Arrived At Savannah

ARRIVED AT SAVANNAH.

The Thirty-First Michigan Has Gone Into Camp There.

The Thirty-First Michigan arrived within three miles of Savannah at 9 o'clock Tuesday night, says a correspondent of the Detroit News, and were held there all night because the Plant system refused to move it to camp until morning.

The cars of the second section were hardly fit for human beings to ride in, and the men were uncomfortable during the entire trip. They were poorly ventilated, and yesterday there was no fuel, water or oil on board.

When it came time for supper Tuesday night the men had to light the few candles some happened to have with them. Most of the officers had to go without supper, as the people at Everett were so afraid that some of their belongings would be stolen that they put nearly everything in the cellar, and the stores, with the exception of two saloons, were closed. Col. Gardener says he is going to report the matter to the quartermaster general.

Yesterday morning it was raining, and the men unloaded the baggage and pitched their tents. It is probable that the regiment will be here a week. Last night's Savannah Press devoted two columns to the Thirty-first, giving the history of each company. The Detroit Light Guard's history from early in the fifties was given.

There were no casualties en route and the boys are in a fine condition. A transport is expected on Saturday to take them to Cuba.
