Have Done for Skin-Tortured Babies.
My little sister had cow-pox. She suffered
terribly. Tried everything, no good. Scabs

CUTICURA SOAP cured her in three weeks.

Second [Expedition Erém San
Francisco With 2,500 Men.-

MORE TRAN SPORTS NEEDED

General Merritt Has Arrived at San Fran-
cisco and Assumed Command of the
Manila Expedition—Warships to Act as
Consorts to the Three Transports—Naval

Militia. Has Been Ordered to the llIohi-

x

can .

Washington, May 28.—The second de-
tachment of the Philippine expedition,
which it; was expected would leave San
Francisco next Sunday, may be held
until next Thursday. This possible
change is due to the fact that the war
department succeeded yesterday morn-
ing in chartering two more ships on the
Pacific coast f-oruse as transports.

These are the China. and the Colon
of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company.
The contract was entered into shortly
before midnight Thursday night, when
Assistant Secretary Meiklejohn suc-
ceeded in having a telegram delivered
to C. P. Huntington of the Pacific Mail
Company as the latter was en route to
the East, at some point in Iowa.

The contract price is $45,000 per
month for the China and $22,000 per
month for the Colon. Both ships are
now at San Francisco. The Colon is
loaded with a cargo for Central Amer-
ica, but it will be immediately taken
off. The Centennial ,t‘he Ohio and the
Zealandla. will be ready to sail with 2,-
500 soldiers for Manila next Sunday, but
it is possible that these will be held
so that the six ships can go together
on Thursday, bearing about 5,000 men.
The China will carry about 2,000 and
the Colon about 1,000. The government
is also negotiating for the Queen,
Cleveland and Puebla of the Pacific
Coast Steamship Company.

 

San Francisco, May 28.—Major Gen-.'
eral Merritt, governor general of the
Philippines arrived in this city Thurs-
day night. All future movements of
the Manila expedition will be subject
to his orders. He will act only under
instructions from Vt’ashington. General
Otis will accompany the second expe-
dition. The work of equipping the
troops will now be in charge of Colonel
James W. Pope, chief quartermaster of
General Merritt’s staff, who also ar-
rived Thursday evening.

After a careful inspection of the 7,000
troops now at Camp Richmond, it was
semi-officially announced that the sec-
ond Manila expedition would probably
be composed oi the First. Colorado regi-
ment, 1,008 men; the First Nebraska
regiment, 1,020 men, and the Thirteenth

- Minnesota regiment 1,030 men, a total

of 3,058 volunteers,
. Boats at the Navy Yard.

The U. S. S. Philadelphia, after being
thoroughly'refi-tted. left the dry dock
at Mare Island Thursday afternoon,
and the Monterey took her place. The
bottom of the Monterey will be scraped
and painted, after which she will be
ready for Her trip to Manila. The col-
lier Peter Jebson (renamed Brutus),
purchased by the government, with her
cargo of 4,800 tons of coal, for $270,000,
is also being prepared for sea. Her en-
gines and boilers were inspected and
pronounced in excellent condition. Rap-
id fire guns were put on board at once.
She will make the trip to the Philip-
pines in company with the Monterey.

A crew of naval militia from San
Francisco, numbering fifty-six, has
been ordered to the Mohican, which will
depart soon with ammunition and
stores for the Hawaiian naval station.

There are now at the navy yard fif-
teen United States ships, as follows:
Philadelphia, Monterey, Yorktown,
Alert, Mohican, Pensacola, Independ—
ence, Unadllla, Monitor, Commanche,
Hartford, Thetis, Ranger, N-lng Chow
and Peter Jebsen. .

GEN. MILES AT CAMP ALGER.

He Now Intends to Leave Tampa To-
morrow Night.

Washington, May 28,—Major General
Miles and staff will visit Camp Alger.
Va., to-day to make an inspection of
the regiments encamped there. His
visit will occur at the same time as that
of President McKinley and Secretary
Alger. .

General Miles expects to leave for
Tampa to-night. Complete arrange-
ments for going on Wednesday had
been made. when the trip was sudden-
ly postponed.

At that time it was sald that he
would leave for the South within two
or three days.

DEWEY DAY IN KANSAS CITY. ~

 

The Manila Hero Honored by a Parade
. of 30,000 People.

Kansas City, Mo., May 28.—Yesterday
was Dewey day, set apart by the com-
mon council for the celebration of the
victory of Manila bay. Both Kansas
Citys joined in making the most popu-
lar demonstration ever held here, and
crowds from a dozen surrounding Mis-
souri and Kansas itowns lent their aid.

The street parade was the feature of
the day. It contained no less than 30,000
people. Of this number 10,000 were
school children who marched eight
abreast and formed a division at mile
long, each child carrying a. flag.

 

WATTERSON ADDRESSES TROOPS.

ernor Bradley, of the troops now here

introduced Mr. Waztterson, who was
given an ovation.

PREPARINflORTUBA

SHAFTER, LEE, WHEELER

All the Regulars and Volunteer Troops in
Florida Formed Into Corps, Divisions’
and Brigades Yesterday —— The Fifth
Corps Under General Shafter and the

 

Seventy—First New York Regiments Ex-
pected to Lead the Way.

Tampa Fla, May 28.—The-formation
of all the regular and volunteer troops
massed in Florida into corps, divisions
and brigades, was completed Thursday
in a. general order ifsned by Major Gen—
eral Shafter, commanding the Fifth
Army Corps.

The Fifth Corps, which will probably
be the first to land on Cuban soil, is
made up entirely of regular troops with
the exception of two regiments of vol-
unteers at Lakeland,’ the Seventy-first
New York and Second Massachusetts,
This corps alsoemfcraces the Cavalry
division, composed of the First ~ and
Tenth regiments at Lakeland, and ‘the
Third, Sixth and Ninth at Tampa, un-
der command of Major General Joseph
Wheeler; the artillery brigade' under
command of. Lieutenant Colonel W. F.
Randolph, and ‘the signal corps, in all
nearly 18,000 men. '

The Seventh Corps, under command
of Major General Fitzhugh Lee, em-
braces all the volunteer trops at Tam-
pa, five regiments, and the troops at
Jacksonville, or between 8,000 and 9,000
men. '

W‘ashington, May flit—The prepara—
tions for invading Cuba at this season
in defiance of all that'has been Said
about the imminent-e of the summer
rains and the unwh’olesome, climate,'ar'e
defended. here by many On the ground
that even if these adverse conditions
force us to defer our aggressive cam-
paign till fall, we shall have saved just
so much time in moving our men and
munitions of war and planting them on
Lhe island , -

It is contended that landings for. men
and siege guns can be effected at points
where they will be comparatively. safe
from attack on the land side, especially
if protected ’by our ships The idea is
that a campaign by the Spaniards
against, such fortified encampments
would be as difficult in the rainy season
as a con'ipaign by our troops against
the Spanish, and hence that we Would
have little to fear from that quar—
ter. ,1;

. ' Plan Campaign. jjlx, -

The plan of campaign which contem-
plates the landing of a large siegetforce
on the north shore of Cuba, in the prey-
lnce of Santiago de Cuba to workaacross
and attack the town of Santiago from
the land side, finds least' favor inane
quarters where the topography ofthe
country is best known. Thecounvtry is
mountainous, and to take artillery
across by steep and muddy roads is
deemed impracticable. Indeed, it is
doubtful whether there is any good
point for landing a siege force to take
Santiago from the rear.

The key to the whole Cuban situation,
as it is recognized by all the military
authorities here is the strip of territory
perhaps one hundred and fifty miles
.long by eighty miles. ‘wide, which takes
in Havana on the nor-tn and Clenfuegos
on the south coast, with the uninterrup-
ted rail connection between them.

ROYAL ARCANU M ASSESSMEN TS.

New llIethod Adopted by the Supreme
Chapter of Cleveland.

Cleveland, 0., May 28,—A new method
of levying assessments was adopted
Thursday by the supreme chapter of
the Royal Arcanum. It provides for
an emergency fund of about $500,000 a
year, and dces away with the cutting
down of pertificates in amount year by
year after the holders reach the age
of sixty years. Each of the 196,000
members will also pay a yearly assess-
ment of eighty cents lo meet the run—
ning expenses.

It was voted not to legislate in any
manner against applicants for mem-
bership who are likely to see service in
the war with Spain.
