THE END OF CAMP MERRITT NOT FAR OFF On Monday the Trans- . port Arizona Sails. ‘SCANDIA GOES ON THURSDAY | ARMISTICE NOT TO STOP PHIL-; IPPINE OPERATIONS. Three More Large Transports wm' About Make a Clean-Up of the Troops Assigned to Major General Merritt. It is not believed in local military circles that the signing of the peace protocol and the declaration of an ar- mistice will interfere with the forward- ing of the balance of the Philippine ex- peditionary forces, which no doubt will be needed to protect life and property at Manila during the interim, and until the Philippine question is definitely settled by the peace commission. Tele- graphic orders were received four da: ago to rush all the troops to Manila as fast as possible. It is evident that this was done with the full knowledge that peace was to be at once declared, but nevertheless the necessity a large force of troops at Manila was recog- nized. Orders of revocation are, there- fore, ndt expected by Major General Merriam. The troops that are to sail for Manila on the transport Arizona will embark | to-morrow afternoon, an order having | been issued at General Miller's head- | quarters at Camp Merritt to that effect | yesterday afternoc ccordance with instructions received from Major Ge ral Merriam. This order designates | the remaining battalion of the Eight- | eenth United States Infantry, the re-| mainins battalion of the Twenty-third United States Infantry, and recruit de- tachments of the First Colorado, the Tenth Pennsylvania, and 120 recruits of | the Second Oregon, all of whom are or- | dered to be on board the Arizons not later than 3 o’clock to-morrow fter- | noon.

The Twenty-third Infantry Battalion, with the Colorado recruits, will be un- | der command of Major Goodale; and | the Pennsvivania recruits will be co manded by Lieutenant Colonel nett. Brigadier General King and staff and | a number of commr s, ¢ = ters and surgeons will also sail on the Arizona. | With the departure of these troops there will be left at Camp Merritt the | th_California. recruits of the d Oregon and w others, all of r- | whom will sail on the Scandia on or about next Thursday. The remaining Oregon ruits are attached to the Seventh California. The ing of the Scandia will wind up Camp Merritt. The Arizona will pull out into the stream at 9 o’clock to-morrow evening, | as owing to her great depth she is obliged to take advantage of the high | tide ot that hour. The mail wiil go on hoard at 9 o'clock Monday morning and the steamer will sail before noon. Three more large transports, such as the Australia, City of Sydney and the City of Peking, which are expected in the next few days, will nearly all of the remaining expedition- ary forces. Adjutant General Corbin yesterday afternoon telegraphed Major General | Merriam as follows: ~‘Protocol has been signed. Hostilities are at an end.” As no orders were received regarding | the Philippine forces, General Merriam | will proceed to forward the troops in | accordance with recent instructions. e EVENTS AT THE PRESIDIO.

Acting in compliance with instructions from the War Department, regarding the sending of troops to Alaska for the pur- pose of preserving peace upon the banks of the Yukon, General Merriam has se- | lected Battery A, Third United States Ar- | tillery, for that duty. “The order relieving | the battery from further duty at the Pre- sidio was issued yesterday, and it is ex- Pocmd that it will sail for St. Michael | nside of ten days on some steamer yet | 1o be secured.

Several Non - Commissioned Officers Reduced to the Ranks for Complaining of Food. A bulletin was posted yesterday on the board in street of Company I. First Tennessee Regiment, at the Presidio, that is causing consideravle quiet indignation among the men of that company. It is an order of Cantain Givens re.ucing several non-commissioned office rank; They are Sergeants Hug and Dougla and Corporals George, Eddings and Mar- tin. A few days ago the men of this com- pany complained that they were not be- ing allowed sufficient food, but no atten- was paid to the matter. A petition for better and more food was signed by 74 men of the company, but still the food s not improved either in quantity or For having taken part in th S0 it is claimed. w1e non-comm sioned officers ove mentioned were bul- 1 and they are now plain, ordinary, privates. of Sergeant wouglas efiicient man, who has served in ih ar army, a petition siTned by ing that he be retained in his positio was presented to Captain Given who turned it down and informe.. Douglas, in answer to a question, that he had been reduced to the ranks on account of in- competency. Douglas indignantly resen this imputation, claiming to be qualifie in every respect to perform the duties of sergeant. He and the other displaced of- ficers declare that their degradation is due to the fact that they protested against the food dealt out to them, and furtnermore, they can’t understand wh they should be punished for exercising the constitutional right of petition. Cap- tain ens, it is alleged serted that they had no right to complain to him. gl O i TIRED OF INACTIVITY. Washington Volunteers Peti- tion to Be Sent to Manila or to Be Mustered Out. The members of the First and Third Infantry, stationed at the Presidio, and the Second Battalion of the same regi- ment, stationed at Angel Island, have unanimously signew a petition which will be forwarded to the Secretary of War, asking either to be sent to Manlla or to be mustered out of the service. A com- munication from a member of the Tegi- ment says “We have had three months’ experi- ence in cutting lawns, repairing roads, painting buildings, cleaning omcers’ quar- ters and other similar work. and we are beginning to grow wear: ‘We now have our full regiment here and are ready for business at the front. We ask the mili- tary authorities in all fairness to give us a chence.” e Regimental Baseball. The crack baseball teams of the Sev- enth and Eighth California regiments will cross bats at the Golden Gate Park Recreation Grounds on Sunday afternoon. The game will be called at 2 o'clock. There is considerable rivalry between the two regiments, and each is expected to have a battalion or two of ‘rooters’ at the park to relieve themselves of some of their surplus lung energy.
