CHAPTER XIII.

Still another expedition was destined
to start for Manila, and keen was the
rivalry among the regiments held to
daily drill at San Francisco. The rumor
was current in the camps that the next
review was to decide the matter, and
that the commands pronounced to be
foremost in discipline and efficiency
would be designated to embark. The
transports that had conveyed the ear
lier expeditions to the Philippines be-
gan to reappear in the bay, and coaling
and retitting were hurried to the ut
most. The man most eager to get away
was Stanley Armstrong;; and If merit
were to decide the matter it was con-
coded among the volunteers that in
point of style and equipment the
"Primeval Dudes" "held over" all COM
p%etitors, even though every competitor
believed itself than a match for
the Dudes If actual campaigning and
fighting We're in contemplation. Sen
ators and members from the states
represented by the volunteers at San
Francisco led burdensome lives, for Of
ficers and men were pulling every wire
to secure the lo%nged-for orders for an
immediate voyage to Manila, when, all
on a sudden, the hopes of all were
crushed. Spain had begged for peace.
mo more men can be sent to MANILA"
said the officials consulted, and Camp
Merritt put on mourning forthwith.
But Armstrong had been studying
the situation and was not easily daunt-
ed. He was a man whose opinion car
ried weight, and from the very first he
had maintained that while $4,000 or TO-
900 might be men enough to hold Ma
Mia, $4,000 might not be enough to sub
due at once the forces of Aguinaldo in
case they should turn upon the Ameri.
cans, which. said he, placidly, they will
most certainly do before we are a year
older.
The Dudes, therefore, much to their
disgust, We're kept steadily at work.
Other regiments, profiting by example,
followed suit; but in others still, a
small proportion of their membership,
believing, as they said, that the Jig
was up" took to lawless and unhal-
lowed expression of their disgust and
became thereby a nuisance to the
neighborhood. San Franciscans, who
had wept c%opiously when others sailed
away, would have seen these patriots
sent into exile without shedding q tear.
Every man of this command will
yet be needed and yet be sent" said
Armstrong. So. too, did the veteran
division commander, and the brigade
took heart accordingly. The last of the
regulars, with the recruit detachments
for regiments already in the Philip
pines, had been shipped to Honolulu,
there to await orders, and September
seemed destined to go by without a
change for the better in the prospects
of the men still left in camp about the
