- M SITUATIONS WAHTED—Col“nueL ARMING OF THE CITY OF PEKING Part of the Mohican’s Battery Was Put on Her Yesterday. Rapid Promotion of Captain Thompson of the Ship Roanoke. Troubles and Dissensions Among the Crew of the Klondike Steamer Clevelana. The work of getting the Manila trans- ports ready 18 progressing rapidly. Car- penters are working night and day steamers Australia and City of Peking, and both of them will probav.y be ready | for sea to-morrow night. Yesterday the Unadilla came down from the navy yard and took away the Mohican's batte Four of the guns are for the Charleston’ fighting top and the others were taken to the Peking and will be mounted on her forward deck. Work on the Ohlo and City of Sydney is not being rushed as much as on the other two vessels, and 1t will probably be the latter part of the week before they get away. The Government finally decided not to take the Conemaugh and yesterday she left for Seattle to bring down a load of coal. The rise of Captain Thompson of the American ship Roanoke has been very rapld. He is only ars of age, and yet he commands one of the finest Amer- jcan merchantmen afloat. He is well known on this coast, having served as mate on the bark Andrew Welch and barkentine Archer in the Hawailan trade. From here Captain Thompson went to New York and was appointed second offi- cer of the Roanoke. When the ship reached Yokohama the first mate left her and Thompson was promoted. From Yo- kohama the Roznoke went to Honolulu and loader sugar for New York. When thirty days out on the homeward voyage Captain Hamilton died and Thompson was left the only navigator aboard. He made the boatswain take the first mate's watch and promoted one of the sailors to the position of second mate. This was working under difficulties, but in spite of it all Captain Thompson took his ship to New York in the smart time of 109 days. In view of the splendid showing he had made the owners of the vessel contirmed him in the command, and his many friends in San Francisco are still con- cratulating him upon his succes: B he brig Galiles arrived from Tahitl sterday with three passengers—Mrs. mbert, John White and J.

The barkentine Jane A. Falkinburg was | to have sailed for Kotzebue Sound yester- day, but owing to a falling barometer and other indications of a storm Captain Cook decided to remain in port until this morn- ing. The Falkinburg has on board the following passengers: C. D. Lane of the Utica mine and his son, Louis Lane; Hank Smith, the old _superintendent of | the Belcher mine; A. Blakeley, 4 mining | expert; L. Tamasini, S. . _Roberts, George Reeves, R. A. Reeves, N. Est, L. Larsen, L. ‘Hill, Clarence Maxson, Charles Maxson, G. H. Louis, O. J. An derson, P. F. Davis, J. W.

She is now having her ma- chinery put in and her deckhouses erect- ed, and as soon as these jobs are com- pleted a start will be made. She will be towed to Dutch Harbor by the Tillamook, and will then under her own steam tow four barges to St. Michael. At St. Michael she will meet the passenger steamer Mor- gan City from this port and will take her passengers to Dawson City. Another schooner with gold-hunters aboard arrived from Boston yesterday. It was the Julia E. Whalen, and she took 150 days to make the run. Her pas- sengers will fit out here and then the voy- age will be continued to St. Michael. The steamer Cleveland is once more in trouble and the chances are that an en- tire new crew will take her out. Captain Hall left her as soon as she docked after her arrival from Seattle yesterday, and almost everybody in the engineer's de- | partment will quit her to-day. The mate | and the purser are at loggerheads, and yesterday the erser had to hire a long- ghoreman to do some odds and ends about the ship as the mate would not let one of the hands do them for Very little has been heard of the old steamer since so many of her crew were drowned and she nearly became a total wreck, but it now appears that she is once more to_come before the public, and this time probably in the courts. WORK FOR THE MISSIONARY America’s Prospective Posses- sions in Need of the Bible. Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippine the Fields for Christian Labor. “Our Spanish Conquests—What Shall ‘We Do #ith Them?” was the subject of a prelude to the regular sermon at the Howard street Methodist Episcopal Church last night, delivered by Rev. John A. B. Wilson. In reference to the subject the pastor sald: ot No man lives more than twehty-five years | beyond his age. Even great Washington could not see a century in advance of his own period. The counsel left us in his farewell Bddress for a quarter and even for three- quarters of o century it may have been wis- dom to follow. But to live by that counsel Inuch longer must, as it has already done, clreumscribe and provincialize our develop- ments. The_ responsibility of a great nation is upon us. If we are to be a nation, then we ghould assume the responsibility that belongs fo & great nation In the civilizations of the world. self-reliance’ which the assumption of such a Place among the nations of the earth compels. In the providence of God the opportunity has come to our hand after a half century of humiliation at the hand of the barbarian na- tions. The voice of mercy has called us to stop the butchery of women and chiidren and fo drive the savage from the American con- tinent. There is to come by conquest unto us the last possessions of Spain in America and in the Bast. What shall we do with them? Their conquest -compels us to face & new line of re- eponsibility. Look at Spain and her just what the Latin civil ple undisturbed by any seeds of the re- pormation, 1 will not designate fts effects. Study the history for yourselves. Look at fipnin, Cuba and Porto Rico and the Philip- ‘as they are to-day, without anything that be called civilization, sunken in barbar- jam, the Sabbath a day for barbarous bull- fighting to train the people into deeper bar- barism. Are we to become responsible for such » iation one-seventh as great as our own? whall we do with them? We dare not to Bpall further de- R " tae ot Prventas o 80 dons and learn zation will do for a n may on the | -go of copra and cocoanuts. | him. | We need the maritime enterprise and | selves to repeat the annual story of anarchy, revolution and bloodshed witnessed in the Bouth and Central American republics and so retard the uplifting of the world. We must save these people from themselves as well as from Spain. To what European country save England, the civilizer of the world, could we commit ‘them? But dare we shift the re- sponsibility? By the Monroe doctrine we can- not give Cuba or Porto Rico to any Buropean nation nor should we the Philippines. If the God of nations commits to our custody, then we should accept the trust, enlarge the pur- view of dur nationality, take cur niace by the side of our mother country and ease the task of Christianizing and civilizing those who have 5o long been under degrading condi- tions. We ask not for the removal of the church that exists, but that the right of way be given to every other church under heaven to go with the open Bible in its hands, all allke recefving equal protection from _ the laws. Let us commit to England the work of Christianizing and clvilizing her own India and we will draw our forces and money from missionary work in that great empire and move in to those providential provinces until they have learned from an open Bible in every dialect the truth as it is in Jesus and acquire the ability for safe and equitable self-govern- ment. IN TH‘E’HANDBALL COURT. The French Chmpio; Walks Away With the Honors. Standing room was at a premfum in Phil Ryan’s San Francisco court at 858 | Howard street yesterday afternoon. The cause of this rush-to the place was be- cause Pierre Elizalde, the champion of Buenos Ayres, was booked against three of San Francisco’s best players. The | champion used the racket bat against the | hand of two of the others. Riordan also accepted the bat; but this made no differ- | ence in the game.

While there is no positive proof | that the little girl dled from poison, and wthille her family will not say that her death was the direct result of eatin strawberries grown on vines sprinkled | with paris green, the fact that they admit that this “might have been” the cause lends color to the belief that it was. | | The little girl was taken sick Thurs- | day morning with cramps in her stomach | and vomiting, Dr. Wilcox was called to attend the child, but in spite of his efforts | she died Friday morning, having been | | unconscious and in spasms all of the pre- | | ceding night. The doctor signed a death | | certificate giving the cause of death as | " | cholera morbus, and the body was buried at the Odd Fellows’ Cemetery yesterday afternoon. Dr. Wilcox said that the | | symptoms were those of cholera in- fantum, and inquired what the child had been eating. When told that she had eaten strawber: recently he ventured the assertion that they may have been the cause of her illness and death. Mrs. Hassett said _last evening that a young lady named Miss McClellan, who attended Sunday-school with the child, died this week with similar symptoms, and this death was also one of the “might have been strawberries” cases. e | The Mother Relation. | Rev, R. H. Moreland of St. Tuke's Church delivered an interesting octure | last evening on the subject of “mother- | hood. “The relation of mother to child is the most sacred of all,” he sald, “and is under the immediate protection of God. | There is a sanctity about this relation which knows no equal in the perfection of love, devotion and pure religlous spirit. | When God takes the mother away from the infant some concealed motive under- lies the act, it is to perfect the blessed- ness of both.” —_——————— Another Street for Dewey.

City Armories Present a Very Desolate and Deserted Appearance. It Is Probable There Will Not Be & Skirmish Shoot This Month. The Reorganization. Those members of the National Guard of California who were not included in | the call for California’s quota of volun- teers, and those who were rejected upon examination at muster, are wondering what will be done in the matter of re- organizing the guard. The First Regiment of Infantry Is still in existence, that is officlally, but it is without officer: There still remains a | portion of each company, for although they were not accepted by the United States army officers they are still mem- bers of the guard, because the fact that they were rejected did not act as a'dis- In fact no mem- ber of the First Regiment has been dis- charged from the service of the State, and a peculiar state of affairs exists at this time. Colonel James F. Smith and all the officers are still on the roster of the National Guard of the State, and at the same time he holds a commission as colonel of the First California Volunteers and other officers of the command also hold commissions in that organization. The law governing the guard In this State declares that no officer can be a member of two military organizations at the same and the condition of affairs at present has been the talk of the guards- men during the past week. They say that all the men who have enlisted in the vol- unteers will have to be discharged from the service of the State, on account of removal, when they shall have left for the Philippines, but then there will not be any colonel of the regiment to discharge théem, and the problem is who will dis- charge them? PICKING UP STRINGS. The superior officers of the guard are at this time “picking up strings,” as one of them said when asked what is to be done in the matter of rehabilitating the guard. During the week the adjutant- general was busy making arrangements with the United States officers about the | property turned over to the Government by the companies that were accepted in the volunteer service, and he was also arranging as to the responsibilities of the captains of the several companies that are under bonds for the safekeeping of State property. As soon as all the strings shall R:\ve been picked up it is probable that stens will be taken to reeruit the regiments from which the volunteers have been taken and place the guard on a_footing that will ~make it effective should there be a demand for the ser- in case of an invasion the Spanish, “for there is no telling,” of the guardsmen, ‘‘but that the Spaniards might send ships to this coast to harass the peopl THE NAV. IT MILITTA. A more disgusted s b; t of men than those who make up the Naval MiMtia at this port it would be difficult to find, except ft be those who belong_ to the Signal Corps and to Tron{: A. "Here,’ sald one of the men of the Marion, “we have been drilling and preparing for active service ever since there was talk of war, and now that we are ready and willing 'to go anywhere that our services may be nees- ed we are informed that we will not be required. It is discouraging, to say the least.” SERL REGIMENTAL ARMORY. The regimental armory of the First In- fantry at Page and Gough streets is very much deserted at this time. On the black- board is the last regimental order issued, No. 3, March 11, ordering the annual in- spection and muster. Alongside of this is the announcement that Captain Car- rington’s headquarters have been trans- ferred to the California Hotel, and under- neath is written, “This armory will be closed on Sunday. at 12 o'clock. By order | of Major Jansen.” The large assembly room in which were quartered for a time about 2000 men, while waliting to be moved to the city of tents at the Presidio, has a most desolate appearance. The gun racks are empty, and it lacks the life and bustle that was in the past observable when the men as- sembled there and were put through fours right and fours left. The several company rooms also have a deserted look. The regimental colors are missing and about the only things left are the pictures on the walls, the tables and desks and the full-dres uniforms and helmets in the lockers. Those few who are part of each of the eight companies of the First that were guartered there stroll into the armory by day and by night and have a chat with genial John Sheldon, the armorer, who remains at his post as in days of yore. ‘What will be done in the matter of re- cruiting the regiment and fllling the va- cancies that exist is something that not one at this time Is ready to answer. In the meantime the armory is in charge of Major Jansen, brigade inspector of the Second Brigade. THE OTHER ARMORIES. The Ellis-stret armory; in which were located Companies C, G, F and K and the Signal Corps of the Second Brigade, is now tenanted only by the signalmen and the few members of the four companies not accepted in the volunteer service. The memberg of the Signal Corps meet there regularly and have their drills, the members hoping that the War Depart- ment will yet order them to accompany the expedition to the Philippines. Many of the men are of the opinion that it is only a hope. The armory of Troop A, Cavalry, at the old regimental armory on Market street, near Tenth, is occupied by the members of the troop, who llfie the signalmen feel disappointed that they have not been called out. Still they are keeping up good spirits, and they too expect that there will be a call for additional men and lrhflt!they will have a chance to go to the ront. THE STATE SHOOT. The indications are that the State shoot set for this month will be passed on ac- count of the unsettled condition of af- fairs in the guard. As yet no orders for the shoot have been issued, and com- manding officers bave no idea when any will be issued. This is the month for skirmish firing, but it looks as if the targets will not be punctured. AGAINST AN ELEPHANT. Unique Tug—of-Wanin the Chutes Zoo. ‘With the elephant at one end of the rope and the available crowd at the other there was a most interesting tug- of-war at the Chutes yesterday. It was advertised that the big elephant would pull against 200 men, and pull he did, although the load he dragged after him was not sized up. “Now catch hold of the rope,” was the only order given, and the crowd was quick to respond. It was a small crowd, on account of the rain, and the rope was a long one, so there was room for nearly everybody. Bostick, the elephant’s manager, laid hold of the big brute’s ear and gave him the word. He started forward and the crowd on the rope followed slowly and reluctantly. Then, as every one yelled, the elephant stopped pulling and the crowd hauled him backward for twenty feet. Then he got hold again, and, grunt- “‘fi at every step, he gained foot by foot, while every man on the rope dug his e a draw, bu g:nnt had had & fair show i FALL OF RAIN WAS GENERAL San Joaquin Valley Fields Receive a Tardy Drenching. Downpour Too Late to Save Crops and Damage Is Reported. In Other Sections of the State the Precipitation Proves of Great Benefit. Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. FRESNO, May 15.—Rain fell here last night, beginning shortly after mid- night and continuing until dawn. The precipitation, according to the official report of the weather bureau, amount- ed t0 .52 of an inch. During the day in- termittent showers occurred and indi- cations are for more rain to-night. The downpour at this time was most unex- pected, and the general belief is that it will do much damage. Farmers had cut their wheat crops for hay. This has been ruined and alfalfa is also damaged. The effect on the ralsin crop | is not definitely known, but it is be- | lieved that the vines have suffered con- siderably. The first crop of raisins will be less than was expected, on account of the rain. Should frost follow the damage will be great. STOCKTON, May 15.—Eighty-eight- hundredths of an inch of rain fell in this part of the San Joaquin Vally be- tween sundown last evening and 9 o’clock this morning. It would have been a million-dollar rain had it come six weeks ago. The downpour was slow } and steady. It is believed that as it is now the rain will work positive injury especially where hay has been cut and lies in the fields. This was the heavi- est May storm on record for this sec- tion. TULARE, May 15.—Fifty-two-hun- dredths of an inch of rain fell here last night. It comes too late to save grain, but will do great good to aifalfa fields, will start the wild feed and assist| young trees and vines. Ditch water | was very scarce and orchards and vine- yards were suff ~ing. Summ.er crops of corn and sorghum will be greatly benefited. Tulare will have hay to ex- port, a full crop of grapes, a small crop of prunes and more than enough peach- es for home consumption. The indica- tions are that there will be more rain to-night. SANTA BARBARA, May 15.—The heaviest rain storm of the season visit- ed this place yesterday. Rain began falling in the afternoon, continuing all | night until daylight to-day. It was a steady, hedvy downpour. L'h> precipi- tation amounted to 125 inches. The rain will help the corn and bean crops materially. LOS OLIVOS, May 15—The heaviest rain of the season has been falling since yesterday afternoon at 5:30 o’clock. It comes to\ late to be of any benefit ex- cept to some fruits and a small acreage of summer Ccrops. LOS ANGELES, May 15.—Rain com- menced falling about midnight last night and continued until 10 o’clock to- day, 1.46 of an inch falling altogether. The rain is valuable in that it will fill the storage reservoirs, but it has dam- aged considerable hay, which the farm- ers were very late in cutting this year. The rain comes too late to help the fruit | crop. So heavy a rain at this time of year is exceptional here. It was gen- eral over Southern California. VENTURA, May 15.—Last night Ven- tura County was visited by a heavy rainfall—at Ventura, 1.50 inches; Ojal Valley, 2; Wheelers Ctanyon, 2.25; Santa Paula, 1.50; Oxnard, 1.25; Somis, 0.85. Great good to hay, beets and fruit will result. The weather is still unsettled and rain indications are excellent. SAN DIEGO, May 15.—Rain began falling here about 1 o'clock this after- rocn, and up to 5 o’clock the precipita- tion was .18 of an inch. In the country, however, the storm was much heavier. 7'he rain comes to late to be of benafit | to grain, but in some localities it will| help the late sown. THE RAIN BRINGS TONS OF GRAIN It Will Add a Third to the Crops of Califor- nia. Shippers Already Preparing to Reach for the Trade of the Philippines. Saturday’s and Sunday’s rain was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to the farmers of California. Many fields of wheat were saved from total destruction. Barley, however, benefited more than any of the other grains. The barley crop will in many sections be a fair one, and that dependent upon irrigation was saved just in time. The rain will afford a water supply sufficient to make a fair result. Before the rain the wheat crop of Cal- ifornia was placed at 250,000 tons and the barley crop at 100,000 tons. Well informed n dealers estimate the late precipita- ion_will add 100,000 tons of wheat and 150,000 tons of barley to the crops. Hay undoubtedly suffered considerably. The grain trade was surprised last week when it became known that 30,00 tons of wheat will be shipped immediately to Liverpool via rail to New Orleans, thence by water. The time in transit will be deereased from % to 100 days. The very high price for s wheat _in Liverpool mits of the rall rate to New Orleans, allowing a handsome profit to shippers. Allowing for rail and ocean rates, Call- fornia Wheat can be sold at $1% per cental. The price for May wheat on Saturday was $1 80; this allows a margin profit of 156 cents. The effect of shipping via New Orleans will rapidly absorb present stocks and will assure to farmers good prices for their growing crops. Already shippers are reachin the Phi lgeipme trade, which dence of "f a matter of great import- ance to the flour industry of the Pacific Coast. Every inch of rain for the next ten dngn will' add many thousand tons to the wheat and m"{. crops. Reports from all poirts over the State are of the most hopeful nature, and farmers are Jubilant. Unclaimed Articles. There were left unclaimed in the Cuban booth at the Masonic Festival an oak rocker, a set of carvers and a table mat and bell, all of which are awaiting claim- ants at the Masonic Temple. The lucky winners will find them there. —_——————— out for ves evi- GAME PLAYED [N THE MU Fresno’s Baseball Team Defeats the Men of Stockton. Thomas Holds 'the Visitors Down to a Total of Four Hits, Two Clever Put-Outs Placed to the Credit of Center-Fielder McCue. Special Dispatch to The Call. FRESNO, May 15.—It seemed for 2 time to-day that the game between Stockton and Fresno would not take place, as heavy rain fell during the night and continued at intervals dur- ing the afternoon. Fresno won by a one-sided score, although the Stocktons played a ~ood uphill game. Thomas for Fresno pitched a steady game, holding the visitors down to four hits, one a scratch. Earle, Moore and Held carried off the infleld honors. McCue and Ferguson put up great ball in the outfield, McCue mak- ing two of the prettiest putouts in cen- ter ever seen here. Whalen and Peters were at the points for Stockton. Whalen’s delivery was a trifle erratic. Billings, White and Selna did the playing for the visitors. On ac- count of the ‘hreatening weather the crowd did not begin to come until the fifth inning. Following is the score of the game: FRESNO. AB. R. BH. SB. FO. A. E. Earle, 2 b.
