DEWEY'S CHICAGO TRIP.
Final Arrangements Made for the
Visit of Admiral to the
Western City.

Washington, April 1O.-The Chicago
B. Conkey and j. NJ. Glenn, had final
interview with Admiral Dewey Mon.
day. No mention was made of poll.
tics, the admiral's only allusion to the
matter being that since he had ac-
cepted the invitation to visit Chicago
last October conditions had SO
changed that he was accepting no fur
ther invitations. He assured the com
mittee that he was glad to accept the
hospitality of the city of Chicago. He
told the committee he had received in
vitations from various organizations
there to become their guest, but had
not accepted them. He had placed him
self solely in the hands of the city of
Chicago. He requested that there be
no separate entertainments for him
self and Mrs. Dewey. He wished mat
ters to be so arranged that she could
attend all the functions at which he
would be present. The admiral, who
received the committee in most cor.
dial manner, was assured that his
wishes in this respect would be car
ried out, and also was informed that
arrangements had been made to have
his son, who is now resident of Chi
cago, participate in the various enter
tainments.
The admirals party, consisting of
himself and Mrs. Dewey, Lieut.. Cald-
we'll, Mr.. Maddy, of the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad, Chinese servant and
Mrs. Dewey's maid, will leave this city
in special train over the Baltimore
& Ohio on April 20, in time to reach
Chicago and rest before the ball AT
the Auditorium on the night of the
Both, the eve of the second anniver-
sary of Manila bay. The train will be
one of the handsomest ever run over
the Baltimore e. Ohio tracks. Admiral
and Mrs. Dewey will occupy President
cowen's private car.
No stops will be made between
Washington and Chicago, as the ad-
miral does not wish the trip to have
the appearance of stumping tour.
After leaving Chicago, however, the
party will take n 12-day tour through
the Mississippi and Ohio valleys. So far
as outlined, this will include stop of
one day in Jacksonville, ILL.,, two days
in st. Louis, two in Memphis, two in
Louisville, two in Nashville and one

ments had been requested of Otis. No
official notice had been given him re-
garding the matter, but he stated that
the forces under Young and Bell were
inadequate. Gen. Bell, in particular,
is greatly in need of troops, and he had
heard through direct sources that his
operations, owing to the lack of
troops, had been greatly hampered
time and time again. Gen. Corbin
went on to say that Otis has directly
under his command more men than he
really needs, and that beyond all prob
ability the requests of Young and Bell
would be Immediately granted, and
that they would be supplied with
troops from the forces now in the vi
cinity of Manila. In conclusion the
adjutant general said that with such
reenforcements as desired Gems. Young
and Bell would actively engage the in
surgents and attempt, if possible, to
restore peace in the provinces of Lu-
LOn.

IN THE ARMY ONE HOUR.
brief War Experience of n Northern
Soldier mt Drury's BluG on
the james River.

Hundreds of British soldiers" said
a veteran OF the Eighty-fifth Pennsyl-
v3nia, who never missed n roll call
from April, 1861, to AppomattoX,
were wounded at Colenso and Magers-
fontein without seeing the enemy and
without getting fairly into battle.
There was fellow in our regiment
who served only an hour, who never
saw confederate or the rebel lines,
and who was never in n battle, and yet
who was shot and severely wounded by
q confederate, and was carried from
the field to the hospital and from there
sent home permanently disabled.
"Now, you know, it was claimed be-
fore the war that the wings of Virginia
knew one another by the instincts of
gentlemen. During our service, which
was mostly in Virginia, we came to
know the confederates by the same
token. 1t never made any difference
how thick the timber and brush was,
we managed to know about where the
confederate line was watching for
I'VE uns.' This could not be said of
recruit named John Smith, of Perry
opolis, Pa, who reached us during the
fight of May 20, 1864, at Drury's Bluff,
on the James river, below Richmond,
Va. Our base of supplies was at Ber-
muda Hundred, and the sergeant in
charge of the recruits was anxious to
turn his men over and get his receipt
and join his own regiment. AS soon as
he landed he marched his men to the
front and reported to our colonel with
our quota, our regiment being on the
skirmish line at the time.
1T was one of those little affairs
common in the Army of the Potomac
in the campaign of 1864, in which full
regiments were deployed on the
skirmish line, and as compared with
Wilderness, Cold Harbor was called
simply hot skirmish. When the SER
geant found our colonel he turned over
his men and got his receipt, and the
colonel sent the new men down the line
in charge of the adjutant. Smith was
assigned to company b, and Cap
Dial showed him tree and told him to
run for it and bang away. He reached
1he, tree, but had not fired shot and
hal not been there one minute when he
was shot through the left thigh by a
sharpshooter and was carried to the
rear and sent to the hospital at Ber-
muda Hundred. He was not with the
regiment an hour, all told, from the
time he reported until he was carried
off the field, disabled, and when he got
better he was sent home discharged.

JEFFERSON DAVIS CApToR.
Passing of General Henry Hnrnden
and His Long War
Record.

Gen. Henry Harnden, department
commander of the G. A. r. who died
recently in Madison, WIS, had bril-
liant military record. and commanded
the detachment that effected the cap
ture of JEFF Davis.
Gen. Harnden was born in Whining
ton, Mass, March 4, 1923, of parents de-
scended from the earliest Puritan col
onists of that state. He received COM
mon school education, but found the
New England mill life, to which it was
intended to apprentice him, altogether
too tame for one of his spirit, and at the
age of 1S he ran away to sea on a vessel
bound for the coast of Africa. He re-
manned on the sea several years, during
which time he doubled Cape Horn twice
and visited the present site of San
Francisco in 1889, before the gold dis
coveries that later made that region ia
nous.
BY the captain selling the vessel he
was left practically stranded in Peru,
but finally succeeded in shipping home,
after an absence of five years. On his
return he found the Mexican war on
and promptly started for the front, and
was in the transport service for time,
helping to bring back the American
wounded from the battle of Palo Alto,
but being obliged to return home OIL
account of failing health. In 1850 he
made an overland trip to California,
replete with many adventures, and en-
gagged in gold mining until 1852, when
he returned to Massachusetts.
He had been married to Mary A.
Lightner, of his native town, previous
to his California trip, and in 1852 they
| moved to Wisconsin, settling in the
town of Sullivan, Jefferson county, ON a
farm. He next moved to Ripon, Wis,
where he was operating n sawmill when
the civil war broke out.
At Lincoln's call for troops Harnden
called his hands together and told
them the mill must stop; that he in.
tended to enlist, and advised them to
which they did to n man. He enlisted
| as private in the First Wisconsin cav.
| airy July Is, 1861, was promoted to
sergeant January /, 1862, then captain
which rank he held when the regiment
went to Benton Barracks, Mo-, where
it was first sent. He participated in TIE
campaigns in Missouri, Arkansas, Ten
nessee and Georgia, and participated
in many battles and skimrishes. In
January. 1865, he was made major
then lieutenant colonel, and March Is
1865, brigadier general.
In n cavalry fight at Dallas, Ga, hi'
horse was killed and Col. Harnden wa,
shot in the shoulder and had his right
arm broken. He participated in the
fight at Duck Creek bridge, Tennessee
when the bridge fell down, letting ;
portion of the regiment into the icy COLI
water. Col. Harnden's horse wa

drowned and he was carried down
stream two miles before being rescued.
At the storming of Fort Tyler, Ca, he
was wounded by rifle ball.
In May, 1865, he was selected by Gen.
Wilson to take detachment of the
First Wisconsin cavalry and cross the
country towards Savannah and head
off jeff Davis, who was reported to be
making his way south through South
Carolina and Georgia. Gen. Harnden
rose from n sick bed and performed his
duty so well that it resulted in the cap
ture of the confederate chief at Irwin
vile, Ga. At the capture of Davis an
unfortunate collision occurred in the
darkness between Harnden's men and
those of the Fourth Michigan cavalry,
which resulted in the death of two
men. A congressional investigation
eXonerated Gen. Harnden from any
blame in the affair. On July 10, 1865,
while at Edgefield, Tenn, Gen. Harm
denis horse fell and rolled, breaking his
riders leg. Gen! Harnden was mus
tered out on July 10, 1865, .. .
On his return home he was imme-
diately elected to the Wisconsin legis-
lature from jefferson county. In 1866
Gov. Fairchild appointed him trustee
of the soldiers orphans home. In 1879
he was appointed internal revenue col
lector, which Office he held for ten
years. He then followed farming for a
number of years and later removed to
Madison In 1899 he was elected de,
partment commander of the grand
army for Wisconsin.-Chicago Trib.

auIned by Bucket shops.

Boston, April 11.-Herbcrt f. Milli-
gan, bookkeeper of the Union Loan
g. Trust Co., was arrested Tuesday,
charged with embezzlement of $4,000.
1T is understood he has confessed.
Milligan is 81 years of age and mar
ried. His peculations, it is said, have
been going on since last July, the ir-
Irregularities being concealed by falsi-
flying the books. He spent money lib
orally in bucket shops, and it is said
that receipts for money from these
places aggregating nearly the entire
amount of the shortage have been
found. He was taken to prison and
has not secured bail.
