I received the notice from the Navy De- | artment in cipher and started for Key | West at once, elated and overjoved, for 1 thought at last my time had come. When I arrived at Key West I was sur- | prised to discover that the entire coun- | try had already learned of the news. But disappointment was again my meas ure. “There is one thing I cannot under- stand and that is the so-called Spanish honor. There I was with a fleet of gun- boats, converted yachts and a motley col- lection of every vessel known to the water service. Cervera knew of it and neglect- ed his opportunity.

They might have fought afi Santlago and done something though they never would have won.” The commodore has not yet deived into matters at Mare Island. He thinks that in a couple of weeks he will have his plans prepared for the changes to be made on the island. ‘ NATIONAL BANK FOR i HAWAIIAN ISLANDS WILL SOON BE ESTABLISHED AT HONOLULU.

REAR ADMIRAL MILLER HERE TO TURN THE COMMAND OVER | TO COMMODORE KAUTZ. Death of Captain Cattermole—Eva | Hess Went to Victoria on the Walla Walla as Flor- ence Cooper. The transport Indiana got in yesterday morning and the Newport wil probably arrive to-day. Both vessels left Manila | in fatrly good trim, but the Indiana has| taken a very long time to get back. She| made the run to Yokohama in fourteen days and there she coaled. From Yoko- hama to San Francisco she took twenty- six days, or nearly & fortnight longer | than the Mail steamers. A slight break | in her machinery was the cause of the | delay. The Newport is only twenty-seven | days out from Manila but she called at| Kobe and sailed agaln on September 22.; so she should be here at any hour now. The Senator will come off the Union Iron Works drydock to-day and the Va- lencta will take her place. The Ohfo will go on the Union Iron Works drydock to-| day also and as soon as she has been| overhauled the Indiana will take her| place. The latter vessel went direct to the quarantine station and will be fumi-| gated before she goes on the drydock. The | Newport will follow the Valencla at the | Union Iron Works and an effort will be | made to get all five vessels away next week. If they can be fitted out by Mon- | day they will leave in a punch. If not, the Senator will sail next Sunday and the others will follow as they are got ready. The cruiser Philadelphia is back at her old anchorage off Folsom street wharf. She went down to Honolulu in the good | time of six days, nineteen hours, but &s there was no hurry to get home the re- turn run occupled nine days, nineteen hours. During_ the first part of the voy- | age she was delayed by strong head win Early yesterday morning Rear Admiral Miller came ashore and on his | return to the cruiser will turn her over to | Commeodore Kautz, wh 11l succeed him | command of the Pacific station. | ‘Admiral Miller will go on the retired list | by operation of law early next month.

He has served Uncle Sam in all_capacities and his faith- ful service of forty years practically ended when he unturled Old Glory to the | Hawallan breeze. The Philadelphia will probably remain in the stream for a couple of days and will then go to Mare Island for an over- hauling.

JULIUS SMITH OF SAN JOSE!The Valencia Will Sail Next Week, TOOK TIME HONORS. and Possibly the Ohio. | The coming week will be a busy one in military circles. It promises much to the soldfers now encamped at the Presidio, for the Senator will safl for Manila with some of the forces now here and in con- | sequence interest is at fever heat among the soldiers, who are eager to learn which command will be sent away first. Yester- day General Merriam called on General Miiler for the complete field returns of all | the troops in his command. This he did | for the purpose of secing how to best se- lect commands to go on the diiferent transports. They have to be chosen with fegard to the capacity of the vessel. One fmportant thing will be observed in send- ing away the transports, and that is that the vessels will not be owded as for- merly. It was evident that the former ex- peditions were overcrowded, and this caused great Inconvenience to the men and no little suffering. and was doubtless responsible for some of the deaths that occurred on board ship. The order assigning troops to the Sena- | tor will be issued from department head- | quarters to-morrow or next day.

Dr. Green who was asleep in the Harbor Heceiving Hospital, and George W. Pratt, who was asleep on the State tug Governor Irwin, heard his screams for help and went to his assist- ance. They got a loop of a rope over Thompson's shoulders and under his arms. Then it took four of them to gét him on the wharf. Thompson went back to Palo Alto last night after signing the pledge.
