FORGE WILL 1311 11111131331)
Gen. llIex-riam Notified That Gen. Men‘itt
Has Asked .for an Increase in His Com-
mand from 20,000 to 50,000 Men. Fourth
Manila Expedition at Honolulu Safely.
The Men Aboard Were All Well, .
Washington, D. 0., Aug. 3.—A1though
the war department officials will not
admit that they have any information
of reinforcing further General Mer-
ritt’s forces at Cavite, there is reason
to believe that some of the troop? now
in eastern camps who desire to see
active service will soon find the oppor-
tunity unless the government shall
change its present plans with respect
to the Philippines.
It is believed to be necessary even if
our claim is limited to the claimsstzfl-
ed in the conditions submitted to Spain,
namely, to the military occupation and
government of :the territory on the
shores of the bay of Manila to furnish
to General Merritt a larger force than
he has now at his command.
It is realized that 20,000 soldiers can
scarcely be expected 'to maintain United
States possessions and protect the in-
habitants over a territory of this ex-
tent, for it must be remembered that
the bay of Manila is twenty—five miles
deep from the entrance at Corridor is-
land to the city of Manila at its head.
It will also be necessary to possess
protection extending some distance
back to the bay in order to make sure
of the preservation of the water works.
Of course a considerable force would
not be necessary if the insurgents un—
der Agulnaldo could be taught to real-
ize their interests lie in the permitting
of United States possession of the ter-
ritory.
But the natives would not keep the
rich loot to be had in Manila without
an adequate force to protect the place.
Then with the growing heat and damp-
mess it is to be expected that illness
will develop among the troops; not to
the extent that it appeared at Santiago,
but sufficient 3) require some of t b
men to be invalided home and their
places to be taken by fresh troops from
the United States. At. present the
large m .jority of General Merri't't’s
f0 ree is composed of troops drawn
from the Pacific coast or far western
San Francisco, C31,, Aug. 3.~—In reply
to a. dispatch received from General
Merritt, now at Cavite, General Merri-
am yesterday cabled that since the de-
parture of the governor general of the
Philippines five transports with 4,897
men had sailed from this port.
Scarcely had the: message been sent
before General Merriam received word
from the 'war department that Gener—
al Merritt had asked to ave his com-
mand increased from 20,000 to 50,000
troops in order to be able to meet any
emergency which may arise on account
of the hostile attitude of Aguinaldo and
the insurgent. forces.
Fourth Expedition at Honolulu.
San Francisco, Cal, Aug. 2.-—-The
steamer Doric, whieh'arrived last eve-
ning, brought news of the arrival at
‘Honolulu of the fourth Manila. expedi-
tion. The Doric left Honolulu last
Monday. The transports arrived there
the day before with all on board well
and on Monday the boys in blue were
ashore and were given a royal reccp~
tion and a grand feast. '
15 and reached Honolulu with-out. mis—
hap to either of the vessels. Great
preparations are being made at the is-
lauds for a grand celebration on the
arrival of the annexation commission—
ers and the raising of the Stars and
Stripes.
The recruits- .o! the First Colorado,
Second Oregon and First Nebraska. by
ordei of Brigadier General King, have
been added to the command of Lieu~
tenant Colonel Barnett, making, with
the recruits of the Tenth Pennsylva-
nia, a force of 1,0000 men. This action
was :taken in order to mobilize the
scattered Camp Merritt forces.
The Dead Chancellor.
Fricdrichsruhe, Aug. 3.-—The emperor
and empress arrive-:1 at the castle yes-
terday afternoon and took their de-
parture after a visit of half an hour.
The stories of friction between the em-
peror and the Bismarcks are somewhat
awakened by the fact that the emperor
upon arriving at the castle kissed
Prince Herbert Bismarck upon both
cheeks.
Two hundred or more persons assemw
bled outside the gates of the castle,
awaiting the arrival of the emperor and
, empress.
It is learned that Prince Bismarck
but a fortune of 30 ,000, 000 marks, of
which Count William Bismarck and
his sister. the Countess von Rantzau.
got 1.000.000 marks each. the remainder
going to Count, now Prince, Herbert
Bismarck. ‘
The family received holy communion
yesterday morning in the castle.
Prince Herbert Bismarck has refus—
ed to allow the sculptor Begas to take
a plaster cast of the features of his
father, or even to make a sketch of his
face.
Prize Steamer Sold.
New York. Aug. 3.——There were only
two bids—$125,000 and $130.000—when
the prize steamship Guido was put up
at auction yesterday at the Mallory line
dock, Pier 20, East river.
The auctioneer refused to give the
name of the first bidder, but it was said
that. the bid was made 'to protect the
sailors who captured the ship and am-
ong whom the prize money will be di-
vided.
For four minutes there was no other
bid. Then XV. D. ”0111an bid $130,000
and- as there was no advance for three
minutes, the ship and her equ'mment
were knocked down to Mr. Munson,
who said he acted for the New York
and Cuba Mail Company.
Our Troops at. Cuamn.
St. Thomas, D. W. 1., Aug. 2,—Tl1e

LEE WILL TAKE CARE OF CUBA.
Preparations Making to Send the Troopl
from Jacksonville.
Washington, Aug. 4.—-Pre-parations
are being made to dispatch Major Gen-
eral Fitzhugh Lee and the Seventh at-
my corps to Cuba immediately 'ter
the conclusion of peace between the
United States and Spain. The plans
provide for the embarkation of the men
within a Week if Spain submits to our
terms of peace.
For the last two weeks the Seventh
corps has been fully equipped by the
assignment of signal officers, engineer
officers and surgeons to duty under
General Lee, and the regiments of his
command have been mobilized at Jack-
sonville, a convenient point for em-
barkation.
It has been generally, understood in
official quarters for some time that
General Lee would have the honor of
entering Havana with the troops of his
command. It was presumed that this
would be done in the fall, when the
campaign in northern Cuba should be
begun, but now that an early peace
seems probable, General Lee will go in
at the head of the garrison force to ad-
minister the military government pen-
ding the installation of the Cuban ad-
ministration.
The troops will be distributed among
the large towns of northern Cuba, no-
tably Havana, M-atanzas and on the
southern coast at Cienfuegos.
It is probable that three or four regi-
ments of General Lee’s corps will be
withdrawn from Jacksonville to join
Wade for Porto Rico.
FROM THE LAKES TO EUROPE. -
Inventor of th 9 Big \lealebacks Think
Such Communication Near.
West Superior, Wis, Aug. 4.—The
largest Whaleback ever built, the stea—
slip at the barge works and gone to the
Missabe ore docks to load with 6,000
tons of ore for her maiden trip down
the great lakes.
Captain McDougall, the inventor of
the whaleback, is of the opinion that
lake boats will soon be going direct
from Superior to Europe. He says:
“Next year the new Canadian canal
will be opened and offer a broader field
for lake carriers. Boats carrying 2,000
to 2,200 tons will be able to go direct
from Duluth to Montreal and Quebec
and thence to England and European
ports. The new canal will permit of
the passage of boats 270 feet long and
drawing _14 feet~_of water. Vessels of
this type can sail on the lakes during
the season of navigation and can then
go to the sea and remain there in com-
mission all winter, when freight rates
on the ocean will demand it. Within
the next five years I expect to see a.
fleet of at least one hundred boats of
this class trading between Duluth and
European ports.”
HOSPITAL! SHIPSAILS.
The Relief Starts for Porto Rico.
New'York, Aug. 4.——The hospital slip
Relief sailed from Pier 17 East river
yesterday afternoon with nearly every-
1111ng in the 'way of delicacies and med-
Ical supplies intended for the sick 56‘—
diers in General Miles’s army aboard.
Surgeon Major Torney who is in charge
of the floating hospital, said that he
would not stop in the lower bay, but
would go direc ,to the ocean and steer
for Ponce, Port ico, which he expects
to reach in four days. In addition to
the seventy members on; the hospital
ship’s working force, two milltar ' sur-
geons accompany the expedition as ob-
servers.
One of t“ ese is Snigeon Kail Rud-
beig of the Suedish army, who ren—
d red valuable assistance to the A111-
erican wounded at Santiago, and the
other is Surgeon General Terry of the
National Guard of this state.
medical officer goes in his capacity of
national guard officer for the purpose
of making observations which may be
useful to the National Guard hospital
corps hereafter.
Revenue Receipts Large.
New York, Aug. 4.——-Receipts for the
sale of. stamps in the Second internal
revenue district amounted to $1,688,-
578.27 for the month of July, vhereas
for the same month last year the re-
ceipts were only $253,549.86. The differ-
ence of $1,435,028.41 represents the am-
ount of revenue raised for the govern-
ment by the sale of war stamps in the
second district alone.
Internal Revenue Collqctm Treat said
that the sale of revenue stamps now
amounted- to about $15 000 a day. He
now had every variety of stamp is
by the goveinment for the war tax on
hand, and instead of a rush, he said,
there was a steady sale of proprietary
and documentary stamps.
Misunderstandings of the law are
growing fewer in his district and things
are settling down to a systematic b3.-
SIS.
The Carlisl Up rising.
from Barcelona says a formidable ris—
ing of Carlists has taken place near Le-
rida, Catalonia.
Lerida is a city of Spain”, in Catalo—
nia, and capital of the province of Le-
rida. As the key of Aragon and Cata-
lonia, it is one of the most important
military points in Spain. It possesses
great strength, being surrounded by
walls flanked with bastions and by a
wet fiosse, It is defended by a castle
and several tittterl‘es.

London, Aug. 4.-—The Madrid corre-

that a Carlist rismg is reported at Ven—
ta de Banes, south of Palencia.
Days as Cruisers Ended.
New York, Aug. 4.—The International
Navigation Company has received in-
formation from Washington that the
charters to the government of .the Am-
erican line vsteamships St. Louis and St.
Paul will be vacated as soon as these
auxiliary cvruisers can be returned
from Porto Rican waters. The Yale and
Harvard; formerly the .
York, will be utilized by the -war d'e-
partment instead of bythe navy. and
the charters will be transferred at
once. The release and exchange of the
ships mean a saving of $10, 000 a day to
the navyr department, while only $5, 000
{a day will be saved to the government.

To this Company he has trans erred placer claims on Hunker and
Gold Bottom Creeks, the “ Marguerite” Quartz Mine, his Saw Mill,
his Timber Lease, that virtually monopolizes the saw timber on the

The Company also owns the S. S.“ Morgan City” now earning $20, 000 per
month, and has shipped up the Yukon several hundred tons of merchandise,
for trade, upon \\ hich a very large profit 15 assured. The U. S. Government
