Ordered to Philippines.


Ordered to Philippines.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-Fve regi-
ments now at San Francisco have been
ordered to Manila. Arrangements for
their transportation will be made at
once.
The regiments ordered to Manila are
the following: Fifty-frst Iowa, TWEEN
tieth Kansas, First Tennessee, First
Washington and detachment of the
First Oregon
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-It was stated
at the war department that no exigency
had arisen which made it necessary to
send the troops now at San Francisco to
Manila, but the order issued today was
in accordance with the general plan Of
the department regarding garrison for
the Philippines. That plan of garrison
duty included 10000 men for the Philip
pines, 1880 for Porto Rico and 10000
for Cuba, The troops to be sent to
Manila under today's order will fill the
complement for that station. The troops
would have been sent before, it was
said, except that the department was
awaiting the return of transports. 1t is
not expected that troops now at Homo.
lulu will accompany those to be EN-.
barked at San Francisco, but that more
troops will be sent to Honolulu in the
near future.
The war department. later amended
the orders relative to the dispatch Of
reinforcements to the Philippines so as
to increase the number by 1911 privates
and SO officers. These are made up Of
four companies of the Twenty third III
fantry and recruits for the Tenth Penn
sylvania, First Nebraska and First Colo.
RADIO. These troops made up the ex-
petition under General King, which
recently left San Francisco on the
Arizona for the Philippines, but was
stopped by the departments orders when
two days out and returned to port.

IMPORTANT EXPERIMENT.
San Gabriel Electric Company to Put
Down System Of Conduits


The San Gabriel Electric company
was granted permission yesterday to be-
gin the work of laying conduits for its
underground wire system along Broad
way and Spring street. The permit was
issued by Street Superintendent Drain
and was for that portion Of the street
mentioned, lying between Fourth and
Sixth streets. On Spring street the
company will begin it's conduit at Tenn
pie street and run 1t the entire length.
The work will be done on scale never
before attempted in this part of the
country. Something of an experiment
is to be tried by the company in using
a much larger feed wire than Is usually
used for such purposes. The potential
power which will be carried by this wire
is enormous. 1t being capable Of con-
veying a current OF $4,000 volts. The
success Of this experiment is being
watched with interest by other compan-
les interested in the transmission of
electricity for lighting and power pur
poses and the electrical journals Of the
east have asked for full reports of the
results obtained. The conduit system
will be sufficiently large to provide for
the business of the company for years
to come.
The Sunset Telephone and Telegraph
company will begin work tomorrow on
it's new conduit on Second street and
along Mott alley. This work will be
similar to the conduit recently laid on
Temple street

They notified the officials at the Beacon Falls station, who in turn notified Superin- tendent Beach of this city. Trackmen from Beacon Falls were sent to the grove, but as the fire had gained much headway, it was impossible to check the flames. The building is supposed to have been set on fire by tramps, as the rink is set back far from the tracks, and could not have caught fire from a passing locomotive.
 It was owned by the railroad com pany The skating rink was built about eighteen years ago and contained about $500 square feet of skating sur face. Int floor was made of southern pine boards laid edgewise.
 The loss is estimated between 1,5O0 and $2OOO. Superintendent Beach says he cannot say as yet as to whether the rink will be rebuilt or not. The rink was considered to have one of the best skating surfaces in the state.
