Be- fore eating, Father Dempsey, who will remain here with the regiment until the end of the encampment, said grace and the command satisfied its keen ap- petites. The first night in camp was spent in becoming acquainted. No one was al- lowed to leave its sacred precinets un- til he passed the guard, a performance not quite as simple as is generally thought, as the “dead” line was lighted with incandescent lamps and was watched by keen-eyed young cadets. Among the officers now'at the camp are: Colonel William P. Sullivan Jr., regimental adjutant; Captain J. P. Duffy, Lieutenant Colonel T. F. Ryan, major of the First Battalion, D. J. Mc- Gloin; Major D. C. Deasy of the Sec- ond Battallon, Major W. H. McCarthy of the Third Battalion, Captain D. J. McCarthy, Inspector; Lieutenant H. Mahoney, quartermaster; Lieutenant .J. Watts, commissary; adjutant Firs Battalion, Lieutenant J. Crowl ad- jutant Second Battalion, First Lieuten. ant Frank 1. Gonzales; adjutant Third Battalion, First Lieutenant W. A. Kelly; chaplain, Father Dempsey, major surgeon, Dr. Morrisey; captain and assistant surgeon, Dr. J. F. Sulli- van. The tall flagpole which once graced the baseball grounds now has a promi- nent position in Camp Fallon. When | the camp awakes to-morrow morning the stars and stripes will be raised to its lofty peak with the usual military ceremonies. At 10 o'clock a solemn military mass will be celebrated by Father Dempsey in the spacious Dol- phin bathhouse.

The showing made by the s a fine one. Every company egiment has sent large repre- sentations. Companies N and F of Oakland turned out in large numbers. Company O of San Francisco s not represented, but it is thought many of its members will appear at camp dur- ing the week. The hotels are rapidly filling up with the friends and relatives of the mem- bers of the regiment. & CALIFORNI BOYS HILL SOON ShL Th Continued from First Page. Nothing whatever was brought to him in connection with the all important work affecting the conduct of the war in the Philppines. The fact that General Miles has hold of the reins of the War Department, notwithstanding that Alger has more than once begged the President to re- tire the general from command of the army, is regarded as another direct | slap at the Secretary. It remains to be seen whether this additional hint will have any effect upon the man who says he will not retire “under fire.” It is not belleved by members of the Cabinet that Secretary Alger How 10¢ Per Yard.

His last public utterance indicated- that he might *‘voluntarily” step down and out about January 1, but I was told by a Cabinet officer to-day that the President had contemplated giving him onlv sufficient time to com- plete his annual report, which is usually handed in about November 1. If a vote vere taken in the Cabinet to-day there would probably be a unanimous ver- dict that Mr. Alger ought to go at once.

The writer is not given to exaggeration, and his comments confirm the recently de. nied stories of the giving of no quarter to the natives, of shooting them after they | surrendered and of thoughtless soldiers seeking to stir up trouble with the peace- ably Inclined people. To the credit of the ‘American officers, it will be seen that they did not know of tHe deeds of the soldiers. Excerpts from the letter are as here given: “You remember readlnfi of the horrible death of Dr. Young of the Utahs. * * * An hour after he was found they sent the news over to us, and all the rest of the day we killed every insurgent we saw, in- stead of taking them prisoners. The men got so crazed over the news that when they saw an Insurgent near by they would walt till the officers were not looking and Fort Leaven- several other places. | ¥ | lough, offering the telegram as a reason, STRIKING MINERS (L NEGROES Fired Upon While .a.t Melon Feast. pedi i TWO RIDDLED WIT AT = ANOTHER FOUND IN A DYING CONDITION. - Murders Committed Because the Col- ored Men Had Been Imported to Take the Places of ‘Whites. o H BULLETS | | Special Dispatch to The Call. : BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 15.—Two | negroes were killed outright and an- other fatally shot in a fight to-night at Ishkoda between the striking miners and the negroes who have been import- ed from Georgia to take their places. After the first brush the firing became almost general throughout the mining town, but deputies who were sent from | here had restored quiet at midnight. | The killing seems to have been the| result of-a plot. To-night about 9| o'clock twenty-five or thirty negroes | were gathered in one of the large mess | halls of the company eating water- | melons. The house w: nddenly fired | on from ambush. Ful two hundred | shots were fired and the walls were | riddled. The negroes scattered in ev-| ery direction.

He told the driver that he | would return to his regiment in a few | one da He is a young man of unquestioned veracity and has peen one of the best soldiers in his company. Influential | friends will endeavor to secure his release from the serious charge of desertion. AMERICAN SURGEONS ARE NOT ATTACKED TACOMA, Wash., July 15.—Major Sur- geon T. R. Dawson of the First Washing- ton Volunteers, writing to the Ledger from Pasig, Philippine Islands, denles the statements that the Filipinos have at- tacked American surgeons of the hospital corps. 5 l‘u far as own observation and in- formation go.” he wri “I know of no case where wounded Filipinos have tried to injure surgeons or hospital ‘corps men. On the contrary, they have welcomed our assistance and have been grateful for it.” Dr. Dawson denies the truth of a sensa- tional report sent out some time ago in which he was said to have been dressing the wounds of three Filippinos who at- tempted to stab him, and the surgeon then shot the three. FILIPINO JUNTA MAY MOVE FROM HONGKONG MANILA, July 15—It is reported that the Filipino Junta will be moved from Hongkong to the island of Labuan, a Brit- ish coleny six miles from the northwest coast of Borneo, as the American officials have watched the members of the Junta 20 closely at Hongkong that the latter have found it impossible to supply the insurgents with_arms. The transport Warren sails Sunday with the Colorado Regiment, Major Bradley Strong and Major Young of the Supreme | Court, who is going to Utah for a vaca- tion, on board. Professor Schurman will arrive at San Francisco on board the China. ADVERTISEMENTS. ‘When death 2 has laid its < cold and re- Y.~ lentless hand 7 upon a kind and loving ‘ husband, the ) wife cannot be blamed for ask- ing herself if all her years of de- votion and work . and helpfulness were worth the while, when it fumes so soon to this tragic end. If men would only take the most com- mon sense precautions against the en- croachments of ill-health, there would be fewer houses of mourning, and fewer women left alone almost helpless before the battle of life is half over. A man’s liver and stomach are twin machines that work together, either to make or unmake. If they work wrong, they deplete and poison_his blood. Impure and impover- 1shed blood mean sickness and death. If they work right, they purify and enrich the blood. A man whose blood is rich and ure, and whose liver is active cannot well e unhealthy. Hcadaches, biliousness, in- digestion and costiveness, which men gen- erally disregard, are Nature's warnings that the twin mechanism, stomach and liver, is working against, instead of for him. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov- ery is the best medicine to use under these circumstances. It creates appetite, cor- rects all disorders of the digestion, invigor- ates the liver and fills the arteries with rich, red, healthy blood. _As an invigorat- ing, restorative tomic, it is far superior to all the malt extracts. It is the great blood- maker and flesh-builder. It does not build sickly, flabby fat as cod liver oil does, but the firm, muscular tissues of health. ‘“For the last nine years,” writes William Miller, Esq., of 651 Mu{berry Street, Reading, Pa., “I have been very poor in heaith. fered with a running sore leg.

Of course, a cavalry command would suit me, but that may be impos- | sible. I shall cheerfully accept what- ever assignment may be made.” General Wheeler asked many tions touching the reports brought by the Oregon volunteers concerning the discipline and fighting qualities of the Filipino army. He seemed to be im- pressed with the notion that the insur- gents were receiving supplies of arms and ammunition from Hongkong or some other port. General Wheeler will not tarry in San Francisco longer than is necessary to make his arrangements for his voyage to Manila. On the arrival of the be- lated train last night he went directly to the Occidental Hotel, where accom- modations had been reserved for him- self and companions. It will afford him great again meet General Shafter, who so ably commanded the forces in the field before Santiago. General Wheeler is not one of the military men who con- tend that the American army was in a ques- bad wav a few days before the Span- | s surrendered. He holds that after > battle of San Juan the American position was not one of peril. Joseph Wheeler, a son of the general, has been commissioned major of the Thirty-fourth Regiment now being re- ! cruited at Denver, Colo. When the Thirty-fourth gets to Manila the Whee. ler family—father. son and daughter— will be in the service of the country at the front. The Southern Pacific train, which brought the cavalry leader from Ogden to this city, was more than two hours late, as usual. The Bicycle Combine. CLEVELAND, July 15.—A. G.

LA S Spectal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, July 15.—A Washing- | ton special to the Journal says: An- other recently developed feature of Captain Carter’s case is that two of the | important witnesses have died. In case. civil suits are brought against Carter or the contractors it is doubtful if they could be convicted, as the evidence given in the court-martial cannot be used in civil proceedings. The statute of limitations is constantly running against the dates at which civil suits can be commenced for sums embezzled from time to time extending over the | period of from ten to twelve years that Carter had charge of the district. It is estimated that at least $400,000, properly recoverable, has escaped by reason of the failure of bringing civil suits. The sum of $25,000 is escaping every month. Politicians and milllons of money are exerting their potent influence to save Carter from punishment. Since his mammoth steal was affirmed by the court of the highest army officers, and the most disgraceful penalty devisable was imposed, a half-score of officers have been court-martialed and dis- missed. Senator Platt is the most conspicuous pleader for executive clemency for Car- ter. He represents capital and politi- cians, PROTESTS AGAINST ROBERTS. | Young People’s Baptist Union Joins the Crusade.

At the night session the report of the committee on resolutions was presented and adopted. The feature of this report was_the following; “That we have cause for concern over the increasing activity of the agents of the Mormon religion and we record our deep chagrin at the election of B. H. Roberts of Utah, an avowed polygamist, to the House of Representatives, and we do most earnestly call upon every Repre- sentative and Senator to use his utmost endeavor to secure the prompt expulsion of this B.
