ENOUGH MEN AT LAST
Root Will Pour Soldiers Into

TEN REGIMENTS CALLED FOR
Qaaeral Otis Will nrm Jlztjr.FIVf
Thouaend Men Under His
Commend.
Washington, Aug. 19. An order ha
been issued directing that 10 addition
al regiments of voltiuteei be organized
for am vice in the Philippines. The
regiments will be numbered from 88 to
47 aud will be organized at the follow
ing places in the onler named:
One cadi lit Foit Knelling, Furl
Crook. Neb., Fort Kilo), Kan., two
at Camp Meade, Pa., one each at Fort
Niagara, N. Y., Port Kthan Allen,
Vt., Fort Leavenworth, Kan., Jeffer
son Barrack, Mo., South Fiamliighain,
Muss.
Washington. Aug. 19. "The polioy
of the war department," said Secretary
Hoot, "is to furnish Ueneral Otis with
all the troop aud supplies that he can
use and that ate necessary to wind up
1 lie insurrection in the Philippines iu
the shortoat possible time."
The secretary was speaking of the 13
remgimenl that were culled out today
bv order of tho president. .He said
that no delay would be allowed in the
enlisting, equipping and supplying tht
new regiments already organized, and
sending them to the Philippines as
soon as they were needed for active
operations. If the present number of
transport ia intmflicient more will Ik
procured. The men already enlisted
for the Philippine service will bo lent
at once and the new regiments will fol
low aa fast as they are organized anc
needed.
While there has been some lapgei
tion that the new regiment will b
used aa a reserve force, it may bo atated
positively that these regiments, as well
aa more, if they can be need, will b
tent to reinforce (jeneral Otis.
Secretary Hoot aunt a copy of tin
order of today to the various depart
ments of the army and they at onoe be
gnu preparations for supplying the nev.
organizations. Within hail an boot
the ordnance bureau bad sent orderi
to the different arsenals directing tha
complete outfits of arms and ordnance
auppliea for each regiment be sent t
the rendezvous wliere they are to b
organized. The quuiteruiaster's d
partmet gave ordeis for supplying
tents, clothing and otter equiments
furnished by that department while
the commissary department ordered a
sufficient supply ol ration to be on
hand to feud the troops as fast as they
arrive. The medical department was
also directed to see that supplies were
aent.
. The regiments will be recruited with
the same oare exercised in enlisting
the first 10 regiment. The distriots
which were not very thoroughly cov
ered in recruiting for the first 10 regi
ments will be visited by the officer of
the new organizations. It is tiie inten
tion of the department to have tho reg
iments give more attention to firing
than to any other feature of the drill.
The men will be armed, as are the reg
ular infantry regiments, with the new
magazine army rifles.
SUPPLIES FOR YAQUIS.
San Prenelsco Flllbnttfr atamner Trob

Guaymas, Mexico, Aug. !. The
gunboat Democrnta left port Tuesday
and a rumor was started - that it went
to Intercept a vesesl from Hun Fran
cisoo carrying Gntling guns, rifle and
ammunition to the Yaqnia. The gun
boat has not returned, but rumor sayl
that it lias captured the filibuster.
Uiiaymua is full of Yaquis working
at all aorta of occupations. Several
aloop laden with produce nnd manned
by Yuqui arrived yesterday from tha
river. They icport that when tha
troops reached Vicam Friday, the town
was deserted, and no fight took place.
A body of Indians met the tioope on
the march toward the town and held
them in check until the Yaquis had
loft the town and then they disap
peared in the wooda. The main body
of the Indians, including women and
children, crossed on a raft to the nortb
bank of the river, mnde detour be
hind the troops, and escaped to the
mountains. The Yuqui loss in the skir
mish was three. Tba horse under
General Torres was shot.
The remainder of the campaign will
probably consist of scouting in the
mountain on the part of the troops,
and raids in the Guaymas valley
ranches by the Indiana.

HIS HEAD CRUSHED.
Marin lilvev Drowned Under ISa Feet
r Water.
Tacoma, Aug. 19. William Bald
win, tha farnoua marine diver, of Seat
tle, wa drowned this afternoon while
working on the submerged Andelana,
'198 feet under water. It ha been
contended that diver could not descend
deeper than 160 feel. Baldwin said he
could reaoh the Andelana, and made
three descent. .
On the fourth trip down, the terrific
air pressure broke tha connecting
tubes to hi pneumatic stilt, and he
wa drowned. Hi head wa cruabed
to pieces by the pressure.
Baldwin made hi first trip to tha
bottom of Commencement bay on the
afternoon of August 9, and broke all
previous record for deep-sea diving by
going down a little over 83 fathom.
When be wa drawn to the surface, af
ter Ji is first descent, bis first words,
when the helmet wa removed from hia
suit were: "I kuew I could reach tba
abip and I did." , ,
When be went down again thia af
ternoon his assistants and a few specta
tors who wera on the barge, wbicb I
moored near where the Andelana i ly
ing, jokingly aald goodbye, a they had
alway done before, and one of the
men at the air pump added, "We'll all
attend your funeral." Little did they
think that that would We the last time
Baldwin would be seen alive.
Heretofore the record for the deepest
dive made nnder water wa held by
Gunner' Mate Morgan, of tba United
State oruiser Charleston, who went
below the auiface of the water a dis
tance of 100 feet. When this record
waa made, it waa considered phenomen
al, and many thought tbe teat impos
sible. At a depth of 198 feet there la a
watei pressure of 90 pound to the
square inch, and a pressure of 95
pounds to the square inch i neoesaary
to force breathing-air to the man be
low the water, but this did not deter
Baldwin from attempting to reach the
sunken ship. In describing tbe feel
ing experienced nnder 83 fathom of
water, Baldwin said it was a paralys
ing sensation "all over the body and
limbs, and when theie would be the
least bitch in the airpump, the top of
his head aeemed to raise about three
feet. Ordinary garden hose was used
to furnish air to Baldwin, an! this
wa only guaranteed to withstand a
pressure of 75 pounds, so hi death can
be laid only to bis own carlessnees.
Before the laisins of the Andelana
could finally be successful, it would be
neoeasary for Baldwin to go to 86 fath
om of water, and he seemed perfectly
willing to chalice the danger. Diver
Baldwin wa to receive $30,000 for his
labors if the Andelana was raised, but
now that lie has been killed, it is
probable that the abip will continue to
lie in Commencement bay for some
time to come.
This will probably be the last at
tempt to raise the sunken ship, a
Baldwin was the only man on the
coast who would even make the at
tetnpt to descend to so great a depth,
particularly ao since the water ia al
ways muddy on account of the Puval
lup emptying into the bay at this
point
WASHINGTON'S FINE REGIMENT

Portland, Aug. 10 First Lieutenant
William E. Weigle, company G, First
Washington, who baa recently returned
from tbe Philippines, says:
"The Washington troops have stood
the hardships and olimate of the Phil
ippines much better than the Eastern
troop a they seem to take more natur
ally to the rainy weather. While
there has been considerable sickness
among the troops, still the number on
the sick lilt has been much below the
average of other regiments. The lieu
tenant ipeaki in high praise of Colonel
Wholloy and his ability as a command
er, and hai ao hesitancy in asserting
that the men of the Washington regi
ment stand at the head of the list for
all-round good aoldiera, of all the vol
unteer now In tbe Philippines. They
won words of praise from their corps
commander, General Charles King, for
their spend id work on more than one
occasion. Upon General King' de
partuie from the islands, the regiment
al commander, Colonel Wholley, was
chosen to take bis place as corps com
mander. The Washington troops, the
lieutenant says, are now awaiting

HUNDREDS OF LIVES WERE L0S1
The Hurricane lteaclied a Velocity af

Jacksonville, Fla., Aug. 31. Ac
cording to a Miami dispatch to ths
Times-Union and Citizen, Captain Dil
lon, of tbe steamer Cocoa, state that
the town of Ked Bay on the isaml of
Andros, 30 mies southwest of Nassau,
wa swept away in the recent tropical
hurricane, and 'about 800 live loet.
An eye-witness of the storm estimated
that the loss of life on the island was
fully 600. Scattered through the
wreck of bouses at Bed Bay after tbe
storm subsided, be said, were hundred
if corpses of persons of all ages and
lasses. Captain Dillon said the wind
blew at the rate of 90 miles an hour at
Nassau, with an occasional gust wbicb

PORTO RICANS IN DISTRESS.
Seed of Next Planting and Work Most
Be Provided.
New York, Ang. 21. A dispatch to
the Herald from San Juan, Porto Rico,
say: Visit to the most distressed
district of the island prove that the
former reports of terrible condition
have not been in the least exaggerated.
People in the town are huddled to
gether anywhere for shelter. In the
conntiy tbe people are sleeping In the
open air. The food aupplies have been
totally destroyed. Only the well-to-do
can afford to buy provisions.
Unless succor comes in a few dayi
the people will starve. The suppliei
fiom San Junn have not yet arrifed al
tbe towns, but are expected. The de
pot in many town are already sur
rounded by a large number of hungry
people. The mayors of the towns bav
received no authority to dispensv
money, but most of them aro contribut
ing generously out of their own pock
ets to supply the most urgent needs.
As far as Caguaa and Cayey, the san
itary conditions are not threatened, but
report from town further south state
that their condition is dangeious. Th
peril lies in the herding of tbe inhab
itants in the towns. Several of thi
joldiers were wounded during the re
cent hurricane, but it is learned that
ihere were no deaths aomng tbem. Tbe
best posted persons agree that it will
be necessary to provide work for th
inhabitants and seeds for the next
planting. An official report form Guay
mas says that 265 houses weie de
stroyed, 175 seriously injured and 30
damaged by the storm.
In the district surrounding Maya
guez, scores of women, old men and
childien are homeless and beggin(
shelter and food. The schooner Con.
oepcion, loaded with 300 Porto Iiicanl
going as emigrants to Sam an a. went
adrift today. All jumped overboard
and several were drowned. A Maya
gues paper reminds the public that in
the year 1841 the city was destroyed
by fire for two days, tbe governor was
personally distributing $50,000 among
those who most needed it.
In Arroyo 90 per cent of the bouses
Were demolished by the hurricane. At
the port nothing remains. Many prom
inent persons in Utnado have signed
an appeal to tho public asking food and
work for the inhabitants. Two thou
sand persons Lave periehed in thi
whole district.

fact that Colonel Bacallao. chief of the
ecret police, persisted in bis neclara
tion that General Jiminez, the aspirant

PUMMELED TO DEATH.
MoConnell Beat Franey Vnmereirully
Chargo of Maiielaogthter.
San Francisco, Aug. 21. The au
topsy held on tbe remains of Jim
Franey, tbe pugilist, who died after
having been knocked out by Frank
McConnell on Friday night, showed
that hi vital organs were diseased;
that be was in no condition to enter s
ring as principal, and that he bad
been pommeled and beaten to death
by Frank McConnell, who was arrested
on a charge ot manslaughter, and is
now out of jail on bail.
A similar charge has also been
placed against J. J. Groom, J. D.
Gibbs, promoters of the fight; Hiram
Cook, referee, nnd the seconds of boll'
men engaged in tbe contest. All ba
given bonds and are now at liberty
Dr. J. L. Zabala, the city's autopsy
physician explains the cause of the
pugilist's death as follows: "1 found
severe contnsions on Franey 's face,
shoulders and upper arms. There was
a hemorrhage of tbe biain on the left
side and the organ itself was in an a
anaemio condition. The man must
bave received a tenible punishment,
and death was nothing more than the
result of the blows wbiob were rained
on bis face and bead. Tbe impact of
tbe bead on the floor bad nothing tc
do with it. He was in a dying condi
tion before he fell.
"Franey should never have entered
the ring. An examination of bis lungs
showed pleuralio adhesions, and hia
system was otherwise broken down. He
was fit for practical purposes in life,
but certainly not for unnatural exer
cisa."

stration in Paris.
IICSDBEDS OF PEOPLE INJURED
Crucifix and Ornaments Thrown Into) a
Heap and Fired Baarlitaa Belled
by tho Mob.
Paris, Ang. 22. Paris was today
the scene ot most serious disturbances,
reoalliug some aspect of the commune.
In response to an appeal of tne Journal
da Peuple, groups of anarchists and so
cialists gathered about 3 o'clock in the
afternoon in the Place de la Bepub
liqne. Tbe police bad taken precau
tions, and there seemed' to be no dan
get of disorders. Sebastian Faure and
Faberot, well-known revolutionary an
archists, were the ring-leaders. Faure,
standing on the pedestal of the statue
which lises in the center of the Palate
de la Iiepubliqne, adressed the crowd.
Among other things be said that tbe
anarchist should be master of the
streets. The police then interfered
and dislodged Fame and Fabeiot, mak
ing three arrests. Tbe crowd at this
point dispersed, but a column of dem
onstrators, beaded by Faure and
Henri d'Hori, made for the Place de
la Nation. The police broke through
the column and a struggle for the mas
tery followed. Shot were fired, and
M. Goollier, commissary ot police, was
twice stabbed with a knife.
Tbe rioters proceeded toward . the
Faiiborg du Temple, at tba corner of
Kue Darberi and the Rue St. Mauri
Popincourt, they formed npinto a com
pact body. Hatchets were suddenly
produced, witb long knives stolen from
the counters of shops, and a concen
trated rush was made upon the Church
of St. Joseph.
The aged sacristan, seeing the mob,
hastily closed the outer gates, but these
were soon forced witb batcbets and
bars of iron. Tbe niaaaive oaken dooi
were then attacked. According to the
first account, the wild horde buret into
the churct, which instantly beoama a
s:ene of wild pillage and sacrifice. Al
tera and statues were bnrled to the
Boor and smashed; pictures were rent,
candlesticks, ornaments and bests from
high altara were thrown dovqa and
trampled under foot. The crucifix
above wa made the target lor missiles
and the figme of tbe Savior waa trao
tared in several plaoes. Then, while
rancorous voices sang the "Carmag
nole," the chairs were oanied outside,
piled up and set on fire in th center of
th square fronting tb church. When
this stage was reached, th crucifix
was pulled down and thrown into th
flames. Suddenly the cry was raised
that the statue of the Virgin had been
forgotten, and tbe crowd returned and
tore this down also.
An attempt was made to fire the
choir of St. Joseph'a with petroleum,
and the firemen were called in to
quench tbe flames. Several parishion
ers were severely manled in tbeir ef
forts to defend the church from sacri
lege. Ths church is situated in the
poorest Quarter of the city. No disord
ers of any kind occurred in the fashion
able district.
Meanwhile the sacristan, who had
been captured by the anarchists, es
caped, and called tbe police and repub
lican gnaids, who promptly arrived,
with many constables. They were
compelled to fall back in Order to form
up into line of defense, as the anarch-,
into attacked them fearfully with
knives.
