ST. PftUL FEELS TttE SPIRIT OF Wftß LAST DAY AT FORT SNELLING EVERYTHING READY FOR DE PARTURE THIS MORNING Ko Drill* of Any Kind Held Yexter iln>. and the Gnnrd Mount the Only Military Formality Observed Men Were ltu»y Attending to Their Own Aflulrs and Officers \rrniiKlnu l-'iiuil !>etiill«. FYirt Snelling presented an extra ordinary appearance yesterday. No drills of any kind were held, and the only military formality observed was the guard mount at 9 o'clock in the morning. The men were allowed to do almost as they pleased, many coming to the city on short leave, and others spending their time about their quarters arranging for departure to day. Col. Page was at the administration building all day, receiving reports from members of hie staff and issuing di rections as they became necessary. During the morning word passed along the line and from the quarter master's department that the loading of freight and maintenance supplies would commence at noon. There was more activity after that time than there has been for several days. The army wagons and teams were not suf- Btfent to perform the work and several Immense trucks, with crews of men from the city, were sent out. The load- Ing will be completed by 9 o'clock this morning. Enlistments at the fort were still be ing received yesterday. About forty applications were received before night, and of this number fully half were ac cepted, for the reason that in the pres ent emergency the government require ments are made less exacting. When the regiment boards the train at Port Snelling this morning it will be equipped precisely as it will be on the field. The total weight of haversacks, knapsacks, ammunition, gun, shelter tent, blankets, etc., carried by each man will be between fifty-live and six ty-five pounds. The regulation outfit will consist of a change of underwear, an extra pair of shoes, one woolen blanket, one rubber blanket, one shel ter tent, tin cup and plate, steel knives and forks, hairbrush, comb and tooth brush, handkerchiefs, cake of soap and two towels, canteen, which, with gun and ammunition, will weigh about fif ty-five pounds. The soldiers will undoubtedly smug gle in "extras," which are not sanc tioned by military rules, and which would be excluded under a rigid in spection. The work of carrying such a weight any long distance, in a hot Southern climate, can be appreciated by any one who has carried a sack of flour from a backer's wagon to the back door. It is no easy task, and none but the strongest men can endure it. The Snelling wheel corps will not be taken as a body. No bicycles will at>> company the troops south. Col. Page said yesterday with a smile that the mud in Cuba was of such nature that wheeling became very unpleasant work. The officers will take their horses. Most of the steeds were taken to the regimental blacksmith shop yesterday and unshod in order to bet ter withstand the hardships of railway travel. Company commanders have been or dered to turn over from the company funds $2 per man, to Capt. Gerlach, for the mess of the men left behind. The same orders appointed Capt. William Gerlach, Third infantry> as acting assistant quartermaster and commissary of subsistence ait the post, and directs him to relieve Lieut. Omar Bunday, of the Third regiment, of the duties of these offices upon the depart ure of the regiment for Mobile. Lieut. James M. McAndrewa is ap pointed acting quartermaster and com missary of subsistence during the trip from St. Paul to Mobile. The trip will last probably two and one-half days. Sunday night and last night the men slept on ahe floor of the barracks, roll ed in their woolen and rubber blankets. -All other bedcMng had been packed and stored in the quartermaster's ware houses. Some grumbled, but others said it would be good practice for what would very likely follow. The bar racks look destitute enough ait present. Maj. Sanno received orders Sunday, detailing him as acting inspector gener al of the department of the Missouri. He will be attached to the staff of Gen. Coppinger, and will not go South. The major accents the assignment like a soldier, but presumably would prefer to go to the front. Capt. Hale will act as major of the regiment. Lieut. Dwyer will be acting captain of the com pany. ADJITAXT GENERAL. MEEHLBEH6. His OfHee at the State Capitol the Center of Interest. The most interesting place in the statD capltol at this time Is the office of Adjt. Gen. Muehlberg. Since the prospect of war with Brain the adjutant general has been eagerly sought by those in and out of the Etate hove for the very latest gossip regarding the pros pective ropflct. He believes there is to be war, and makes no bones of saying so. He was delighted yesterday at the manner in which his order >> PURITAN DAMES. V^ ; s^ ISS^H colony which was r^i / BE^t one *° come here 1J hardships and difficul * ties as shall fall upon them." What self-renunciation and heroic purpose waa this! They drowned witches to be sure, but that was no part of their puritanism. It Is tc the puritan women we owe so much for that spirit in our people which gives them the fortitude to endure hardship and stake life and fortune for their convictions. The American women of to-day have, the spirit of their puritan mothers, but their constitutions are not rugged or able to en dure half the hardships of these New Eng land ancestors. Very often they are run down with weaknesses and irregularities peculiar to their &ex, and the constant drain upon their vitality makes them chronic in valids. Many women hesitate to go to their family physician, because they dread the local examinations so generally insisted upon by practitioners. Such women should write Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. V., giving a full description of their symptoms, history, etc., 6O that he can give them the best possible medical advice. If Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescrip tion seems to suit the case the Doctor will 6ay so. If not, then he will give medical advice which will put such women on tha rapid road to recovery and health. allowing the recruiting ot the notional guard companies to 100 men had been taken hod of. Not only In. the cities, hut as well In the country towns, where" there \r& Conv panies, the work wbb pushed rapidly, and a telegram received yesterday from Albert Le* Z f. re S. ompany l ot tho Second regiment Is stationed, said that in three hours the total A. P«Ued up from 60 to 100 men. There has been considerable talk about stores and equipment, and the adjutant gen eral explained that in the event of a call for the national guardsmen, the governm_ent will forthwith issue such equipment as Is neces sary This equipment and stores may or "may not inclued the Improved Krag-Jorgenson riflea, depending whether the guardsmen are to be called upon to do active duty or simply the guarding of posts or forts. The Minnesota guardsmen are at present equipped with Springfield breechloading rifles, which will hardly do in a batUe with the Spaniards, who have the improved guns Two years ago the United States army was Bup plled with the new Krag-Jorgenson Spriugneld magazine gun. If the Minnesota guard is called upon. Gen. Muehlberg thinks that on a basis of a call for 100,000 men there will be needed from this state something like 4,000 men. The supplies which will be issued by the government in the event of active service will be shelter tents, rubber blankets, cooking utensils, and ammunition. BOUND FOR THE SOUTH GEN.

A large number of friends of the de parting officers assembled at the depot to bid them Godspeed, and the parties were given a hearty cheer as they step ped aboard the two trains. The contracts for transporting the Second and Third infantry and the Tenth cavalry were awarded yesterday. The Milwaukee road will carry the Snelling troops to Chicago, from where they will go to Mobile, Ala., by way of the Illinois Central and the Mobile & Ohio. The regiment and equipment will take up two trains, consisting of a passenger train made up of one first class sleeper and fourteen tourist cars, and a freight train to carry the camp paraphernalia, horses, mules, rations and provender. The Northern Pacific will carry the Second regiment to St. Paul, and will transfer the troops at St. Paul to the Burlington, by which road they will go to St. Louis, thence by the Mobile & Ohio to Mobile. The four companies of this regiment stationed at Fort Keogh will leave there at 2 p. m. tomorrow and arrive at St. Paul at 4 p. m. Thursday. The two companies at Fort Harrison will start at 11 a. m. tomorrow, joining the Keogh companies at Fort Keogh.

Bacon, the new commander of the de partment of Dakota, may have his hands full of Indians while Uncle Sam is driving the Spaniards out of Cuba. Advices have been received that Indians in the West are giving evidences of disturbance. The braves in Oklahoma are already par ticipating in "sun" dances, and a disturbed condition is apparent in other parts. It is thought that the Indians will take advantage of the absence of the regulars to become troublesome. In case there should be an Indian upris ing the officers in the regular army will be badly missed. They are familiar with tho Indian chiefs, and know how to humor and threaten, as occasion demands. If the militia be ordered into service, it is expected that several companies will be assigned to forts in the West to meet pny Indian emergency. Col. Bacon will name his aids in a day or two. He will have a corps of officers under him. Among the prominent officials remaining at the army building are Col. John J. Claque, assistant commissary general; Col. Carey, chief paymaster; Ma]. Tucker, of the v>ay ; master department; Col. Tilton, chief medical director, and Col. Hunter, judge advocate general, who will temporarily act as adjutant general, in addition to other duties.

Bobleter to recruit Company G to 100 men at once. The order was published at 6 o'clock p. m. and before 10 o'clock twenty-seven men enlisted. Waseca, Minn., April 18.— Capt.

WILL START FROM THE FORT THE SNELLING EEGIMENT WILL NOT COME TO TOWN Plana for Giving? the Boys a Royal Send-Off Have to Be Abandoned at the Lait Minute There Will Be No Break In the School Session Troop* Start at 11 O'Clofck. The Fort Snellin« soldiers will not come down town today. They will board the cars at the fort at 11 o'clock and start for the front without giving the people of St. Paul a chance to show how thoroughly popular the crack or ganization is. It will be a disappointment to the people to learn this morning that a change in the plans was ordered at the last minute, and that they will not have a chance to cheer the boys on their departure. When It was first supposed that the regiment would come into the city and take the train at the union depot, the suggestion was made to President Zim mermann, of the school board, by Silas Forman, that the schools should be closed today to give the children a ohanoe to learn a lesson in patriotism. President Zimmermann at once put himself in communication with other members of the board, and it was de cided to notify the principals of all the schools this morning, to dismiss the scholars in time for them to see the pa rade. When, however, it was learned that the company would take the train at the fort this idea was given up. The schools will, therefore, continue unin terrupted, though it is likely that many of the boys will find their way to the fort this forenoon. If the soldiers of the Third had come to the oity, they would have received an enthusiastic sendoff. Secretary Stine, acting for the Commercial club, even after the orders had been given changing the place of departure, did not give up hope of having them leave from down town. He went to Gen. Wade, who said that if Col. Page wish ed he could bring the regiment into the cMy. A trip to the fort was made, but, as it was then nearly 6 o'clock and the soldiers notified that they would start from that point, Col. Page decided it was too late to change the orders he had already given. All the plans to give the soldiers a patriotic start had to be abandoned. CONGRESSJS FOR WAR Continued from First Page. to preserve order, the members gath ered in groups about the chamber, ex citedly discussing the various phases of the question of the hour. A feeling of bitterness grew up be tween the senate and the house during the late afternoon and evening that at one time seemed likely to delay ac tion. Cooler counsels prevailed, how ever, and a determination of the mo mentous question was finally reached. Those who were fighting for recogni tion of the island republic early decid ed that the senate should not take the initiative in requesting a conference between the two houses. They further ■ resolved that when, the senate conferees I were finally appointed at least two of them should represent the majority sentiment of the body. The radical advocates of independence slowly, but none the less surely lost ground, how ever, being swept back by the powerful and compact minority opposed to them. They yielded only after one of the bit terest contests in the history of the senate. They capitulated but did not sur render. The scene in the senate even up to the minute of adjournment was one of wonderful beauty and impres siveness. Hundreds of brilliantly at tired women and men in evening dre.=s filled the galleries. On the floor were the makers of the country's history, awaiting the verdict from the confer ence committee. When finally it came there was a hush in the great chamber, which a few seconds before had been thrilling with animation. When the verdict had been returned and accepted by the sen ate, the great audience dispersed — dis persed quietly, almost solemnly. All realized that the verdict meant war, and the action taken was too mo mentous to inspire anything less than awe. SENATE STANDS OUT. Unwilling: to Accept the Action of the House. Comparatively few people were in the galleries when the senate assembled. Mr. Rawlins (Utah) presented a legal argument upon the question whether the authority to recognize a foreign nation rested exclusively with the pres ident. Mr. Rawlins was given only slight attention, as, within a minute after" he began to speak, the action, of the house on the senate Cuban resolutions was whispered about the chamber, and that immediately became the sole topic of interest. At 2:53 p. m., the message clerk of the house of representatives appeared at the entrance of the senate with a package of bills and resolutions in hand. Almost immediately Vice Presi dent Hobart, interrupting- the debate, recognized the clerk. He presented to the senate several bills and resolu tions, which had been passed by the house., including that relating to the intervention of the United States in the Cuban rebellion. The last were the resolutions adopted by the senate on Saturday night and agreed to today by the house, with certain amendments. There was an instant commotion in the chamber. Scores of members of the house were on the floor awaiting the action of the senate upon the house amendments and, although nearly every senator at the capital was present, Mr. Chandler (N. H.) noted the absence of a Quo rum, and demanded a call of the sen ate. The roll call Indicated the presence of seventy-five senators. Mr. Davis the distinguished chairman of the for eign relations committee, requested that the message from the house con cerning the Cuban resolutions be laid before the senate. After the reading of the message, Mr. Davis addressed the senate. Davis Explains. The stillness as he began to speak was profound. He spoke clearly, but rapidly. He said: •rihV mv .. anxlet y to secure the speediest pog rJfMi!^ 0 ? UP °» ,^ c Ereat question. I have refrained from taking any part in the de bate until the present time, and now desire to Bay but a few words. The joint resolution as it comes from the and is now before us adopts precisely ™™ a th t c ce P«°ns which I will notice in a « V2l , the J ?. lnt res °lution which was reported from the senate committee on for- e !£ n relations, with the addition of the rSn" m€Dt P re P a ™a by the senator from S™ »r° f ?"i proposed by me.

In the meantime the indignity inflicted upon thi nation by the destruction of the Maine, hag, j remained. ugsbMtteed: hi the meantime many lives have passed away, Jfhile; we have been debating over this question. In the mean time a perilous and distressing conflict of opinion as to the power ' of this government has arisen, respecting the power of the presi dent, and the power of the congress at a time when it Is most Important to have the utmost consideration of views, and temperate ness of feeling. We have arrived at a time when In twenty minutes we can settle this entire question and relieve the situation of the exasperating suspense which has been Imposed upon the American people. In regard to the question of the recognition of the independence of Cuba, I think no man doubts, I think no man has any right to doubt, that, as the result of the Intervention of this government the Independence of that republic will follow Immediately and that Its existence must be conceded to-be a historical and also a present fact, that recognition will be of the present government, Inasmuch as tt Is well known that 80 per cent of the inhabi tants of the island of Cuba are in It's favor. ■But, now, Mr. President, appealing to that desire which we all have that the action of this great government shall be no longer de cayed, that we shall not pause to embarass ourselves and this great controversy in peril ous contradictions of the various powers of the executive and legislative departments of the government, realising perfectly well that the desire which everybody entertains that the ouestion of recognition shall be settled at the earliest possible moment, and that it can be settled tomorrow or the next day or in a week from now or at any time when ever It may be necssary. I now move to concur in the house amendments. The motion had scarcely been entered ■when Mr. Stewart addressed the senate: '•Jt is true," saild he, "that this ques tion can be settled immediately, but it is necessary that it should be settled rightly, and it cannot be settled until the freedom ami independence of the Cuban republic are recognized." Adverse Vote. Mr. Stewart yielded to Mr. Teller, who said 'there was a very general de sire for a vote upon the message from the house, and appealed to the senate to forego further debate In order thait a vote might be taken. Cries of "Vote, vote, vote!" were heard from all parts of the chamber. Mr. Chandler demanded the yeas and nays. Mr. Davis' motion to concur In the house amendments was defeated, 32 to 46, the detailed vote being- as follows: Yeas — 'Aldrich, Allison, Burrows, Carter Clark, Cullom, Deboe, Elkins, Fairbanks! Faulkner, Frye, Gear, Gorman, Gray, Hale' Manna, Hansbroug'h, Hawley, Hoar, Lodge' McMillan, Morgan, Morrill,.- Platt' Conn.)'

Turpie Vest White-46. , ' ' Mr. Davis then moved that the senate Insist upon its amendment to the house resolution, and that the president of the senate appoint its conferees. "Let that motion be de manded Mr. Daniel (Va.). From the Democratic side of the chamber came such expressions as: "We don't want a conference," "Let's settle this question right now while we are at it," etc. Mr. Hale (Me.) said that he had never known in his long experience in the senate, when the two houses were at odds, a corramlttee of conference to be refused. Conferees were appointed in order thait the differences between the two houses might be dissolved and an agreement reached satisfactory to both without inflammatory speeches on the floor of either branch. He main tained that it was the duty of the sen ate to appoint conferees to assemble in solemn conclave in art endeavor to adjust the differences between the two branches of congress. ' Responsibility for Delay. After briefly discussing the parlia- I mentary status of the resolutions, Mr. Hale said that there was an evident determination in the senate, upon the part of the temporary majority, to dragoon everybody into its way' of thinking. The proposition for a con ference was to be voted down, he de clared, and these in temporary major ity, who have been, demanding imme diate action, would have to take the responsibility for any delay that might now occur. He believed the stern arbitrament w t ,-^ ar r. would soon be u P°n us. While the temporary majority here could now control the situation the whole country would understand' that that majority was preventing definite action upon the momentous question at issue, simply by standing out for the recognition of the independence of the Cuban republic, a recognition which all of the great lawyers of the senate in cluding Mr. Morgan (Ala.), had con sistently and ably opposed. a*^* f 6 M ln T avor of B P ee <iy action," declared Mr. Hale, "because we be lieve tihat the time for action has now come, and we are prepared to submit the question of difference between the two houses to conference." Without division, the first part of Mr. Davis' motion, insisting um>n the £r ate amendments, was passed. Mr Aldrich (R. I.), briefly address ing the senate, said he had never known, during his service In the sen ate, such a course as was proposed by the majority to be insisted upon and he thought the senators in favor Ith?;'1 th ?;' c ?. u ™c ougiht to give some rea son for the position they had taken cd Wa tL P t e l eCtly eyident ' Mr - AWri <* tion'at au maJority desired no *c- JPitS&fr Mn Jon€S (Ark > maintain reanell ' CT the Part ° f the houss to request that a conference committee be appointed and thus far the house had not asked for a conference.

During the consideration of the sun dry civil appropriation ibill, Mr. Allen took the floor to say that Mr. Hale had £f I mlst^en when, on last Saturday he . *! ad »id that t»e: change of front on the part of certain senators on the Cuban question has been due to the presence in the city of.< Hon. William J. Bryan. He had interviews read with M J & ? t0 Sfl ow that ,Mr. Bryan had supported all the' movements made looking to the advancement of the American cause in ,the Cuban situation. An amendment was agreed to pro viding that the commissioners to the Paris exposition should be of more tnan one party; appropriating $50,000 J^ a building site at Butte City, Mont.; $50,000 for a building at Fort Meade, to.

The clerk pre sented to the senate the house's noti fication that the house had insisted upon its amendments and asked for a conference. The message was at once laid before the senate. Mr. Davis moved that the senate dis continued on Seventh Page. THESE WOULD BE SOLDIERS LIST OF RECBTJITS AT THE ABMOBY YESTEBDAY Capt.

An officer was de tailed to instruct them in the use of arms, and though many were awkward at first, they soon learned the rudi ments. Capt. Bean will not accept recrudts after today. He has nearly as many as he wants now, but he will accept a few more. He has 111 men in the com pany, but he would like twenty more. When he has secured them he will close the enlistment books and be ready for the field. Recruiting Officer F. E. Krembs was at the armory all day yesterday and he will be there today in Company D room. This will be drill night and every recruit is wanted. Those who do not appear will be considered to have changed their minds and will not be in good standing in the company. This will also be drill night for Com pany E, and Capt. Spear expects every recruit to be on hand. There is no time to be lost in bringing the entire company up to a high degree of effi ciency and those who have a real de sire to serve in the war will be on hand. J. P.

Whitney, general passenger agent of the Great Northern railway, and a member of the special committee appointed to confer with the Canadian Pacific road regarding the demoralized Pacific coast rates, returned yes terday from New York, where he attended the meeting of the committee and representatives of the Canadian line. Tlhe conference was a failure bo far as a restoration of rates is concerned. The Cana dian Pacific Etill stubbornly insisted upon its right to differentials and the committee was just as determined not to allow any differentials under any circumstances. A set tlement of the difficulty now seems impossl fcla. The question at Issue la whether from a point In the United States to another point In the United States a United States railroad should have the privilege of carrying passen gers as cheaply as a foreign corporation. To quote a well-known local official: "If the American lines do not insist upon their right WASHING POWDER tw»' y ld g0 OUt of the buslnes. ' There Is no other conference called and It looks as If the fight between the Am" can lines and the Canadian Pacific will a •■finish" affair.
