Men Pleased that Gen. Greene Is
to Be the Commander.
TROOPS IN HIS COMMAND.
Brigadier General Greene to Command
—-Fourth United States Cavalry 0r-
dered Ready For Service in the Phil-
ippines—Possible That the Red Cross
Society Will Send a Ship Along in the
Future.
San Francisco, June 8.—The men who
will compose the second Manila expe-
- dition are pleased that Brigadier Gen-
eral Greene is to be their commander.
Besides being a splendid soldier, he
has a record as a diplomat and mana-
ger of business enterprises. He has
been decorated in Europe for bravery,
is an author of repute and an active
member bf several scientific societies.
It is surmised that his diplomatic ex—
perience will be of service to General
Merritt in the government of the Phil-
ipplnes.
The troops which will be under his
command are the First Colorado vol-
unteers, the Tenth Pennsylvania vol-
unteers, part of the Eighteenth and
Twenty-third United States infantry,
' and either the Utah Light Artillery or
the Third United States Artillery.
General Greene visited the camp of
the Tenth Pennsylvania. regiment, and,
before making himself known to any
of the officers of the regiment, inspec-
ted the company street-s, visited the
cook tents, looked in at the guard house
and examined the hospital. He then
introduced himself to Colonel Hawkins
and spent nearly an hour in the camp,
seeing about the road, asking about the
condition of the regiment, asking about
rthe health of the men, their proficiency
in drill and the amount and kind ‘of
drilling to which they were daily sub-
jected. General Greene stated that the
China would ‘be his flagship and that
General Merritt would not accompany
the second expedition.
Fourth Cavalry to Go.
Orders have been received at the Pre-
sidio for the Fourth United States Ca‘v-
alry to make ready for service in the
Philippines. The instructions given to
Colonel Morris were to have six troops
go to Manila within two weeks. He
answered that the men . Were ready
now. It was finally decided that the
cavalrymen should'take horses to the
number of 400. If the animals are
transferred without much loss and
stand the climate in the islands, an-
other regiment of cavalry; will proba-
bly be sent on later.
The court martial appointed by Ma-
jor General Otis has organized, with
Colonel G. B. Patton, First Nebraska,
president, and Lieutenant Bener Smith
judge advocate. One or the most in-
teresting cases that will come before
the court will be that of John Camp—
bell, officer in the Tenth Pennsylvania,
who has been under arrest ever since
the regiment left Mount Gretna, Pa.,
for the alleged cutting of the breeches
of a negro striker who belonged to
Company C of the Pennsylvania Artil-
lery, which was then camped at Mount
Gretna. ~
General Merritt has ordered Company
F of the Washington volunteer regi-
ment to go to Angel island for garrison
duty. It is only a temporary assign
ment, as the company has been prom-
ised it will be allowed to go to Manila
in case its regimen‘. is orderel to that
place. .
The total amount subscribel to the
Red Cross Society of California is now
$39,120. Thirteen thousand bandages
for the troops going to Manila have
been packed, and ,7,000 more will be
ready by the time the next expedition
sails. The women of the entire state
are taking an active interest in the
movement. Boxes of oranges are
daily received from the southern and
central counties. The Sum Yup Chin-
ese Society has contributed $122 to the
fund. .
A Hospital Ship.
The Red Cross Society of Oakland is
agitating for the purchase of a hospital
ship to be sent to Manila. .It would
cost about $300,000. The National So-
ciety, it is reported,.will sanction the
plan. .
The City ofPara, due from Panama
yesterday, is likely to be one of the
third fleet of transports to leave the
city. '

London, June 8.——A dispatch to the
Times from Manila, referring to the
fighting of May 30 and J une 1, says the
Spanish loss in killed, wounded and ,
prisoners was heavy. But, the corre-
spondent adds, the most serioui feature
of all for Spain is the defection of nun-
dreds of native auxiliaries. He adds:
“One native regiment deserted after
killing its oflicers and massacreing a
company of Spanish infantry, and reb-
els and former rebel-s on both sides
have-been shot because they were sus-
pected of treachery to their respective
generals.
“The Spaniards are endeavoring by
every means to retain the rebels, who
are attracted by promises of pardon
and high oflices.
“But General Aguinaldo’s attraction
is stronger. He has completely sur-
rounded Manila bv cutting the rail-
roads and holding the rivers by whiéh
food had previously reached the city.
If the city is not starved into surren-
der the rebels may carry it, Having
now an increasing number of rifles and
field guns.
“General Aguinaldo’s treatment of
the Spanish prisoners-is exemplary.
Few excesses are reported except
where priests were mutilated before
being- killed.
“Admiral Dewey is not assisting the
rebels, but it is prObably due to him
that Aguin-aldo’s forces avoidexcesses.
“Foreigners, with the except-ion of the
French nuns, remain in Manila, but are
ready to board the refugee. steamers as
soon as necessity arrives.
CHEERS FOR NEW HAVEN CREWS.
They Will Leave for New Land. In Quarters
fro-Morrow.
Cambridge, Mass, June 8.—Harvard’s
’va’rsity and freshman crews rowed
over the Charles river course yesterday
afternoon for the. last time this season.
To-day both crews leave for New
London, where they will at once begin
training for the big race.
If cheering has anything to do w'”
a victory, the Crimson oarsmen will
make a. creditable showing this year.
No less than 1,500 men formed in the
yard, and, headed by the Harvard
band, marched to the river to give the
men a send off. ‘
The ’varsity
while cheers were sent up‘for each in-
dividual in the crew and for both
crews collectively. Coach Lehmann
was given three times three repeatedly.
as was also Mr. V‘Villls. After the cheer-
ing the band again led the procession
and the men marclled back to the yard
where they concluded their enthusias-
tic celebrations.
The final order of the crew as rowed
was as follows: I'l-obyns, stroke; Laid-
dle, No. 7; Perkins, No. 6; Harding. No.

Report To-l)ay.
'Washington, June 8.—The confrerees
of the two houses of Congress on the
war revenue bill resumed their. sitting
promptly at 10 o‘clock yesterday. ‘

committee is— determined to conclude
its work promptly and that he report
will be presented before the close of
the present week.

noon, Senator Allison expressed the
opinion that it Would be able to report

ing made, but that it was impossxble

ST. PAUL READY TO LEAVE.
Cruiser Is Still Cooling, but Sailing 0!
ders Are Expeeed at Any Time.
-New York, June 8.—-The cruiser St.
Paul is still off Tompkinsville taking on
coal and supplies. Captain Slgsbee is
on board the vessel, having returned
from the conference in Washington,
and the order “up anchor" is expected
at almost anv minute. The immense
amount of coal and provisions put in
the St. Paul’s hold since her arrival
here last Friday leads to the supposi-
tion that the cruiser will be sent ‘out
for mid-ocean scouting duty.‘ It is ru-
mored that she will take on heavier
guns, and, in company with the St.
Louis, Yale and Harvard, sail for
Spain. Nothing definite is kn‘bwn, how-
ever. 4,300 tons of coal have been plac-
ed in storage.

Anotlu r Decline in Wheat.
Chicago, June 8.—A further decline in-
the July wheat delivery, occurred at
the opening of trade yesterday morn—
ing. The decline extended to the other
deliveries to a lesser degree. It reflect—
ed a. weak English wheat market and
very favorable crop reports from the
wheat growing districts of the West.
The Kansas state crop report, made
public yesterday, proved a record brea-
ker, putting the condition of winter
wheat at 103.
The government crop report for the
entire wheat territory, due on Thurs-
day, it was predicted will show a. gen-
eral condition of about 90.

Ottawa, June 8.—The oflicial notlflca‘
tion from the British government that

discussion. The order came from tho
Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, the co-
lonial secretarv to the governor gen-
eral, and was by the governor general
transmitted to the cabinet. ‘ ‘

Spectacles for horses have been pat-

used with._considerable success. T'heir
object is not so much to magnify ob—
jects as to make the ground in front
of the horse appear nearer to his head
than it really is. The result is con-
tinual high step-ping, which, after a
while, becomes natural and gives to
the horse an aristocratic gait, which 'he
will retain for many years—Philadel-
