OLD SOLDIERS FROM EVERY STATE In the Line off March Many Empty Sleeve*, IJiii’iiimc t«Hltw mill nat 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.

ITALIAN FLEET ORDERED TO SAIL Squat (Iron.* aaf ISnfslAiitl* Krnnce mad Austria Will Caa-upernte laa Ku furcaaiK Proaaiist'tl Reforms in Maacealoitiat. 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. TorpiMlo Typi* Yuclit I* a Flier. NEW YORK. Aug. fin.
