THE REGIMENT IS GONE AT LAST 161 ST INDIANA IS EX ROUTE TO JACKSONVILLE. ■+ Third Section of Train Left in the Evening—Troops Addressed by the Governor, The One-hundred-and-sixty-first Regiment has gone to Jacksonville, leaving Camp Mount deserted except for the two colored companies. There were no drills in camp in the morning, but every soldier was tense with excitement in anticipation of the move to the South, even though none of the troops may ever see the smoke of battle. The officers were Instructed to have a man at each corner of every tent at 9 o’clock promptly, and at bugle call to draw the ropes and pack tents and equipment at once. As soon as the bugle blew the blast every tent fell over to the north Just as if a cyclone had struck camp and swept the field clean. In twenty minutes the tents were down, packed and loaded into wagons to be hauled to the cars near by. An early noon mess was ordered, and at 1 o’clock the ride to Sixteenth street began. The colored companies, which acted as escort to the regiment, came first and were followed by the first hattalion. These were followed by the second and third battalions. The soldiers left the cars at Sixteenth street and marched across to Meridian, where they halted, waiting for Colonel Durbin and staff, who can e up a few minutes before 3. Governor Mount, his secretary and the When band wera in waiting. At 3 o’clock the order to “fall in” was given and the line of march began, the colored men in front, then Governor Mount, Colonel Durbin and staff. The first, second and third battalions followed In the order given. Company F carried the flag in the middle of the regiment. The length of the line was six blocks, four abreast. THE GOVERNOR’S SPEECH. In front of the Statehouse the troops were drawn up and passed in review’ before the Governor, and after halting were addressed by the Governor as follows: 'Soldiers of the One-hundred-and-sixty-first Indiana Volunteers—You ars to-day bidding good-bye to friends, to home and to your native State. In behalf of this commonwealth I desire to bid you good-bye and godspeed on your journey. In common with thousands of brave men, you tendered your service upon the first cali of the President of the United States for volunteers. You pleaded earnestly and with importunity that your service might be accepted. You relied but the patriotism of tens of thousands of other brave men In Indiana who tendered their services and who have importuned earnestly that their service might be accepted. (Applause.) It has been your patriotism and the patriotism of the brave men of Indiana that enabled the State to take her proud position at the front of the States in furnish.ng her quota of soldiers. (Applause.) It was her patriotism that enabled Indiana to report her quota ready first of all the States. It was this patriotism that enabled Indiana to have her soldiers first mustered into the service. It will not, soldiers, militate against your patriotism or your honor that you may not engage in battle. You have made personal sacrifice—no one knows but a soldier and a soldier's family the personal sacrifice he makes when he enlists in his country’s service. He goes forth to meet the dangers of battle and the disease of the camp. He goes forth perhaps not to return to those who are dear to him. He enlists and is ready for whatever service the government may accept of him. He sacrifices his home, he leaves loved ones, and only a mother can tell what sacrifices she makes when she bids farewell to her darling boy, and only that boy knows the sacrifice of leaving home when he bids farewell to his mother and his friends. Some of you have bade good-bye to a loving wife, some of you to a mother and a father, some to brothers and sisters, but you are all bidding good-bye to friends who are as dear to you as your own life. Not only this sacrifice, but many of you are sacrificing your business. You have allow’ed nothing to come between you and your country. I may truthfully say of Indiana that the five regiments that have gone forth from this State, and are now going, and the two Independent companies, and the two batteries, are as grand men as ever enlisted in any cause. (Applause.) And they are all of them as brave men as ever entered an army for the defense of the country. (Renewed applause.) And if opportunity offers Indiana soldiers will reflect credit upon tne government and upon this great commonwealth. (Applause.) “It looks at this time as though the war might he near Its termination, and in the dawn of peace we all rejoice. These brave men have been willing to give their lives, but God spare their lives and permit them to return, all of them, to this State. (Great applause.) But, soldiers of the One-hun-dred-and-sixty-first, I am not a prophet, but I predict that you will tread on Cuban soil before you are welcomed back to the State of Indiana. (Tremendous applause.) I believe that the gallant Fltzhugh Dee, if he does not go to Cuba as a conqueror, will go there with an army of occupation (applause), and I believe this regiment, with General Dee, will be on Cuban soil next winter. And, comrade soldiers, there will be battles for you to fight, though they may not be against the enemy. The insidious temptations that follow camp life require courage to meet and maintain your honor and your dignity. I would counsel you, moet these temptations of camp life like heroes. There is no schooling, in my judgment, that is grander than the schooling a soldier receives in camp and in battle. The mask will he thrown aside. You will see men In their true character. In the army some men will do that which they would scorn to do in society. But the true soldier will maintain his dignity, his gentlemanly demeanor, in camp and in battle, as well as in society. (Applause.) And those soldiers that meet the dangers and temptations of camp and return with their characters unsullied, dignified, temperate, gentlemanly at the close of the war will he men who have learned lessons that will be of incalculable benefit to them through life. So my parting words would be to these men, be diligent, be active, be brave, he temperate, be contented. maintain a cheerful disposition. We are told that a cheerful spirit doeth good as a medicine. The soldier that becomes disheartened and discouraged In camp Is in danger of inviting disease and of meeting death. So, soldiers of the One-hundred-and-sixty-first, acquit yourselves like men, so that when you return to your friends and to your State you will return bringing hack that nobility of character and manhood as well as a bravo record as a soldier. I have no fear the good name of Indiana will be vindicated in the camp or in the furnace of battle. (Applause.) Go forth, hrave men from Indiana, and may God's blessing and God's protecting power go with you. and in His wtod providence may you be permitted to return and receive that welcome that patriotic soldiers deserve from their friends and from their native State.” (Tremendous applause.) , Colonel Durbin made a few happy remarks and then, dismounting from his horse, shook hands with the Governor. Col. Backus followed Colonel Durbin’s example. Cheer after cheer was given by the soldiers for the flag and officers The march then continued to the North-street depot, where cars were in readiness. At half past 8 the first section left the depot. A few minutes intervened between the starting of the other two sections. The first train carried Colonel Durbin and his staff and the first battalion. Each section carried one battalion in order. Hundreds of people lined the way along the line of march, shouting “good-bye” to the soldiers. When the flag was carried along the crowd went wild with applause and hats were lifted until it had passed. The arrangements were complete and were carried out with precision in every detail. Two Deaertera Arrested. Captain Anderson, of the One-hundred-and-sixty-first Indiana, notified the police yesterday of the whereabouts of two deserters from his company and asked that the police arrest and detain them until the military authorities could call. The boys were taken to the station house and last night before leaving the captain sent for them. They will be court-martialed and tried for desertion. Sherman Molt'* Statement. Mr. Sherman Mott says he practiced no ruse in securing the release of Carl Tansey at the hands of the Terre Haute authorities. He paid all charges demanded and the settlement was satisfactory to Terre Haute officials. Mr. Mott adds that Tansey returned to Indlanan,olls and was In the city on Wednesday. A Handful of Morphine. Anna Tacket, 528 East Washington street, attempted suicide early yesterday morning, but was saved from immediate death by the Dispensary physicians who were called.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 1898.

For no apparent reason the young woman, who is about twenty-five years of age. swallowed a handful of morphine and then took a large draught from a vial of chloroform. After five hours’ hard work on the part of the doctors the woman was removed to the City Hospital, w-here she still lies in a precarious condition. Her thre it and the lining of the stomach were severely burned by the drugs, and there Is still a possibility of the attempt resulting fatally. THE OLD SETTLERS’ ANNUAL. Over 8,000 People at Broud Ripple Yesterday. The seventeenth annual meeting of the Old Settlers’ Reunion took place at Broad Ripple Park yesterday, and was, perhaps, the most enjoyable ever held there. There were upwards of eight thousand people present during the day, more in the afternoon than in the morning. While this is a meeting intended primarily for old settlers, it was really attended by more of the younger generation. Many farmers all over the county look forward to this occasion every year as the great annual picnic, and make arrangements to be there. But there were a great many old people present, as well as the younger. Henry Warrum made an address. Mr. Warrum is a candidate at the coming elections, and seized this opportunity to do some electioneering for himself. When he said that the farms in the West were bonded for more than the assessed valuation, W. T. Long, of this city, shouted back at him, “That ain’t so,” which seemed to cool the ardor of the speaker for the time being. He spoke for about an hour. Dr. W. H. Wishard was called on for a reply, and he said he was not out for any office and did not think that was a place to make a pol tical speech. In a gentlemanly way he deplored the remarks that were made. His reply was very brief and to the point. Music was furnished by the Zionsville Band throughout the day. Shaffer’s Orchestra, of North Indianapolis, made the music for the dancers in the pavilion. Boating excursions, dancing, swimming and games of various kinds afforded the amusement. There were a number of prizes offered, as follows: Enlarged picture to the oldest lady on the ground, awarded to Ann E. Irwin, age nine-ty-four, of Castleton: five dollars to the best quartet. Broad Ripple Quartet, composed of Blanche Elliott. Edna Kirkpatrick, Edith Whitesell, Lulu Meiers; five dollars to the girl under fourteen singing the best patriotic song, Maud Swearingen, of New Augusta; dress pattern to the oldest lady not heretofore receiving a prize, Eliza Large, eighty years old.

EASTERN ROADS COME DOWN. Make a Better Rate for the Pytlilan Encampment. A piece of news received in this city yesterday tilled with delight the hearts of the men who have been managing the preliminaries in connection with the coming Knights of Pythias encampment. It is no less than that tho trunk lines have made a reasonable rate. This means an added attendance of perhaps several thousand people from the territory east of the Alleghenies. The Eastern railroads were loath to favor Indianapolis, from the first failing to make any satisfactory concessions. Almost everything possible w r as done to get them to meet the low rate made by the Western lines, but they remained obdurate. It was thought the city was blacklisted for the reason that it has no ordinance against ticket scalping. One and a third fares for the round trip over their lines was the best that the Eastern roads would make until yesterday, when the word was received here t*at a rate of one fare for the round trip had been made. A week ago E. A. Fold, general passenger and ticket agent of the Pennsylvania lines, and E. O. McCormick, general traffic manager of the Big Four, took up the cause of Indianapolis and pressed Ms claim for better treatment with the officials of the trunk line and New England passenger associations. Yesterday Mr. Ford sent the following telegram to Major General Carnahan: “Trunk lires have granted < ne-fare rate, to bo added to 1-eent-per-inile rate, from Pittsburg and other points for Indianapolis encampment." This means that the lines east of Pittsburg will sell through tickets tt Indianapolis and return, figuring the cost at the rate of one fare for the round i.tp as far as Pittsburg and at the rate of 1 cent a mile west of Pittsburg. This .'s considered a big concession after hope was lost that the trunk lines would make so favorable a rale. Chairmun Donald, of tne Central Traffic Association, w’hich includes the reads in Indiana, Ohio and Illinois, yesterday issued another circular concerning rates to the grand encxnapment f >he Knignts of Pythias at Indianapolis, which is to the effect that from all points :,i the Central Traffic Association territory the rate wifi be 1 cent a mile. Returning, tickets will be good leaving Indianapolis not earlier than Aug. 23. nor later than Aug. 39, with proviso that upon deposit of ticket with joint agent on or before Aug. 2J and payment of fee of 25 cents, an expansion of return limit to leave Indianapolis to and including Sept. 10 may be secured. In addiMon to th's the Indianapolis Passenger Association has authorized a rate of one fare and a third tc be made on Aug. 24 and 25 to Indianapolis from points within a radius of seventy i.ve miles. CAPT. ENGLISH FOR MAYOR. Democratic Politician* Talking; of This Possibility. It is common talk among Democratic politicians that Capt. Will E. English will be the next Democratic candidate for mayor. City Controller Johnson was asked yesterday if the politicians' talk had a true foundation. Mr. Johnson replied that, though he had heard the gossip, he had not talked with any one of the leaders about Captain English’s possible candidacy. “Do you think Captain English would make a strong candidate?” Mr. Johnson was asked. “Certainly he would.” he replied. “He was a soldier in this war with Spain, he is an able man and he has many other considerations in his favor I understand, however. that he has declined to announce that he will he a candidate for the nomination for mayor. He is ill now. but I suppose he will entirely recover In time. There is certainly lots of talk about his candidacy.” Found Warsaw Man'* Wheel. D. W. Grant, of Warsaw, left his wheel standing in front of the old Stubbins Hotel, on South Illinois street, several days ago and when he returned was unable to find it. The police were notified and yesterday recovered the bicycle. It was in the possession of Frank Miller, who claims Chicago as his home. Miller was arraigned in Police Court yesterday, but his case was continued until this morning.
