Colonel Enoch H. Crowder, judge ad- vocate, United States army, and mem- ber of the general staff, who was re- cently appointed head of the United + States military attaches to the Japa- nese army, arrived from Washington vesterday and is at the Palace. His first duty after arrival was to call upon General MacArthur, and later he vis- ited his West Point classmate, Major Parker W. West. Colonel Crgwder is a man of serious mein, thoughtful and quiet and about 45 years of age. He graduated from West Point in 1881. In speaking of his pres- ent detail Colonel Crowder said: “I shall sail for Tokio on Saturday, in company with Captain March, and there we shall be joined by the other two members of our party. We shall expect to be allowed to go to the best points of vantage to view the progress of the war. We are sent to learn, and go merely as observers to report the methods employed, that our army may profit by them. You may say for me, if you choose, that I have no opinion to express as to the probable duration of the war. We shall try to cover the en- tire field of military operation. I be- lieve we shall receive every facility for so doing—facilities equal to those our Government extended to the Japanese during the Spanish-American war.” On leaving West Point Colonel Crow- der went into the Eighth Cavalry, since which time he has advanced to his present high position. In 1895 he was appointed judge advocate and went to the Philippines as soon as the war broke out. There he became an Asso- ciate Judge of the Supreme Court. He was afterward made military secretary under General E. 8. Otis. He framed the laws that were promulgated during the military administration, and was chief adviser in legal matters pertain- ing to the ownership of the different properties on the islands. Colonel Crowder’s knowledge of the law was of great value to the officials at the time they were attempting to introduce the civil government. Colonel Crowder was the author of the Criminal Code, which is still the code of the islands. In June, 1901, he was made brigadier general of volunteers as a reward f&® his services. Colonel Crowder continued to act as judge advocate until the Philippine Commission took full charge, on July 4, 1901, when he returned to this coun- try. He is now senior colonel of the judge advocate’s court in Washington. During the war in South Africa when the Boers made a complaint to our Government that the British Govern- ment had established a military camp at Port Chalmette, ten miles from New Orleans, for the purposes of purchasing horses and mules for the English army, Colonel Crowder was sent to investi- gate. His report to the President was to the effect that while officers of the British army were buying horses at that point there had been no violation of the neutrality laws. The incident aroused much comment in this country among the sympathizers of the Boers. Captain P. Hegardt of Stockholm, a member of the royal Swedish general staff, arrived here yesterday from Eu- rope and is registered at the California. He is on his way to the Orient to wit- ness the maneuvers of the hostile fotces, and bears credentials for that purpose from the King of Sweden. —_—————————— JEWISH FESTIVAL WILL BE FITTINGLY CELEBRATED Hebrew Social Club te Give Masquer- ade Ball in Honor of Feast of Purim.

CIVES NOTICE T0 THE BANKS Secretary Shaw Issues Call for Money to Make Payment to Panama Canal Company WASHINGTON, March 3.—Secretary Shaw has notified all special national bank depositories, including those of New York City, that they will be re- quired to pay, on account of the Pan- ama canal purchase, 20 per cent of their holdings of Government funds on or before March 25. The 20 per cent aggregates about $30,000,000, leaving about $20,000,000 to be supplied from the treasury. It has been decided hereto- fore to have the depository national banks in New York City pay their in- dividual proportions over to the New York Sub-Treasury at once to meet at this time the payment due Panama, and Jater to pay the new canal com- pany at Paris the $40,000,000 due it by calls on national bank depositories outside New York City. In view, how- ever, of news received from Paris later in the day, to the effect that the French company would call a meeting of its directors and carry out the formalities necessary to the transfer of the title of the property to the United States, it ‘was thought best to make the two pay- ments to the canal company and to the republic of Panama concurrently about April 1. —_—————— Of Interest to People of the Coast.

They contained a speech of Mr. Clayton printed in a section of the Congressional Record, and a number of other documents which were declared to be semi-official, one bearing a portrait of General Nelson A.

PETERSBURG, March 3.—For the first time since the emancipation of the serfs in 1861 the anniversary to-day was officially observed through- out the empire as a general holiday and with special services in the churches. The newspapers took oc- casion to review the reforms intro- duced by Czar Alexander III—who, by a stroke of his pen, freed 23,000,000 serfs—declaring that the present cel- ebration may be regarded as a turning point in Russian history, marking the recognition of a wider freedom in na- | tional life, the realization of which is| not far distant, provided the nation properly exerts the influences that have been so unexpectedly united by | the war. At the big central market of St. Petersburg thousands stood in the open alr, uncovered, joining in the chanting of a te deum. Several Russian sculptors have gone to the Far on the spot. This is believed to be the first attempt of the kind. The Government takes the view that the Japanese-Korean treaty Is in di- rect contradiction to the Anglo-Jap- anese convention, the Russo-French declaration and all preceding interna tional agreements proclaiming Ko- rea’s independence, and that, as it was drawn up under duress, it cannot have legal force. The landing of 2500 Japanese at Songchin, Korea, on February 19, re-| ported by Major General Pflug, chief of staff of Viceroy Alexieff, is belleved here to be the origin of the recent re- ports of a Japanese landing at Pos- siet Bay, and is considered to be aif attempt to outflank the Russian ad- vance on the Yalu River. REBELLIOUS GIRL STUDENTS. ST. PETERSBURG, March 3.—The offended dignity of 167 girl students of 1000 who attend the university ex- tension classes has resulted indirectly e st to model war types | | in closing the university temporarily ;and in the partial closing of the tech- | nological institute. The incident which i led to these results shows the excitable | nature of students of both sexes. More than 800 of the girls joined a | few days ago in Issuing an address of | loyalty. The remaining 167 young | women, who had not been consulted, | held a meeting after the address had | been sent in and protested, first, be- | cause the address had been presented i in the name of the entire girl student l body, and, secondly, because the term | “pupil” instead of “student” had been used in the wording. The resentment of the 167 girls grew | as the meeting progressed, until there | developed an extravagant proposal to send a message of congratulations to the Mikado. It was finally resolved, however, not to attend further lec- | tures, and, the resolutions to this end having been transmitted to the. direc- tors as unanimous action, the classes were closed. This action, however, was immediately rescinded when it was dis- covered that the resolutions did not | emanate from the entire student body. STORIES OF ROUGH ENCOUNTERS In the meantime the recalcitrants had aroused the sympathy of some of the | male students of the university, who called a meeting. This ended in fac- tional disturbances and rough encoun- ters, with the resuit that the directors temporarily closed the university on account of the disorder. Notice of the girls’ protest having been posted in the Men's Technical In- | stitute the disgust of a Jewish student was aroused, and he tore down the | document. A few hotheads rebuked him for this act of intolerance, where- | upon a quarrel arose, and the Jew struck one of his opponents. Other | Jews joined in to defend their col- | league. The stewards tried vainly to ! separate the combatants, wherempon | both sides turned upon and fought the stewards. When the fighting was over the stewards resigned. | et HARDWARE MEN OPPOSE | ENJOYS RECITATION OF THE PARCELS POST BILL “MERCHANT OF VENICE” Convention Wil Endeavor to Have the Measure Now Before Congress Defeated. Emphatic action against the bill now before Congress for the establishment of a parcels post was the most note- worthy step of general interest taken at yesterday’s meeting of the California State Retail Hardware Association, held at the California Hotel. An over- whelming majority of the members present opposed the attempt to make Uncle Sam a carrier of merchandise in packages larger than he handles under | existing laws. They agreed in declar- ing that the bill, if it should pass, would work great injury not omly to the hardware trade. but to all lines of merchandising in the State. by put- ting the local retailers at the mercy of the great catalogue houses in the | larger cities. President Sites was instructed to bring this action to the attention of California Senators and Represent- atives in Congress. ‘The convention discussed many mat- ters of trade interest at its two ses- sions yesterday. The report of the ex- ecutive committee was taken up sec- tion by section, and its recommenda- tions for a progressive and aggressive organization of the hardware trade was adopted with few changes. It was de- cided to employ a salaried organizer, whose duties shall be, as far as pos- sible, to enroll all the retail hardware merchants in the State as members of the association, with a view toward mutual benefit and better business methods. While the proposed joint meeting between the retailers and wholsalers was not held, owing to lack of time, the convention adjourned with hearty expressions of good will and harmcny towards the jobbing interest and the declared purpose of co-opera- tion with the wholesalers’ organization. Fisher's Theater last night surren- dered to the association, more than 500 | seats having been reserved for the hardware men and = their women friends. hits at all prominent members and cre- ated immense enthusiasm and laughter. The leading actors received floral pres- ents in strict keeping with the char- acter of the occasion. K There were flower pleces in the shape of nail kegs, wash boilers, coffee pots, coal scuttles and other commodities dealt in by the merchants, and the comedians gave back no end of chaff in return for these tributes of esteem. e Matrons and Seamstresses Wanted.

Owing to the large attend- ance it was found necessary to have the recital in the First Unitarian Church instead of the church hall, { Mrs. C. E. Grunsky introduced Dar- rach, who was accorded a flattering reception before he began his recital, and at the close he was given a hearty | verdict for his masterly interpretation of Shakespeare’s remarkable play. He took the five acts and imper- sonated each of the characters, with a short explanation preceding each im- portant scene to make up for the lack of stage accessories. Mr. Darrach is powerful as an inter- preter. He is intelligible and easily fol- lowed, and this to the student of the bard of Avon means much. It was noticeable that besides the members of the auxiliary there were numerous juveniles in the audience, some of whom had copies of Shake- speare and studiously followed the text and Mr. Darrach. There will be a recital on Wednesday night, March 9, when “Julius Caesar” will be given, and Saturday morning, March 12, at 10:30 o’clock the third and last recital will be “The Comedy of Errors.” | | | | —_——— BESTOW PRAISE ON WORK OF REV.
