GRAND ARMY MARCH
Ten Thousand Civil War Vet

OLD SOLDIERS FROM EVERY STATE
In the Line off March Many Empty

tered War Flaw* Showed the
Sorrow* and lilory off War.
SAN 1'KANCISCO. Aug. 20.—Ten
thousand survivors of the civil war
passed in review, matching to the mar
tial tunes that inspired them to en
deavor forty years ago. Above tile na
tional colors, borne by every marcher,
proudly floated torn and tattered Hags.
These, with empty sleeves and limping
gait, were clotiii'#t reminders of the
sorrow and glory of war. Vnlike the
parade of the previous day, tile quick
marching line of youth, this procession
was the measured and steady tread of
age. As the different divisions march
ed along waves of sentiment passed
over marchers and spectators. There
were many still vigorous in line, but
they waited for their weaker comrades,
and tlie column halted often on its two
mile course.
In tig1 long line were men from ev
ery corner of the nation. Of all the
states, Californi;t excepted, the one
that had the largest lnlmlier in line
was Illinois, but Ohio was a close sec
ond.
Almost every delegation liad its em
blem—Ohio its buckeye. Connecticut a
wooden nutmeg. .Minnesota a loaf of
bread and so on indefinitely7. 'I here
was something distinctive to each
group.
The men from Vermont, “the Green
Mountain State." bore a line of seven
given hauliers, caeu comuming a icm-i.
the whole spelling the name ot the
state.
One thousand men marched undei
the yellow banner of Illinois. At the
head marched Colonel Thomas (i. Law
ler. past commander in chief of the
'Grand Army. The Wisconsin division
was led by General Arthur Mac Arthur
in civilian clothes.
Pennsylvania headed the second di
vision. Here and there in the line ap
peared a buck tail, indicating the pres
ence of a survivor of the famous First
Pennsylvania ritirs. “ihe Buck Tails.”
The New York section followed Penn
sylvania. led by John Roster.
General Nelson A. Miles was the
guest of the Spanish-American war vet
erans, and tlie women’s relief corps
gave a reception to Commander in
Chief Stewart.
Governor Tells of Third Set of Twins.
INDIANAPOLIS. 1ml.. Aug. 20.—Gov
ernor Durbin received a telegram from
Stephen A. Beeves of New Albany an
nouncing that Beeves is the father ot
a third pair of twins. “They arrived
this morning and are the third consecu
tive brace. The mother and twins are
doing well,” wired the joy tip I father.
The governor ordered Secretary Lock
wood to inclose the communication
from Beeves in a letter to President
Roosevelt. The governor's letter to the
president called attention to the dis
patch from Beeves and said that it
furnished one more striking instance of
how strenuously opposed to “race sui
cide” are the good Indiana people.

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.. Aug. 20.
Great excitement prevailed on the bath

by a sudden shifting of the currents.
The turn formed a deep hole south of
the ocean pier that was entirely con
cealed at high water, and 121) bathers
stumbled from water knee deep into a
trap that ingulfed them to their shoul
ders. They were panic stricken. Witl
life lines tlie beach guards struggled
out through tlie surf and dragged bath
er after bather from the lade. When
the work was done the life savers were
nearly exhausted.

LONDON, Aug. 20.—The Italian am
bassador here lias received a dispatch
from Rome, announcing that an Ital
ian squadron laid been ordered to
Macedonian waters to "watch events.”
The embassy officials were unable to
say whether it was a result of Russia
sending a squadron to Turkish waters
or not.
Admiral Doinvllle, commanding the
British Mediterranean fleet, now olV
Portugal, lias received urgent orders to
detach some vessels to the neighbor
hood of Salonika immediately.
It Is learned in official quarters that
the action of Russia in ordering a na
val squadron to Turkish waters may
be speedily followed by important joint
aumii tin- |iou ^1 « i..
Communications are at present being
exchanged between the powers relative
to a joint naval demonstration before
Salonika.
The final determination will depend
largely upon Russia, but if a joint
demonstration is determined upon tlie
fleets of England, France and Austria
will certainly co-operate, and it is prob
able that tlie fleets of all the other Eu
ropean powers having Turkish inter
ests, except possibly Germany, which
throughout has not favored taking En
ergetic steps against Turkey, will take
part in the demonstration.
In the meantime tlie Russian squad
ron will not proceed to Constantinople,
as has been reported, but will rendez
vous off a small port of the vilayet of
Adrianople, above tlie entrance of the
Bosporus. For the present this squad
ron has no orders to assume an aggres
sive course. Its action will depend on
Turkey’s fulfillment of the terms of
Russia’s final demands in connection
with the assassination of Consul Rost
kovski. Tlie punishment of a number
of tlie parties implicated is not consid
ered to be full compliance with the
terms of the demands, which include
an adequate indemnity.
Besides the Iiostkovski Incident, the
proposed joint naval action before Sa
lonika is due to tlie earnest representa
tions of tlie foreign consuls at Saloni
ka, who set forth that their lives are in
danger.
The assassination of M. ltostkovski is
giving such emphasis to tlie statement
of the consuls that consideration of a
joint naval demonstration of sufficient
strength to impress Turkey with the
necessity for taking decisive action
looking to tlie maintenance of order in
Macedonia is now in progress. The ex
changes of communications have
shown that Russia and Austria con
tinue to co-operate in the action taken
toward Turkey.

CHICAGO. Aug. 20.—Plans for com

may be held if necessary until such
times as they can be marketed at a fair
price. As a result of the conference it
was decided to hold a farmers' con von

tailed plans of organization.
Progressive farmers are all invited to
attend, so that one of the present plans
may be adopted or that from all of
