
Woodwork, whose northern boundary
is not far from the main working shaft.
Starting from the surface on ledge
two and half feet wide, the miners
have never been without ore all the
way down. There are four feet Of ore
in both the drifts. 1t is especially of
high grade character in the south drift
and can be shipped without sorting.
The surface outcroppings on the prop
erty are over 1000 feet long and con-
tain good pay ore"
Mining in Sheridan camp can be car
ried on cheaper and more advantage
ously than in Rosslend camp. An av-
erage experience is to sink at the rate
of one foot per day. The values in the
leila M also give from to per cent.
in copper.
On the same vein the company is
working two other claims, the Rebecca
and the Kitty Clyde. Near it is an
other vein seven feet wide. Though
no experimental shipment has been
made, the ore is high grade and similar
to that found on the leila M. Next to
it is the Discovery, owned by an east
ern Oregon company. The shaft is
down 60 feet. High grade silver sui
phide ores have been struck. One mile
to the south is the Little Chester which
has the same ledge as the leila M. The
former has an ore body four feet wide,
rich in high grade silver, including a
large quantity Of silver glance.
Joining the Kitty Clyde and between
that and the Little Chester, is the Ely
claim, owned by John H. Ogden of Spo-
kane, which has several leads running
through it. Though little work has
been done the showing is very good.
Col. Topping estimates that there
are $250,0O0 worth of ore in sight, rang
ing in value from 5000 to 500 per ton.
The ratio of the values in silver and
gold are as ten to one.
The same gentleman owns the Polar
Fraction claim, between the leila NJ
and the American Flag claims, joining
the Uncle Sam and Polar Star group.
A fine four-foot vein of quartz has been
uncovered on this, carrying similar
ore to Uncle Sam vein.
