Commendation of the Marines of the Battle fleet and scouting fleet who Bave been on duty in Nicaragua was ven yesterday by Rear Admiral David ', Seilers, commander of the special service squadron, in a communication made public at the Navy Department. About one-third of the entire Marine Corps force in Nicaragua will be trans- d soon to their respective ships. ose destined for the scouting fleet ships will go on the U. S. S. Nitro, sail- ing from Corinto about January 19 for the Canal Zone, while the Marines bound for the battle fleet will lea Corinto about January 23 on the U. S. 8. Medusa to rejoin their vessels. This movement involves 947 enlisted men and 30 officers. Admiral Sellers’ statement follows: “Upon_the evacuation of Nicaragua by the Marine detachments from the United States flest the commander of the special service squadron wishes to take this opportunity to express his aj preciation of the excellent service ren- dered by them. Through their entire stay in Nicaragua they performed all duties assigned them cheerfully, will- ingly and efficiently and in a manner that commanded the respect of all those ‘with whom they came in contact. Their conduct was uniformly excellent and their discipline and soldierly appear- ance not only caused favorable comment, but - reflected great credit upon their officers and upon the fleet. It has been ® pleasure to have had them under my command.” WOMAN OF 69 INJURED ON LOADING PLATFORM While boarding a street car at Penn- | sylvania avenue and Thirteenth street | yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Mary A. | Bucher, 69 years old, 1650 Fuller street, was knocked down on the loading plat- form as a result of a collision between two street cars.
