CAMP MERRITT, San Francisco,
CAL, June 15.-A significant fact in con-
nection with the report that the Thir-
teenth will go with the next expedition
to the Philippines developed today. Gen.
King, brigade commander, announced
that he would Immediately begin an
inspection Of the transports here. This
serves as a clnching argument in
favor Of the Thirteenth's going to Ma
Mia with the next outfit, for why
should Gen. King decide to inspect the
transports at once if his brigade is not
going to make use of the ships in a
very short time?
The news of Gen. Kings intention to
look over the fleet of transports was
received by the Minnesota boys with
unsurpassed joy.
We'll" remarked one of the officers,
I'VE are somewhat like the proverbial
bed bug-we may be a trife slow, but
we get there just the same"
EVILS OF PAY DAY.
Pay day has it's evils as we'll as it's
pleasures. The fact that the Thirteenth
regiment was paid the sum of $40, 900
in gold attracted a gang of thugs about
the camp, who lay in wait for any
hapless private, with the intention of
making that private deliver up his hard
earned stipend. J. N. Roberts, Com
pany rs bugler was held up on Golden
Gate avenue and robbed of $40 by two
masked ruffians, who struck the boy
with piece of lead pipe, or some other
cfr he 1,,1
covered in an unconscious condition and
carried to the hospital, where restora-
tives were applied. He was unable to
give an accurate description of his as
sailants Another volunteer was stuck
up by, it is supposed, the same two
rascals, but the fellows found nothing
as the soldier had left his belongings
with Col. Reeve for safe keeping.
Col Reeve had $4,000 in his trunk
last night, deposited with him by the
privates of his regiment. and it is esti-
mated that $4,000 more was provided
for In exchange and credit.
BOYS BEHAVE THEMSELVES.
The fact that not a dozen men broke
the guard lines after pay day is fact
that the members of the Thirteenth
regiment may well be proud Of Fifty
saloons are within a radius of a few
piocks from the camp, but they got
very little of the money paid the boys
of the Gopher state, for the men were
wise and sailed" away their stuff for
use in the Philippines. They want
money for trinketS and mementoes to
be sent to their mothers and sweet
hearts, and then, it is said, tobacco
comes high in Manila.
The Thirteenth regiment is on it's good
behavior and should be given all the
credit it deserves for establishing such
splendid record and reputation.

SAFE At LAST
Are Some Of The Notorious Post Office
Robbers.

The capture and conviction OF
he parties who robbed the Syca,
more Dale post Office and the
store of W. 3. Stevens, was in
deed a clever piece of detective
service. The robbery was com
mitted Saturday, April 9th, and
on Sunday the postmaster at
Clarksburg attempted to get an
inspector to work on the case
The department. failed to send
one, and the case was put in the
hands of U. S. Deputy G. W. Law
who worked with untiring vigil
ance for a couple of days, when
he succeeded in locating the gang;
they were captured and at the
same time the stolen goods. mail,
key, stamps, etc. were found.
Two colored youths, named
Homer and Chas. Ransel, to-
gether with Guy Danley and
Chauncey Henderson, were inn
prisoned. Henderson was at Mo
nongah and was captured there
by policeman Bill Meyers, acting
under Laws orders. The men
were held by o. S. Commissioner
T. S. Spates, and in few days
that most efficient of all post
office inspectors, Col. Samuel I.
Hooton, arrived upon the scene
and began arranging the evidence
for the grand jury. The prison.
ers were all indicted, and Danley
and Chas. Ransel confessed and
each were sentenced by Judge
jackson to two years in the peni-
Tertiary. Homer stood trial and
got three years sentence. Hen
derson's trial indicated that he
was in the crowd, had got part of
the stolen goods, had come home
from .Monongah on the night of
the robbery. and after the rob-
berry the other fellows had come
to sleep in the same room Hen
derson slept in and had with them
the mail key and the goods. But
the Indictment in this case was
! at fault in charging him directly
! with tile crime, instead of laid
ing and abetting." He was &C
cordingly cleared, but the State
grand jury will take up his case
in May.
These people are assuredly
members of a most notorious
gang, and the large number of
stores and other buildings that
have recently been burglarized
in this section attest their dar-
ing and depravity. Messrs. S.
W. Gordon, q. L. Davis. and
policemen Meyers and Grapes as
sisted in the capture of the crowd.
