GEN. lulu REPORT.
It Has Bleached Washington but 7
Has Not Been Published.
SAID TO FAVOR MONTAUK.
Regarded as Certain That That Site Will
" Be Selected—Call Will Probably Go to
Governor, Black To-morrow for Thrte
New Regiments of Infantry—New
York’s ‘ Quota Under New Call—Rail-
" road Officials at Montauk.
Washington, June 7.—The war de-
partment has received the report from
General Frank in regard to the change
of the camp from Hempstead and its
location at Montauk Point.
There is little doubt felt by depart-
ment ofiicials that Montauk has been
definitely determined as the ‘site for the
General Corbin is strongly in favor of
this place, which is almostoenough to
insure its acceptance. The many 31:
vantages possessed by Montauk Point
make it an ideal place for such a. ren—
dezvous, and it is confidently expected
that in a few days Official orders will
be issued designating it as the mobili-
zation point for an army corps.
General Corbin says that the depart-
ment has reached no determination in
regard 'to the movement of the three
New York regiments now at Camp
Black. The adjutant general of the
army has practically completed the ap-
pointment of the troops to be raised
under the new call for volunteers. New
York’s quota will be three regiments of
infantry, which are to be recruited af-
ter the regiments now in the field from
the Empire state have been filled up to
their maximum strength. It is proba-
ble that the call to Governor Black and
the other governors will go out to-
day.
The work of recruiting the regiments
to their 'full number will first be com-
pleted, and after the colonels of the dif-
ferent regiments report that their for-
ces have been brought up to the stand-
ard required by the Hull law, the new
regiments will be Organized.
As heretofore announced, probably
two-thirds of the 75,000 men called for
will be used in filling up the companies
and regiments now in the field, and it
is thought that thje‘balance, which will
constitute about one corps, will be or-
dered.to the camp at Montauk Point.
General Howard Carroll was at the
war department yesterday and made a
strong effort to have the war depart—
meilt assign to New York’s quota some
artillerymen. ..-.: mission was a fail-
ure, and although he told General Cor-
bin that he had a full regiment of light
artillery, armed and equipped for im
mediate service, the department would
not agree to accept the troops. General
Carroll was informed that the rainy
season has set in in Cuba and that it
will be impossible to operate artillery-
men in the soft roads there.
Railroad Officials Visit the Proposed Cam; .
Montauk, L. I., June 7.—Presiden-t
William H. Baldwin, Jr., and a party
of ten railroad officials made a visit to
the proposed military camp near Fort
Pond bay, Montauk, Sunday morning.
The party arrived at an early hour' on
a special train, consisting of. the com-
pany’s inspection car and a parlor
coach. . They were met at Montauk de-
pot and driven in carriages over the
hills and rolling pasture lands near the
plains where it is expected the army
camp will be located.
If the war department decides this
week to order troops to Montauk it is
understood that the construction of a
trolley line connecting Fort Pond bay
with Montauk Point, szx miles to the
cast, will be begun at once.
A Promising Outlook.
' Chicago, 'June 7.—There has—ne—vg
been a time when the railroad situation
in the West looked more promising for
the summer and fall traffic. Crop pros-
pects are generally as good. as can be
desired, and while there are isolated
cases where the small grains have suf-
moisture, conditions on the whole are
favorable for the largest wheat crop on
record. The acreage is so large that
the crop can be reduced 50,000,000 to
75,000,000 bushels from the present esti-
mated yield and still be a record break—
er. Prospects for oats, rye and corn
are also fine, except for the latter in
bottom lands, which are too wet. With
present prospects maintained until the
end of harvest, there will be more grain
in the West to haul to market than
the roads have ever known. This, with
the improved financial condition of the
farmers and of merchants and manu-
facturers, will give the western and
eastern lines all the traffic they can
handle, both East and West bound.
Merchants say they have never sold
as many goods in advance for the fall
trade. nterior retailers are more dis-
posed to place orders, and there is a.
confidence every-
where, both as to prospects for a. con-
tinued unprecedented distribution ‘of
goods at fair profits, and for good earn-
ings for the railways.
Earthquake in Kentucky.
Cincinnati, June 7.——A severe earth-
quake occurred in northern Kentucky,
between 2 and 3 o’clock yesterday
morning. At Paris several persons
were thrown from their beds. At Mays-
ville the vibration lasted thirty seconds
and was very forcible. At Millers-burg
the people were panic-stricken, and
many fled from their homes. At Twing
the shock was felt two minutes, spread—
ing terror among the people. At Cyn—
thiana the shock was accompanied by 1
loud report and at Owingsville meteors
have been falling in the daytime.
To Allow Voting in the Field.
Rochester, June 7.—Senator ‘Johu
Raines of Canandaigua has been direc-
ted by Governor Black to formulate a1
bill covering the election laws, modelled
from the laws of 1895; but changed to
suit the modern law, so that the ab-
sent soldiers or sailors of the state may
retain their vote. -
Oldest New York Mason Dead.
Saratoga, N. Y., June 7.—Levi Hatch,
aged 90, is dead at Hartford, Washing-
ton county. He was the oldest Mason
in the state, and was treasurer of the
Herschel Lodge of Hartford for thirty
He is survived by a. widow and
five sons;
THE MONTEREY ANp MOHlCA‘N. ,
These Iron Clads Will Join. Dewey injtbe '
Philippines. , .
San Francisco, June 7.-j—The Mohican
is believed to be on her way to join the
American fleet in .the Philippines and
the Monterey sailed last night. The
orders to the Mohican are merely to go
FHin‘dfinuT‘ but- it ’ 15' believed that
sealed orders, which will be opened at
that port, direct that she shall proceed
to Manila.
The orlers for the Mohican to sail for
Honolulu came unexpectedly Saturday
night. She ‘was then at Mare island,
and the marine guard was taken from
the Pensacola and transferred to the
Mohican, which early Sunday came
down and anchor'édwnear the Monterey.
A few stores and a large quantity of
mail were put aboard. At fifteen min-
utes past 1 o’clock she weighed anchor.
As she passed out the Golden Gate the
ship of war was saluted by all the
steam vessels in the bay.
The coast, defence vessel Monterey
and the collier Brutus, which will-prob-
ably get away to-day, will go to Hono-
lulu at a. uniform speed of about ten
knots an hour. At this rate it will take
them nine days to cover the distance.

TO REORGANIZE THE THIRTEENTH.
A Chance to Be Given to the New Orga-
nization to Go to the Front.
Albany, June 7.—-Governor Black is
now believed to be considering serious—
ly the question of reOrganizing the
Thirteenth regiment of Brooklyn. He
was led to think favorably of the mat-
ter as the result of a visit made to him
at the Capitol yesterday by a delega-
tion of Brooklyn military officials. in-
terested in the rehabilitation of thegeg-
iment. The delegation included Colonel
Robert B. Woodward. e'x-adjutant of
the Thirteenth regiment; Colonel wu
liam Cary Sanger, formerly its. major,
and General A. L. Barnes, formerly its
colonel. Colonel Woodward and his as-
sociates afterwards called at the ad—
jutant general’s department, where
they further discussed the
which brought them to Albany.
It is not unlikely that Governor Black
will soon issue orders'reorganizing the
Thirteenth regiment on a war basis,
and that to it will be given a chance
to volunteer and to be sent to the front
under the second call for troops.

residing here, were notified by the na-
