Separation of the Naval From the Land Force—A Re- tirement. What May Be Done at Fresno if There Is an Election for Colonel of the Sixth. The two events that have excited the attention of the members of the Na- tionai Guard in this city during the | past we have been the request of Colonel H. P. Bush, assistant adjutant- general of the division, and the order from headquarters at Sacramento, di- recting that hereafter the naval militia | shall report direct to headquarters m-; stead of through division headquarters, | as in the past. | As to the first there has been since the announcement of the fact that Colonel Bush had requested to be re- lieved from the dut of the position, considerable speculation as to what prompted him to take such a step. The colonel, when he was captain of Com- pany H of the old First Regiment In- fantry, proved an excellent officer and brought his company to a standard of | excellence that excited the admiration of those who were interested in the guard, and it also excited the envy of many whose companies were not up with H. As captain of the company he was a strict disciplinarian, and, as was | remarked by one of the men of his| command, when there was anything to be done, the captain insisted that it‘ should be done according to law and | regulations and it had to be done. | ‘When he became lieutenant colonel of the First it was not long before there arose a spirit of antagonism against | him, not as a man, but as a soldier of the guard, and there was a certain fac- tion of officers who would have pre- ferred to have seen some one else there, and that feeling became more rnani-: fest when he was chosen colonel of the | regiment. As the chief officer of thei regiment he demanded the same com- | pliance with rules and regulations andi law that he demanded of his men in Company H. A neglect in the per- formance of duties called forth a rep- rimand which w: not relished by those who were negligent, and while | he was respected by reason of his po- | sition, he was not liked on account of his insistence for a compliance with National Guard laws and usage. Then | when he was taken from the list and | detailed on the division staff as assi ant adjutant-general many of those | who were inimical to him set up a cry that if he was retained in that position the majority of officers on the staff would resign. He did remain and since then there has been a number of resignations. After he took office he carried out his methods of exactitude in the presentation of reports and | everything that had to pass through | headquarters. In many instances re- ports that were not made out as re- quired by law and which might have been overlooked by some, were sent back two and three times until they were in conformity with law, a matter | which with a very little extra care| could have been done in the first in- | stance as in the last. This aroused the indignation of those companies that by | reason of delay were Kkept out of | money they were entitled to draw from the State, and instead of trying to con- form with the plain rules laid down the officers of these companies spent twice as much time in “kicking” as it would have taken to do what was required of them in a proper manner, with the re- sult that they made it very uncomfort- able for the assistant adjutant-general. In an interview Colonel Bush said that his private business did not allow him the time to attend to the duties of the office as they should be attended to, and that was why he decided to ask to be relieved. It is true that the man- ner in which he conducted the affairs at headquarters took up a great deal of his time, for he personally attended to all the details and did all the clerical work, but it is generally believed that he was prompted to act as he did be- cause there were more kicks than honor in the place. Whatever may have been the true inwardness of the matter the fact remains that Major-General Nathan T. James, division commander, has been unfortunate with his staff, being unable to keep it together. Now as to the act of the command- er-in-chief in taking the naval militia out of division headquarters that is the outcome of a plan that has been a long time maturing. When the organization was first started it was known as the Naval Reserve, then it branched out into the Naval Battalion, and as it grew in strength there was a manifest desire that while the organization should be a part of the National Guard, that it should be an independent branch of the service, and the first open evi- dence of this was the change in the law of March 11, 1897, when it was designated as ‘“the naval militia of the National Guard of California.” At first it was supposed that in the haste of legislation the word militia had been unintentionally used for battalion, be-. cause in another part of the same law describing what the National Guard of the State shalil consist of are the words 2 . and five divisions of the naval battalion,” but there were some who said “wait and you will see that the +* ‘militia’ will break loose from the bal- ance of the guard.” That those parties were correct is shown by the order | which takes the naval militia out of the jurisdiction of the division com- mander and creates two divisions of the National Guard, namely the land force and the naval force. L. A. Deyoe elected first lieutenant and F. S. Munn second lieutenant of company B, Fifth Infantry, have been ordered before the examining board. The resignation of Captain W. S. ‘Winters of company D of the Seventh Infantry has been accepted. THE SECOND BRIGADE. The companies of the First Regiment and no doubt the signal corps and the trop of cavalry will mdke a fine show- ing in the parade on Golden Jubilee day. At the meeting of the board of officers of the First the matter was discussed and the details for the par- ade were left to Lieutenant Colonel Duboce. The men will parade in full dress and the majors of the several battalions are engaged in inspecting the uniforms in order that they shall be in proper condition for the big show. As the day will be a legal holiday, and the great majority of the members of the regiment who are employed in ~stores will not have to work that day, it is expected that there will be a large turn out of the membership of the regi- ment, and every effort will be made to have that portion of the procession made as imposing as possible. There has been considerabie activity In the armories, the several companies : | of the 4th inst. | to his satisfaction, diers’ banquet. | with it the po: holding business meetings and having the first drill of the year. There has been some talk of bringing the companies of the Fifth Regiment Infantry on Jubilee day to take part in the military division of the parade, but up to last Saturday Colonel Fairbanks, commanding the regiment, had not re- | ceived any advices as to that matter. | In order to take part in the parade the companies of the regiment would have to come from San Jose, Petaluma, San Rafael, Santa Rosa, Oakland, Alameda and Napa. THE THIRD BRIGADE. The signal corps of the Third Brigade held its annual meeting on the evening Various new commit- tees were appointed for the year, and J. W. Gee was unanimously re-elected clerk of the corps. The report of Lieutenant Fred L. Martin, commanding the corps, shows that it stands within one of its full quota of one officer and twenty enlist- ed men; the report presents the corps’ work during the past year, an account of its camp in Summit Valley, the oc- cupation of Diablo, Marysville Buttes, Vacaville, Auburn, Elk Grove, Antelope and other points as signal stations dur- ing the year, also other matters of in- | terest to the corps. It is a very com- plete document and comprehensive as well. A suggestion by Second Sergeant ‘Watkins that the corps inaugurate a series of bicycle field days met the hearty indorsement of Major W. W. Douglass, signal officer of the brigade. After the matter had been fully ex- plained it was decided that the corps should hold its first field day on Sun- y mnext, when the members will go out on bikes carrying flags, heliographs and other signaling apparatus. As Corporal Cosby is the only one of the | corps who has never ventured on the numb digits for not doing better work. silent steed he has been detailed, much to attend to the commissary wagon for that day. A committee was named to select signal stations and a “run” for the outing. At the close of the meeting there was an informal smoker, a short pro- gramme of song and music and a sol- There were present at the meeting Colonel John W. Guthrie of the Second Infantry, Major Doug- lass and Scott F. Ennis, As- semblyman from Sacramento and at one time a member of the corps, and each of these spoke en- | couragingly of theforps, its work and | its prospects. As predicted in this department the contest for the lieutenant-colonelcy of the Sixth Regiment of Infantry on last Wednesday was an exciting one, and it was long after midnight before the decisive ballot was cast. As al- ready stated, the contest was a sec- tional one, for the reason that the election of a lieutenant-colonel carried ibility of a change of regimental headquarters if Colonel S. S. Wright intends to carry out his purpose of resigning in spring. does then Lieutenant-Colonel Cook of Stockton, who was elected after many ballots by a majority of one, may be chosen colonel, and he will remove the headquarters from Fresno, at which point they are now located, back to Stockton, where they were for many years prior to the election of Colonel ‘Wright about a year ago. But this may be all upset, for Fresno wants to retain the headquarters, and there is a possibility that those who favor Fresno will put in the field, in case there is an election for colonel, a member of the guard in opposition to the lieutenant-colonel, who will be favorable to maintaining headquarters | at Fresno. THE NAVAL MILITIA. | It had been intended to tow the | Marion from Mare Island to this port and after mooring her alongside of the Camanche remove the stores and coal from the monitor to the Marion, then moor the last-named vessel to a berth | at Folsom-street wharf. This idea was, however, abandoned, and the Ca- | manche was towed up to the island and | there the transfer will be made, after which the Marion will steam down to | Owing to the illness of the | this karbor. Governor, who is commander-i of the land and the naval forc been decided not to bring the Marion | down until Jubilee week, as it is de- sired that the Governor should be on board. After the vessel shall have been docked all the material now in the ar- | mory on East street will be transferred to the vessel. Captain Turner, commanding the Naval Militia, expresses himself as well pleased with the order that takes the militia out of the jurisdiction of the division commander of the Na- tional Guard of this State. He ex- pressed the opinion that a commander of land forces is not the proper person to command a naval force, for the rea- son that a landsman is not up to the requirements of a naval force. He is of the opinion that in the National Guard the land and the sea forces should be as distinct as are the army and the navy of the United States. TRAFFIC MANAGE{EURIED. Services at the Late Residence and Interment at San Rafael. The funeral of Richard Gray, late well-known traffic manager of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, took place yesterday from his late residence, 26 San Jose avenue. The in- terment was at San Rafael. There was a large attendance of the friends of the | deceased, many of whom had known him for a long number of years. After the funeral services the body was shipped to San Rafael, the interment being private. —_——— HOTEL ARRIVALS. GRAND HOTEL.

Preparations Being Made for Its Celebration, but There is Doubt as to Its Date. There is considerable doubt in China- town as to when the Chinese New Year begins, and on this account it is prob- able that the celebration will not be so general as has been the usual custom in years past. The merchants differ in their ideas of the day, some claiming that January 20andothers that the 21st is the one to be celebrated, and from information given out at the Consul's house they are all wrong, and January 22 is the Chinese New Year’s day. The Consul has recently had some correspondence with the Minister at ‘Washington in regard to the matter, and the discovery has been made that heretofore the wrong day has been cel- ebrated by the Mongolians, and the correction will be made this year. In China New Year's Day falls on the 22d for this year, and the effort is to be made to have that day celebrated by the Chinese all over the world. How the mistake in the day came about originally is hard to say, but one explanation given is that the first | Chinese who came here became mixed Ro: [ Highland Ball. tSuperl‘:ly Bred Hackneys to Be | takes place to-day at 11 A. M., at the | KING Solomon's Lodge, in their dates, perhaps on account of the change in time between here and China, and by oversight or neglect the error was never remedied. In spite of the fact that they are not quite sure which day is New Year's the people are making preparations for the holl- day, and the outcome of the muddle will probably be that each individual will celebrate on the day which he thinks the proper one.. As yet no order has been issued from the Chief of Police in regard to the shooting of firecrackers, but it is thought that form of celebration will be permitted this year, although it was prohibited last year. Everything seems to be quiet among the highbinder so- cieties, and no rumor of trouble has reached the ears of the police, so it is expected that the holiday will pass Wwithout any sensations. e ro e ey RACING AT OAKLAND TRACK One of the Best Cards of the Season Offered Race- Goers.
