NEW YORK, Oct "A special to
the Herald from Washington says:
Brigadier General Charles p. Egau,
who was suspended from rank and
duty as result of the language en-
ployed by him before the war investi-
eating commission, hopes to obtain
vindication from congress during the
coming session.
General Eagan is at Washington to
settle matters connected with the fur
niture of the house he occupied before
his departure for Hawaii. 1t is under
stood however, that he is- ing -te
enlist the sympathies of the members
of congress in order 20 obtain cou-
gressional investigation of the beef
scandal
There is no intention on the part of
the administration to restore General
Eagan to duty. In fact, it is desired
that he should apply for retiremert in
order that the president may appoint
Colonel Weston, now acting commits
sary-general, brigadier and commits
sary.general of subsistence. The
president is anxious to do all he can
for the colonel. During General
Egan's stay here determined effort
will be made to induce him to apply
for retirement. but many think he
will not do so. in view of the fact that
he is now drawing full pay, and would
only receive three.quarters on the re-
tired list.

endangering the company's buildings
on all sides. Sparks from wood
saving engine started the fire. Fl.

fagration began. The city water was
shut off by the engineer in charge of
the improvements being made by the
Pacific Bridge Company, and no water
was obtainable for nearly quarter OF

Thanks to the heroic work of the
firemen. the woodward fire was kept
from spreading farther than the one
pile in which it started. Two hundred
cords of wood, valued at $500, were
destroyed. 1t was not insured.

ALL FOR DEWEY.
Fifty Thousand Men in the Land Parade at
New York,


New York.
NEW YORK, Oct 1.-The land par
ade yesterday capped the climax. Th
city, state and nation united in vas
demonstration worthy of the hero o
Manila. The earth trem bled undel
the tread of $4,000 men, and the all
was torn by the shouts of millions
The naval parade of Friday was magn
iicent and suberb, but the wonder o
modern times was the land parade
Thousands of proud men of our land
and sea forces, the militia of Is states
and the veterans of the civil and Span
| ish.American wars swelled the Er s.
sion and gave it the dignity in size that
it boasted in sentiment.
Walls of people miles long streached
down the line of march on either side
dense, impregnable mass. Fifth
avenue from Fifth ninth street to the
Washington Park, at Fourteenth
street, where the parade disbanded,
was solitary packed with SPECTATORS,
who overfowed into the buildings,
windows and on to the roof lines, sat
in embrasures and crowed scaffoling.
Along Broadway, where it crossed the
avenue, the skyscrapers we're as crowd
ed at the top as on the bottom, and for
blocks down the intersecting streets,
tenants hung from the windows and
lire escapes and multitudes of them
were on the roof, lying fiat on their
stom achs, peering down. First in the
parade cama the Jars of the Olympia
following Sausa's band and then came
the hero of Manila bay, and the officers
OF the fleet In all the glory of their
gold laced uniforms and eold-rimmed
cooked hats. All were in open ha.
rou hes. and at their head was The man
OF the hour. Mayor Van Wyck sat
beside Admiral Dewey in the carriage.
The front seat was hanked with btaut-
lful floral pieces The people did not
haye to give a second glance al the /
man who features have been blazoned |
everywhere for weeks. He was recogn- !
lied on the instant, and the cheers
and buzzahs that had greeted the
Olympia's men seemed tame when
compared with the shout they raised.
1t seemed fairly to lift the sky.
The gallant captains of the ships en-
ragged in the destruction of Montojo's
ieet, except poor Gridley, who died
lfter the battle, followed and also got
! rOusing welcome. The three ad-
nirals. Howison, Sampson and Philip,
IS they rode by with their brilliantly
ccoutered staff, we're easily recognized,
md got fatteriug applause.
Rut it was Rear Admiral Schley,
Vho divided honors with the central
gure of the day. He received a
emonstration second only to that of
Dewey. People along the line of
march fairly arose at him shouting
heir lacerated throats to the breaking
oint. ''Hurrah for the hero of Santi-
CO." "There is the man that smashed +.
'ervera's feet,'' 'sAip, hip. hurrah {
Or Schley," and kindred cries came {
rom all parts of the line. ]
The parade closed at $40 and every
ody pronounced it the grandest re-
option ever giver returning hero |
