No time could be spared from these works for the ordi nary pomp and ceremony, so while the Johnny Dougnboys," the troopers and light artillerymen were trudging and laundering over the big parade grounds before the admiring eyes of the spec tators, these men went steadily on with their more serious work of erecting em- placements. mounting huge messengers of destruction and otherwise preparing for what now seems to be the inevita- ble.

Light Batteries and F. Third Artillery Passing Review
 Colonel Evan Miles,

Perhaps the all-prevailing topic, war, had much to do with attracting civil fans to the Presidio yesterday to wit ness the regular monthly inspection and muster of troops, but whatever it was hundreds braved the lowering skies and the piercing winds that swept in from the ocean during the early morning hours, and watched the maneuvers of the troops with liveliest interest. The review did not differ materially from what may be seen on the last day of every month at the post, but where or dinarily only a few score people jour ney out to the reservation to see the display, hundreds were there yester- day.
 The only feature that gave a possible hint Of the active preparations for hos tilities now going on, was the absence of the three batteries of heavy artil- lery. These troops ordinarily form a part of the display but yesterday they were mustered in front of their quar- ters as early as o'clock and immedi- ately marched out to the new fortifica- tions on the bluff above Fort Scott, which they have under their immedi-

REFUSED TO
 BE HELD UP C. F. Bonds Experience With the Gas Com
 pany. His Light Gut Off Because He Would Not Make a
 Deposit. Tho Corporation Seeks to Arrange the Matter, but Its Offer Is Promptly Declined.

One lesson will not suffice to correct evil in some people, particularly if those people happen to be banded together in the form of a corporation. The San Francisco Gas Company is an instance It might be supposed that after the suit brought by Henry James to recover the S5forwhich he had been held up, and the subsequent ex- posture in The Call of the company's Black Bart methods, it would abandon that form of outlawry and turn to some other means of accomplishing the same end; but no. it continues operations right along on the old familiar lines, and Dlunders people wherever and whenever the opportunity offers.
 c. r. Bond is the latest victim of this unpunished band, and he only escaped with his money because he was courage ous and held the bandits at bay.
 MT Bond bought cut the saloon at 3024 Fulton street the first of the month, and a week later the gas company presented Q bill for gas consumed for the month ending March 5. MT Bond said he would see the former proprietor about it, and did so that night. Bond gave him suffi- cient money to pay for the gas he had used during the five days, and the former occupant paid the bill. securing

ICE COMPANIES
 READY TO FIGHT
The Price Of the Commodity Will Be Gut Low CT Than
 Ever.
National and Union Concerns Are Prepared to Meet the Mutual's
 Rates.

The fight between the three ice com panies that are doing business in this city, the Mutual National and Union, will be on in earnest to-day, April l.
 The two latter intend to meet any cut that has been made or may be made by the Mutual. and solicitors were out all over town yesterday trying to keep cus- toners in line and prevent loss of busi- ness, as 1t was placed before the ice war began. Before the split in the ice trust took place. the price of ice was universal ly S6 ton, but when the dissensions caused rupture the Mutual Company cut the price to S5 ton.
 The National and Union companies are prepared to meet this reduction, and. if 1t becomes necessary, to make even a lower figure to hold their customers they will do so. It was minated by solicitors yesterday that the price of ice might even go to s4 ton unless the representa- tives or the three concerns agree to get together and stop the war of prices.
 All three of the concerns own immense plants here and in the Sierras. and a combination of any two will be likely to force the third out of the market In the meantime the saloons and restaurants about town where ice is used in large quantities will profit by the difficulties among the ice men

DIAMONDS ON THE DEAD. Body of an Unknown Man Supposed to Be Commercial Traveller
 Found in the Bay.

The body of well dressed man was found yesterday floating in the bay at the foot of Jackson street wharf by a boat man named G. Price The features of the dead were unrecognizable, the body hav- ing been in the water about two weeks The dead man was about five feet nine inches tall and wore brown sack coat and vest. tan shoes, dark worsted over- coat dark striped trousers and fancy colored shirt.

 Last Friday Mr. Bond received notice that unless he deposited $ with the com He refused to submit to this extortion, and his meter was taken away.
 MT. Bond went to the office and showed by his receipt that he did not owe any thing, and requested to have the meter put in again. But the person whom he saw told him that unless he put up the $S he could not have any gas MT. Bond explained that he was a business man and expected to pay his bills on demand Though a private citizen, he was as hon. est as the corporation that sought to rifle his pockets. He said he did not propose to give the company the use of sS indef1- ing to give ample security for the amount. He had a prominent business man with him, man who is rated in the millions, who offered to be responsible, but the re- ply was. No coin, no gas"
 MT. Bond became exasperated at this barefaced attempt to hold him up, and, remarking that the company might be consumed in it's own gas for all he cared. purchased a supply of lamps and returned to his place to arrange for lighting it with oil The lady who owns the prem ises learned of her tenants predcament and going to the office offered to make the deposit good herself.

 The engineer officers of the army are planning, or executing plans, for exten- sive works at Lime Point. During the past week civilian mechanics and la borers have been sent over to the works and it is understood that buildings will be erected for the accommodation of the garrison. Preparations are in pro- gress to put in new battery of 8-inch breech-loading rifled guns. Three twelve-inch breech-loading rifled guns are already in position. The fort Is 4S0 feet above the water. The guns are mounted on barbette carriages and can be depressed to deliver a plunging fire at an object in the Golden Gate.
 General Miles attaches great impor- tance to the Lime Point position, and speaks of it as the Gibraltar of the Pa cific Coast. A water battery will be established at Gravelly Beach, from which direct fire at short range could be delivered against any hostile vessel which might get into the barbor by one of the many chances of war.

That closed the spectacular display, for the men were drawn up in line while their arms and accouter- ments were inspected, and after they were dismissed.
 The inspection was not ended, how ever, for the officers made a tour of the barracks and stables, examining the quarters of man and beast with min ute care AS usual, everything was found in excellent condition and Colonel Miles pronounced himself as being weh pleased with the showing.

 The ambulance was summoned and Durand was taken to the Receiving Hospital. Drs. Thompson and Winter berg found that his skull was frac- tured for about three inches, and, as he had bled profusely, they feared he might die. Dur@nd was placed under an aneSthetic and the skull was tre- pinned and piece about three inches long was removed
 Policeman F. w. Smith was attracted to the scene by the crowd that had as- sembled in front of Durands place of business. By the time he reached there Carney had disappeared. He took possession of the iron bar and went to the Southern police station with 1t and reported the assault. Captain Spillane at once issued instructions to the off, cers In the Southern district to keep sharp lookout for Carney and arrest him on sight.
 Carney has been mixed up in several scrapes for the last eight or nine years In 1891 he was the proprietor of a saloon at APT Pacific street, and in April was arrested for robbery. He beat the case in the Superior Court Since then he has been arrested at diff ferent times for. minor offenses. He has occupied the position of deputy in the Superintendent of Streets department. and has recently been employed as a substitute Deputy Sheriff. He has been haunting the police courts, and the police say that he has been using his political influence to Square" eases for his friends in the courts.
 Kearney was arrested last night by Policemen Conlon and charged with an assault to commit murder. He refused to make a statement. except to say that he was sorry that "the - = Frenchman" was not dead. On account of the serious condition of his victim Captain Spillane refused to admit him to bail.
