A KLONDIKER'S GRUBSTAKE Charles Lamb Declares It Was a Loan. TROUBLE OVER A STAKE WILL OPPOSE THE MEN WHO WANT A DIVISION. | The Los Angeles Miner Denies the Allegations of His Friends Who DLoaned Him Money. Charles Lamb, one of the successful miners of the Klondike, has returned to s city to enjoy his hard-earned wealth. H ent here will not be altogether a tour of comfort and enjoyment, if the ad- vices received from Los Angeles are cor- “t. There are several men in that city who will contest in court the right of | Lamb to retain the vast amount of money | which he is reported to have taken out ot his mine. They claim that it in part be- ngs to them, as they grub-staked the iccessful Lamb previous to his departure for the Northwest in 1886, The men who assert that they are enti- | tied to a portion of the earnings of Lamb .re N.

He is inclined to put a wet blanket over the reparts of his great strike on Hurker, but the returning Klon- dikers all say that Lamb has some very valuable mining property, and that he brought a good big pile of dust and bilis with him. MILITARY MATTERS. Troops at the Presidio Are Awaiting the Return of General Merriam. It is the general opinion of those who are in a position to know that the troops will certainly be kept at the Presidio until General Merriam returns and makes his | report as to what disposition he thinks should be made of the forces now here. | The question has med the propor- tions of a long weary wait, but every one is hopeful that when the general arrives the regiments will get away to Honolulu.

While flshing from the wharf near the Pioneer Boat Club house yesterday afte: | noon, & boy of about 12 years fell into the bay. Coney Ochs, champion sculler in the | Junor class, who had been out in his shell | for a practice spin, emerged from the clubhouse, arrayed in his Sunday best, as the boy came to the surface for the third time. Realizing that no time was to ve | lost in dlvesting himself of his garments, Ochs took a heauer Into the water, reaco- ing the lad just in time to save . m from drowning. ther members of the club succeeded in landing rescuer and rescued on the wharf in short order.

The Fairmount and Glen Park Improve- ment Club, at its regular weekly meet- ing Saturday night, elected the following officers: Chris Stader, president; Thomas | Crouch, vice-president; Joseph P. Tuohey, secretary; Joseph Heck, treasurer, and John Hansen, sergeant at arms. The sum of 385 was collected toward con- structing a meeting hall. The club’ will send a petition to the Board of Super- visors demanding that the board rescind the extension of time granted Messrs. Flinn & Treacy on their contract to sewer Chenery street. The sewer on Chenery street was ordered done as a sanitary measure over two years ago, and | Messrs. Flinn & Treacy have failed to fulfill their contract. Thelr failure to do the work has stopped building and created a nuisance on Chenery street, therefore the club expects the Board of Supervisors to do their duty in the matter. ————— Labor Party Convention.

Physicians recommend the Crystal warm sea ‘water tub and swimming baths, North Beach. A THICK SKULL HIS SALVATION J. M. Shaughnessy Shot in the Forehead. THE BULLET FLATTENED OUT TWO BOYS FIRE AT HIM AND THEN JUMP ON HIM. The Young Culprits Are Arrested Later and Booked on the Charge of Assault to Commit Murder. James M. Shaughnessy, a school janitor living at 521% Lombard street, has to thank his thick skull for not being on a slab in the Morgue. Yesterday afternoon Shaughnessy took a ride on the cars to the Potrero. While passing Third and Townsend streets he saw ‘lom Canavan, engineer of Engine 3, and his wife, and jumped off to have a talk with them. Then he boarded an- other car, and hearing shots in the neigh- borhood ' of Kentucky and Merrimac streets he jumped off to investigate. When he reached the water's edge he saw several boys bathing, and it occurred and socks and wade in the water. Just then two boys about 15 years of age came up to him and one of them said *“You —, we have got you now.” Before Shaughnessy could say or do anything they each fired a shot at him and he fell. Then they jumped on him lip and ear. He yelled for help and the two boys fled in the direction of a lum- ber yard. Policemen Mullin and McCor- mick were notified that there was a shooting racket and they hurried to the scene. They met Shaughnessy with his face covered with blood, and on ques- tioning him he told them he did not know the boys and could not recognize them. They must have mistaken him for some | one else, he though Shaughnessy was sent to the Receiving Hospital in the ambulance, and Dr. Pren- tice found a bullet in his forehead over the left eye. He soon_ extracted it and was surprised to find it had been flattened against the skull. It was a 32 caliber bul- let, and as the shot was fired at close range the wonder is that the builet did not penetrate the skull and cause death. The doctors could only account for it by the thickness of Shaughnessy’s skull. Detective Dillon was detailed on the case, and when he Interrogated Shaugh- nessy he gave him a false name and re- peated his story that he had done noth- | ing when the two boys fired the shots at | him. The detective did not believe the story, and further investigation proved that he was right. Late vesterday afternoon Sergeants Brophy and Conboy arrested two young men giving their names as John Thomp- | son and Patrick Kelly on suspicion of having shot Shaughnessy. They were tigation. Both men were subsequently identified as the asaflants of Shaugh- nessy. According to several witnesses of | the shooting. Kelly and Thompson, who | were under the influence of liquor, whip- | ped out their revolvers and commenced | shooting over the heads of the bathers, Shaughnessy, fearing that they would in- | jure somebody, ordered them to cease | shooting. | “Kelly replied that if Shaughnessy did not mind his own business he would “blow his head off.” Thompson. at this juncture, stepped up to Shaughnes and attempted to strfke him over head with his revolver. Thinking that the drunken ruffians were trying to “run a bluff,”” as he expressed it. Shaughnessy determined to show them that they could not intimidate him. Walking up to Thompson he proceeded to chastise him, when Kelly aimed his re- volver at his head and fired. "As he fell wounded to the ground, both the men struck him over the head with their weapons, inflicting several scalp wounds. They then repeatedly kicked him and had it not been for several cltizens who interfered they wound have killed him. Shortly afterward the two men ran down Kentucky street and made their scape. “Sergeants Conboy and Brophy, assisted by a number of police officers, started out to find them. After considerable trouble they located them 1 street, near Fifth. sistance when told that they were under arrest, and were at once taken to the Receiving Hospital to be identified by their victim.

BY ORDER OF GENERAL MILES NEXT SATURDAY NIGHT [(HE TIME SET. The Home-Comers Will Probably Be Concentrated at Seagirt, an Excellent New Jersey Camp. Specfal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—Deputy Quar- termaster Kimball to-day received an order from General Miles, setting forth that a parade of the returning Porto Rican troops will take place in this city on Saturday night. Colonel Kimball was instructed to propose a suitable camp for the men who are on their way from Ponce in the Government transports. As soon as Colonel Kimball received the order he communicated with Gov- ernor Voorhees of New Jersey to con- sult as to the establishment of a tem- | porary camp at Seagirt. Early in the war Governor Voorhees offered to the | War Department the use of the camp | at Seagirt, and the site was inspected by the surgeon general's assistants. The mess halls and the kitchens erected | and the accommodations for the troops are said to be excellent. There is plenty of water and the camp i8 in a healthy | location. Colonel Kimball desires to know if the camp is still available. No agreement was reached to-day, though will be used. The transports Concho and Alamo are on their way from Ponce and they are expected to arrive this week. Though none of the arrangements have been | decided upon it is more than probable | that the event will be made the occa- sion of a grand review of all troops that are able to take part, whether they have taken part in the Porto Ri- can campaign or not. The troops that arrived in the city on the Mississippi will take part in the parade. These In- clude Troops A and C, as well as the Pennsylvania troops that returned with them. On the Concho are General Wilson and staff of the First Division, First Army Corps and staff of the Sixth Army Corps; detachment of TUnited States Engineers, Company C, unat- | tached artillery, battery, field and staff; Battery A, Missouri Volunteers; Bat- tery A, Twenty-seventh Indiana Volun- teers; Battery B, Pennsylvania Volun- teers; total, thirty-three officers and 530 enlisted men. | There will arrive on the Alamo Com- panies G, H and E, Second Wisconsin; Battery A, First Illinois; Company H, First District of Columbia; Battery C, Pennsylvania Atrillery, unattached; six officers, fifty men and thirty civilian employes; total, forty-eight officers and 545 enlisted men.

Recommenda- tions for the award will be governed by this iInterpretation of extraordinary merit. Recommendations should be made only by the officer in command at the time of the “action,” or by an officer having per- sonal cognizance of the K&\Pcm(‘ act for which the medal is granted. The recom- mendation must be accompanied by a detailed recital of the circumstances er by certificates of officers or afdavits of | enlisted men who were eye-witnesses of the act.

CAMP WIKOFF, Montauk Point, Sept. 11.—A fall of ten degrees in the temperature was experienced last night. The cold wave was accompanied by a high wind, which for several hours threatened to blow down the tents. The storm moderated toward morning. The three trains that arrived to-day brought from New York a large num- ber of Sunday visitors, who spent sev- eral hours inspecting the camp. The transport Saratoga arrived from Santiago to-day with about sixty members of the Signal Corps, in com- mand of Lieutenant Colonel Frank Green. The Saratoga also brought 250 negro laborers, who were sent to San- tiago several months ago to act as teamsters, drivers, stevedores, etc. Two of the negroes died of malarial fever on the voyage. Twelve men were sick when the steamer reached here, and were taken to the detention hospital. None of the cases are considered se- rious. The members of the Signal Corps aboard were taken to the de- tention camp. The Saratoga will be fumigated and will then go to New York, where the negroes will land. Colonel Roosevelt expects to have his regiment of Rough Riders mustered out on Thursday, when the men will go to their homes. The officers and men of the regiments are preparing to present to Colonel Roosevelt a testimonial of thelr regard in the form of a small bronze statue designed by Frederick Remington, the artist. The general bellef in Camp Wikoff to- day is that great changes will be seen here before the present week is over. Reports are circulated freely that Gen- eral Miles has assumed the active di- rection of the affairs of the camp and that he intends to have all regular troops removed from here as soon as possible and sent to regular army posts. General Bates, who is now in com- mand of Camp Wikoff, admitted to-day that new orders had been received from Washington in regard to the dis- position of the soldiers here, and the general understanding is that they will be moved away as rapidly as possible.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 1L—The United her crew, arrived here this afternoon from Porto Rico.
