Sketch of His areer---Line of
Promotion---Army Notes.
information was received at depart
ment headquarters yesterday of the
death of Col. John E. Yard, Eighteenth
infantry. which occurred at Fort Hays,
Kan, yesterday morning. Col. Yard
was born in Pennsylvania, from which
state he was appointed to the army in
November, 1861, as second lieutenant
in the Ninth infantry. He was pro-
NOTED to the grade of first lieutenant,
May so, 1868, and captain, July %, 1886.
In March, l 67, he was assigned to the
Tenth cavalry as major, but OH the con-
solidation Of the army in 1869 he
was relegated to the list of super
numeraries. Dec. 81, 1879, he was as
signed to the Twentieth infantry and
served with his regiment until 1876,
when he was assigned to duty on re-
cruiting service and given the command
of Columbus barracks, Ohio. He was
the Twenty-fourth infantry in March,
1879, but his failing health kept him
apart from his regiment much of the
time. His promotion to the colonelcy
of the Eighteenth infantry was con-
tirmed April 19, 1886. since which date
he has been under the doctors care
nearly twO-thirds of the time. Col.
Yards death resulted from Bright's
disease, coupled with a complication of
heart and kidney troubles. A wife and
two children survive him. His remains
will be taken to Harrisburg, Pa, for i'll
terment.
THE CONSEQUENT PROMOTIONS.
BY the death Of Col. Yard, Lieut.. Col.
Henry M. Lazelle. Twenty-third infan-
try, becomes colonel of the Eighteenth
infantry. while Mai. Hamilton S. Hawk
ins, now of the Tenth infantry, will go
to the Twenty third infanty in the
capacity of lieutenant colonel.
Col. Lazelle is West Pointer and an
officer of sterling merit. His war serv-
ice secured him the brevet of major
for gallant and meritorious Services in
battle hear Culpepper, Va. He has
been for the past two years on detached
service in Washington, in charge of
the duty of compiling the records of the
rebellion. The regiment to which he
will be promoted could not possibly
secure a more efficient officer. Maj.
Hawkins is native Of South Carolina,
but was appointed to the army from
New York state as second lieutenant
in the Sixth infantry, April 26, 1851.
He had previously spent two years and
a half at the military academy at West
Point, but resigned in January, 1855.
He is gallant officer, and his military
history speaks loudly of his bray
cry in the war of the Rebellion. He
has had the distinction of refusing two
brevets for conspicuous yalor in action.
The major is at present in command of
the West Point military academy.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Opposition to Increasing tb
City's Indebtedness.


>, When the chamber of commerce met
yesterday morning, on motion of Mr..
Stevens, the rules were suspended and
the subject of issuing city bonds was
considered. Mr.. Stevens stated that he
had looked over the list and had found
great difficulty In determining what
could be stricken off the list or dimiD-
ished.
Mr.. Fairchild said that it was hardly
worth while to discuss the matter, as it
was not likely that any attention would
be paid to the wishes Of the chamber
any more than there was done in re-
gard to the paving of West Seventh
street.
Capt. Berkey said that the taxation of
st. Paul property now was about = per
cent of che total valuation, and many
tions had been submitted were useless.
The Broadway bridge was not needed,
nor was the uptown bridge. The old
Jail could be rearranged and made serv-
iceable. Taxes will be from 25 to 30
per cent higher this year than they were
last, and it is proposed to add nearly
81, 100000 more to the Indebtedness of
the city.
II. J. Horn advocated the arrange
ment for sinking fund to provide for
the principal of the bonds.
Mr.. Willrich read bills making pro-
vision for the issue of bonds, the total
amount being s1.700,000. distributed as
follows: School buildings, 100000;
County jail, 100000; sewers, $500, 900:
bridges, 100000; parks, $4,000; Sum

tbrney. according to the bill, is to re-
.ceive 81, 500, his assistant $500 and his
| clerk $1,000 Another of the bills pro-
+ vides that the county auditor. register
of deeds and the clerk of the courts
shall receive $4,000 year each aud no
fees. By another bill the salaries of the
timemberS of the board of control are to
Ebe increased from $50 to 5000 year,
and the salary of the clerk of the board
from 5000 to $1,000 year. The county
,e0ronor is to have his salary fixed at
| $500.
II. S. Fairchild introduced a reso-
luton in opposition to appropriation for

creek. He declared that the issuing of
bonds for the building of a bridge at
this point would be one of the most un-
called for, unnecessary and unjustifi-
able expenses to which the city had
ever been put. There are already
bridges across the valley connecting
Dayton's bluff with Arlington hills.
There is a bridge on Payne avenue,
over the st. Paul & Duluth railroad
tracks, making convenient outlet
from the heart of the city.
On motion of Mr.. Nichols action on
Mr., Fairchild's resolution, and all the
bills that had been read, except that re-
lating to the Jail, was deferred till next
Monday. and all were referred to the
executive committee.

man at Victoria who is supposed to
know where Charles Roy is. The teie-

officer to Victoria at once. The police
are somewhat mystified by the mess
age, but will not send an officer, as they
nave no authority to arrest either Roy
