Herman Miles, General Rodgers, Gen eral Stone, Colonel Maus, Colonel Mich ler, Colonel Major Daly, Chief Surgeon Major Seyburn, Major Davis, Captain Alger, lieutenant Rowan, Lieutenant Parker and Lieutenant Townsley. General Collazo and Colonel Hernan dez of the Cuban army were of the party, as were also four privates of the Sixth Cavalry, who will act as order lies, and eleven secretaries and clerks.

He said that all the States and Territories had filled their quota, so far as the recruiting of troops is concerned, and that while th-ee States were apparently beNnd, it was not their fault, bu was due to the inability of the mustering officers to complete their work. The apparent shortage is divided between the States of lowa, Mississipi and North Carolina, The j troops in these States are In camp, however, awaiting the action of the Government's officers, and will be mus tered into the volunteer army In a day or two. TAMPA, Fla., May 30.— Information has been received here of the successful landing of a Florida expedition which left Port Tampa for Cuba on May 16.

The force is commanded by General La cret. General Julio Sanguilly and Col onel Baldomero Acosta. CKICKAMAUGA, May 30. — The greatest excitement prevailed in Camp Thomas to-day over the rumor that a general order had been issued to all troops in camp here to proceed at once to Tampa, Every man seemed to be glad, and there was a general hustling about in the various camps, each man i acting as though he expected to be or i dered to pack his traps on the instant to be ready to move to the front. The rumor when traced to its source proved to be only partly true, only eight regi ments being affected by an order from the War Department, as follows: First Ohio, One Hundred and Fifty-Seventh Indiana, Third Pennsylvania and First Illinois, to be commanded by Briga dier-General Simon Snyder; Second New York, Sixty-ninth New York. Fifth Maryland and First District of Columbia, under command of Briga dier-General Lewis H. Carpenter. These regiments are ordered to pro ceed at once to Tampa, and the work of preparation began to-night. It Is understood that four of the regiments will leave to-morrow and the other four Wednesday. The regiments ordered out are regarded as the best equipped and most thoroughly prepared in the camp. This order is regarded by the officers and men as an indication that a speedy forward movement is to be made on Cuba and Porto Rico, and as a consequence there was as great re joicing among the volunteer soldier boys as there was among the regulars when they went to Tampa under the Impression that they were going at once to Cuba, With those regiments that arrived to-day the troops at the park number 45,000. The regiments ordered away number 6000. ATLANTA, May 80.— Ten hundred and thirty-three recruits left for Tam pa to-day. The men were not uni formed and lacked guns.

DENOUNCE INFAMOUS TALES CHARLES ARMSTBONG WILL BE SPEEDILY TBIED. A Determination to Blot Out All Ele ments of Scandal in the North Oakland M. £. Church. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, May 30. Now that the trial committee of the Thirty-fourth Street Methodist Church has decided that George C. Nail, the su perintendent of the Sunday school, did in vite the attractive young wife of an elder ly member of the church to take an even- Ing trip to the Cliff House, the condition of affairs is reversed. The pastor will now assume the aggressive and will demand full satisfaction. In the reply to the charges brought against Nail were some very strong pas sages. Rev. E. Francis Brown was ac- cused of worse indiscretions than those charged against Nail, and it was an nounced that these were supported by affidavits in the possession of Nail and his co-panner In disgrace. Armstrong. Both men signed a lengthy document In which Rev. E. F. Brown was specifically accused : 1. Of corrupt, negligent and partisan ad ministration. 2. Of falsehood and immorality. 3. Of hlgti imprudence and unminlsterial conduct. In proof of these charges the following statement of alleged facts was made: That thereafter said Brown was informed that witnesses from his own church in Win nemucca, New, had severally stated that he had insulted, by improper proposals, one of his parishioners there, Mrs. Alfred Cook, and had also In said State of Nevada been guilty of similar improper conduct. That raid Brown stated he wished all thli kept quiot, and that if it was he would with draw all charges made. That in pursuance of this plan said Brown procured the attendance at his house of said Nail and his wife and said Armstrong and his wife, and in their pres ence withdrew all charges and stated in that connection that Mrs. Hattie F. Lone: had lied to him, wrs a bad woman, and that he (Brown) would not believe her In anything, and that if Mrs. J..ong had not slpned certain papers he would have read her out of the church. These are the charges that the friends of the pastor now declare they will dis prove. One of Mr. Brown's strongest sup porters said to-day: "These proceedings will probably be taken to the civil and criminal courts. An attempt has been made to blacken the character of the pas tor because he refused to aFlow everybody who felt so inclined to run the church. Mr. Nail has made a grievous mistake, and if he is wise he will get as far away from the church as he can. I see he is quoted as saying that he will join another church. That is a very tame way for a man to act who stated he had affidavits to support his story. I do not believe he has any proof whatever, and I would not be surprised if he were arrested for slander. Charles F. Armstrong has yet to be tried by the committee. The charges aeainst'hlm are similar to those of which Nail was found guilty, and the testimony will be the same. Eureka Red Cross Work.
