Is Impossible for Sec
ond Brigade to
Go There.
EQUIPMENTS IN BAD SHAPE.
Col. Shumway Thinks Pres.
ident's Order Stops Mai.
Whipple's Purpose.

Lieut.. Col. E. r. Shumway and Maj
Harry B. Fairbanks of the Second Mas
sachusetts regiment, attended meat
ing of officers of the First brigade If
Springfield yesterday. The meetire
was devoted mostly to talk of camr
and facilities for conducting the eek,
tour of duty at birmingham in August
according to the ideas of militia off.
GERS.
Last night Lieut.. Col. shumway
talked with Spy man about thu c3n.
dition of the militia equipment at the
present time, and is of the opinion that
it will be impossible to do away with
caterers Tor companies at this years
tour of duty.
All equipments for militia regiments
throughout the United States vino
We're mustered into the service Of the
United States previous to the war with
Spain were turned in when the regi-
ments were mustered out and the
United States government made few
repairs on them and then reissued
them to the different states.
Massachusetts got a collection that
1t would be hard to beat, according to
the ideas of Col. Shumway. He saw
the collection at the arsenal in SPRING
field yesterday and practically, every
one of them bears the private mark
Of the man who used them before he
turned it back to the government.
The pannikins and tin cups have
been retinned but the marks show as
plainly as before, and with little
usage Col. Shumway thinks they will
be in as bad shape as when turned
back to the government, after six
months usage by the soldiers.
The state commissary officers are of
the same opinion as the Worcester Of
ticer, as they inspected the entire lot
and condemned them.
This does away entirely with the
idea of allowing the Second brigade to
go to camp down at Cape Cod, as the
state will be unable to get mold of
enough haversacks and canteens to
equip the men properly to allow them
10 cook their own food.
The officers of the Second brigade
were anxious to take in the tour OF
duty at Cape Cod, but find now that
it is impossible, and even the buzzicct
ovens which are used by each COM
pany, have also been condemned by tic
state commssary officers.
Lieut.. Col Shumway is of the opinion
that Mai. Whipple of the Second regl-
ment, who has announced his intention
of raising 1875 men for service iu the
regular army, will be unable to do so,
as the order issued by the president
calling for men, reads that the men
shall be enlisted at the regular army
recruiting offices throughout the coun-

A Steamers Exciting
Race for Life

Chicago. Nov. 1.-THE steamer
Conestoga OF the Anchor line this
morning made gallant race, IN the
result Of which depended the lives OF
her crew.
The steamboat. bound into Chicago
from Buffalo, In the dense fog that
hung over Lake Michigan, ran into
the halfway crib a mile and half out
from the harbor entrance, and great
hole was stove in the bow. A panic
seized the crew as the ship began to
fill, and there was disposition to rush
for the boats. But the captain gave
orders to turn on all steam and make
a quick run for the harbor. He COM
manded the men to stand at their
posts.
The Conestoga settled fast and her
speed was greatly diminished before
half the distance to the piers at the
mouth of the harbor had been travers-
ed. Everybody showed the feverish
edbcihSoo VI men VIM Wcic hbhtih6
against death. A few hundred yards
from the entrance ii looked as IL the
boats would have to be resorted to af-
ter all. AS the mouth of the harbor
was gained, floods of water poured in
to the fire hold, drove the stokers up
the ladders to the deck and extinguish-
ed the fires under the boilers. But the
vessel was then dragging on the bot
tom, and the fears of going down In
deep water was replaced by apprehen-
sions that the boilers might explode
Fortunately the water cooled the boil
ers gradually and the Conestoga came
to stop as her keel rubbed hard in
the mud The water did not reach the
upper deck, so the crew was safe.
The steamer was loaded at Buffalo
and carried freight from eastern points
| 1t Is thought that the loss In the cargo
alone will be in the neighborhood Of
100000.
The Conestoga lies easily in twenty
three feet of water, and unless Sc
we're storm arises will probably be saw
ed. She carried heavy deck load, ant
this is practically unchanged. Diver!
were put to work today repairing tn,
hole in her bow.

PORTO RICO SHAPE ALTERED

New York, Nov. IA special to the
Times from Washington says:
One Of the most curious results of the
annexation of Porto Rico will be an al
teration in the shape Of the island as
1t is known to the world.
The coast survey Is now at work find
ing out what the real shape of Porto
Rico is, and it has already learned
enough to show that the old Spanish
surveys are not only unreliable and
worthless but that they give positive
ly false impression of the formation of
the coast.
Porto Rico has always had strange
ly regular shape on the maps. Is
lands take all sorts of shapes, but 1t Is
circle or a square. But Porto Rico has
been of an oblong shape, looking al
most as exact and precise as a child's
building block. 1t has looked as IL the
sea, disguised with the queer shapes
assumed by islands, had determined
to throw above its surface at least one
island as even in contour as a cigar
box, just to show that it could be done.
The coast survey is beginning to find
out that Porto Rico has Irregularities
and considerable ones, like all other is
lands. At the eastern end, which the
Spanish surveys make as sharp as the
edge OF a board, there is really long
northwestern slant into the ocean
This will make the island bigger than
has been supposed, unless, as is quite
probable, the coast survey has to gouge
big hole in the southeastern end OF
the island, corresponding to the rise tc
| the northwest.
No one can tell what shape Porte
Rico will be when 1t is finally survey
ed as an American possession but II
seems certain that 1t will not be the in
sular freak it has appeared on the
| Spanish surveys.

From a Burning Steamer.

Southampton, Nov. 16.-The passen-
gers of the neutrality-suspicious. line
steamer Patria, who were rescued from
that vessel yesterday, 1t having taken
fire at sea, spent the night at South
ampton, awaiting the arrival of the
Kaiser FRIEDRICH. Four of the passen-
gers were left at Dover. One Of them,
a man named Du Place, 1t is believed,
will die because of his terrible expert
ence.
It now seems probable that the Pa
tria will at least be partly saved. What
caused the fire is still mystery, but 1t
is asserted that the fact that the steam
er was on fire was withheld from the
passengers for some time, Captain Fro
hlch apparently wishing to II possible,
take his ship to Hamburg without
causing alarm.
