The invalid soldiers who re- turned on the Rio Janelro were the cynosures of every eye at the Presidio. Not only were they visited by the men now _en- camped at the Presidio and about to depart for the Philippines, and who wanted to know all they had to ex- pect, but many hundreds of citizens as well plied the heroes with questions until the men grew weary of answer- ing. The boys who have been, and seen and conquered and lived to re- their experiences, and while the most of them, especially those that return with wounds, are extremely modest, vet a pinch of salt has to be taken with the statements of a few. Major Matthews stated that all of the men are doing nicely, and of the dozen who are really sick he has hopes of recovery in all but one case, that of Private Willlam S. Jefferson, an un- assigned recruit of the First Colorado. He has typhoid fever with complica- tions and cannot recover. His death is but the question of a few hours. Private Fred Carver, Company G, Fifty-first lowa, {s also lying at death’s door with the same disease. The returned soldiers took advan- tage of the beautiful weather to Te- main out of doors much as possible.

All of the soldiers are happy to be at home again and not one of them has so far expressed any desire to return to Manila. They ail declare that this country is good enough for them, and that while their patriotism has not cooled in the tuture they will think twice before they g0 again. Those Who Wear the Mauser's Scars © o ] o HERE is no doubt that to those of the soldiers who brought home the mark of a Mauser bullet upon their person was accorded the greatest hom- age yesterday by the crowd that went out to visit the hospital.

Ed- wards was attached to the hospital corps, and on the night of July 31 was shot through both lungs, and the nasty Mauser that singled him out now lies embedded in his spinal column. At the time he was wounded Edwards was assisting in the work of carrying the wounded to the hospital. He is now suffering from paralysis of the legs as a result of his wound. His story as he tells it is most interesting. “I shall never forget that night at- tack. It was so dark that you could not see your hand before your face. One of those eastern typhoons that they have there was raging at the time and the rain was falling in tor- rents. You could only distinguish the man next you by the flash of his gun, and amid the noise of the tempest and the crash of the rifles the bullets kept up a frightful monotone whistling that ‘Wwas very tr)'lng upon one’s nerves. The California boys behaved like men and they saved the Minnesota soldiers from annihilation.

They have the ap- earance of logs that have been hol- Powed out, while the head and foot of the casket have a convex shape. These bodies were embalmed at Na- gasaki by Japanese and were placed in the caskets. Yesterday when one of the bodies was called for Major Mat- thews found himself in a predicament. The names of both men were upon_the caskets, but they were written in Jap- anese. The major declared that he had forgotten all the Japanese he had learned at school and no one was found who could interpret the names. The question, and it was a serious one, was which was .which.. It would not do to send Shuter’'s remains to_ Ord- way's friends, and vice versa. There was, as far as could be seen, no dis- tinguishing mark of idenfification, and Major Matthews was at his wit's' end, when one of the hospital stewards found upon the bottom of the casket, written with a pencil, In a small hand, the names of the men. But for this lece of good luck the caskets would Ra\'e had to have been opened before the men could have been identified.

The physicians were never able to determine whether he was killed by a spent Mauser or a brass slug. The boys have only words of praise for who has Submit to an operation and have the bullet removed from his spine before he can hope to have the perfect use of his limbs again. ———— Horrible Scenes in the Hospital RIVATE Charles Carter, Company K, Tenth Pennslyvania, was an- other of the soldlers who was wounded in the memorable attack of July 3. He was shot through both lungs and lay for five weeks in the fleld hospital at Camy Dewey. From his cot he witnessed the day attack upon the city, and his description of the way in which the wounded men were brought in and cared for is most interesting. He says: ““As fast as a man fell he was bun- dled into a carametta, which is a small two-wheeled cart, generally drawn by a pony much smaller than the cart. The wounded soldiers were placed in these without much regard for their ease or comfort. A guard escorted the cart to the hospital, and the pony was always driven by a native. As soon as the hospital was reached the native backed the cart up to the door and the man was taken into the op- erating reom. At first it was awful, but finally I grew accustomed to the sight of men torn and mangled. Their cries were heartrending until they were got under the influence of chloro- form. The physicians operated upon the soldiers just as rapidly as possibie, Frequently at night the last sound I would hear would be the groans of some poor_fellow, and it would be the first sound that fell upon my ears in the morning. I became accustomed to the sight of seeing men die and be car- ried out for burial. When a soldier was dead they would sew him up in a sack and take him out. Then a detail would come for him, and that was the end of it all. It was horrible, but finally I came to look upon death just gs one looks upon any other thing in life and these daily occurrences made no impression upon me. Identity Buried in dJapanese Writing HE remalns of Privates Henry P. lott J. Ordway of the Second Ore- Shuter of the Astor Battery and El- gon Regiment, who died at sea, were embalmed, placed in Japanese caskets, hermetically sealed and brought here for shipment to their homes. On Sat- urday night the two bodies were re- moved to the division hospital pend- ing their shipment. These caskets are both alike. They are longer and heavier than the ordinary casket and Posting Sentries Under Heavy Fire ERGEANT GEORGE W. SMALL, Company L, First Colorado, had an experience during the night at- tack of July 31 that will remalin green in his memory for some time to come. He describes it as follows: “I was In charge of the outpost sen- tries that night. It was my duty to post the sentries. With the relief I was sitting in front of the fire think- ing of home when the firing com- menced and the Lullets began to sing all around us. The small branches that were cut away by them fell like rajn. One of the sentries came in and wanted to know If he could not lie down as_the Mausers were too thick for comfort. He sald he could see just as well and_he thought perhaps 2 little: better. I told him yes, and he went ba¢k to his post and threw himself upon the ground. Just then a bullet ripped up the earth beneath his leg and one whizzed by my ear. I told the boys I thought it was get- ting too warm by the fire, and that we had better get behind trees and cool off. I saw no_use in uselessly exposing myself and men, especially as we were not in the fight and could not see from where the bullets were coming. I felt rather frightened, and during it all T had to leave that tree and go out and post my relief. I shall nevl:rnlurget my sensations upon that night.!

The funeral of Private Deutchen, Battery I, Third Artillery, who died at the post hospital of typhoid fever, took place yesterday afternoon. Private James N. Meadors of the Eighth California, who was recently acquitted of the murder of Private Ury of the same regiment, has been arrested and -confined at the Presidio. He will now have to appear before a military tribunal to answer the charge of conduct prejudicial to good order and military discipline. He can not be tried for murder again. The Indiana will sail this week. Tt is now expected that the Pennsyl- vania will get away before the Ohlo, as the latter has réquired much more r(‘pmrin? than was at first thought she would. Private Charles P. Tuthill of the Corps of Engineers, who was returned as insane, is thought by Major Mat- thews to be only shamming insanity. The man talks intelligently and there is nothing about him to Indicate that he is mentally unbalanced. He was tried for conniving with the insur- gents and was convicted and sen- tenced to be shot, and it is said that he escaped upon the gromnds of in- sanity. The man has only fourteeen more days to serve. 0000000000 00000000000000000000000000C00000000C00C00C0000C | AT GLEN PARK. ‘The Balloon Ascension Yesterday | at Glen Park yesterday. 1 | panles, Was a Complete Success.
