CAMP DODGE, April 26-(Specialto to
the Reyiew)-The principal interest
in military and patriotic circles cen
ters in paying tribute to the fighting
168th regiment, Of the famous Rain DOW
division, which is expected to reach
Camp Dodge early in May. The men
sailed last week on the Leviathan and
there will be around 1900 of them.
They are expected to reach New, York
the first Of the week. A committee,
headed by Mayor Fairweather, left
Des MOines Thursday to be in New
York upon the landing of the soldiers,
to extend greetings from home. 1t Is
presumed that the men will first. be
taken to$a camp near New York for a
/ few days rest and then the journey
for Camp Dodge will be undertaken.
Details for the home coming are al.
ready under way. 1t is announced
from Washington that three troop
trains will convey the men to ejDes
MO1nes, Those trains will come over
the Chicago Great Western by way OF
Dubuque and Waterloo; over the Rock
Island by way Of Davenport and Ced'
ar Rapids and over the Burlington
and the Rock Island by way Of Ottum-
wa and Oskaloosa.
The trains will be timed so as to
reach eastern Iowa early in the morn
ing. This will give the troops a day
trip across Iowa to Des Moines. 1t
will also give the people of eastern
Iowa chance to see the troops or
some of them at the six cities named
Dubuque, Waterloo, Davenport, Ced.
ar Rapids, OttumWa and Oskaloosa.
People of western Iowa will, it is ex-
pected, come to Des Moines to see the
regiment.
'tThis is what might be called
strategic concentration ON Des MOines,'
said Colonel McAndrews, In active
charge Of routing of troops. I'VE are
much pleased with the arrangements
as to- the Iowa troops and have en-
deavored to give the people of east.
ern Iowa as much opportunity as prac.
ticable to see them on their way to
Des M0ines. We hope to have the
trains so scheduled as to reach the
west bank Of the Mississippi early in;

MUines by daylight, reaching there in,
the evening, with parade and recep-
tion there the next day. After that

rangement for the Iowa troops and
for Iowa.''
