70 USE SAILING VESSELS
ARMS AND AMMUNITION ON THE
TACOMA.
Steam Power is Very Little Quicker
From San Francisco to Manila than
Sailing Nessels-Horses and Mules.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2.-The gov
ing vessels to carry its stores and sup
plies from this city to the Philippines.
The first ship that will be charter
ed will be, probably, the Tacoma,
which arrived a few days ago from
Puget Sound. The Tacoma is owned
by the Alaska Packing Association,
and was bought by the latter only a
short time ago to ply in Alaskan wa
ters.
On the day she arrived in San Fran
cisco the Tacoma was inspected by
the Government, but she will be
given another inspection as soon as
she has discharged her cargo at the
the upper Gas Works. The idea of
the Government is to send the
Tacoma to Manila with supplies, am
munition, horses and mules.
At this time of year a ship can go
to the Philippines in nearly the same
time as a steamer, and it is rumored
that if the scarcity of steamers con-
tinues, ships may be pressed into SER
vice as transports.
Two steamers which are intended
to be used as transports by the War
Department arrived in port yesterday.
They were the Acapulco, from Pana-
ma and way ports, and Umatilla, from
Victoria and Puget Sound ports. The
Pacific Mail Company has protested
that if the Acapulco is taken the
Panama line will be badly crippled.
Four steamers have already been
taken from that branch of the Paci-
flc Mails service. Notwithstanding the
protest it is more than likely that the
Acapulco will be impressed today
The owners of the Umatilla have
similar objections to make.
The Pennsylvania which is being
eagerly looked for as a transport. has
failed to arrive, but is looked for
every hour. On her trip from Phila-
delphia she was obliged to put in
to Montevideo for repairs. and on
June 18th she sailed from Coronel.

TAKE IN
: THE FLAG.
Dampness OF the Night
l.. and Storms MARI
\ It's Beauty.

The present proiuse display Of national
aaas throughout the city is s,likingly
pio5uresque and patriotic, but tho Well
high universal habit Of leaving them out
over night or flying in rain an storm
seems 10 indicate lack of due care and
respect, however Internationally this Ii.ay
be.
Naval and military folk whos profession
al duty and honor 1t is to carry and watch
over emblems Of the kind, would never
leave them floating in tho darkness or to
be whipped to shreds and taruished I'M
necessarily In time Of dripping or tempes-
tu0us skies
Ourships, camps and fortresses fly their
flags only between sunrise and sunset,
and when In foul weather send aloft some
i much reduced and worn emblem, keeping
the fuller spread of their triumphant BAN
ners for more fitting skies and daylight.
That such course amply suffices needs
NO argument. No merely human emblem
proud though 1t be, need sern belittled
with temporary placement before The
dominant forces of nature or Its Obliterat.
! ing powers Of darkness.
! It is enough for our flag to float as 1t
will, now and throughout the war, clean,
hnstaiDed AMI bravely, where and when
the broad sunshine may disclose and sa-
lutte It,
/ why should not the public treat the
Star Spangled Banner with the same So
ticitude and tenderness afforded by Its
military guardiansp Take the flags In at
night and in storms. Keep them fresh
and clean, to wave in unsp0tted brilliancy
) over the return of our triumphant forces
at the end of the war.

! Before Judge Bradford In the United
States Court to-day the matter of the Will
mington Dental Manufacturing Company
camo up for consideration J. II. Hof-
fecker, Jr. informed the court that the re
d ceiver had recently collected $780, Two
notes Of $50 each and small notes amount
iug to $50 are still unsolicited There are
. large number OF book accounts which In
tho opinion Of the receiver are barred by
limitation.
He has been unable to collect Or sell the
! accounts A motion was made for the
notes to be turned over 10 the receiver for
services.
The court suggested that the receiver
should buy tho notes and then q
proper balance struck. Messrs. Nields and
Ward favored distribution of the funds
in court at present A certain sum should
be set aside for the receiver and counsel.
A third dividend should DO declared to
wind up The case.
Court favored the closing of the estate at
the present time. The receiver should con-
suit his counsel in regard to the suit pend
ing in Philadelphia. A conference can be
held and in the course OF couple of days
the court could declare dividend and
wind uD the estate.

Dear Sir. On the voyage from France
to this place sea monster was observed
by several OF the crew Of the steamship
Kasbek, OF London. 1t was seen on June
30 about 60 miles south Of the Grand
Banks Of Newfoundland. was on the

aroused by Il strange animal rising slowly
from tho sea about 50yards off. 1t seem.

three feet and about twenty-five feet Of It's
length WINS exposed to the sight 1t rose
out Of the water with TWO coils showing.
