EABARKED YESTERDAY
The BOYS of the Thirty-Fifth Are
Nov on Board the Transport
Sinh Headed for Manila.

A portion OF the Thirty-nfth regiment
was put on board the transport Sikh
yesterday at Portland. The men were
transferred nom Vancouver by the
steamer Telephone. The sikh Is ex-
pected to start down the river from
Portland today. Her draught Is said
to be a little over 20 feet and as there
is light freshet i'm the river II is ex-
pected that she viii be able TO float
over nearly all OF the sand bars on the
way down. Both the Sikh and City
OF Rio lie Janelro got up TO Portland
without getting stuck or meeting with
any mishap The Janelro is the deep
est OF the two transports and went up
the river drawing 900 feet. It was gen
orally supposed by waterfront men that
the draught OF both transports would
be more, and. Of course, fears were
expressed FOR their safety on their trip
up the river. This fact was mentioned
at the time by the Astorian. The Ore
gonian. however, seems 10 believe an
unusual feat was performed by the two
transports in arriving safely in Port
land Sundays edition Of that paper
devoted more than a column in giving
the time made by both the steamers
different points along the riv-
er. The truth Is both transports left
Astoria on the food tide and carried
the flood with with them until they ar
rived at the mouth Of the Willamette,
where one OF them anchored nearly 12
hours. But suppose the transports had
been loaded to % feet Of water as the
oregonian had previously reported,
their progress up the river would have
unquestionably been seriously retarded,
IL not rendered impossible. The Ore
gonian writer. however. probably is
not aware Of the fact that steamers
can go up the river drawing fully foot
more water than sailing vessels, and
that all kinds OF vessels can reach
Portland drawing more water than
they can come down on. The Sikh and
Rio de Janeiro may be able 20 come
down the river without hanging up
on the sandbars. But II such accldem
SHOULD happen, the oregonian will, as
It always does in such cases. maintain
a discreet silence. II Is safe to say.

ports is drawing over 81 feat 4 win be

present is above its normal height.
Both transports have fuel on board
for the voyage to Manila and will be-
ready to sail upon their arrival here.

DISPATCH FROM OTIS.

WASHINGTON. oct S.-The follow
ing is the dispatch OF General Otis re-
ceived yesterday relative to the visit
OF the insurgent officers:
Manila, Get. 2. adJutant general,
Washington, D. C.-Three insur-
gent officers were permitted to enter
our lines at Angeles with 12 Of our
soldiers and two citizens whom they
wish to present as released prisoners.
Yesterday, in a conference they en-
deavored to present a communication
from the insurgent government, which
vas declined. Then they presented a
paper signed by 10 OF the soldiers, in
which the soldiers gave paroles. This
was received and held In abeyance.
The insurgents then said that Agulnal-
do desired to end the war and send a
civil commission for a conference, and
they were informed that It would not
be received. They will be sent be-
yond the lines tomorrow.
The whole affair is believed to be a
ruse to obtain some acknowledgment
by the United States authorities, The
soldiers returned were stragglers from
our lines captured by robbers. They
were obliged to sign the paroles to
secure their release, though two refus-
ed 10 sign. The whole affair is Of no
significance; It is viewed as an attempt

A SUCCESSFUL PAsToRATE.
Rev. Mr. Hollingshead's Departure TO

Members Of the First Methodist
church and people OF Astoria generally
sincerely regret the departure Of Rev.
Mr.. Hclingshead, who has been ap-
pointed to take charge Of the church
at Eugene.
Mr.. Hollingshead's earnest endeav-
ors in this field have been unusually
successful. More members have been
received into the church since his min
istry than during any like periol in
rs history Harmony has pryailed,
and the general work Of the church
has been greatly advanced.
The two years Of Mr.. Hollngsh -ad S
pastorate have made marked change
for the better in the church's financial
condition. Not only are the current
expenses paid promptly, which was for
merly Impossible, but all the indebted
ness has been wiped out except that
owing the church extension society
ana even this has been materially re-
duced.

the Astoria church stands at the head
of the churches Of the Methodist de-

Mr.. Hollingshead is justly proud. The
services have always attracted large
congregations.

endelvored to secure the services Of
MIR. HoIIingshead. This time the Eu-
gene committee had an audince with
the bishop and the change was made
