ss RECRUITS ARRIVE
 TAKEN TO COVENTRY.
Assigned to Companies in Camp at the
 Lake-Men Like Tentinq Life.


 Monday morning SS recruits arrived taken to the camping ground near Coventry lake After arriving at the camp the men were turned over to the various companies to which they had been assigned. Company L, which is in need of more men than any com pany in the regiment, received four of the recruits, Company 1 received IS and Company K landed 16- of the men At the present time Company Of New Britain has the largest number of men in camp, having a roll call or 110 names. Company K is next with 100 men, while Company l. ranks last with 62 names on the roll.
 The men have passed two nights s under canvas and al are glad to be in the open after being stationed in armories and various other places dur ing the past three months. The mess sergeantS of the companies are kept busy in the city buying supplies for the men. One consideration which gives the men the idea that they will move from their present camping ground most any time is the fact that the mess sergeants are allowed to pur- chase supplies for two or three days, and no longer. The present camping ground will be vacated shortly, as an other lot is being made ready for the men, and as soon as it is in shape the men will change over. Company 1 is supplied with their regular camping tents, but for the present they are quartered in shelter tents A change will probably be made as soon as they get into the other lot.

RESTORATION OF MANCHU
 DYNASTY IMPROBABLE
Overthrow of the Movement Only a
 Matter of Few Days.

Washington, July 9.-Final over throw of the movement In China for restoration of the Manchu dynasty is believed here to be only a matter of a few days. Both official and unOffi- cial despatches have led to the con viction that a solution soon will be found by compromise.
 Latest advices received here report the republicans blocking all -four lines of railroad out of Picking and Chang Hsun, the monarchist com mander, still holding the ancient cap ital In this situation, it is thought both sides are about ready to end the trouble.
 If the revolution is ended thus by a compromise, officials believe it will have had very beneficial effect on China routing the last remnants of Manchuism and establishing a repub- lie more firmly than ever before.
