C. ; actir ant quartermaster, commissary ar ng ordnance officer, these officers having been designated for the work by the War Department. The first thing to be done will be to issue an order to the commanding offi- cers of the two regiments Instructing them to have prepared a complete list of all officers, and report to the quartermas The ve ay, 1 d acti ter general, commissary general of sub- sistence, surgeon general, chief of engi- neers, chief of ordnance and chief signal officer, a list of thgse officers who are, or who at any time have been, respon- sible for public property.

GRATEFUL TENNESSEEANS Present a Beautiful Souvenir to Mrs. French, ‘“the Angel of the Camp.” The members of Company B, First Ten- ee Volunteers, have performed a very | graceful act in publicly and tangibly ex- | pressing their gratitude to Mrs. Frank J. French for her many kind s to them during their campaign here. They have presented her with a beautiful gold medal in the shave of a broad Maltese cross, having in the center an engraving of the of Tennessee, and the let- S. 1.

The The medal w presentation speech was made by Coun- tess Loveau “-avanne, who referred to Mrs. ench as the angel of the camp fiel Mrs. French, in acknowledg- ing the gift of the beautiful souvenir, sald that “God had taken one of her boys and had given her a hundred others.” ity RETURNED TO DUTY. Private Anderson Acquitted of Complicity in the Attack on Dan Thomas In the case of Private Charles B. An- derson, Company L, First Tennessee Reg- fment, recently tried by court-martial for being implicated in the attack upon Dan Thomas, the court found from the ev dence that the soldler. was not gullty of | the charge ot conduct prejudicial to good order and military discipline. He was yesterday released from the guardhouse and returned to his company for duty. It was predicted in The Call some time ago that the evidence against the sol- diers was not strong enough (o convict | them, and from the finding of the coart it would appear that it was Thomas who was at fault. The cases against Privates Scruggs, Davis and Clarke bave not yet been completed by the court. e s e Feeling Among the Iowans. Colonel Loper of the Fifty-first Towa declares that his men are contented in the service and that they are willing to | remain until General Merriam gets back and It is settled whether they are to go | to Honolulu, If the regiment Is not to be sent away the colonel says that he is ag anxious as any of his men to return home. The general desire among the men 1s to be mustered out. des i AT Two Deaths Yesterday. Private Jacob Ebert, Company A, Twenty-third Infantry, and Private | Obver F. Mock., Company D, Fifty-first | Iowa, died yesterday at the division hos- | pital, the former of typhoid fever and the | atter of spinal meningiti EUROPEAN ARMIES TO DISARM. The Rev. Cryor in a Stirring Sermon Last Night Stated His Views on the Present European Crisis. The Rev. S. 8. Cryor, pastor of the Westminster Pesbyterian Church, de- livered a stirring sermon last evening to a large congregation, taking for the toplc of his discourse the proposed disarma- ment of Europe as has been outlined by the Czar of Russia. “Russla’s proposal to disarm the stand- ing armies of Europe,” he sald, ‘‘has filled the whole world with astonishment. The Russians have always been looked upon as an aggressive force; Shey have always shown a great amount of diplo- macy, reaching out for new territory. 1 still consider Russia the most dangerous power in Burope. I believe the Czar way sincere in his proposal, but I can under- stand why he reasoned himself into the grnblem. America before the late war ad only a standing army of 25,000 men but when the President placed over 125,000 men in the field a few days after war was declared the Czar recognized how useless and extravagant a (hin it was to keep a standing army. This late war also proved that a volunteer army is superior to a regular army and that merchants, clerks and mechanics that are educated and clever are far superjor and will defeat the average regular sol- dler in battle. I do not think that the Czar’s suggestion will be acted upon for a long time, because God overrules and ordains everything, and I do not believe that the European armies will be dis- banded until the Turks are driven out of what we may call the gateway of Europe and a righteous war pitched against them, o 1 Rev.

He speaks to the heart, and differ from his creed &s we may, we yet must love him. He has the power possessed by fow living preachers—to bring Christ's gospel hopefully, helpfully into the lives of his auditors and make it a living, vital part of their existence. Father McCorry will tour the coast on missionary work in the absence in cne of the regiments of United States volunteers at Manila. His initlal appearance in this city was made at St. Mary's Church (Paulist) yester- “hri. fore he left the pulpit many were moved to tears, and those incapable of tions to the young priest immediately after mass.

DONLAN FORCED TO EASE UP SAN FRANCISCO WITH A RUSH EASILY WINS OUT. ‘Watsonville in Urgent Need of Out- fielders Before It Can Hope to Make Much of an Im- pression. For seven innings yesterday the league infants played tne finest kind of cham- pilonship ball. Then Donlan let down in his pitching, the in and out flelders sud- denly became hypnotized and San Fran- cisco was handed up a game {t was no more entitled to than frosty-footed Witt- man is to levy on his subordinates for his parade plumage. Watsonville needs some outflelders. Tt can never hope to cut any flgure in base- ball circles until it replaces its present cholce statuary with some real ball- players who can see the sphere when it gets out in their territory and can con- nect with it at the plate. Peters labored under a great disadvantage all day. His right hand was badly injured in Satur- day’s game, but he went in again yester- day and recelved Donlan’s delivery, with the result that his record looks bad, much worse than it really was, in fact. Donlan had the speed of a jackrabbit and was fully as wild, so it is small wonder that Peters had an uncomfortable time of it trying to hold wild pitches and rapid-fire shells with his sore wing. Donlan, with a judiclous application of cold compresses to his head to reduce the enlargegment and more experience in the box, will become a good pitcher. But he must gain better control of the ball and realize that there are a few points in the game he has not vet mastered. Up to the unhappy eighth yesterday he Kkept Bunker’s pygmies down to three scattered hits, but then he went to pieces and a terrific cannonading ensued. Three clean hits were all that were obtained during the inning in question, but there was much hard swatting, which, with the statuesque outfielders behind him, netted runs and won the game for the locals. The work of Monahan of thelhume team as a Kansas volunteer, but B wachiow to o better and pencrally does, so he may be charged with merely suffering from an “off day.” WIith that exception and thelr inability to make Schedulo time with the bail, the San Franciscos put up a pretty game, {\f\!y trimmed with a trio of clever plays. atsonville got down to business right at the start. ranks opened up with a single and completed the circuit on Held's double to leftfield fence. It was not until the fourth that the locals broke the ice, ase- ouble in the sixth, when McCarthy laced out a double and scored on Albright's single, while the locals strugeled along until the eighth, piling uéa rings inste; of runs. But when they did begin they took more than they needed. Smith was safe on a missed third strike and H. King followed with a dinky infleld hit. Murphy’ long single to right scored both runners, the batsman going to second on the throw home and third on a passed ball. Mona- han hit to McCarthy and Murphy tallied on the overthrow to the plate. Ham- mond sent another down to McCarthy and kept on to second on the latter's high throw to first. After K. King had fanned, Stroecker drove a single over short, scor- ing Monahan and Hammond. The b: *tc. stole second, but was caught in trying for third.. Croll was given his base and came home on Shea’s double to right. Smith ended the trouble by striking out, leaving the score as follows: SAN FRANCISCO. AB. R. BH. SB. PO, A. E. Smith, 2 b AT 00 e o H.

REFUSED TO LEAV: HIS DEAD MASTER HALL DIES AND HIS DOG GUARDS THE BODY. DR. The Faithful Animal Ley on the Dead Man’s Breast and Would Not Leave His Post. Dr. Samuel Hastings Hall, who was but recently on trial in the courts of the city, died suddenly on Saturday while at the house of a friend, and after his death a dog, of which he had thought a great deal, took up his position on the breast of the dead man and refused to leave the body of his master. The doctor went early in the evening to the house of Louis Doerr, at 1712 Baker street, where he had been invited to din- ner. After the meal he complained of pains in the region of_ the heart, and when they grew worse Dr. Laidlaw was summoned, but was unable to save Ehe bhysician’s life. Dr. Hall had suffered }rum heart trouble for some time, and when first attacked last night seemed to know that he would not live. During the short time preceding the at- tack and the death of the doctor, the dog, a bull terrier, whioh had been the constant companion of the physician, realized that all was not well with his master and whined until allowed to take a place near the sick man. When, the doctor had passed away the falthful ani- mal took up a position across the bod and for a time refused to allow the friends Mages, s.

One world's record was broken and an aquatic feat, similar to that performed by Swimmer Hanlon some years ago, which resulted in his death, was success- fully accomplished at Sutro’s Baths yes- terday. In the underwater swimming contest Fred McDermid swam 8 yards, a distance many feet farther than the record established in the Bast some time ago. The crowd applauded the feat, and the record breaker was awarded the medal. Dan Green made a complete triple turn from a swinging trapeze some thirty feet abowe the water and completed a beautiful dive. Hanlon, the noted swimmer, attempted the same feat, but struck the water sideways and recelved injuries that resulted fatally. n the 60-vard dash James Cartwright was declared winner, J. Walters second. F. Burnett won the spring board divin contest, O. Schulte second. Dan _Carroll carried off the first prize in the 120-yard special handicap, J. Ringrose second.
