S Arrival of the Twenty-Eighth Regi- ment From Fort Meade—Sail- ing of Transports and Clearing of Camps. i~ Minnesota boys will be mustered the service to-day, but they will > paid until to-morrow, a fact that v caused a riot in the camp yester- day. It has been the desire of the Governor and the people of the State that the regi- ment arrive in Minneapolis in time to meet the President when he reaehes there October 13. For that reason an at- tempt was made to have the muster out of the regiment delayed from October 3 to October 5, but in this the Minnesota delegation was unsuccessful. The date for the muster out was set for October 3, nd the men had no thought but that they would be paid on the same day as were other commands. There was great excitement therefore when it was an- nounced yesterday morning that there would be no money until Wednesday. There was a howl of disappointment and at once the men gathered around Colonel Ames’ tent and demanded the rea- sons for the delay. They declared they on had to meet their bills this evening, as so in the ex ation promptly; a 1 wanted money in their pockets on the first night of thelr frecdom, and the believed they were entitled to it.

The sailing of the Charles Nel- son and Glenogle last Sunday finished up a great deal of work, but the rush will be on again in a few days. The New- port, Pennsylvania and Tartar should ar- Manila this week, while the landia and City of Para are cheduled to sail Thursday. About 6000 men all told will arrive and depart. The Para will take away a regiment and another will go on the Zealandia and Valencia. The Newport, Tartar and Pennsylvania W bring home about two regiments be- t n them. The Pennsylvania with the Washington boys left Yokohama on Sep- tember 18 and should get here to-morrow or Thursdgy. The Glenogle, which sailed away Sunday, took away the material for twenty-five miles of railroad. Down in the Philippines Uncle Sam only controls about thirty miles of the road out of Ma- nila. Another road s to be constructed into the heart of the enemy's country, and this will give General Otis two bases of operation. It is the material for this road that the Glenogle is carrying. There is no change in the boilermak- ers’ strike. The men still insist upon eight hours’ work and ten hours’ pay on the transports and the contractors will not glve more than ten hours’ pay for nine hours’ work. The locked-out men held a number of meetings, but nothing was decided upon except to hold out to the bitter end. The bay presents a very different ap- pearance just now to what it did a week ago. At that time there were very few ain ships in the bay; now there are a round dozen of them.

MINISTERS MEET IN WEEKLY SESSION At the Congregational ministers’ meet- ing yesterday morning Rev. Edgar H. Libby of Chicago read a paper on “Preaching of To-day and Preaching for To-day.” He made a plea for evangelical preaching of the old Gospel. He said the tendency of to-day was toward the beati- fication of humanity and not the beatifica- tion of Jesus Christ. He was opposed to this and desired that ministers should re- turn to the old methods. The forty-third annual meeting of the Congregational General Association of California, which has not been held here for some years, will take place in the First Congregational Church on October 24 and will be in session until the 27th inst. Rev. J. R. Knowdell will preach the an- nual sermon. Rev. M. H. Alexander read a paper at the Methodists' weekly meeting on ‘‘The Plan of Salvation.” In the general discus- sion of the subject the following took part: Revs. E. Simmonds, 8. M. Wood- ward, Chaplain Macomber, E. Dennett, F. D. Bovard, Clopper and W, S. Urmy. The following officers were elected for the ensuing term: President, Rev. T. H. Woodward; vice president, Rev.
