The Presidio presents a rather deserted appearance since the departure of the Forty-ninth Regiment. the last of the vol- unteers to leave for Manila. The only troops remaining on the reservatign are the few cavalrymen and artillerymen comprising the s less than 15 recruits in the casualty camp. The garrison will be somewhat augmented in a few days by the arrival of twen five men of Battery D, Third Artillery, who are marching to this city from Sequoia Park, where they have been doing guard duty since last spring. The detachment is commanded by Sec- ond Lieutenant Henry B. Clark and Was| attached to the garrison at San Diego pre- vious to being ordered to the park. Their services are much needed at the Presidio, and for that reason they are coming here instead of returning to San Diego. There | are two 12-inch rifles on aisappearing car- riages yet to be mounted at the Presidio | and this work will be do; by the artil-| lery at the post without unnecessary de- lay. All the guns for which emplace- ments have been built at Fort Point and | Fort Baker are now on the ground, but owing to the small force of artillerymen | at those points the work of mounting | them will require considerable time, e: pecially at Fort Baker, where the d tachment of ten men on duty is hardly sufficlent for guard duty alone. The quartermaster's department at the Presidio is busily engaged in caring for | the movable equipment of the volunteer camps, such as stoves, Kitchen utensil ete. The tents will not be taken dow until they are thoroughly dried, in conse- quence of which the deserted canvas vil- lages will in all probability not be wholly dismantled for some weeks, Acting Assistant Surgeons George L. | Painter, Charles W. Farr, Clarence H. Long and Henry H. Brown, U. 8. A., who have been ordered to Manila, have been assigned to temporary duty at the gen- eral hospital at the Presidio. Captain Alexander B. Dyer has been re- | lieved from duty as recruiting officer at | this point, and the {nl\nl’h\g officers have | been ordered to report In San Fran | for recruiting duty: Lieutenant Cq William T.
