Contract Surgeon in Trouble. —— Employes of the 0 on going to at 7 a. m. yesterday found Thomas Ashe lying unconscious in one of the corrals He was carried to the post hospital, where | on examination it was found that no | bones were broken. His chest was bruised and greatly discolored. He remalned in an unconscious state all day and nothing could be learned as to how he was in- jured. The doctors fear he is hurt in- " His fellow-teamsters think he cked by one of the horses. Cannon, a private of Company F, | ry, an inmate of the gen- | ¥. eral hos , suffering from a wound in the leg, was allowed to leave the Pre- idio on Friday night. In some unac- ountable manner his crutch slipped, throwing him to the ground, breaking the already injured leg. Siege Battery O is in camp at the Pre- sidio, under command of Captain J. R. Willlams, First Lieutenant C. C. Hearn and Second Lieutenant F. R. They | brought with them sixty-fiv and | sixty-five_heavy draft horses. to transport the four i-inch howitzers, h of which, | ready for service, weighs 900 pounds. Sixty stewards and privates of the Hos pital Corps from various parts of the East were sent to Fort McDowell this morn- ing awalting transportation abroad. Dr. Rowe, a contract surgeon lately ar- rived here from Manila, was ordered un- der arrest this morning by Major Girard, surgeon in charge of the General Hos- | pital. The doctor had been indulging too | freely and amused himself by taking off his blouse, putting it on any of the col- ored troopers who happened to be near and then saluting him. This all happened in the saloons just outside the entrance to the Presidio and soon came to the ears of Lieutenant Collins, who sent an am- bulance for the bibulous medico, who was placed under arrest. He will, in all prob- ability, be sent to his home in Utah. The new steam-heating apparatus at the General Hospital will be in operation for the first time to-morrow. WILL STRONGLY OPPOSE SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION Call Issued for Mass Meeting of Parehts to Protest Against Board’s Action. A circular has been issued to all parents and others opposed to the recent action of the Board of Education in transferring | primary pupils from the Pacific Heights School to the Grant or any other school and ‘“‘consolidating’ the Frlmmu upils of the Grant School into the 1fic Helghts or any other school, thus 3 overcrowding ihe Pacific Helghts Sehool, Those notified are requested to meet at | ploye ot the Union Iron Works, on the | to Be Repeated.

Once more the Supreme Court has de- cided that a man cannot be imprisoned for debt. Charles Scheper sued his wife Lizzie for divorce, and pending the liti- gation Superior Judge Dunne ordered him to glve his wife $55 alimony and counsel fees. Scheper being poor and dependent upon his manual labor for his daily bread was unable to comply with the order, but the Judge committed him to prison until he did as directed, whether he was able or not. Scheper sought relief by habeas (uvTus in the Supreme Court, where he told the story of his povery. e was im- mediately discharged | From All Parts of the World. The sale of the Famous Nathan-Dohr- mann collection of Art Goods, embracing Statuary, Bronzes, Vases, Clocks, etc., | which begins to-morrow morning is at- tracting wide attention among lovers of | art.

BETRAYED THE CONFIDENCE REPOSED BY EMPLOYER Joseph Arnheim Stole Watches and Jewels to Get Money to Play Poker. J. M. Strauss of the Star Loan Office Fourth street, took a trip East last Apr and left Joseph Arnheim in charge of his | 1 ; | EREREEERRARE SR store. He returned a few days ago and soon discovered that something was wrong. Thursday he notified Captain Seymour of h icions and the cap- tain detailed Detectives O'Dea and Rior- dan on the case. They saw Arnheim, and after being questioned he confessed that he had betrayed the confidence of his em- ployer. Arnheim had taken watches and rings | from the store from time to time and pawned them, and from the pawn tickets in his possession the detectives recovered ten men's gold watches, two ladies’ gold watches, a silver watch and three dia- mond rings. The total amount received by Arnheim on these articles was 3200 o0, There are other articles vet o be re: covered. The total value of the goods stolen is about $1000. —_—— ““The Higher Ground.” The Rev. 8. Goodenough will deliver a lecture in the Temple, 117 Turk street, on Sunday, the 12th inst., at 8 p. m.

There is little on the surface save diplomacy, but the emblematic gentleman, with the pyrotechnic coat and trousers, has ‘“a move on,” the speed of which compares well with that which whipped Spain in less than a hundred days. Of course the activity.in transport ser- vice s noticeable, but it is not generally known that the demands upon the rail- road comparies, not only transcontinen- tal but those in the Western States, is so great that It is almost impossible to han- die the traffic. There are thousands of troops on the rall now, bound for San Francisco, but the freight trains bearing commissary supplles and the munitions of war are not announced. A great part of these supplies are drawn from the warehouses of Chickamauga, where the Government stored up vast stocks of food to feed the thousands of hungry soldiers who went to Cuba to punish the haughty dons. These supplies are now being brought forward and sent to the land of the Mongol to sustain the men who are destined to teach a painful lesson to the misguided Asiatic. The Government has several warehouses in this eity, but they are all full to over- flowing, and there is great difficulty in handling the Government traffic. The heavy artillery is here and ready to go forward, and the regular army troops are well on their way to this port, the under- standing being that there will be no delay in their departure. Large quantities of supplies are coming from the East, These include about forty cars of canned ’ocdl every thirty days. the capacity of each car being 40,000 nds. It should not be understood that pou the railroad and stelmshiq activity is confined to this port, for it is not.
