One of the strongest reasons for the cadets’ contentment is due to the excellent food they are re- ceiving.

Many of the be- lated ones succeeded in doing this, but some were caught and placed in the bridge. The train stopped suddenly. The passengers were badlv jarred and a woman in the Pullman had her knee cut. One of the coaches of the derailed train was the special car of Gov- cer and party. The bridge . ties were torn up and broken nearly length of the long bridge, while the two sleepers were nearly demolished. That the cars did not topplg into the river is remarkable. The passengers were transferred and the train proceeded, leaving the wrecked cars on the bridge to be cleared by the wrecking train from 1 Dunsmuir. This will not be finished till. toward morning.

The first call of reveille sounded at 6:20 o’clock this morning and aroused the tired but eager campers. Ten minutes later the second call was sounded and the minia- ture six-pounder announced that the! Stars and Stripes had been raised on the lofty flagpole. During -the raising of the flag- the regimental band played the na- tional anthem. Breakfast call followed and the entire command marched into the Dolphin baseball grounds and partook of the first breakfast. After breakfast the cadets spruced up their uniforms and accouterments and awaited the sig- nal for guard mounting. That interest- ing ceremony was held in camp, dur- |ing which the band played an appro priate air. Captain 1. D. Dwyer of Com pany D was elected- officer of the day; irst Lieutenant Al Hanlcy officer of the uard, and Second Lieutenant J. H. Shee- han supernumerary officer. The guard was changed also, but the boys who had been on guty during the night postponed their sleep, as they had other plans in view. An’ inspection of camp was the next | order carried out. Surgeon Major Mor- | risey, accompanied by Captain McCarthy, Captain Duffy, Sergeant Major Dorothy | and Hospital Steward Dan Murphy | ed through the camp and cargfuily exam- ined each tent. That the inspection was | entirely satisfactory was apparent in the report submitted to headquarters, which was to the effect that Camp' Fallon was in a sanitary condition. At 10:30 the regiment marched to the | Dolphin bathhouse, where military mass | was celebrated by Father Dempsey. The ceremony was one of the most important and impressive of the day. A temporary | altar had been erected at one end of the | large hall and was decorated with. cut | lowers agd evergreens. .The cadets | marched in companies and took stations | facing the altar and each other. A large | number of residents and visitors to the | city attended the services. Instead of the ical ringing of the bell at the conse- cration and the sanctus the drum rolied. | Sabers were presented at command from | Colonel Sullivan, and the congregation kneeled. At this juncture a member of | Company H, who was overcome by the closeness of the atmosphere in_the hall, | fell to the floor in a faint. With true | military precision he was carried into the outer air by members of the pital | corps. Dr. Morrisey and his as | Dr.” Sullivan, also stepped out and at- | tended the sick soldier. Under their min- istrations he rapidly recovered, and de- spite avowals of being *all right” he was placed on a stretcher and taken to S 5 | the hospital tent. The services, inter- rupted for the moment, proceeded in all solemnity. 2 tion from ther Dempsey read the sel the Epistle and Gospel, which is always given on the eighth Sunday after Pente- cost. At_the conclusion of its reading he ex%lalned its meaning to his listeners, and concluded with some sound advice to the cadets. He abjured them to take heed of their colonel’s orders as to bathing in the surf, and suggested that they not loiter on the street corners and that their conduct in Santa Cruz be that of gentle- men and thus lfl)hold the standard of their organization. He then dismissed the regi- ment and it marched back to camp and broke ranks. " Many of the boys went in swimming and others dressed themselves in duck suits and went cflllin% The bathers -were watched by Dr. Morrisey, a detail from the hospital guard and a special guard to prevent accidents. An immense throng witnessed the dress gara.de of the cadets to-night on the base- all grounds. The grandstand and bleach- ers were crowded. The regiment extended across the park, making a splendid mili- tary showing. The cadets were drilled by Colonel Sullivan. At 8:30 o’clock the regimental band gave a concert in front of the headquarters. Despite the fog there was a large at- tendance. The detail for to-morrow is: Officer of the day, Captain Hopper; officer of the guard, Lieutenant M%one; super- numerary officer, Lieutenant Toohey. r- ing the afternoon the camp was thronged with visitors. The ladies. were enter- tained with singing. Company D boasts two bands. One is known to the regiment as the ‘‘Goo Goos” and the other as McCarthy's sextet. Both make noise enough for the whole camp, and especially during the sleeping hours. . Tne “Gep Goos’ boast of an ac- cordion, two tin whistles, a fife, a har- monica _and a leader. The latter is Ser- fieant McCarthy, and he manages to get armony and the *“Wabash” out of the gang without much effort on his part. Private Brophy of Company N occuples his time in camp reading about treasure ships in periodicals commonly termed “penny dreadfuls.”” Nothing will induce him to forsake his literary pursuits. Lieatenant Crowley of Colonel Sulli- van’s staff has a tie that keeps his tent- mate, Major McGloyn, awake at night. It has nearly caused disruption in the band, as whenever he passes with it sus- pended around his neck the sound of the wind irstruments is drowned. Crowley represented - the Francisco district. While in' the capital he made the acquaintance of Senator Shortridge. The latter presented him with one of the brilliant neck pieces, and now the lieutenant is experimenting on wis campmates. It is more than likely he will be court-martialed for keeping the camp awake. Sergeant Gaughran late of the United States artillery. who brought Company D, up to its present state of perfection in Assembly from a Sanf darill, left ‘Camp Fallon to-night for the city. ) His deéparture was %eenly regretted by the boys, among whom he is extreme- 1y popular. He hapes to return on Satur- day next. The famous organization known as the “Owls,” composed of officers of the reg- iment, held their first seance in the early hours this morning. Captain Bannon of Company C received the first degree of fnitiation, being awakened from sound slumber by being pitched out of his warm cot. The “Owls” have been in existence for the past three camps and during that eriod have had plenty of pleasure stay- ng up late nights and bluffing the guards. An interesting session is promised shortly. when a few more officers are to be in- itiated. There is no need of saying that the initiation is interesting, as the candi date is asked to do many strange things. e following officers compose the organi- zation: Colonel Sullivan, Major McGloyn, Major MecCarthy, Captains Duffy and Monohan, Lieutenants Mahoney, Crowley and Watts and Sergeant “Brindle” Mc- nn. “Pot” Mahoney and Harry W. Crowley, color sergeants of the League of the Cross Cadets, occupy the same tent. Last night Crowley, who acts as guard at the Napa Insane Asylum, dreamed that he was hustling a_patient to his ward, and in his anxiety to carry out his duty he laid vio- lent hands on his sleeping companion and hustled him around the tent until Ma- heneK, awakened by the rough treatment, unched Crowley fn the ribs and brought | im to his senses. ‘“Pot” has applied to the colonel for another tent, giving as a reason for the change that he thinks Crowley is dangerous. Frank Smith, Frank Oneto, Eddie Doolin | and Joe Mohum compose the “Goo Goos.” | They are a happy if not boisterous band. | The original “Owls"” are very much put out over an attempted infringement on | their name by another crowd in camp. | The only ‘“‘Owls” claim that their name has been copyrighted, and vow to sue out a writ of something to prevent the 6ppo- | sition crowd from using its proud title. | The, opposition “Owls” is composed of | members of the band. They are B. Con- | nolly, Frank Pohl, “Bud’ Schofield and J. McIntosh. Colonel Sullivan remained in camp to- day and received visitors. The commander of the cadets is proud of his boys and the order they Kkeep in camp. The concert in Camp Fallon last night was largely attended. The musicians played their best, and an excellent pro- gramme of ({)opular and classical music | was rendered. A Private Keane was around camp vestér- day swearing thathe never dreams. The Call's headquarters tent is one of the popular places in camp. The cadets take pleasure in dropping in and discuss- ing the news of the day. plaint of her uncle.

Over 138 | | guests responded to the invitation to | some, eat, drink, be merry and listen to | sweet music under the starlit es. They | came not only from the surrounding | camps and summer fesorts, but from across the bay as well, and in the ex- cellent music that was rendered for their | entertainment were amply repaid for the | long trip. they had to make in order to | be present.

G AT Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, July 16.—A new treaty | between the United States and Japan goes into effect to-morrow, at which time also new treaties between Japan and nearly all | of the countties of Europe and some of | the South American republics go into ef-l fect. It is an event of far-reaching im- portance in the relations between Japan and the United States, as it does away with the treaty methods which have been in vogue for nearly fifty years, and sub- stitutes an entirely new method of pro- cedure. 1he same is true in the relations of Japan with other countries. Taken as a whole, the many new treaties which go into effect to-morrow will place Japan on an entirely different footing with the world at large, as she is recognized for the first time as an equal in every respect. The treaty with this country was made November 22, 1864, in Washington, be- tween Secretary Gresham and Minister | Kureno, who then represented Japan here. The changes it made were so far- reaching it was determined. the treaty should not go into operation until July 17, 1899. Jutaro Komura, the present Japanese Minister in Washington, was seef at the Japanese Legation to-day and gave an in- teresting outline of the more important -features of this arrangement. He said: The 17th of July marks the turning point in the diplomati¢ history, not only of ‘Japan, but of the Oriental countries in general. It will be.the first instance in which the Western powers have recognized the full sovereignty of an_ Oriental state. This action of the _en | lightened nations of Europe and America shows that if any country is ready to assume a full share in the responsibjlity and affairs of the world at large, these old and enlightened pow- ers are ready to admit such a country to full comity among nations. So we regard the ad- |'vent of this treaty as a very important step not only for Japan but for ail the nations of the East. The countries with which Japan has made new treatles are the United States, Great Brit ain, Germany, France, Russia, Austria, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Swedén and Norway, Switzerland’ and Peru. All df these go into effect to-morrow, except those’ with France and Austria, which’are dge- ferred until August 4. With most of these countries Japan had treaty relations before, but they werdcrude and unsatisfactory. To understand the change, it is necessary to look at the system under the old treaties. This was essentially based on iwo principles, first, that foreign residents in Japan shall enjby thé privileges of extra territoriality, that is, they should be amenable to the laws and jurisdic- tion of the Consul of thefr own country and Dot to Japanese jurisdiction, and second, that foreign residents in Japan shall be confined to certain open ports, outside of which foreigners could not reside, own property, or engage in trade. The result was in effect about fifteen or sixteen systems of courts in Japan, for the purpose of trying foreigners Who committed offenses in Japan. Furthermore, most of the powers clalmed that Japanese laws were not binding upon foreigners. For instance, take ‘While it protected us agalnst our own people, yet there was no pro- tection in the case of an Infected foreign ship. The only exception to this refusal to récogni: Japanese law was the United States, whic recognized from the first the binding force of the Japanese law. ; e of the bad.effects of this system was that foreign residents had entire immunity from tgxation. The Japanese paid all the taxes. All this has now disap| and for- eigners have the same .priyileges as well as the same obligations as the Japanese citizens, no more and no less. The first step in the new system s to put an end to the old fetion of extra-territoriality, by which forejgn clti- 2ens were judged by & different standard {rom apanese. he second essential thing is the opening’ of the entire interior of Japan to foreign resi- dents wnd, trads. - Until pow thers have been only. five treaty ports, Yokol A Kobe, Hakodate and Nigata. In those places foreigners had been able to live, to purchase property and to trade, but outiide of them hey ocould not even travel without a’special permit. These five places are an insignificant part of Japan. of the empire, with its populous cities and in- yiting fields of industry, is thrown open to foreigners. They may live anywhere, engage in any kind of business and will be assured of the same protection to life and property that is given to the Jq&-neu. & In bringing about:the new system of ‘treaties Henceforth the entire interior | Japan haturally feels most friendly toward the United States, because she always has shown a most sympathetic interest in Japan's desire to adopt modern methods and to deal on even | terms with the rest of the world. The mes- | sages of several of the Presidents have spoken in most friendly terms of ‘this matter. And s0, as the Government and people of the United States have taken such a friendly interest un- der the old systém, I hope and believe the United States Government and péople will take 4 most friendly interest in the carrying out of the new treaty. T ) MINERS DEPORTED UNDER A PROTEST Came to This Country Under Viola- tion of Contract Labor Laws. CHICAGO, July 16.—Fifteen Austrian coal ‘miners that are being deported from Rathburne, Iowa, to Croatian homes on the charge of having violated the contract labor law, left Chicago for the East to- day. Consul-General Nubar of the Aus- tria-Hungary empire was at the station | to invesjigate the rumor that the men ‘were being unjustly returned to thefr na- tive land.
