THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, MAY 16, 1898. ANXIOUS T0 NOVE 4 Regulars and Volunteers Awaiting Definite Orders From Washington. Little Likelihood of the Advance Guard Getting Away Inside of a Week—Soldiers Get a Soaking. According to latest dispatches from ‘Washington the beforementioned troops will comprise the expedition to the Philippines. Four thousand of these officers and men are now in this city and more will arrive daily until by the end of the present week it is ex- ON THE PHILIPPINES merely Intended to hurry up the equip- ment of his men and were not intended to be carried out to the letter. Such a thing would be impossible. The ship could not by any possibility get all her stores on board in time, even if the — begin to-morrow, and with the knowl- edge of just what troops are assigned to the expedition, as here given, it will proceed rapidly; but the outfitting wil be much slower. Then there are the transports. A board of army officers inspected the vessels under charter, Saturday, and found that every one of them will re- quire more or less alteration to fit them for the purpose. The vessels that have been used on the Central American run will require considerable overhauling, and even the Peking, which the depart- ment thought could get away to-night, must be arranged for the large number of men she is to carry. The soldlers, it must be remembered, will be on board ship nearly, if not quite a month, and they cannot be herded between decks %s they might be for a trip across the ay. No orders of any description have been received by the regular officers, and it is rezarded as certain that, part of the regular troops will get out on the first ship. The Fourteenth Infantry, Fourth Cavalry and Third Artillery are all recruiting up to their maximum, and their officers regard it as highly improbable that they will be ordered away before their ranks are filled. In addition to the battalion of the Four- teenth now here, it is the expectation that four more companies will be re- cruited before any move is made, though no orders have yet been receiv- ed to this effect. While nominally a ten company regiment, two companies are ‘“skeletons,” that is there are no men in them, and the officers are on de- tached service. These must be entirely recruited as well as the two new com- panies provided for in the reorganiza- tion law giving twelve companies to each regin. nt. One of the officers at the Presidio troops were in readiness for the jour- l THE WEB-FOOT BOYS SEEMED HAV EN APPRECIATED BY THE VISITORS + -+ - SUITS WERE ¥ NOTMADE OF NON- SHRINK- ABLE GQOD ; pected the last of the forces will be mobilized on the Presidio reservation. But when will they begin their long voyage across the Pacific? That is a question officers and men, regulars and volunteers, are eagerly asking, with no- body able to give them a satisfactory reply. It is certain that Colonel Smith of the First California received orders from ‘Washington, Saturday, to have his regi- ment in readiness to sail on the City of Peking to-day, but these orders were MAJOR W=W.

The sol- diers, however, did not seem to care particularly for sympathy. They flirted with the girls and cast contemptuous glances at their male escorts, but-not one of them uttered a word of com- plaint. The First and part of the Seventh California and the Oregon Battalion are located on low ground, that was goon cut up by the trampling feet into a veritable quagmire. An abundance of straw was provided for the tents, but this soon became saturated and last night the boys had anything but com- fortable beds. The Sixth California and the Fourteenth are camped on higher - ground, and consequently es- caped in a measure, but none of them had anything to boast of in the way of dry and cleanly quarters. Yesterday morning Lieutenant E. B. Babbitt, U. 8. A, of the ordnance de- partment, turned over to Colonel Smith for the First Regiment 980 Springfield rifles of the 188¢ model and 400,000 rounds of ammunition. The matter of locating incoming troops at the Presidio is receiving no little attention at the hands of the army officers. There are about 8000 sol- | diers yet to be mobilized upon the res- ervation. Lieutenant Neall said yes- terday that the troops yet to arrive would be put in camp upon the slope south of the Union car line. The Spring Valley Water Company will lay pipes so that the soldiers may be plen- tifully supplied with water. Only the two battalions of Oregon troops yet to come can be placed upon the cavalry | parade ground, where the troops are now encamped; that is, provided the | First and Fourteenth are not ordered to | leave before the others arrive. The re- | maining portion of the parade ground | is necessary for drill purposes. When the Washington regiment goes into | camp it will be on the slope south of | the First California. Lieutenant Charles H. Martin joined | the Fourteenth Infantry yesterday and | relieved Lieutenant Krauthoff, who has | been acting quartermaster and com- missary during his absence. Major Robe has relieved Colonel Morris of the | sentry duty done by the Presidio sol- | dlers on post N car line stops. He has placed his own men on duty upon this post.

They must be | provided with a complete outfit, neces- sary for the tropical country they are going to, from underclothing. socks and shoes, to suitable uniforms. Most of the men are destitute of such clothing as 1s absolutely necessary for such a campaign as lies before them, and even the regulars, who are commonly sup- | posed to be fully equipped foranyemer- gency, are poorly prepared for a so- journ on the Asiatic coast. It requires time to supply all these articles for so many men, and more- over, it will be necessary to mobilize | the troops into something more than | mere regimental and battalion forma- | tions before they can be dispatched to | face the enemy. That, also, requires time, and as yet there is nobody here to undertake this highly important task. General Merriam , the department commander, will arrive from Van. expedition, is expected to arrive from ADVERTISEMENTS.

W. W. McCAMMON, A.AG. & Among the number of army officers whose names were sent in for promo- tion by the President last week there was one who deserves more than pass- ing notice. Line officers in every regiment in the service were selected for advance- ment in rank and appointment to staff positions, and the battallon of the Fourteenth Infantry in camp on the Presidio plain has thus contributed one of its best loved and most efficient members. Captain Willlam W. Mec- Cammon of Company D, the second ranking officer of the battalion, reluctantly consented yesterday to speak of his past services, that won for him the thanks of Congress and have now gained for him the appointment of major and assistant adjutant general. He has not recelved official no- tice of his appointment yet, consequently he is still serving with his regi- ment, and yesterday was officer of the day. Seated in his tent he related incidents of his five years' service during and after the close of the rebel- lion, and his thirty years' campaign on the plains since then. A resident of St. Louis on the breaking out of the war, Major McCam- mon was one of the first to offer his services to his country from that State. Many of his classmates and associates belleved in the doctrine of States’ rights and cast their fortunes with the South, but a letter from his father, in which he said, “Stand by the stars and stripes, boy!” quickly determined young McCammon. For a time he was with the bushwhackers, but soon recelved the appoint- ment of first lleutenant in the Twenty-second Missourl Infantry, his bat- talion afterward being transferred to the Twenty-fourth Regiment. BShar- ing the fortunes of the Western army, Lieutenant McCammon saw plenty of hot service at Island No. 10, New Madrid, and at Corinth. Meantime he had been appointed captain and provost marshal of the Third Division, Seventeenth Army Corps, and it was for his action at Corinth in voluntarily abandoning his comparatively safe position to take command of a body of troops, which he led into the thickest of the fight, that Con- gress presented him with a medal of honor “for most distinguished gal- lantry in action,” on October 8 and 4, 1862. At Oxford, Miss., Memphis, Vicksburg, Raymond, Jackson and Mission- ary Ridge Captain McCammon was in constant and perilous service, and was made assistant adjutant general in the Fifteenth Army Corps, Wwith the brevet rank of major. In this capacity he served through the Atlanta cam- paign, the march to the sea, at Savannah and on up to the Potomac, par- ticipating in the final battle of the war. 2 After the grand review at Washington Major McCammon was appointed adjutant general of the artillery brigade of the Fifteenth Army Corps, re- maining at Washington for some time. He was one of the eye-witnesses of the assassination of rresident Lincoln and was about the first man to reach the stage in pursuit of Booth. From Washington Major McCammon was transferred to St. Louls, where he assisted in massing troops for the Maximilian campaign, In Feb- ruarv 1866, Major McLammon was honorably mustered out of the service and remained in St. Louis for a year, during which time he engaged in jour- nalism, being connected with the Republic. But though he thought he had laid aside his sword for all time, it was not to be. In 1867, without solicita- tion, Major McCammon was appointed a second, lieutenant In the regular service and assigned to the Fourteenth Infantry. His regiment was then on this coast, and he immediately started for San Francisco by way of the isthmus. From that time to the present he has been in constant service on the frontier and in the Northwest. No man in the army has been more actively en d in suppressin; e tile Indians than Major McCammon, his camputnz‘g;tsndlnswthrou:h h::. most every State and Territory west of the Missouri. Personally no more popular man can be found in the army, and the pleasure of the officers and men of his regiment at his well deserved promotion s tinctured with keen regret that his new duties will sever his connection with the old Fourteenth. Major McCammon is an old and warm friend of General Otis, and he hopes' that the general will appoint him to his staff for the Manila campaign. The major came here with the expectation of participating in that expedition, and his one fear is that unless he goes with General Otis or General Mer- ritt he will not see much active service during the war.

He Lectures Before a Large and En- thusiastic Audience at St Theresa's Church, Father Yorke, in a lecture delivered last evening before the parishioners of St. Theresa's Church, attempted to draw a parallel and a well-defined comparison between the Catholic and Protestant countries and the influence of religion on political history. He began with an ex- haustive discussion of religion generally as allied to government and then broad- ened into a disquisition of the present political crisis between the United States and Spain. ‘the attitude of Pope Leo in endeavor- ing to induce the latter country to ac- cede to the demands of the Americans by bringing about a settlement of the d?fficully without resorting to the hor- rors of war as the only possible solution fully explained, and the speaker de- ed it to be directly opposite to the njon generally held, if not expressed, that his Holiness was leaguing himself with the Spaniards against this country. “Pope Leo,” said the lecturer, “when he proffered his counsel and advice, had no motive of creating an alliance with Spain and against America. He foresaw the dire effects of war and simply tempted to s hostilities toward peace and amicable settlement. ““The bigots who claim that he is now using his influence on the Spanish nation | in order to spur them on to battle by blessing the troops and influencing the Queen Regent are liars who ill deserve the name of men. s long as war was brew- and so_long as it continued only a erve the current of open | JUMPED TO ESCAPE ARREST Annie Meyer Made a Desperate Effort to Elude the Police. As a Domestic She Robbed Her Em- ployers and Pawned the Stolen Property. A young woman giving her name as Annie Meyers was arrested last night by Detective Anthony and Policeman T. P. Reardon after an exciting chase and | locked up in the City Prison on a charge of grand larceny. Several weeks ago the woman hired out as a servant with the family of A. Max, at 416 McAllister street. During the temporary absence of the fam- ily she stole about §400 worth of jewelry belonging to Mrs. Max and disposed of it | to a Third street pawn broker. She then | left the house, after breaking the rear window, so as to lead Mrs. Max to be- | lieve that burglars had broken into the | house and carried off her jewelry. Anthony and Reardon learned that she was living in a house at Fifth and | Clementina streets, and last night they proceeded to arrest her, As they entered the house the woman was walking down ‘s‘talrsllnlendlnF to buy a loaf of bread. Latchmg a glimpse of the officers, she darted back into the house, followed by them. She ran to the rear porch, and in her desperate attempt to escape arrest | she iumfed to the ground below, a dis- tance of about thirty feet. She then scaled a high board fence and entered a barber shop adjoining. Reardon followed her, hiding in a closet in the rear of the shop. How the desperate woman escaped being. injured by the jump puzzled the officers. "They say that after she struck the ground she uttered a plercing shriek and then fell over as if severely hurt. The Meyers woman is well known to the ‘pollc& They 54{ she is a confirmed thief, and that she has on several occa- sions been arrested for stealing from her employers. ————— The Game Postponed.
