SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 18-(SpeciaI)
The Minnesota regiment has been sad
| and joyful by turns today. This noon
| an order was issued for the men to
turn in the arms and equipment to the
company commanders, and they did so
reluctantly. The orders were that on
Monday the company commanders were
to turn over the arms to the army ord.
nance officers. The enlisted men of the
Minnesota regiment realized they would
make poor showing marching into the
Twin Cities without their arms.
This evening the news became known
| in camp that Gov. Lind had received per-
mission from the war department for the
regiment to take their arms back to Min
| nesota, and the enlisted men cheered
to the echo. Gov. Lind went to Fresno
this evening to visit his wife's relatives,
but left copy of the telegram from the
his staff. The telegram was as follows:
Washington, D. c. Sept 16-Hon John
Lind Governor: The secretary of war
| authorizes you to receipt for the arms
and equipment now in the session of
| the Thirteenth Minnesota regiment with
| them to be promptly shipped to the Rock
| Island arsenal, Rock Island, H., after
| the reception of the regiment in Mime
sofa, and that any shortage shall be
| charged against the state, under the act
| of March 3, 1885, authorizing tbs replaces
ment by the war department of arms
| furnished the states TO volunteers going
| into the United States service in the re-
| cent war with Spain.
