was sent about for all of Longstreet's
men to go out to the high water
mark" of the Confederacy on Gene
terry Hill tomorrow morning and
give her rousing reception.
When these plans got abroad
through the Confederate camps the
rumor spread that Mrs. Pickett also
was here, and Pickett's gallant sur
vivors planned to pay a like tribute
to her. They were disappointed when
they learned that they could not
meet on Pickett's ground the wife
of their hero. Governor Tener could
not be seen last night and members
of the Pennsylvania Commission
evaded discussion as to why Mrs.
Longstreet had not been invited nor
even taken care of after her arrival.
Some friends of Mrs. Longstreet
are inclined to the belief that the
oversight was due to the fact that
Mrs Longstreet was not born until
after the war and was not the wife
of the Confederate leader during the
time of the war, while others of Long
streets men declare the action of
the Pennsylvania authorities a dis
elimination against Longstreet In
favor of Pickett.

SickIes Calamity Gives Shell
ter Which State of Penn
syIvania Refused.

GETTYSBURG BATTLEFIELD,
Pa. July 3.-Exclusive old Confed-
crate vets who fought under Long
street became indignant today when
they learned that Mrs. Pickett, widow
of General Pickett, and Mrs. John A.
Logan, both of Washington, had
been invited by the State of Penn
sylvania to be it's guests at the gold
en- anniversary celebration of the
battle of Gettysburg, and Mrs. Long
street had been entirely ignored.
This Indignation was increased by
the fact that Mrs. Logan and several
members of her family had been es-
pecially invited by Governor Tener,
of Pennsylvania, and were offered
elaborate quarters In Pennsylvania
Seminary, where the special guest
camp had been established. General
Logan, of course. was not at Get
tysburg. He had been at that time
storming the trenches around Vicks-
burg. Mrs. Logan had accepted for
herself and daughter, Mrs. Tucker,
and they would have come with a
party of friends had Mrs. Logan not
been taken i'll. Mrs. Pickett, 1t de-
velops, did not receive her invitation
until she had entered upon an ex-
tensive lecture engagement before
Chautauquas in the West.
Mrs. Longstreet, who recently was
removed by President Wilson from
her postoffice down in Georgia, re-
NAMED in Washington after making
her protest before the postoffice COM
mittee of the House and arranged to
attend the reunion. The expected in
vita ton did not arrive, so she wrote
the war department, asking for a
tent for herself and party of
friends.
The war department only has juris-
diction over the camp and was I'M
able, under authority of law and
the regulations, to provide for any
woman in the camp. Then she wrote
to the Governor of Pennsylvania. the
Pennsylvania Gettysburg Celebration
Committee and others having to do
with the entertainment and special
arrangements. Some replied cour-
teously, but others were too busy
to reply at ALL so Mrs. Longstreet
grabbed up her baggage and type
writer and came as a newspaper
correspondent. General Liggett,
commanding officer of the camp, has
given her tent for office, but she
had to seek food and shelter else
where. For two nights she slept on
q floor in a cabin of a poor family
nearby and she would have been
compelled to give UP and return to
Washington had not General Sickles
taken her in and given her tent at
his headquarters at the old Rogers
house, half mile from headquarters
to and from which Mrs. Longstreet
walks over the hot and dusty road.
Tonight delegation of Longstreet's
men from Georgia. learning OF her
presence and her tribulations. went
out to the old farm house and gave
her a serenade with the same drums
and flies that led the valiant army
of her husband long since dead. Then
they gave three cheers for the lone
woman, of the Confederacy in the
Gettysburg reunion, and thus she
will be. known throughout the re-
union.

WEST HOBOKEN, N. j., July d.
Former Mayor Charles j. Chandless,
a on-commissioned officer in the
Twentieth New York Independent
Battery, was wounded at the peace
meeting of the Blue and the Gray at
Gettysburg, after escaping without q
scratch in the bloody meeting of fifty
years ago.
The veteran injured his foot so bad
ly that he was compelled to return
home yesterday and is now under the
care of surgeon.
Mr.. Chandless little dreamed that
so many years after the war had
ended he would be injured on the
battlefield where all the griszled vet
erans-both "Rebs' and "Yanks"-
greet one another affectionately as
brothers.
On Sunday morning Mr.. Chandless,
who is 20 years old. was watching the
regulars unpack some boxes, when he
suddenly lurched forward, and in try
ing to steady himself stepped on a
board from which long nail pro-
truded. The nail penetrated the ball
Of his right foot. He received imme-
1iate treatment at the field hospital,
but fearing that the injury might
prove serious he returned to his home
much disappointed at having to leave
the boys so soon.

Governor, Unannounced, StroIIs
Through Streets of Gettys-
burg Camp.
IFron a star Correspondents

GETTYSBURG, July 3.--Without
previous announcement and without
making his presence known at head
quarters, Governor Fielder paid a
visit to the New Jersey camp of vet
Grams yesterday afternoon with Mrs.
Fielder and Adjutant- General Will
lam F. Sadler. The governor strolled
through the four streets of the New
Jersey tents, shaking hands and stop
ping to chat with groups of men as
he met them.
After an hour of visiting with the
veterans the governor and his party
went in their automobile to Carlisle
for the night.
The governors father was an officer
in the New Jersey militia, and many
comrades of the elder Fielder spoke
of the fact to the governor.
At noon tomorrow the big flag at
camp headquarters will be lowered to
half-mast and every army officer and
enlisted man on the camp grounds
will stand "at attention" for five min
utes In memory Of the men in blue
and gray who lost their lives in the
battle of Gettysburg. Orders to this
effect were issued by the camp COM
mandant this afternoon. President
Wilson will probably be in camp at
noon tomorrow, and 1t is expected
that he, with the 10000 veterans and
visitors likely to be here, will Join in
this impressive and solemn mark Of
respect to the nations dead.
Many of the Jersey vets are leav-
ing camp today in small detachments
or singly. A special train leaving at
8 o'clock Saturday morning will take
those who remain at that time.
Handshaking and reunions were
general throughout the camp last
night and this morning. The formal
exercises In the main tent were
hardly noticed by the vets. who found
more interest In their personal remi-
niscences.
Late last night thousand men Of
the New Jersey and Massachusetts
camps, headed by a band, paraded
through the Confederate camp, and
at o'clock this morning a Con-
federate band headed delegation of
graycoats who returned the visit and
serenaded the Massachusetts, and
New Jersey vets.
The reunion proper will be brought
to q close this afternoon. when the

of the Passaic Equal Suffrage League,
will act as hostess.
The campaigners expect to visit
twenty-six cities and towns in their
Journey. The plans for the entire
trip have not yet been completed,
but the ballot fighters say they will
sleep in the open most of the time,
using their wagons as shelters. or
will be the guests of the various po-
l;tical organizations in the cites In
which they stop over night.
Complete details Of the journey are
to be arranged tonight at the final
meeting at the suffrage headquarters,
279 Halsey street.
The one obstacle that Ia worrying
the ardent enthusiasts Is the lack or
bathing facilities that a caravan
journey offers.
The fair suffragettes must battle oc-
casionally you know, for their faces
must be rosy and their complexion
clear IL they would win converts.
"But how are we going to get
bath?" That's the question they will
try to solve at the meeting tonight.
One of the caravaners suggested
carrying along a folding bath tub.
but this was discarded because the
tub might collapse when someone
was using 1t.
Then 1t was suggested that they
take bathing suits and take occa-
slonal dips In the creeks and streams
they cross. This also was "nolle
pressed" as too public an exhibition.
Then the matter was left for discus
sion and settlement at tonight's meet
ing, when a hose will be suggested
to be used as a shower bath, 1t Is

Giving up their vacations for the
sake of the cause" Miss Rose Weiss,
of the Women's Political Union, and
party of twenty young suffrage en-
thusiasts will start on caravan tour
| of the State tomorrow morning at
| 10 O'Clock.
The start will be made from Mill
tary Park, in this city, where the
members of the political union and
other suffrage organizations will be
assembled to wish the "Caravaners"
good luck on their novel journey.
The young women will be gone six
weeks. and in that time expect to
win scores of women and men over
to the cause.
If all the present plans are carried
out the journey will be made in true
emigrant fashion. Canvas covered
wagons will be used If possible, and
and no men will be allowed on the
trip. The women will attempt to
demonstrate that they can manage
the entire campaign alone, caring for
the horses, repairing their wagons,
etc.. as well as go about seeking
sympathizers.
Other members of the union tried to
persuade Miss Weiss and her follow
ers to take few men along in case
of emergency.
Advise Male Escorts.
"They may come in handy, you
know" the other said, in case you
get stuck in the mud or a tramp at
tempts to steal your provisions" But
Miss Weiss was adamant. She dis
dained, with the haughiness of an
ardent militant, the assistance of a
few weak men,"
IT will have more courage with six
loyal sympathizers at my back than
with q dozen men to depend upon"
she said gallantly.
"If we get stuck in the mud we'll
get out by the use of our wits and as
for the tramps, you forget that we
will carry our trusty hatpins.' And
thus 1t was all settled. and one of the
most novel methods of spreading the
gospel of suffrage throughout the
State was launched.
Miss Rose Weiss will lead the pro-
cession on fiery white charger Sc
cured for the OCCASION. Her two lieu
tenants. Mrs. May Walsh and Mrs.
E. A. Hyland, will also be mounted.
