Young Men in Military Service ‘Will Have to Go to School WASHINGTON, July 22. — Secretary Root before leaving Washington to-day is- sued the following: With the reduction of the Philippine force and the withdrawal from Cuba the army is called upon to resume its most important work in time of peace—the work of perfecting itself in military science and skill and in promoting the position of the United States against future wars. 1 wish to call your attention to the conditions which now require especial effort and zeal on your part in the performance of e declaration of war with Spain in 1898, there have been appointed in the line of the army 1542 lieutenants, in addition to 276 appointed from the Military Academy. Of ‘these, 616 were appointed from officers of volunteers under the act of February 2, 1901; 414 were appointed from the enlisted men of the regular and volunteer armies and 512 were appotnted from civil life. The abandonment of the military schools for commissioned officers, which followed the em- ployment of the entire army in active military operations, has left these 1542 new lleutenants substantially without any means of acquiring a systematic military education. of the former officers of volunteers have ac- quired the most valuable experience by active service In the fleld, yet it is of great impor- tance to them, as well as to the untrained | appointees from civil life and from the ranks, | that they shall have an opportunity for broad and thorough training, both practical and the- oretical, under competent masters in the art of war whom our army is able to supply. Congress has now with wise liberality made rovision for the reopening of the army schools, given its sanction to the general system military cducation embodied In the general last, including the en- of order of November 27 largement and development of the Fort Leav- enworth school into a general service and staff college, the establishment of the war college | at Washington with suitable bulldings and tne rebuilding of the engineer school; and has made ample appropriations for these purposes. Every effort will be made by the War Col- lege Board, which has general supervision and | charge of ‘the whole system, to bring its ad- vantages to the new officers of the army as epeedily as possible and to organize officers’ | nsiderable posts without ask for hearty co-operation with 'm on the part of every officer of the army. 2 graduates of the Military Acad- ing commissions.

No less than 200 individual desks have been ordered for the use of the, repre- sentatives from each State. In order to get an idea of the vast number of persons who will visit San Francisco upon this occasion, it must be remembered that there are more than %000 lodges in the order of the Knights of Pythias in the United States and Canada and provinces, all of which will be repre- sented, From letters received it is cer- tain that many of the visiting Knights will be accompanied by their wives and families and, moreover, the rate that has Leen given by the railroads wiil doubt- less induce a large number outside the order to make the trip to this city. Naturally, many of the visiting Knights and their families will prefer to be quar- tered with private familles during their stay here and this, it is suggested, will afforé to many San Francisco house- wives an opportunity to add to their pin money. ACCOMMODATION NEEDED. Those desirous of offering accommoda- tion, which is much needed, may, there- fore, communicate at once with Mr. Col- burn, room 1013, Claus Spreckles build- ing, who will place on record all such applications. The hotel committee is ex- ercising the utmost caution that the visi- tors may be sure they shall be placed in the most_desirable quarters. Local Pythians say that in view of the reputation that San Francisco has always enjoyed among Eastern people as a cily where persons may llve exceedingly weil at a very reasonable cost, and also in the anticipation that numerous families vill come to the city having in mind the probability of becoming permanent resi- | dents, it will be to the advantage of all concerned if regular rates prevail during the convention, and the committees hupe belleve that San Franciscans will realize the importance of moderation in charges. In addition to the 3000 Knights Loyal, or members of the Uniform Rank, who will be quartered at the Mechanics' Pa- vilion, about 9000 will be cared for in tents. By the special bill that passed both branches of Congress at Washington just before adjournment the order has been granted the use of 1000 army tents, which will be erected on all vacant lots adja- cent to the Pavilion. Committees from Sacramento and Fresno arrived yesterday morning with the object of getting space .for an ex- hibit of their county products, and were cordially received by Charles L. Patton. The Fresno people told Mr. Patton that they intend distributing 100,000 half-pound boxes of raisins broadcast among the visitors. Other arangements made are for daily excursions on the bay and raiflroads to nearby points of interest. EXHIBITS ARRIVING.

Committees- representing several inte- rior counties were in the city yesterday making arrangements for exhibits. Sac- ramento County sent a_delegation rep- resenting the Board of Supervisbrs, and decided upon reserving a space which was selected. Placer County gave notice that it will occupy six booths with its exhibits of county resources. Manager Murray also received word that Frank Wiggins, secretary of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, is coming here to arrange for a fine exhibit in the nave rep- resentative of the Southern California counties. - Stanislaus County will certainly have the south end of the nave. At the north end it is not unlikely that the organ that has been made for the new church struci- ure of Calvary Presbyterian Church of this city will be placed by the manufa~- turer. Manager McMurray has arranged that the two large floral arches across the nave through which passengers for and from the ferries will pass shall be freshened with cut flowers every day.

James T. Boyd has filed a motion in the United States District Court to sub- stitute’ Susan Hays, John C. Hays, Betty B. McMullin, T. C. Boyd, Arthur G. Gif- ford and James T. Boyd, successors in | interest of the deceased confirmees of the | Peralta land grant as intervenors in the suit. has opposed the motion on the ground that the whole case had been finally pass- ed upon by the Supreme Court of the United States in favor of the Government. Judge Beatty has granted the motion, however, subject to the objections of ‘Woodworth to be argued at a later date. The suit involves the title to the water- front of Oakland and a portion of the waterfront of Alameda, worth several millions of dollars. The title of the Peraltas to a large tract of land in Ala- meda County was confirmed to the claim- ants many years ago by United States District Judge Hoffman and affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States. Then Mary E. H. Gwin, as successor in interest to the Peraltas, claimed all the land on the exterior boundaries of the grant between high and low water marks on the bay of San Francisco and San An- tonio creek. Judge Hawley in the Unit- ed States District Court decided two years ago that the boundaries of the Peralta grant extended outwardly only to the high water mark and that the land un- covered at low tide beyond the hign water mark belonged to the State. The State has disposed of all the tide lands in | dispute to the Southern Pacific Company and others. Boyd's motion is taken as an indication that he proposes to attempt to reopen the old contest. — e Railroad Employe Is Killed. ‘W. Z. Brown of 810 Louis street, Oak- land, died in the Southern Pacific Hos- pital yesterday morning from concussion of the brain. On June 28 Brown was in the roundhouse at West Oakland ‘“‘wip- ing” an engine and was struck on tha head with an iron hoe thrown from tune cab by some person unknown. Brown's body was taken to the morgue yesterday and the matter was reported to the police. Detective Hamill was detailed to Investi- fi(s ihe affair.

The Pacific Coast Horticultural Society met last night at Mission Opera Hail and completed arrangements for the flower show which is to be held In the nave of the Ferry building August 14, 15 and 16. Satisfactory reports were received from | the varioys committees in charge of the | work and the coming exhibition bids fa.r to be the most successful ever given by | the society. A choice collection of pansies was ex- | hibited by amateur and professional flor- | ists at the meeting last night. Nine new members applied for admission to the | soclety. The eommittee voted its thanks | to W. J. Sanders of Niles for his hospi tality to the members at, thelr recent | outing on his premises. A’short musical | programme concluded the meeting. ELECTRIC AND TELEPHONE WIRES TO BE SEPARATED | e | Coroner’s Jury Makes a Recommen- | dation to the Board of Supervis- ors in the Burns Case. A recommendation was made yesterday by a Coroner’s jury to the Board of Su- pervisors to prohibit the maintenance on the same poles of telephone and electric | light wires. The case was that of Robert | K. Burns, a lineman, who was killed on | Sutter street near Octavia on July 9 by a shock of electricity. The verdict was that death was accidentally caused by a shock | induced by a light tension electrical cur- rent. The following was the recommen- dation: “We, the jury, recommend that the Board of Supervisors pass an ordinance that electric light and telephone wires should not be placed upon the same poles, | and in cases where it is absolutely neces- | sary to do so that.the wires be placed at such -distance apart as will ensure the | safety of workmen having business | around such wires.” | In the case of Dorothea Tiédemann, the German teacher who jumped ,off the fer- ! ryboat Encinal Monday afternoon the ! Jury returned a verdict of suicide while | temporarily insane. Verdicts of accidental death were re- turned in the casés of Michael Burke of 134 Fourth street, killed by falling from a wagon July 6; Raymond Northern of 2538 McAllister street, killed July 11 by falling through the hatch of the steamer Aztec: James T. Hill of 24 Bluxome street, as- phyxiated by gas July 5, and John Ruck- ert, rigger, 229 Twenty-seventh street, killed July 8 by falling from a scaffole. | Verdicts of suicide were recorded in the cases of Robert Kiddie, cabinet maker, 517 | Howard street, who took carbolic acid July 7, and Joseph Wurn who cut an ar- serly 11?' his wrist at the German Hospital uly 19. e L A e Small Girl Tells Strange Story. Mary, the 11-year-old daughter of Guido Egleng of 1046 Folsom street, visited the offices of the Associated Charities and the Soclety for the Prevention of Cruelty to | Children yesterday with a story that she had been kidnaped by some inese and kept in Chinatown for four days. Her father, who is a herb doctor, affirms the truth of the girl's statements. No cred- ence is placed in the story by the charity officials or by the police. ™ I | Lodge of the Daughters of St. BRITAIN'S 50N HOLD A MEETING Twelfth Annual Session _of Grand Lodge of St. George.

He reported that he had during ..s term visited all the lodges but the one in greatest um number of members. There was a ruling to the eftect that natives of Wales are eligible to member- ship if, upon application, they declare themselves Englishmen.
