CHICAGO, July 4.—The people of Chicago took a unique and patriotic manner of celebrating Independence day. A week ago everything was well advanced for one of the largest pyrotechnic displays in the history of this city. Everything had been arranged on an elaborate scale. Speeches were to have been made by ex-President Benjamin Harrison, United States Senator William Mason and numerous other prominent men. All the preparations came to a sudden stop several days ago when the Army and Navy League sent their missionaries among the men and argued that the money expended for fireworks and other accessories could be put to better use by donating the money to the support of the families of the soldiers fighting before Santiago. Asa result the treasury of the Army and Navy League has been enriched by some thousands of dollars. No organized celebration was, therefore, held in Chicago to-day.

Ind., July 4.—The conference between the window-glass manufacturers’ and the cutters’ national wage committees has ended in a disagreement.

The difference between the blowers and gatherers and the manufacturers is also 5 per cent. The-wage settlement is becoming complicated already by action being filed in the courts to compel President Burns to call a national convention of window-glass workers.

Ernst and Hains to Proceed from Camp Thomas to Charleston or Savannah. - e 4,000 SOLDIERS ON THE WAY - e ARTILLERY AND INFANTRY NOW ON TRANSPORTS AT TAMPA. ——-e The Fourth Celebrated by Volunteers at Alger and Other Camps—Hoosiers at Chickamauga Ready to Go. e WASHINGTON, July 4.—Reinforcements are to be hurried to General Shafter as rapidly as steamships can carry them, notwithstanding the fact that additional troops are not so badly needed as was indicated by the developments of Friday and Saturday. The dispatches received by the War Department from General Shafter show a confidence In his present ability to control the situation. In fact, he says he Is master of the city of Santiago, which his troops entirely surround. The position he occupies makes it impossible either for the Spanish forces to evacuate the city or for General Pando’s troops to reinforce them. During the altemoon Secretary Alger. General Miles and General Corbin had a conference with the President at the White House concerning the sending of reinforcements to Shafter and it was determined to take' no chances, but to send the troops at once. The auxiliary cruiser St. Paul is now at New York taking on a cargo of ammunition for Admiral Sampson’s fleet. Owing to the necessity of her early departure it was not originally Intended to send troops by her, but this afternoon it was decided she should take one regiment. In accordance with that determination orders were issued this evening for the Eighth Ohio Infantry, Col. Charles V. Hard and Lieutenant Colonel Charles Dick, the Veglment known as “The President’s Own,” because It comes from the Immediate vicinity of President McKinley’s home, city of Canton, to proceed to New York and embark on the St. Paul for Santiago. The St. Paul will leave New York late Wednesday afternoon and will make a flying trip to Cuba. The Eighth Ohio Is one of the three regiments of General Garretson’s brigade, the other two being the Sixth Massachusetts and the Sixth Illinois. Both of the remaining regiments will be held under waiting orders and will move probably In a few days. The plan is to send them to Santiago by either the Yale or the Harvard, both of which are expected shortly at Newport News. The Eighth Ohio will leave Camp Alger early Wednesday morning for New York and will board the steamer Immediately upon arrival there. The regiment will be accompanied by the brigade commander, General Garretson. In addition to the troops at Camp Alger, which are to be sent to Santiago, the brigades of General Ernst and General Hains, now at Chickamauga, will be sent within a few days. General Ernst’s brigade consists of the Third Wisconsin, the Fifth Illinois and First Kentucky. Gen. Hains’s brigade consists of the Ninth Pennsylvania, Second Missouri and First New Hampshire. These troops will be sent to Savannah or Charleston, where steamers have been obtained to carry them directly to Santiago. In addition to the troops now eg route to Cuba from Tampa the force to be sent within a few days will reinforce General Shafter to the extent of about ten thousand men. Lpwards of four thousand men are now on their way to reinforce General Shafter. A most important contingent is six batteries of light artillery, consisting of twen-ty-four officers and 628 men, which left Tampa yesterday. They are made up .of two companies each from the Third, Fourth and Fifth artillery regiments. On June 30 the First Illinois Regiment of forty-six officers and 596 men pulled out of Tampa and yesterday at 12 o’clock the First District of Columbia Volunteer Regiment, consisting of thirty-six officers and 817 men, in command of Colonel George H. Harries, left the same place. On June 29 a vessel left with 950 men aboard, comprising recruits to fill a number of the existing regiments now in Cuba to their maximum strength provided by law. The vessels are to assemble at Key West, w r here a naval convoy will escort them to Shafter’s relief. * STUDEBAKER’S MEN READY. First Regiment at Tampa Recruited to the New War Limit. Correspondence of the Journal. PORT TAMPA CITY, Fla., camp of the One-hundred-and-fiftv-seventh Indiana regiment, July 2.—The One-hundred-and-fifty-seventh Indiana is prepared to embark on very short notice and Is anxiously awaiting the return of the transports from Shafter’s first expedition. The battle at Santiago is likely to have a decided effect of changing plans for the embarkation and destination. During the last few days 284 recruits have arrived for Colonel Studebaker’s regiment, bringing the total strength to 1,305 men. This is the best showing of any regiment In the brigade at the present time. The maximum strength of a company is 106, and all of the companies except B and C, of Fort, Wayne, have this number. An effort is being made to have the nine men necessary to bring Company B to its maximum strength and the fifteen men necessary for Company G brought from Fort Wayne during the early part of tli@ week. r This morning about II o’clock a surprise was sprung on the regiment which will keep the men on the alert in the future. Gen. Robert H. Hall gave orders to sound the c ?U“ toar ? l8 V and aJI of a sudden the shrill call of the bugle sent forth the call *'to arms.” The sound had no sooner struck the ears or the men when everybody was hurrying to Quarters as if the threatened invasion of Florida by the Spanish was a real fact. The last note of the call had no sooner died away when the companies could be seen coming on double time to the place designated by the general, who was on hand with watch in hand awaiting the arrival of the companies. Company B of Fort Wayne, had the honor of being ’the first one to report. Every man was fully equipped for a skirmish with the enemy had there been one near. Capt. Charles E Reese deserves special credit for this as it is due to his good management and ’untiring vigilance that his company ranks as one of the best in the regiment. There is a report among the men that some night thev will be disturbed from their midnight slumbers by a repetition of this ceremony Company D, of North Manchester, has received orders to continue guarding the
water works plant at St. Petersburg, Just across the bay from Tampa, until further orders. The first ten days have expired and the men are very glad that their stay has been prolonged. They now will probably stas' there until the regiment receives orders to move, when they will also be taken along. Major Feaser and First Lieut John T. Dunbar have returned from the recruiting trip in northern Indiana. They are very glad that arrived here before the regiment left for foreign shores. Adjutant H. K. Scott is expected here to-morrow. B. J. E. * MAY MOVE TO-DAY. Troops at Chickamauga Ready to Start South—Patriotic Exercises. CHATTANOOGA. Tenn., July 4.-The Fourth of July was celebrated here to-day with an enthusiasm and a genuine spirit of patriotic fervor never before shown in this city. Elaborate exercises were held at the big city auditorium, into which six thousand citizen^ - and soldiers were crowded. Erlg. Gen. Fred D. Grant was present in full uniform and read the Declaration of Independence. General Grant was given a great ovation, the immense audience cheering for several minutes when he appeared on the rostrum, A patriotic address was delivered by Col. Govan, of the First Mississippi, who was a gallant Confederate soldier, who ‘‘gloried in the fact that he now wore the uniform of a United States officer.” Rev. Dr. H. C. McCook, chaplain of the Second Pennsylvania Volunteers, also delivered a patriotic address. Chaplain McCook is a member of the famous family of fighting iMcCooks, and his address was seasoned with kindly and fraternal references to the South and was greeted with enthusiasm. The music was furnished by the regimental band of the First Maine Volunteers. A quartet from the First Regiment and a chorus of one hundred voices, local singers sang a number of patriotic airs. The enthusiasm was wild, at intervals Associated Press bulletins announcing the American victory at Santiago being read to the audience. At Camp Thomas the day was celebrated by a national sa.ute fired by a detail from a number of regiments. The Signal Corps gave a display of fireworks this evening. On account of the sick in the hospitals General Brooke issued orders that no fireworks were to be set off in the limits of the camp. Although the officials at Camp Thomas headquarters continue to maintain great secrecy in regard to the movement of troops from here to Cuba, it is generally believed that the movement will begin to-morrow. Fifteen regiments are under emergency orders, and the indications are that the start will be made at once. Preparations are being rushed to-day and a rare scene of activity is witnessed. The regiments which go out first are as follows; First Kentucky. Third Wisconsin. Fifth Illinois. Fourth Ohio. Third Illinois. Fourth Pennsylvania, Sixteenth Pennsylvania. Second Wisconsin. Third Kentucky. Thirty-first Michigan. One-hundred-and-sixtieth IndianaFirst Georgia. Sixth Ohio. One-hundred-and-fifty-eighth Indiana. Fifty-first Wisconsin. Closely following these it is believed will be the other regiments of the First Corps. The destination of the troops is not known. It is currently reported that plans have been changed and that Santiago instead of Porto Rico will he the objective point. The railroads are ready for the emergency. The Western & Atlantic has 125 cars arranged in trains of twelve cars each and provided with water barrels standing in their yards, while the Southern has about two hundred cars similarly arranged and equipped in its yards. These trains can leave for the park in short order. A number of engines sufficient to pull each and every train, are being held in reserve in the roundhouses of these two roads. The work of paying the men is now being rushed. Every effort is being made to dispose of the regiments of the First Corps before they are moved away. The payments are progressing at the rate of a half dozen regiments a day. The entire work will likely be finished this week. Private John Logan, Company D, Eighth New York, is now in a critical condition at the Leiter Hospital as the result of an attempt to commit suicide. Logan left his camp, walking to the quarters of Battery B, Light Artillery, from Pittsburg, Pa., where he stabbed himself in the breast at the same time cutting his throat. Captain Frank W. Bartlett, commanding Company D, of the First Maine, died very suddenly last night. The remains were today shipped to Norway, Me., the home of the deceased. Complete Change ot Plana. CHICKAMAUGA PARK, Ga., July 4. The railroad companies this afternoon had all trains on the siding at Rossville and Ringgold to carry the six regiments of troops ordered to the front yesterday, and to-night the Southern Railroad had sent a Pullman train to Rossville to get General Wilson, who was to be In command of the expedition, and his staff, who were to leave to-night for Charleston. At Rossville the trainmen received orders to return to the city, an order having been received from Washington rescinding the order to move the troops. It is understood from this that the department has made a complete change of plans, and that no regiments are to be moved form this point for some time. The paymasters who have been here since last Wednesday completed the work of paying off every regiment in the First Army Corps to-night except the Twelfth New York, which will be paid to-morrow. A handsome sword was presented to General Grant this afternoon by Mr. Cone, of New York, on behalf of the New York Society of the Sons of the Revolution. The Eighth New York was present in a body and gave a dress parade, after which they were presented with a beautiful stand of colß-s by General Grant on behalf of the New York Society of the Sons of the Revolution. JOY AT CAMP ALGER. Hoosiers and Other Soldiers Celebrate the Fourth. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CAMP ALGER, Va., July 4.—There was a noisy and enthusiastic Fourth of July celebration in camp to-day which was not down on the programme. It was about 8 o’clock when the first news of the success of the Sampson fleet came and <n a very few minutes the band was out playing patriotic airs. Company after company dropped in behind the music makers, cheering as only Americans can. The spirit of enthusiasm spread to the other commands and soon the sound of noisy approval came from every regimental camp. There were some parades in which the men appeared in grotesque costumes. The best one was by the First Rhod6 Island, which is slated to leave for the front to-morrow. More equipments for the regiment were received by Ordnance Officer Gebhart to-day. It is now thought there will be no rapid movement from Camp Alger, but this is only conjecture. Captain Appleworth is still very ill at* Fort Myer. The troops are being paid very rapidly, and it is thought the work will be completed this week. B. W. B. May Soon Start South. WASHINGTON, July 4.—Many statements have been made that the men at Camp Alger are suffering seriously from the effects of the heat, but the surgeons say these stories are exaggerated and that there s have been few serious cases. Drill during the heat of the day has been suspended. A letter has been received by the commanding general from the father of James Elliott, who says his son, aged sixteen, ran away from Beaver Falls, Pa. Inquiries will be made to ascertain whether he Is In this camp. Charles Henshaw, Troop C, New York Cavalry, who was kicked in the back by a vicious horse yesterday, died to-day. Dead Soldier Wa Neglected. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., July 3.—A letter from a comrade of Private Charles Caton, of Company B, One-hundred-and-fifty-nlnth Indiana, who died at Camp Alger, says his death was the result of neglect quite as much as from pneumonia. When application was made for his admission to the hospital it was said there was not room for him and he remained In his tent, where his comrades did what they could for him. The fact that he remained in the tent led to the belief that he was not seriously ill, and his death was a surprise to all except the few who were brought into immediate contact with him.

MANILA NEWS —— ALMOST AS GOOD AS THE GLAD TIDINGS FROM SANTIAGO. Dispatch from Admiral Devrey Reporting the Arrival of the Transports and Charleston on June 30. 4. LADRONE ISLANDS TAKEN - 4 BY THE SAILORS AND SOLDIERS ON THEIR WAY TO THE PHILIPPINES. - - Governor General Marina, His Staff and a Small Military Force Captured and Transported to Manila. STARS AND STRIPES RAISED SURRENDER OF THE SPANISH GUNBOAT LEYTE AND CREW. Cavalry, Artillery and Riding Horses Needed by General Anderson—’Another Rumor Regarding Germany. WASHINGTON, July 4.—A * cablegram from Admiral Dewey was received at the Navy Department shortly after 5 o’clock this morning, announcing the safe arrival of the first fleet of transports. The message confirmed the Associated Press dispatch announcing that the Ladrone islands had been occupied by American troops from the transports. Admiral Dewey’s telegram, as translated from the navy code, follows: “Hong-Kong, July 4, Cavite, July I. Three transports and the Charleston arrived yesterday. The Charleston captured Guam, Ladrone islands,'on June 21. No resistance. Brought Spanish officers from the garrison, six officers and fifty-four men, to Manila. “On June 29 the Spanish gun vessel Leyte came out of a river near Manila and surrendtred to me, having exhausted ammunition and food in repelling attacks by insurgents. She had on board fifty-two officers and ninety-four men, navql and military. DEWEY.” The Leyte has a battery of one Hontoria,gun and several 2.7-inch rapidfire guns. The admiral says that the situation at Manila is satisfactory, that the troops are debarking and the health of the men is excellent. Adjutant General Corbin has received the following via Hong-Kong, July 3, from General Anderson, who commanded the first military expedition to the Philippines: “Cavalry, artillery and riding horses desirable. Can get limited number draft animals here. OUR NEW POSSESSIONS. Tine Stars and Stripes Non Protecting the Ladrone Islands. (Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press.) MANILA, July 1, via Hong-Kong, July 4. —The United States troops on the transports City of Sydney, City of Peking and Australia, convoyed by the United States cruiser Charleston, arrived off Cavite at 5 o’clock yesterday evening after an eventful voyage. On her way here the Charleston called at Guahan, the largest of the Ladrone Islands, the group in the Paciflo which belonged to Spain, took possession of the whole group, made prisoners of Governor General Marina, his staff and the entire military force and raised the stars and stripes over the ruins of Santa Crus port in the harbor of San Luis Depra. The troops are in good condition and our only loss was Private Hutchinson, of the First Oregon, who died on the City of Sydney on June 20, and was buried at sea on June 21. In addition to the Spanish governor of the Ladrones, the Charleston brought forty soldiers as prisoners of war to Cavite. Admiral Dewey offered to parole the crew of the gunboat Leyte, but they declined, because they feared to be court-martialed and shot. Captain Concha, late commander of the Spanish third-class unprotected cruiser Don Antonio de Ulloa, which was sunk at the battle of Cavite, commands a Malate fort with four hundred sailors. A thousand mixed troops are camped about half a mile south. The insurgents apparently fear to leave cover. Artachio, the insurgent leader, who was arrested by Aguinaldo, will, the Insurgents think, be shot, as General Aguinaldo fears a conspiracy against himself. SPANIARDS SCORED. Senor Bnencamino’i Letter to Angustl —A Priest-Ridden People. (Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press.) MANILA, June 27, via Hong Kong, July 4.—A prominent resident of the Philippine islands, Senor Buencamino, recently arrived at Cavite, ostensibly to intercede with Senor Aguinaldo in behalf of the Spaniards, but he has been imprisoned under suspicion that he intended to kill General Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader, and claim the reward of $25,000, offered for his life by the Spanish government. The prisoner has written a remarkable letter to Captain General August!, explaining that he had always been an ardent supporter of Spain, that he raised a corps of volunteers and that he had made various sacrifices for the Spanish cause, only to find that his efforts were wasted. He added: “The Spaniards were unable or unwilling to perform their share of defense, and the native volunteers bore the brunt of the fighting, the Spaniards shirking their duty like cowards, bunglers and a perjured priest-ridden inferior race. God decrees that they have no right to govern but would be better to surrender and avoid the massacre which will Inevitably follow a protracted struggle.” The writer concludes with advising Captain General August! in the meanwhile to guarantee the safe conduct of all who wish to leave the country, and the protection of those who remain after July 4. The British employes of the railroad have paid a visit by a steamship to the Dagupan terminus. They found the town In the possession of the Spaniards and the country around it in the hands of the insurgents, who are using the railroad extensively. The Spaniards are demolishing the celebrated botanical gardens of Manila and damage has been done to the church of Santa Ana. It is alleged that It was shelled by the insurgents, but In reality the damage was caused by the shells of a Spanish battery at San Juan, which bombarded an intervening insurgent outpost at Inandaloyan. The position of the combatants is peculiar. The Spaniards hold zigzag lines along the aqueduct, extending eight miles to the eastward, and they are exposed to attacks on both sides throughout the whole length of the defenses. The Fourth Expedition. SAN FRANCISCO, July 4.—lt now seems possible that the next expedition to the Philippines may sail within ten days. Although only two transports, the Peru and City of Puebla, are available, the Pennsylvania. which arrived yesterday, and the City of Rio de Janeiro, due on Tuesday, are likely to be chartered or impressed by the government. There are 143 patients In the field hospital, eighty being afflicted with measles. About thirty more soldiers are in private hospitals.

VALEJO, Cal., July 4.—The United States cruiser Philadelphia will go into commission in a few days. She Is alongside the quay at Mare island and her crew will be placed on board as soon as an order is received from Washington. Marines and sailors at the island are drilled constantly in embarking and debarking.
