Rear Admiral Kirkland, U. 8. N., died at 7 o'clock last evening at Vallejo, Cal. ile expired peacefully, his wife and son being im the death chamber at the time. Dr. Hibbetts of the U. 8. 8. Independence and Dr. Wagner, navy yard surgeon, were also present. Father Riginall of St. Vincent's Church was with the admiral three hours before he breathed ris last. The admiral had rallied from the effects of an operation for acute constriction of the bowels, which was performed on Tues- day by Dr. W. E. Taylor of San Francisco, assisted by several other surgeons, and Thursday night it was stated that he had a fighting chance for life. Yesterday murn- ing he seemed somewhat better, and dur- iig the day his family and friends were hopeful that his life might be spare’. At 5 o'clock p.m., however, he began to sink. and as the darkness came on gradually grew worse, until, two hours later, he ceased to breathe, dying without evidence ef pain. The funeral will take place from St. Vin- cent’s Catholic Church of Vallejo on Sun- day. The remains have beea empalunes, and will be placed temporarily in the vavit at St. Vincent's cemetery. Later they will be removed to Brockiyn, N. Y., for inter- ment besiae the remains of his daughter, who is buried tere. The sentiment at the navy yard is that work snould be suspended today as a token ot respect for the dead admiral. William A. Kirkiand was voin in North Carolina July 3, 1836, and was appointed to the navy from that state suly 2, lao He was iirst attached to the sloop Ports- mouth, and then to the frigate Si. Law- rence, and served with the Pacific squad- ron until 1853. He then spent some time at the Naval Academy, and was promoted to passed midshipman’ June 20, 1856. He served with the Brazil squadron until 1862, being commissioned lieutenant March 1S. 1858, and lieutenant commander July 16, 1sé2, He was then assigned to the China station, serving there and in the East In- dies until 1864. During the greater part of the civil war Lieutenant Commander Kirkland was away from the scone of acticn, but in 1864 he was ordered home and placed in command of the ironclad Winnebago, of the western gult blockading squadron. He served un- der Acting Rear Admiral Thatcher in the ecmbined movements of th> military and naval forces against the defenses of Mo- bile, which resulted in the capture of that gity and the surrender of the confedzrai> et. From 1866 to 1870 he commanded the steamer Wasp, of the South Atlantic squad- ren, He commanded the same ship from 1s75 to 1876, and was from time to tim: with the same squadron “inzi. He was made a in f and promoted a_captai H> was attached to the Norfolk navy yard in 13%}, and was at the Brooklyn navy yard from October, 1884, to 1886, and during the firs: part of that time was in command. From October, 1889, to July, 1891, he was super- visor of New York karbor, when he b2- cume commandant of the League Islanc navy yard at Philad>Iphia. He was commissioned as commodore Jun: 27, 1808, and rear admiral March 1, 1s94 Admiral Kirkland was then placed in com mend of the European jon, a place which he retained until November, when ordered home. His next assigt did not come till June 1, 1895, when ic was placed in command of the Mare Islanc navy yard, at San Francisco, wh. mained until prevented from fur vice by the illness and the oj resulted in his death. He x July 3 of the present year, but was to have continued his command untii tae ternuna tion of the war permitted his relief by a1 oflicer on the active list. He w t his re- tirement, the senior ranking officer on the active list. Admiral Kirkland’s name was brought into prominence at the tim> of his detach- ment from the European squadron in Oc- tober, 1895. Dissatisfaction was first caused by the action of the admiral in sending a letter of congratulation on his election President Faure of France. He was r2pri- manded by Secretary Herbert, who hei that th place of the admiral, representing the dignity of the United States navy in Europ2an waters, precluded him from mak- ing any comment on French politics. Ad- miral Kirkland appealed to Presidenr Cleveland to overrule Secretary Herbert offering as his defense that he had know: Presid>nt Faure personally and had con- gratulated him in a personal capacity, and not as an officer of the United States nav: Admiral Kirkland again cam= into public notice through a newspaper interview in which he made some comments on the character of American missionari>s in Syria, whither he had gone to give them protection in the Armenian troubles. In recalling Admiral Kirkland there was no disposition on the part of the govern- ment to belittle his r2cord as a sailor. He was always looked upon as a man of action and quick perception, and always ready to do his duty. CONDITIONS AT MONTAUK POINT. The Quartermaster Reports to the War Department. The quartermaster at Montauk Point re- ported as follows to the War Department yesterday afternoon: “Almost incessant rains during the past forty-eight hours and the arrival of troops by rail have caused the congested condi- tion; it is fair today, every one in good spirits, working earnestly, and much sys- tematic work is being done. General hos- pital will have floored tents for 250, and contagious hospital for 100, and one deten- tion camp for 1,000 will be ready this after- noon. Ail troops arrived by trains are in camp. Water situation promising. I feel reasonably certain there will be enough good water for the entire camp by Sunday, and before the end of next week a reserve supply to meet any emergency, including break-down of machinery. In the mean- time the water from lake and ponds is be- ing used, and is safe to use. : General it 515 Seventh Street.

Policeman Cornwell entered a charge of vagrancy against Mamie Harris, a colored resident of Boston, when she appeared be- fore the Police Court today.

Where Washingtonians Are Seeking Col. Horatio Davies, lord mayor of Lon- don, who sails for this country nxt week, will be accompanied by his daughter, Miss Davies. As the multiplicity of titles and honors ‘which are now enjoyed by this gentleman will cease at the end of his year’s term of office, it is to be presum2d he is coming to the states in his official cepacity, and very naturally will expect the same hospitalities we are always only too happy to confer upon visiting notabili- ties. In fact, coming as he may to Wash- ington during the deadly dullness of the early autumn, when officialdom may be taking its well-earned holiday, a London lord mayor wi!l be a pleasant break in the monotony, and will be correspondingly ap- preclated. Both practically and theoret- ically, a lord inayor is a great man at the English capital, and the titl:s of which he is a possessor for one year are tremendous- ly imposing. His salary for that blissful period is as large as that of the President of the United States, with an official resi- dence in Mansion House and allowances for a suitabl> retinue, with chapiains and hangmen. It has been said, however, ti the expenses of the position are greatly in excess of the emoluments, and none but a rich man could afford the short-term lux- ury. Col. Davizs has both education ani culture, and his residence at a suburban point near London shows these advantag-s. He is a self-made man, having acquired a large fortune és an oysier dealer, and mor: latterly as a company promoter. His hoz- pitdlitizs since assuming his honors in Lon- don have been magnificently planned, but in good taste. Altogether, the coming lord mayor is an interesting personage, the more so that he comes with his honors in the present tense and accompanied by a charming young daughter who is equally anxious to see as much as she can of the greatest country of the world. Prince Victor, Count of Turin, has been taking in the sights of the Chicago stock yards, and has had a chance to see the vulgar machinery, whose revolutions have made the great fortunes of the west, and supplied the magnificence and luxury of some of the households on the Newport Cliffs, where he had such a splendid time lately. Mr. Phil Armour, jr., wouid have been glad to have enterialned the prince at his own table at dinner, but the latter could only find time to accept an informal junch at the stock yards restaurant with him.
