A Hospital for the Accommodation of | Three Hundred Soldiers May 'Be Erected on Angel Island. | Dispatches received here from Wash-| W sterday announce the fact that | | ington y | it has been decided by the War Depart- | ment to place General Miller in command | of the troops lately ordered to Manila. When became known at the Presidlo it causec the greatest satisraction among both officers and men. Only yesterday | morning General Miller yielded to | persuasions of the officers under him, and | wrote a formal letter to the adjutant gen- | eral of the army requesting that he be | placed In command of the troops ordered | to Manila. | It is now positively known that for some days, In fact ever since the order | came for the troops to go, the officers | that were included in the order have been | quietly at work using their influence to | secure the command for the general. Gen- | eral Miller was highly pleased when in- formed of the dispatches from Washing- ton, and he declared that he hoped that th | they were true, but added that he had not yet received any official notification | that he would be sent to Manila in com- | mand of the troops. | No one seems to doubt the authenticity | of the dispatches, and if they be true it | means that the general will in all prob- | ability be made a major general of volun- | teers. This would follow as a natural sequence of his being appointed to com- mand a division. The most important thing done by Gen- | eral Miller yesterday was the considera- tion of the bullding of a hospital to ac- commodate 300 sick soldiers. He had a long consultation with Surgeon Colonel Middleton with the result that it was ractically declded to ask the War epartment to order the erection of such | & hospital. Colonel Middieton has_with- | drawn his objection to Angel Island, and | the hospital will no doubt be . erected | there. 1t is absolutely ne: ary that the | brick barracks shall” be ted by the | Division Hospital, as they will be needed to ehelter the troops that remain behind at the Presidio during the winter. The batterles of the Third Artillery, two troops of the Kourth Cavalry, three com- panies of the Eighth Regiment, the Al- ger Light Battery and tne Nevada Cav- alry have to be cared for, and the brick barracks will be needed for them, so there is little doubt that the hospital will_be granted by the department and erccted In the near future. Orders have now been issued taat Angel Isiand shall be garrisoned by tweclve men from Bat- tery I, Third Artillery, under the com- mand of two non-commissioned officers, This detachment will relieve the second battalion of the First Washington Regi- ment now there. Police Inspector First Lieutenant Nolan of the Fourth Cavalry has written a 1ot ter to the adjutant of the post, complain- ing of the condition of the ground just in the rear of the convalescent tents of the division hospital. He reports that a criminal state of affairs exists there be- canse the nurses of the ital have been permitted to create an intolerable nuisance that endangers the health of those in the hospital. The matter will be brought to the attention of General Mil- ler, who will have the evil remedied. ' First Sergeunt Gall G.

Sampson, Company B, Twentieth Kansas Regiment, sentenced by a general court-martial to be fined $10 and confined for thirty days at hard labor for larceny, had his Senténce disapproved by the reviewing authority, who held that inasmuch as there was reasonable doubt of the soldler’s guilt he should be given the benefit of it. No soldier guilty of larceny is permitted to remain in the | service, and as the court gave a light sen- tence because it was in doubt as to Sampson’s guilt the sentence was disap- | proved and the soldier was released from confinement.

The men will be furnished with suitable ap- parel for the warm climate to which they are going.

She Alleges Extreme Cruelty, Failure to Provide, Habitual Intem- perance, Neglecc and Desertion. MRS. Caroline H. Sime declares she is weary of the brutality of her husband, weary of his profligate habits, his dissipation and his neglect, and she has carried her troubles to the courts, and has asked that a decree of divorce be granted her on the grounds of extreme cruelty, failure to provide, habitual intemperance, neg- lect and desertion. Mrs. Sime, who, as well as her hus- band, is well known In this city and in Oakland, states that she was married in May of 1884, and that almost immediately her husband commenced his brutal treat- ment. By reason of this treatment she states that her health has been shattered, and at one time her life was despaired of. As specific Instances of cruelty Mrs. Sime refers to an assault made upon her by her husband in February of 1863. He entered their home in Oakland and with- out provocation struck her on the head with his clenched fist. On other occa- sions, she says, he would come home maudlin drunk and fall on the floor. She would be forced to ‘‘drag him to bed to her great shame.”” On January 9 of the resent year, when she was residing at 11 Tenth street in this cl(l’y, she alleges that he called upon her and told her that if she were not a woman he would kill her, at the same time violently abusing her. In March of the present year he publicly charged her with Infidelity, which, she says, he knew was false. i estranged many of her friends, she de- clares, and added to her many woes. Mrs. Sime states that she holds an in- terest in property on Pine street, between Kearny and Dupont and on Jackson near Drumm street, in_this city, and through a gift deed from ber husband is entitled to a one-quarter iInterest in the Toland ranch in Solano County. Some time ago she placed the gropeny in the hands of Mary L. Sime, her husband’s mother, to be held in trust. Yesterday her attor- neys procured a restraining order from Judge Belcher enjoining the present hold- er or her husband from disposing of or incumbering the }llroperty pending the outcome of the suit. Besides the property Mrs. Sime asks for the custody of her suitable alimony an four minor chd’dmn John, Wflmu.m M., e Frank and on Sime, last named being six years of age and the youngest of the children. —_——————— Pursuing “Mammy”’ Pleasant.

DRUGGED AND ROBBED OF HIS VALUABLES Bold Crime of a Bad Woman. A SOLDIER HER VICTIM WAS RELIEVED OF HIS MONEY AND A WATCH. Annie Murphy, Alias “Lady Wash- ington,” Accused of Adminis- tering Ether to James Mec- Crary of Battery I. James B. McCrary, a private in Bat- tery I, Third Artillery, last night caused the arrest of Annie Murphy, allas “Lady Washington,” on a charge of robbery. On the night of August 13 McCrary, while taking in the tenderloin, met the fair Annie. She claimed she was a re- cent arrival from the East, and she had “money to burn,” as she expressed it. After having several drinks McCrary foolishly accompanied her to a room at 25% Stockton street. While he was asleep on the lounge the woman saturated a handkerchief with ether and applied it to his nostrils. The overpowering fumes of the drug aroused him to a realization of the dan- ger, and he vainly attempted to get pos- sesslon of the handkerchief. The woman held him until the drug had rendered him unconscious, and she then went through his pockets, taking all the money he had, amounting to $42, and a sllver watch, McCrary lay in a semi-conselous condi- tion until the following day, when his he:xvy breathing attracted the attention of the landlady, who, becoming alormed, summoned Police Officer Fennell. The latter succeeded In resuscitating the sol- dier, and after learning the story started to find the woman. Faillng to locate her he gave a description of her to Police- man Colen, whose beat s in the tender- loin district. Colen searched the various dives on Grant avenue, but was unable to find the woman. After a diligent search he flnally located her yesterday afternoon in a lodging-house on Grant avenue. She was at once taken to the City_Prison, where her name was regis- tered on the small book. Last evening McCrary positively identified her as the woman who had drugged and robbed him. When questioned by the police the fair prisoner admitted that she had met MecCrary, but denied that she had reliev- ed him of his money. “He is a llar if he says I touched him,” she indignantly remarked. “You guys_think you can pump me, but you're on the dead card this time. I'm dead next, and know a thing or two. I'm no spring chicken and you can’t shake me down, see?" The arresting officer is inclined to the bellef that the woman is an Eastern ope- rator, and he intends to make every ef- fort to find out her past history. L. H. JOSSELYN’S TROUBLES. Authorities on an Old Charge. Lockwood H. Josselyn, the soldier who was arrested Monday night for discharg- ing firearms within the city limits and was accused by his wife of trying to chloroform and shoot her, appeared be- fore Judge Mogan yesterday and the case was again continued until to-day, The postal authorities have given no intimation of what they inténd doing with Josselyn in connection with the old charge against him of opening letters addressed to Mrs. Howe, a “specialist.” The police have been unable to find his wife, and it is thought that she is ur- osely keeping out of the way so th: T case against him in the Pollce Conar will have to be disi him for a divorce. missed.

The Secretary of the Treasury Tells the Bottlers of Vinous Fluids Whay They Are Made an Exception. The wine men of this State who have been opposing the war tax on bottled wines on the ground that it was not only discriminating but unconstitutional have recelved a body blow that not only dazes but amuses them. The clalm is made by the bottlers that in placing a tax on wine in glass 9 per cent of the vinous product escapes the impost, and that the burden falls on the few who sell goods in case. A short time ago the Wetmore-Bowen Company notified the Government that they would not pay the tax, justifying thelr position on the theory above men- tioned. The firm has recelved a reply from the Secretary of the Treasury in which he makes the confusing statement that the tax is not placed “‘upon the wine as a wine, but upon the method.” The con- fusion arises from the fact that the meth- ods of treating and bottling wines are as numerous as the bottlers thereof. In other words the wine is not taxed, but the method of getting it upon the market is. Taking this theory the bottlers say that it would be as reasonable to tax the method of placing bulk wines before the public. They also say several other things about the misguided indlvidual who drew up the wine section of the revenue law and made it “left-handed.” However, they must pay the tax, as shown by the following letter from the Treasury Department to the Wetmore- Bowen Company: Sir: Your letter of the 27th inst., addressedto the honorable Secretary of the Treasury, pro- testing against payment of the tax on wines when bottled for sale, on the ground that sald iscriminative, unjust and unconstitu- has been referred to this office. You suggest that wine should be taxed at the winery where it is made while still in the wood, so that an ‘equitable tax upon every prodicer” will be assured, while under the present system many large growers and mer- chants, who sell milllons of gallons in wood annually, escape taxation to the detriment of those who pujpup and sell thelr productin glaes. The act of June 13, 18%, popularly known as the “war revenue law,” imposes a stamp tax parkling or other wines when bottled for . The function of the executive branch of the Government is to carry out or execute the laws as enacted by Congress and it has no power to inquire into the expediency or consti- tutionality of laws so enacted. The intent and purpose of the law above referred to was not apparently to levy a tax on wine as wine, but on the usual and customary method of putting it up #o as to be available for sale to the class of consumers upon whom presumably the extra burden would ultimately fall with the least {nconvenience. Respectfully yours, G. W. WILSON, Acting Commissioner, Tt is understood that the protesting wine house, while complying with the law, will make a test case of its con- stitutionality, and in case of success will make a demand for a restitution of the money paid to the Government.

E. Benguiat, a dealer in Oriental rugs and antiquities, believes that he has discovered a conspiracy to ruin his busi- ness, and he has sued Mihram Courian, Charles Courian and the Turkish Rug Company to recover $15,000, which sum he believes will compensate him for the damage he has sustained. The plaintiff alleges that by reason of his great skill, judgment and experience in the art of collecting rugs and antiqui- ties he has established a large and valu- able business. This the defendants knew, he avers, and, in order to profit thereby, conspired to 'Dlace upon the market a quantity of cheap and common rugs, al- leged to have once been the property of one H. E. Benguian, a name strikingly similar to that of the plaintiff. The rugs, it was sald, passed from Bengulat's hands through the foreclosure of a chat- tel mortgage executed in favor of A. Alexander. There was never in being sueh a per- son as H. E. Bengulan, says the plaintiff, and the name was placed upon the pur- ported chattel mortgage for the purpose of leading plaintiff'’s many customers to believe tgat his goods were to be dis- osed of at auctlon. Yesterday was the Sale set for the sale of the goods and Benguiat was of the opinion that if the court refused to issue an injunction, not only would he suffer irreparable dam- age, but the public would be victimized as 'well. In_ consequence his attorneys went before Judge Belcher and presented the facts of the case and temporary in- {uncuon was issued. Complainant’s at- orneys then went to Golden Gate H%ll, e no- where preparations for the sale were ing made, and served the injunction tice. In consequence the sale did not come off and in all probability will not until after the court has passed upon the merits of plaintiff's contention. ————————— SHY OF ANNEXATION.
