CAMP MERRITT, San Francisco, June T.
1S9S.-It was not without feelings of envy
that the members of the Thirteenth regiment
witnessed the departure for st. Paul of the
three officers and twelve men detailed to re-
turn and recruit the regiment to Its full war
strength. Not that they were anxious TO get
back home rather than go to Manila, but they
naturally felt longing to see their native
Place again before leaving the Golden Gate.
When the order came from Washington to
send recruiting officers to Minnesota, there
was considerable speculation as to who would
be detailed. Mai. Ed S. Bean could have
been one OF the officers, but he said he fear
ed the regiment would leave Camp Merritt
before he would return to it and he did TO.
want to be left behind. otherwise he would
have been very glad of such a commission.
Mai. Frederick was then selected and he
consented to go, though he said he disiiked to
leave the regiment just as he was getting his
battalion into frst-class shape
The selection of the two other officers to
problem for Col. Reeve Captain after captain
was consulted and it was rumored that this
one and then that enc was the fortunate in
oiviaual. Finally Capt. Frank T. Corriston
of Company l. agreed to go. Col. Reeve next
sent for several lieutenants and Lieut.. Mel

These men felt greatly elated over the pros

load them with haversacks with messages to
friends in st. Paul and Minneapolis. Each

from some comrades.

| Failed, and 1t Was Feared She
| Intended Taking the Law in Her
| Own Hands,
Mrs. Addie c. Moore, living at 1919
Hennepin avenue, MINNEAPOLIS. created
a lively scene about the court house
yesterday noon. She had a revolver
| concealed about her person, and it was
| thought she intended 10 shoot Edwin
Siocum, Minneapolis law student
| whose arrest she caused on the charge
| OF SANDER, and who was DISCHARGED bv
Judge Hine. ~
The woman was arrested by Bailiff
Mcmahon, who found in her pocket
after a struggle. a loaded revolver.
| MRS. Moore denied that she intended
narm1ng any one, declaring that she
earned the weapon as a means of pro-
| lection, fearing that Slocum would in
| jure her.
Mrs. Moore was taken before Judge
Hlne, who ordered her committed to
the county Jail to stand trial today on
the charge of carrying concealed weap-
| Ons.
! The trouble Mrs. Moore and Young
Slocum grows out of an allegation on
! the part of the woman that the young
F, man. slandered. her, She had Slocum
| arrested in Minneapolis. where, on a
nearing or the case, he was, DISCHARGED
The alleged SANDER is said to have
been uttered in this city at the state
! capitol, where Slocum took an examin-
alton for admission to the bar. and
Mrs. Moore Immediately had him ar
rested mere. The trial was set for yes
terday, and after hearing the testi-
mony in the case, Judge IIine discharg-
! ed Slocum on the ground that what he
had said of the woman was in the ma
ture Of a privileged communication to
refute charges which she had made
! against the young man.
! This action highly displeased Mrs.
Moore, and, when her attorney. E. J..
Darragh, and Prosecutor Hall refused
TO ADDRESS the court upon what she
! considered an unfair ruling, the woman
! Jumped to her feet and vigorously de-
nounced Slocum, the lawyers in the
case and number of prominent Mill
City individuals, claiming that undue
influence was directed in Slocum's be-
half
When court adjourned, the woman
remained about the room, pressing into
i the group where stood Slocun and sew
| eral friends Her manner was sus-
plclous, and Slocum's attorney advised
him to leave the room. AS the young
man started to act on the advice, the
woman followed him, and Attorney
Anderson, Slocum's counsel, grabbed a
hand bag which she carried, convincing
himself that Mrs. Slocum had a revolt
yer in the receptacle
The attorney Informed Bailiff McMa-
hon, Mrs. Moore had in the meantime
| gone out Of the court room, and it was
| several minutes before she was located
on the first floor of the court house.
Mcmahon caught up with her, and.
i, diving his hand into her dress pocket.
found her grasping the revolver which
was loaded and cooked. The weapon
was new affair of blue steel During
the excitement, Slocu1n disappeared.
! Mrs Moore will be given a hearing
in the police court today.
