He found in the ranks men who had graduated from medical colleges, or who had practical experience as druggists and also well drilled in sani- tary work as members of the National Guard organizations. The major said that he had just re- | celved his ~ppointment from Washing- | ton and was unable to as yet say what he would do in accepting assistance from the Red Cross Society. vised that the Red Cross people do not expend any money until he could con- fer with them as there was a danger of | duplicating things that the War De- | partment had already ordered.

Three Men Kilied and One Dled of Natural Causes During the Roancke'’s Voyage. The naval suthorities are taking no chances with anything that will be put aboard the City of Pekmg. The big steamer came down from Hunters Point dry dock Thursday afternoon, and yester- | day, before the work of putting stores on her was begun, a guard of eighteen men was sent to her from the Monterey. Six | of Uncle Sam’s sailors were put in the lighters alongside the big liner loaded with coal, six were placed on the dock to keep watch on all who went aboard and six were stationed in the hold in- specting every bucket of coal as it was dumped. The men keep an eight-hour | watch and then go back to the Monterey. | They do not like the job and would much rather be fighting the Spanish than get- | ting as dirty as blackamoors with coal | dust instead of with powder smoke. | Whether they like it or not, however, | does not make any difference, as they | will have to keep watch on the Peking | until'the vessel is ready to sail. | The Peking will carry as many troops | as she has accommodations for. No extra berths will be provided and the vessel | will get away the early part of the week. The City of Sydney will have extra ac-| commodations put in the 'tween decks | and steerage and the Australia has al-| most been fitted out in that manner. The | latter vessel will come down from the Union Iron Works to-day and when docked at the Oceanic dock she will be practically ready to take aboard the troops and supplies. If any precautions | are taken regarding the loading of the | Australia, City of Sydney, Ohio and Con- | emaugh, the guards wiil' be soldiers, as these vessels have been chartered by | the army authorities, while the Peking is under charter of the Secretary of the Navy. The authorities are in lopes of getting all five vessels away within the next week or ten days. The sallors on the Monterey are discon- solate. Big brown Jumbo, the ship’s| mascot, has deserted.

They Will Maintain the Home at Thermalito—Members of the Order May Go to War. At the morning session of the G rand Lodge of Odd Fellows yesterday, Past | Grand Louderback was given a vote of thanks for his digest of Grand Lodge | laws. D.

The charter of Ontarlo Lodgs, which had been revoked for Insubordination, was restored upon the presentation of satis- factory explanations. A long discussion was had during the afternoon on the subject of the home at Thermalito, and the grand master was authorized to appoint & committee of fiv which during the coming year shall tho oughly examine into the manner of con- ducting the home and its cost and make a report at the next Grand Lodge session. It was decided to sustain the home and provide for its maintenance. V. A. Bruton, representative from Grass Valley, was taken ill during the session, and was removed to St. LuMe's Hospital. In the evening there was a session to adopt the several reports presented. e e FREE DAY AT HOPKINS. Rain and Murky Weather Keep the Picture Lovers Away. Yesterday was free day at the Hopkins Art Institute. Contrary to custom and on account of the portrait exhibit, the second Friday of the month instead of the first, was given over to the general pub- lic. But few, however, took advantage of the privilege, the soft May rain and general murky weather contributing, no doubt, to keep the picture-loving public away. The striking posters of the portrait ex- hibit, which are still in place, were great- ly admired, though much regret was ex- pressed that the general public were not privileged to enjoy the ellegan( collection of portraits and rare old china of last week. —_—————————— Acquitted of Forgery.

Congress Should Investigate the Cause of the Large An- nual Deficiency. Advertising Periodicals Take Ad- vantage of the Second Class Privileges. The postal authoritles of this city do not take kindly to the proposition recent- ly made in Washington that the number of dally mall deliveries In the large busi- ness centers of the United States should be cut down in order to reduce the alarm- ing deficiency in the Postoffice Depart- ment, which has existed for many years. There are five mail deliveries per day in San Francisco in the business districts, and should this number be cut down to four much hardship and inconvenience will be inflicted upon the business com- munity. Daniel S. Richardson, secretary for the postoffice in this city, said yes- terday that San Francisco merchants had become so much accustomed to the of even one of them would cause them much inconvenience and would injurious- tire community. Iy due to the abuse Of the malil privilege. second class publications. The class of literature Among, of anu in no case the higher. the mass are a large number marily designed for advertising and free olrculation in hotels and on railway trains, and a class of publications repre- senting certain trades and industries. For instance, a srn(‘rr_\ firm will issue a cat- alogue of prices and add something to it to meke it just come within the require- ments of second class matter, thus oblig- ing the Government to distribute its ad- vertising. If these catalogues were obliged to pay third class rates the firm would pay eight cents a pound instead of one cent a pound, which is the second class rate. “In addition to the abuses of the sec- ond-class privilege my impression is,” continued ~Mr. Richards “‘that the rates paid by the Government are | too bigh for the transportation of | mail matter in proportion to the rates of | freight charged by | panies for other freight and requiring similar care. If the second-class privi- lege were restricted to legitimate newspa- | pers and periodicals the deficiency would | be speedily wiped out. The privilege should be restricted and the rates paid for transportation should be reduced.” Mr. Richardson showed some interest- | ing statistics bearing on the matter. Dur- | ing 1896 there was a revenne to the Gov- | ernment of $60,624.464 on 65,337,343 pounds of first-class matter. The ing the same year on 348,988,648 pounds of matter was $2,966,403. on 78,701,148 pounds third-class matter was $10,324,069, the revenue from 19,950,187 "pounds of fourth-class matter or merchandise was $3,120,821. From the years 1887 to 196, in- | clusive, the total cost of transportation of second-class matter amounting to 2,097,- | 640,300 pounds was $167,511,224, while the re- ceipts to the Government to pay for the game were only $20,976,403, leaving a de- ficlency of $146,834,821. It should be borne in mind that this deficiency is for the tra‘nsporlnuon of second-class matter only. Mr. Richardson called attention to an- other important factor in the case, and | second-class The revenue was getting all the long-haul matter and the express companies are getting the advantage of all the concentrations of weight and short-haul matter. a radius of 500 miles the express com- anies are carrying second-class matter or a fraction under a cent per pound. Mr. Richardson added that the business community were under a debt of grati- | tude to The Call for the stand it has ta- | ken tn this matter of reforming the abuse which s responsible for the great defi- | clency. The editorial in yesterday morn. | ing’s 1ssue of The Call was timely and to | the point. A congressional investigation should be had by all means. The Stanford Estate. Mrs. Jane L. Stanford, executrix of the will of her husband, the late Senator Le- land Stanford, filed a petition in the Pro- bate Court yesterday asking that 12,363 shares of the capital stock of the Market Street Railway Company, held by her husband at the time of his death, be de- livered to her.
