COMMANDER THINKSCAMP GREAT SUCCESS fsvsrs Having Maneuver nirlsloa) Es-wry Use awal Brlnajlwa; ttaay Btat Mlltttaaaea lato It a Possible. Bronzed and In some cases blistered. Major General Batea and the members of hla staff returned at 7 yesterday morn lg from. Fort Riley, where they have been involved for Just three weeks In tha first maneuver division that haa been held In ilia United States since tho Spanish American war. Despite the arduous life which they have been experiencing and it he night ride to Omaha the hour of 9 yes terday morning found both General Bates and Colonel McClernand at their desks for duty, in civilian attire as usual, while Captain Reeves came straight to head quarters from the train and went about hla work In fatigue uniform, the clothes he had worn at camp. Every member ot the staff la In good health and all have enjoyed It during their an lira time of absence. Most ot them have grown tat on the outdoor life. Gen eral Batea hlmaeir plead!nr guilty to six xtra pounda of weight. Each member of the staff looks husky and atrong. too, and all are hearttlv pleased with their eamp lite and the success ot tha maneuver di vision. On this latter point Majr.r Gen eral Batea conversed freely, aarlng: "The maneuver dlvtslon was a success In all particulars. Tha regulars entered Into the problems with spirit and the officers from tha varloua state militia expresaod themselves as well pleased with what they aaw. Then the general health of the camp waa very good. Things were kept acrupuloutly clean and despite the un favorable weather of the first week or tea daya the percentage ot Illness 'waa un usually low. More Kxeaslve la Fa tare. "I think It Is assured tbst maneuver camp of aoma sort will be held each year now, with the regulars at least participa ting. Of course tha idea now In mio.l is to have these affairs much mora extensive, with aay 1,(00 regular soldiers aad 20,000 national guardsmen oa band. But till some atepa are taken whereby the general gov ernmant will assume a portion ot the ex pense undergone by the stale militia kt will be Impossible to aeeura tha attendance ct any largo portion of It. "Ia order to get such action the officers ot tha National Guard must themselves aush tha matter, aod tha presence of aa many of them aa witneasea of tha muneu vara at Fort Riley waa desired In ordsr to give them aa Idea of what tha camp was like and convince them of Its efficacy. The militia of fully twenty-Bva atatea waa rp reaented among the aixty odd National Guard officers present and they gave formal expression of their satisfaction before leav ing Captain Reaves was entbaslsatlo over the maneuvers. "Thero were aoma very pretty things dona dowa there." aald ha "For example, one day they threw" a pon toon bridge across the Kansas river and then sent troops across It. The bridge was 450 feet long, quit narrow and the stream Is swift, so care Is required In crossing. Yet I ssw three full rvmn. - battalion of Infantry, two batterlea of ar tillery and eight trocos of cavalrv rro there In forty-five minutes and they were not push:d. either. This bridge, by tho way, la near forty years old and was used In the civil war. It Is ot material of such flne quality that It today could hardly be replaced. The lumber would cost $150 a thousand. Koldlers Acted the Part. "All through the camp the soldiers acted the part. During the bad weather the mancuvera went on every day Just aa usual. One day we had division drill, with the entire force out, in the teeth of a storm. Cavalry, infantry and artillery, tha drill was gone through to the end. "We had 6.000 acres of land there for our field of operatlona. This waa hardly enough, but the country waa good for the purpoae. It Is rolling, affording flne artil lery positions, and yet cavalry can cover almost all of it, while infantry can go any where. Our command waa extensive, as the aix batterlea took up much room. Each battery has six guns, each gun stx horses, each gun a caisson, each caisson six h,orses, and besides that there are wagona jnd horses with extra ammunition and forage. Assembled at cloae formation the division would cover 1.600 yards. If you got la the tall grasa at one flank you couldn't see the other. "Hospital accommodations were especially good. Tha government asnt a large num ber of Ita army medical men to the camp and there were altogether over 100 so en gaged. We had a field hospital in the camp, a base hospital at tha fort, and each regiment had lta little hospital. The sicker a man waa or became the farther be was promoted, from regiments) to field, to bass hospital, and tha last step was to send him back to hla post If he could be moved." , MOTHER DIES FROM GRIEF aeeaaaha ta Coaataat Borrow Over Death of Her Sob, Can tata Lea Farby.

The committee will meet st a time not yet chosen, but likely to be early next week, and select men for their places. It Is not true, however, thst Hib bard is to be offered one ot those places.

South Omaba laboring men are smiling the large sardonic smile ct the wise man watch ing the shell game. From an office In the Armcur plant at South Omaba there is being circulated a large number of the small slips headed "Democrats Endorse Congressman Mercer." but oa which the only evidence ot thla la the reprinted clipping from the Con stitution, an Atlanta (Ga.) paper, of edition of September 25, 1902. This clipping, after designating him "ons of the best political managers of the republican party," goes on to say: "The district is republican by quite Omaha club. If not thero. perhaps at the ( t Ur8e majority, Mr. Mercer having been Millard hotel. There will be no other speakers and I presume Mr. Moody will discuss the genersl mattera of Interest In this campaign. I haven't telegraphed yet to find out definitely about the time ot hla arrival, but I think Tueaday afternoon will be the time. Tbe speaking will be Tuesday night, no matter when be arrives. I am informed .that largs parties are coming from Lincoln and Fremont and other (Joints, but there will be no excursions." Boms party leaders complain that tbe sec retary Is not to be shown the courtesy hia rank entitlea htm to. They say that Mr. Mercer, In bis ambition to keep Moody en tirely under hla own wing and yet necessi tate the least possible local expense, .first tried to get tbe Trocadero and then settled upon this roof garden. Chairman Black burn, however, insists that be favored Washington ball and that the selection ot the roof garden waa tho work ot tha county commute. elected there even when all the other dis tricts In the state were carried by tbe dem ocrats and their allies." An Armour employe who had been cor dially Invited to help place the slips In the right places says: "It seems to ma that that Is going a mighty long ways from home tor an endorsement and it'a stretching tho cbvlous intent of the article to head it aa an endorsement by democrats. He seems to be endorsed by Horace O. Burt, John N.

And the ample Spencerlan fist of Peter the Silent cama down with a sledge-hammer thud as he answered: "Not by a d d sight" Anybody who knows Hofeldt knows that that settles It, but to further clinch matters he gave the following written ex planation: "Without any solli iiatlon on my part I waa regularly nominated at the democratic convention, and the ssme was accepted by toe.
