Joseph Ross, who was employed in the eroom, ran to the water tower house and had an alarm turned in from box No. 6l. As soon as the department ar- rived at the burning bullding it was seen that_rapid work was required to keep the flames under control, so skipping the econd alarm a third was turned in im- mediately. The water tower was slow in | getting to work, consuming nearly fifteen | minutes before it got a stream of water | on the building.

The same thing happened at Sandy Point in the Straits of Magellan. “We dld not know that the war was on, of course, until we arrived at Rio Janeiro.

RANK SMITH, a young fireman, who shipped on the United States battleship Oregon, has returned to this city, and Is now at the State of California Hotel, corner of Fourth and Howard streets.

The Pennsylvania and Rio Janerio are g d Senator dered to kee) expected in to-day. The latter has 130 sick soldier aboard. Captain Thompson, the a: tant chief quartermaster of thé& department, stated yesterday that he had made all the necessary arrangements to transport the sick from the Presidio dock to the Division Hospital. This will be a short move for them, and can be made with more convenience than if the men were landed at the down town dock. Two sets of barracks have been made vacant for the use of these sick soldiers. No women nurses will be allowed to accompany the troops to Manila. This has been definitely decided upon by the army authorities, who will see that their will is enforced. The Secretary of War alone will have the power in future to grant an order which will permit any of the gentler sex from accompanying troops on transports. The rule thus made does not effect nurses only, as the wives of commanding officers, should they de- sire to accompany their husbands, must do S0 on the regular passenger steamers, Unless they are favored by the Secretary of War. Conduct which created much gossip on the part of the nurses on the Arizona is what has caused the order to be made. The officials do not make this, however, a particular ground for divorc- ing women from the hospital department, but say that the service is better without hem. ¢ The War Department has notifled Colo- nel Long, authorizing the expenditure of such money as may be necessary to fix up the Tacoma for the purpose of making another attempt to transport horses to Manila. It is understood that First Lieu- tenant John O’'Shea, Fourth Cavalry, whose troop is now at Manila, will be put in charge of the Tacoma. The vessel and all Government property aboard of her has already been turned over to Lieuten- ant O'Shea. Major Field, Second Artillery, who has been weeding out the undesirable soldiers of the Tennessee Regiment, has about completed his work. The majority of these men will be mustered out upon the charge of physical disability. It Is esti- mated _that the- number of men thus dropped will be slightly in excess of one hundred. They constifute the disturbing element which has so often brought the regiment into ill-respute. The War De- partment_will be petitioned to allow the regiment to recruit up to its maximum strength. Private C. B. Eshelmen, Company M, First Washington Regiment, who was tried by a general court martial upon the charge of larceny, was acquitted and has been ordered released from confinement and ordered to_ report to his company commander for duty. Private Harry Wallace, Company G, Seventh California Regiment, dled at the Division Hnsfilml late on Friday night. His remains have been sent to his home at Redlands. Upon the recommendation of the chief surgeon, Acting Assistant Surgeon A. J. Pedlar has been assigned to duty at the Division Field Hospital. GRAND LODGE ADJOURNS. Close of the Fort}-Ninth Convocation of the Grand Body of Masons. The forty-ninth annual convocation of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons was brought to a close yesterday, after the acceptance of the reports of several committees and the installation of the elected and appointed officers. The officers installed were: Judge F. M. Angellotti, grand master; Charles L. Pat- ton, deputy grand master; J. A. Foshay, senlor grand warden; W. 5.

Clarence Dunn, a bright boy 6 years of age, was a victim yesterday afternoon to the habit of boys jumping on trucks while being driven along the streets. About 1 o'clock he and some other boys jumped on the rear end of a truck that \\‘ai) being dl!il\'cn across Fourth street at Perry by Harry Smith, a teamster for McNab® & Smith. The boy fell off the side of the truck and the hind wheel passed over his head, crushing his skull S0 that the brains oozed out. Smitn’s at- tention was called to the boy, and he stopped his team and went back to where the boy was lying. The sight sickened him and he could do nothing. A crowd soon gathered, and a man who was passing in his buggy picked up the boy and drove him in the direction of the Receiving Hospital. The ambulance had been summoned, and on its way met the buggy, and the unconscious boy was transferred to the ambulance, At the Recelving Hospital Dr. Bunneil found that the boy had sustained a com pound comminuted fracture of the skull and could not live many minutes. He died in half an hour, and the body was sent to the Morgue. The boy lived with his parents at 225 Perry street, and had not left the louse more than five minutes when the sad ac- cident occurred. ~Smith, the teamstor, was arrested by Special Officer O'Connor and taken to the City Prison, where a charge of manslaughter was booked against him. He was released on his own recognizance by Judge Mogan. —————— AID WOULD BE WELCOMED. The Mother of Willie Lynch in Need of Assistance—He Was the Family’s Breadwinner. Mrs. Lynch, mother of little Willie Lynch, the boy whose skull was fractured by Policeman Kenville's club three weeks ago, is having a difficult time trying to provide for her family of children and take care of Willie at the same time. The effects of the blow are such as to change the child from a bright boy of 10 to one with the mentality of a baby, }m{d v{xm all the peevishness of an alling nfant. Willie and his elder brothe; bread winners of the family, and slone Willle was injured the elder boy has also taken ill, and the result is that the fam- ily is 'in straitened circumstances. There is little or nothing in their home at 166 Clara street, and were it not for the kindness of a few who have interest- ed themselves in the family there would be nothing to eat in the house. The aid of charitably inclined people would not be misplaced if it were bestowed upon the suffering family. Mrs. Lynch thinks, since the present condition was caused by a man in the employ of the city, it would not be amiss for the people’ to help her through her trouble, PrEl L i 0 Musie in the Park, The programme for the regular concert in Golden Gate Park this afternoon is as follows: March, “Seventh Regiment..

Mutual Company Will Seek to En- join the Gas and Electric Com- pany From Collecting City Bills. There is a hot legal fight in prospect between the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company and its new rival, the Mutual Electric Company. The latter will try to prevent the payment to the first named company of any money un- der the recently executed street lighting contract, claiming that the same is void by reason of frauds in the award. In case the Supervisors next Monday pass over the Mayor's veto a resolution ordering the $24,000 September bills of the San Francisco Gas and Electric Com pany to be paid, the opposing company will sue for an injunction in court to restrain Auditor Broderick from approv- ing the demand. Such was the statement made to the Auditor yeSterday by W. R. Summer- hayes, vice president and general man- ager of the Mutual Electric Light Com- pany. He called at the Auditor's office n the afternoon and asked that the pay- ment of the $24,000 be held up, if ordered by the Supervisors, until his company could institute the necessary legal pro- ceedings to_have the contract declared valueless. Mr. Summerhayes was in- formed that his request would be granted for a period of ten days. In stating his position in the matter the Auditor de- clared that he was not the proper per- son to say whether or not the $24,000 should eventually be paid, the law pro- viding that when a bill isallowed over the Mayor’'s veto that fact constituted a le- al warrant for the payment of the same. Nevertheless, he was inclined to give the Mutual Company a chance to prove its case, if it could, but would grant no sus- pension of approval of the bills longer than ten days, which would give ample time for the flling of an injunction suit against him. Mr. Summerhayes assured Mr. Broderick that the company was in earnest, stating that it proposed to do everything in its power to have the new lighting contract declared void and thus secure another chance to enter the field as a competitor. He declared that the action of the Supervisors in preventing the Mutual Company from ereeting poles for a competing gas and electric sys- ed the law by making tem transgres: competitive bids impossible. The programme, as outlined, is about as follows: On next Monday the Super- visors will appropriate, over the Mayor's veto, the $24,000 for the September gas bills’ The demand on the Treasurer will then be sent to Auditor Broderick, who will hold it up. ’ On Tuesday the injunction proceed- ings against the Auditor will be com- menced by the Mutual Company and then the whole matter will be settled in court. It will be recalled that Mayor Phelan, in his second veto message, recently sent to the Supervisors, claimed that the lighting contract was not only illegal but objectionable, inasmuch as it would make the city pay $40,000 more for lighting !gan if the competing company were awarded the contract, while the citizens would suffer to the extent of an added $100,000 on private illuminating bills. The Mayor disputed Supervisor Rottanzli's right to cast the deciding vote In overthrowing his first veto when it was sent to the board. 3 At the time when the veto was over- ruled there were fi)’lni charges in the air that one Supervisor had received $§20,000 for his vote, but no investigation of the reports were instituted by the board. It is quite possible that this phase of the matter will receive an alring in the courts during the hearing of the petition for an injunction. MUSTERING IN NEW NATIONAL GUARDSMEN REORGANIZATION OF CITIZEN SOLDIERY COMMENCES. Eighteen Companies in the Second and Seven in the Third Brigade. New Cavalry Troop. The machinery for the reorganization of the Natfonal Guard of the State of Cali- fornia has finally been set in motion, and it 1s probable that the first companies of the new organization will be mustered in within the next two weeks. The first step to that end was the Issuance, some days since, of the following order from division headquarters: Brigadler General R. H. Warfleld command- ing the Second Brigade, N. G. C., is hereby directed, In accordance with the decision of the Board of Location and Organization, to muster in in his brigade not exceeding elgh- teen new companies in lieu of those which are now in the volunteer service. Preference will be given to the localities from which these compantes have entered the service. Should eny locality from which & company has entered the service neglect or not desire to form a new company, applications from other places can be_considered. There i3 no doubt as to any men coming Into the guard through these new companies, who have already served or are still in the service, not having been discharged, that their time will count just as if there had never been any volunteering, and If, as the result of a physi- cal examination, men have to be discharged by reason of physical disability, it is belleved that proper legislative action can be had at the coming session of the Legislature to protect them fully. By command of MAJOR GENERAL DICKINSON. L. S. SCHMITT, Major and Afd. Upon receipt of the above special order Brigadier General Warfleld issued general order No. 5, which reads: In accordance with directions fi specinl orders No. 27, current series, Division Headquarters, the following detail 'is hereby made for the orf&nlznuon and mustering in of Jot exceeding elghteen new companies in the Second Brigde, N.

An order similar to that issued to the commander of the Second Brigade has been issued to Brigadier General W. M. Muller, commanding the Third Brigade, to muster in his brigade a company at ‘Woodland, to take the place of Company F, Second Infantry, and six additional new companies, to take the places of the six companies of the Second Infantry which have entered the United States volunteer service. There will also be the organization and mustering in of a new troop of cavalry at Sacramento to take the place of Troop B, now in the service of the United States. The following named have been dis- charged from the service of the State and from the Signal Corps of the Second Bri- gade on the ground of removal: Privates J. C. Jurs and W. H. Covert. Captain L. H. Turner, commanding the Naval Militia, is still confined to his home by illness. Last “Tuesday night there were sixty men of the two divisions at this port on Spreckels wharf, where they were put through infantry drill by Lieutenant W. E. Elliott and Ensigns Kammerer and Morton. A number of the men who were with the auxiliary navy have returned to thelr respective divisions, and are now more enthusiastic than they were before they enlisted in the service of Uncle Sam. A number of the members of this branch of the guard have applied for seven years' exemption certificates, hav- ing served that length of time in the guard. As yet nothing uas been done in the matter of the removal of the Marion from her present berth on the city front. It is thought that if the vessel is ordered into the stream it will have a discourag- ing effect on the men who are again be- coming enthusiastic. AROUND THE CORRIDORS Captain W. H.
