a cood deal of transportation rridsome
men belonging to regiments that have
already gone across to Cuba. Several
contract nurses were carried on the

i ne march oi tne battalion was a
very pleasant one The troops re
ceived many cheers as they passed
through the city. The band played
"Dixie" several times betwesn tbe
camps and the transport and the tune
was loudly cheered. One of the soldier
had a Cuban flag stuck in his gun.
This evoked considerable enthusiasm.
Besides the Nebraska soldics, the

surgeons for the Havana hospitals.

Michigan arrived today and will take
the remaining battalions of the Ne
braska regiment and one battalion of
the Ninth Illinois. The hospital ship
Missouri also arrived today for a cargo
of medical supplies.
Hoys of the First Coming Home.
Washington, Dec. 30. Major Gen
eral Otis, military governor of the
Philippines, wired the War depart
ment today that in obedience to the
orders of the adjutant general under
date of October 19, he had reduced the
First Nebraska to eighty men to the
company and had ordered home on
government transports for muster out
all men above eighty who were the
support of dependent relatives,
students, men in the hospital and men
not likely to recover from illness, iD
accordance to instructions from the
War department. It is understood
from the telegram that a transport
has left Manila enroute for San Fran
cisco, but nothing could be learned at
the War department as to the name of
the transport.
Startling Oisclosures.
Admirals and captains are brave
enough, and keen tacticians, no doubt,
but the best part of the Spanish fleet
would have slipped through some
body's fingers that Sunday morning at
Santiaero if America's fighting en
gineers had not. by the hardest of
work, overcome the obstacles imposed
upon them by orders from the bridge.
If the fighting had been against men
more nearly kin say English or Ger
man under conditions identical with
those c Santiago on the morning of
July 3, some American hulks might
now be resting at the bottom of tropic
seas. For engines were uncoupled, and
many fires out, and steam so low that
all the energy of the stokers was re
quired to get it up again.
Tbe American ships had been off
the coast for weeks, waiting for the
enemy to come out. W hen the enemy
came out, the American ships were
ready to shoot, but not to give chase.
This was no fault of the engineers. It
was tho result of a condition peculiar
to naval practico. In the navy the
ship's captain decides how many boil
ers shall bo used, how much coal shall
be burned, what pressure shall be car
ried. And the American captains at
Santiago had everything in readiness,
except their boilers and engines.
There were two exceptions, the
Oregon and the Gloucester. Arthur

Celebration at Santiago.
SANTIAGO DE Cuba, Jan. 1. The
last day of the old year had scarcely
passed when the people of Santiago
began to celebrate the birth of Cuban
independence. From that hour until
dawn crowds marched the 6treets,
singing and cheering for Cuba and the
United States, while bands played
exhilarating music. It was the real
voice of the people instead of tho ele
tnent that is usually making itself
heard through the local press, and
there could be no question of the
enthusiastic feeling toward America.
This morning General Wood, follow
ing an ancient Santiago custom, held
to well written
found it too lengthv.
Mrs. Toliff closed the program with
an instructive paper on English Litera
ture from Chancer to Spencer, which
showed careful preparation and research.
Parliamentary law and current top
ics will furnish the program for the
next meeting of the club,and as this is
a popular department, it is expected
there will be a large attendance.
Henry lloeck Was Scared.
The alarm of fi e was sounded nt
6:30 Saturday morniDg and from the
vigorous manner in which the bell
pealed forth considerable excitement
was caused. People were lunning in
every direction, trying to locate the
flames, but without success. Finally
a reception at the palace, appearing Henry Boeck was seen coming from
