June 30.—The order issued yes

information that the entire First
army corps would be sent to Cu
ba has doubled the activity at
Camp Thomas.
'lhe work of completely equip
ping and arming the twenty
seven regiments is an immense
task for the short time in which
it must be accomplished, but
the work is already in progress,
and the officials say it will be
finished much sooner than is
generally believed here.
Everybody in the twenty sev
en regiments from colonels to
privates are bustling todry and
considerable rivalry to be the
first to get in shape is in evi
dence.
It is believed that all under

THE ROME HUSTLER-COMMERCIAL
DISRUPTION
Os The iiliio Coal Trilst
Threatened.
A PLAN TO BOYCOTT IS
Broken up by Railroads Strike
Expected.
Cleveland, 0., June 30.—The
great Ohio coal trust, which was
organized last fall, and which
controls every pound of coal
mined in Ohio, is on the verge
of collapse.
Every coal road in Olro is in
the combine. Each agreed to
act as selling agent for the mine
operators, and turn over a per
centage of money to the mine
owners, and keep the remainder
for freight charges. The rail
ways agreed to keep West Vir
ginia coal out of the lake mar
net by keeping up prohibitive
freight rates.
Now it is alleged the Balti
moie & Ohio, the Wheeling &
Lake Erie and the Cleveland,
Lorain & Wheeling Railway are
secretly carrying West Virginia
coal to the lakes at low rates.
This, it is said, will result in a
disruption ol the trust.
STRIKE MAY FOLLOW.
A prominent Ohio coal opera
tor said today : “If the Ohio
trust is broken I anticipate the
greatest strike of miners in the
history of the business. West
Virginia operators were not a
party to the Chicago agreement
as to wages and the lake mar
kets will be flooded with coal
from that state. To protect
themselves Ohio and Pennsylva
nia producers will be obliged to
break the wage agreement, and
a strike will follow.
CAMARA BEGS FOR COAL.
But Egypt is Fip.m And Declines
To Yield a Point.
New York, June 30-A special
to The Tribune from Port Said,
says:
Admiral Camara, instead of the
10,000 tons of coal for which he
■isked on Sunday now demands
3,500 tons, as he insisted
upon bemg allowed to take thi
smaller quantity after firm but
courteous refusals, the goveinor
of Port Said at last formally noth
tied the admiral that under the
circumstances any coaling what
ever of the Spanish fleet in JFgyp
ian waters would be forcibly 'pre
vented.
The Buenos Ayres, the Colon,
the Isla de Paor»y and the Cor
adanga have been removed into

ONE BIRD RELEASED
Strange Message Carriers
Found at Key West.
Key West. Fla., June 30—Dur
ing 'he past week a dozan strange
carrier pigeopa have been found in
the Government dovo-cofe in this
city. All are marked in the same
manner. For instance, the last
four ciptured are marked: “A 5,
588.” “A 5. 573,” “A 29. 626,”
“A 17, 428.”
It is believed h re that these
pigeons constitute a <-ignal code,
and, as all the pigeons are from
the same cote, and sent out by the
same parties, that they were set
free by Spanish spies with the
hope that they would reach Cuba.
If this be true, the pigeons have
been away from Cuba too long, or
else they simply stopped here to
rest and were captured by the Gov
ernment officials,
ONE BIRD RELEASED.
A pigeon with a similar mark
went on board the schooner Puge,
about 40 miles north ot this city
yesterday Captain Prior examined
the bird, found the message, and,
concluding that it was a govern
ment message, set it free again.
Although the pigeon fl.-w south
when released it has not been
heard of here yet, and it is pre
sumed the bird kept on its journey
to Cuba, probably carrying im
portant news of the movemen’s of
our army and navy t 1 General
Blanco.
