WILL SAIL SOON.
Regulars VIII Take the Place of Volun-
teers at MANILA.

Washington, Jan. 3.--General Otis at
Manila, has been notified by cable of
the arrangements that have been com
pleted to speedily reinforce his COM
mand by the dispatch of six regiments
of regular infantry. The 18th, now at
Fort LeavenWorth, will sail from San
Francisco on the transport Scandal,
Jan. 7, and is timed to reach Manila by
the end of the month. Major General
Lawton has been in command Of the 4th
regiment, now at Fort Sheridan, ILL.,,
the 18th at Jefferson barracks and the
18th at Columbus barracks, o., and is
directed to sail with them Jan. u on the
transport Mohawk and the Massachu-
sets, proceeding by way of the Suaz
canal. This force under General Law
aton is expected to reach the Philippines
the second week in February. The other
two regiments selected for garrison duty
in the Philippines, the 3rd infantry. at
Fort Smelling, Mimi, and the 22nd at
Fort Crook, Neb., will depart from San
Francisco as soon as transports are
available The army steamer Senator,
which left Manila Dec. Ii, with the AS
tor battery and other troops bound for
San Francisco, is due there early next
week, and will be ready to return with
either the 3rd or the 22nd regiment five
days later
While everything is being done by the
war department authorities to expedite
the departure of these troops in com
pliance with repeated information from
General Otis that he is anxious to ex-
change his volunteers for regulars, it
has been found impossible to start them
much earlier than the middle of Jantl-
airy, Which was the time set when it was
first decided two weeks ago to send a
portion of the needed force by way of
New York on account of the lack of
transport facilities in the Pacific. Until
these troops reach the Philippines It is
not believed by the authorities that
General Otis will undertake any agrees
sive operations for the extension of the
American sovereignty over the various
provinces now held by the insurgents
although he has full discretion in the
matter, but that he will reserve his
forces for use in emergencies, should
the insurgents grow unmanageable in
the vicinity of Manila.
Confidence was expressed at the war
department that there would be no bat
tie at 1loilo after every resource of
peaceable negotiations to induce the re-
bells to evacuate the city has been ex-
hauSted

James Neary at a cock fight Sunday
evening, was still alive and more sur

great determination to live and his re-
marka BILE vitality are greatly in his ia

been pending in congress for wears
and which had already passed the SEN

law. and Veeley will get good Amer
lean dollars to the amount of $500 and
interest from Uncle Sam The bill was
called up by Representative Zenor Of
Indiana. 1t was first introduced in
the senate during the Fifty-fi first con-
gress on April 25. 1890, and referred to
the committee on claims. Senator Tur-
pie secured its passage in the upper
house May II, 1897.
1t is in the reports of, the committee
on claims that the story of the treas
ury notes is told. According to these
reports John Veeley was. on Sept. 90
1853 employed in Louisville. Ky, as a
carpenter by the Louisville & Nashville
railroad company. and while tearing
out the end of an old box car which
was under repair, he found five United
states treasury notes, payable to bear

in March, 1869, Wellman sent them
again to the treasury department and
the matter was referred to the first
comptroller, who decided that they
should neither be redeemed nor re
turned to Wellman. Wellman then
made demand upon Veeley for the
return of the purchase money, and it
is alleged that an officer was sent to
mtImdate him and force settlement
Neeley had in the meantime disposed
of the $500 and, being dependent on
| ms daily labor, 1t was not easy to re-
fund the money. but he at length did
so by instalments. and whatever
rights were acquired by the original
finding were revived in him by the re-
payment.
Neeley subsequently renewed his ef
