Among the passengers were Philipo

rect from Manila, but started from
Hongkong, where he has been for some
time He says that he IS not familiar

. General Greene says that he was not
recalled for any particular reason that
he knows OF. He received his orders to
return to San Francisco the same day
that General Merritt received orders to
proceed TO Paris by way OF the Suez
canal. With reference to the report
that he was recalled owing to his ac-
ton in conducting an illegal court mar
tial at sea General Greene says that
Major General Otis gave him the cases
to try and showed him a paragraph I'm
the articles of war giving him the au-
thority to try them.
The cases were tried according to
General Otis orders. and the findings
of the court were later reversed by the
Washington authorities. General Greene
says there is no truth in the story that
he had trouble with General Merritt.
on the contrary he says that they are
the best Of friends.
Speaking of the situation at Manila,
General Greene expressed the opinion
that there would be no trouble with
Agulnaldo, but he declined to go into
details.
The health conditions at Manila are
improving but IL is extremely difficult
to prevent disease from spreading
among the American soldiers. as the
Spaniards have occupied the buildings
and have left the germs OF disease be-
hind them.

HOT SEPTEMBER SUNDAY.
Everybody Suffered Yesterday Until
the Rain Late in the Afternoon
Brought Welcomed Relief.

One could revert to the weather
considered at low-ebb for a topic of
conversation. 1t had a license TO hold
the front and center of the stage and
1t did. There have been warmer days,
but no one could recall on the spur of
the moment a warmer September Sun
day.
Ninety-three in the shade with baro-
meter at twenty-nine at o'clock p.
m. was the record mark of the heat
and the humidity. People will wear
starched clothes on Sunday and peo-
pie, in consequence, suffered. Thou
sands made efforts of infinite variety
to escape the suffering but the most of
them only half succeeded.
Nay Aug park was the Mecca of
many-S000 it is estimated. These are
in the category of those who only half
succeeded, If indeed, that much, in
gaining relief from the heat and sultri-
ness. One eight-seated car that went
out to the park at 3 o'clock had an
even hundred fares registered. Com
ing back the crowding was quite as
great, by reason of the fact that the
storm clouds that began to gather at
4.30 filled everybody simultaneously
with a desire to get home, and the
cars accordingly. While at the park
there was some little relief but in
coming and going the increased hard
ship made it a case of toss up a penny
to decide whether or not it wouldn't
have been better to stay at home.
There was an aggravating succession
of little 2x4 showers from 8 to o'clock,
but at els there was a voluminous
downpour that made life once more
worth the living. 1t came after ev-
erybody had gotten home from the af-
ternoon outings, and thereby earned
all the more gratitude.
The wisdom of the concert idea at
Nay Aug park was evidenced by the
large crowd that gathered from all por-
tions of the park in the vicinity of the
improvised stand on the main picnic
grounds at the hour announced for the
appearance of the Mendelssohn quar-
tette. The programme, as printed pre-
viously, was carried out in it's entirety,
and the singers, Thomas Abrams, first
tenor: Llew Jones. second tenor: Da-
vid Beynon, first bass; Moses Morgan,
second bass, and the accompanst,
for their generosity in the evidence of
| appreciation on the part of the i'm
mense audience.
About a thousand persons heard the
concert at Laurel Hill park by Bauer's
band and the Schubert quartette. II
was one of the finest musical treats
ever given in this city The band was
given four encores, and the quartette
had to reappear even after a double
number. John T. Watkins solo
Loves Old Sweet Song" with ac-
compartment by the band, was the
most enthusiastically applauded Of al
the numbers. Eugene Ham was singled
out for especial recognition by the
audience for his solo work in the Stars
and Stripes" and to satisfy the audi.
ence a portion of the selection embrac.
ing the piccolo solo was repeated.
