WAS AN ERROR.
Report That 1000 Soldiers Had
SQiled for Manila

San Francisco, Aug. u. - The news
telegraphad from Washington to the
effect that 1000 soldiers departed from
this city yesterday for Manila, was a
mistake. Two large transports will
probably leave this city next week for
the Philippines, but the only volunteers
to take their departure yesterday was
a detachment Of New YciI.ers who
sailed last night for Honolulu on the
steamer Mariposa. 1t is probable that
the news referring to their departure
telegraphed by the commanding officer
here to the department at Washington
was "bulled" between here and Wash
ington.
