FRANKFORT-ON-T HE-ODER. Sep
TENDER n.-Major- General Young and
Brigadier-General Wood, and their aides
de-camp, Lieutenants Mckinley and Nc
Coy, charged with the cavalry led by
Emperor William to-day. The Americans
did not draw their swords, but they rode
with the Garde du Corps one of the
household regiments and the Emperor's
body guard. This charge was the climax
of the manoeuvres. About 5000 horsemen,
lancers, cuira ssiers and dragons fell
upon the flank of the retreating Blues
defending army and captured thirty of
the latter's guns and 1000 Of it's infantry.
The cavalry started at daylight, made
twelve-nlile curve, and at about half
past swept over rolling meadows and
upon the ene1ny's forces, which had been
theoretically disorganized by heavy, in
fantry attacks. The 5000 cavalrymen
made a frontage of mile and half,
and in the sunlight, over the open course,
they rushed at a hard gallop, upon the
artillery and infantry, which did not
cease firing until the horsemen were near
at hand. When the cavalry was within
one hundred yards, the infantry quickly
formed into close platoon, which the
horsemen broke up, galloping between the
groups. Several horses fell dead. The
Emperor, mounted on white Arab
horse, directed the NOV. nent, and at the
finish galloped ahead as recklessly as any
trooper. The Empress was present on
horseback.
Major General Corbin and Lieutenant
Colonel John a. Johnston, Earl Roberts,
ard other foreign guests were on hill.
around which the charge was made.
General Corbn said it was the finest mill
tary spectacle he ever saw. Emperor
Williams customary salutation to the
Americans has been 'Well, how's the
khaki brigade?" His Majesty has also
been disposed to chaff the Americans a
little. To-day they wore blue fatigue
uniforms. His sharp eye noted the
charge, and he remarked pleasantly upon
it. The Zeitung. commenting on the SIM
Dlicity of the American uniforms, said:
THE American visitors have no need Of
uniforms to make them look like sol
diers"

Morning.

Eddie Grant, young colored man,
walked into the First Police Station about
half-past l o'clock this morning and asked
that the ambulance be called as he had
been shot in the forehead. But for the
proverbial hardness of his; races head, he
would certainly have been killed, judg-
ing from the location of the wound,
which was bleeding profusey.
He said that he together with five COM
panions, was walking down Venable
street, when suddenly a shot rang out
and a bullet hit him in the head. He had
no Idea where it came from or who shot
it.
There was a crowd some distance in
front of him, but he did not know them,
and they disappeared before he could
reach them.
The ambulance arrived and he was
treated. He lived at 81 Cedar street.
