'ORDERS EXPECTED TO RUSH REINFORCEMENTS TO MANILA ESSAGES by wire from the Orient convince' the military authorities here that all the troops assigned to Major Gen- eral Merritt should be fo warded to Manila as speedily as pos- sible.

CAMP BARRETT, Sather Tract, July | 30.—The first regimental inspection of men, arms and quarters was conducted by Colonel Henshaw this morning, and no battalion or recruit drill was held. In the afternoon interesting bayonet drill proved quite a feature. A patriotic concert was given by the regimental band this evening under Cap- tain Miller, chaplain of the regiment, in the big tent of the Army and Navy Chris- tian Commission. The Catholic Ladies’ Truth Soclety now has a tent within the lines where the sol- der boys are furnished good reading and plenty of writing materials. Religious services arc held in the Chris- tian Commission tent almost nightly now, 4nd to-morrow the soldiers will be per- mitted to attend church wherever they seé fit.

It will move some time this week, and will go_into camp between the First New York Regi- | men and the Wromipg Alger Light Bat- | tery. The former regiment moved a num- | ber of jts tonts yesterday at the order | of General Miller, which will glve the ansas regiment abunaance of room. The division and field hospitals were filled yesterday to their utmost capacity. but there were no deaths, although there are a number of men who are critically ill in the former. Colonel Wholley of the First Washing- ton Regiment and a number of his officers have been assigned quarters in the houses that were lately made vacant by the re- moval of the officers of the First Infant- ry, who were ordered East to participate in the Santiago campaign. e RESPECT FOR THE DEAD. Test of an Order Issued Relat- ing to the Burial of De- ceased Soldiers. On the field of battle, where thousands of wounded soldlers demand immediate attention, there is excuse for delay In giving burial to the fallen, but at a gar- | rison or camp remote from the scenes of | the dead. The fact that tne body of Pri-| vate Joseph Wheeler, late of the First| California, was moved from one place to another for four days before it was laid at rest in the National Cemetery is not creditable to the administration ef mili- tary affairs in this department. 1t is exptained at General Miller's head- quarters that the fault of the delay in the burial of the body of Private Wheeler lies | solely with the Marine Hospital, in that the officlals of that Institution failed to notify General Miller where the body was | to be found. | To preclude a possibility of further mis- takes the general has caused to be issued the following order: HEADQUARTERS _ INDIANA DIVISION, EIGHTH ARMY CORPS, CAMP MER- RITT, SAN FRANCISCO, July 30, 1898 Speclal Orders, No. 20.—To provide properly for the burtal of deceased soldiers of the regu- lar and volunteer forces of this command the following directions governing the matter will_be strictly complied with: 1 Immediately upon the death of a soldler, the surgeon In charge of the hospital where | the death occurred will make report thereof to | these headquarters, giving name of deceased, company and regiment to which he belonged, cause of death, whether single or married and | stating where the body Is placed awaiting bur- fal. Should a soldier die at a place other than a hospital under charse of medical officers, his regimental or detachment commander will, as soon as practicable, report all ob- tainable facts connected with his death, in addition to the information stated above. 2. The Adjutant General of the division, on receiving reports of a soldier's death, will notify the division quartermaster thereof, di- rect him to furnish the coffin, should one be | required, and provide the necessary transpor- | tation at the proper place and hour for con- | veying the body to the cemetery. He will, at the same time, notify the sol- dier's regimental or of the death, where the body Is to be found, | and the hour fixed for the funeral, whereupon, the commander so notified will order a detail, under charge of a non-commissioned officer, to report to the superintendent of the national cemetery to dig the grave. The non-commissioned officer will furnish the superintendent of the cemetery the name, rank, company and regiment of the deceased for the cemetery records. The escort will proceed to the place desig- | nated at the hour fixed for tho funeral. The | regimental or other chaplain will attend the funeral.

The officers and men of the two bat- talions were entertained at a luncheon by the ladies of the Relief Corps at the conclusion of the _exhibition. Colonel and Mrs. Kinne, Mrs. Comstock and Mrs. Staples had charge of the affalr, and to their efforts was due largely the suc- cess of the entertainment. A number of the members of the Veteran Guard, in uniform, acted as ushers. Through the courtesy of the Presidio and Ferries car line and the California-street car line, the soldfers of the two battalions were carried from their camp at the Presidio to the Pavilion and return free of charge. ——— NURSES ARE CAPABLE. Major Owen of the Division Hospital Contradicts a False Report. The yellow journal is at it again. This time Major Owen, the surgeon in charge of the Diviston Hospital at the Presidio, {s the object of one of the Examiner's jaundice lles. The yellow journal pub- lished yesterday a resolution passed by the Red Cross ladies of Oakland, deplor- ing the fact that all troops were not moved from Camp Merritt to the Pre- sidlo at once, and also a report brought | by Mrs. Marie MacDermot from Major Owen, in which that officer Is quoted as ving his nurses were incompetent, lazy and not taking an interest in their work, 2nd that in consequence the patients are Suffering because of the carelessness of rses. T Owen, when asked yesterday it this report was_true, replied: Tt is ab- solutely false. My nurses are competent and they are working faithfully and hard. The death rate is small when the many obstacles that 1 have had to overcome are faken into consideration. The nurses are satisfied with their positions and they are an intelligent lot of men who are earnest- Iy endeavoring to do their duty. My re- Jorted criticism of them in the Examiner s a lie cut from the whole cloth. i ANOTHER INVESTIGATION.

Board of Survey Ordered to Inspect Accouterments of the First Tennessee. It has been found necessary to call a Board of Survey to inspect the equipment of the First Tennessee Volunteers. A month’s use has developed the poor qual- ity of a number of the most necessary articles; the canteens are leaky and are covered with cotton Instead of canvas; the shoes {ssued to the men have proved worthless; the bayonet scabbards, a sec- ond-hand lot from Rock Island Arsenal, are splintered and bent. The cartridge boxes will also be Investigated. Instead of being equipped with the army belt with a capacity for 50 and 100 rounds, the regi- ment has been given the old style box, which holds but twenty rounds. Numer- ous other articles of the regimental equip- ment will be inspected with a view of thoroughly equipping the men before they are ordered aboard theit transport. The officers detalled for the board are Lieutenant Colonel Childers, Major Cheatham and Major Bayliss. i Novel Programme by Kan- sans. The Twentleth Kansas Regiment will give a most Interesting evening's enter- | tainment at Mechanics' Pavilion next Thursday evening, the 4th of August, for | tlan Commission work. They are prepar- Ing many fancy drills. The regimental band of the Twentieth Kansas is said to be one of the best in camp. In addition to the entertainment by the regiment the band will give the following programme: March, “Stars and Stripes Forever’ (Sousa); military fantasia, “The Twen- tieth Kansas, V., arranged by Chief Musician C. rmly and dedicated to Colonel Frederick Funston, commanding (descriptive of the battlefleld, charge of | the Rough Riders, whirl of battle, assem- bly of the victors and the fighting tune of the Twentieth Kansas); idy e Mill in the Forest,” (descriptive); Mazurka Russa, “‘La Czar- ina” (Gauna); overture, “I'Espair de I'Al- sace,” arranged by Clause; waltz, “‘Blue spangled Banner,” accompanied by the | band.

SMILEY DIES AFTER A LINGERING ILLNESS. For Ten Years He Was Closely Identified With Christian Res- cue Work in This City. Arthur G. Smiley, superintendent of the Boys' and Girls’ Afd Society, died yester- day afternoon at his home, 1007 Capp street, after a long and painful illness, which was undoubtedly the result of overwork. Mr. Smiley was only about 39 years old, but during his all too short life he has devoted all his energies to helping others. Thousands of Christian and char- itable people in this city will regret his death, and thousands of young men and women who have been torn from evil as- sociations and started on the pathway of virtue and industry will forever remem- ber his kindly and loving assistance. M.. Smiley was formerly registrar of the Board of Associated Charities. About five years ago he took charge of the Boys’ and Girls' Aid Society, which was then in a deplorable condition. His first act was to inaugurate a new system of govern- ment at the institdtion, and he substi- tuted kind words and Christian love for the harsh measures then in vogue., He abolished the ‘“sweat box,” which was one of the features of the home, and every Sunday morning he threw the doors open and told the children to go to their homes for the day amd return at night. During the five years Mr. Smiley was in charge only twenty-flve boys took advan- e of their liberty and failed to return when their furloughs expired. An air of sorrow pervaded the home last evenlng. The matron and teachers, who have been associated with the de- ceased for many years, could not restrain their tears when speaking of him and his kindly, generous heart. He was a_son of the late Rev. G. W. and Sarah N. Cooper Smiley of Lexing- ton, Ky., and came here about ten years ago, since which time he has been closely connected with local charitable and re- form organizations. children, three girls arranged by Merrielles | Danube” (Strausg); march, “The Old | Veteran” (Bernard).
