HAVE SENT MESSAGE TO OTIS
Company VI, who Have Been Miss
Ing Since Last April.

San Francisco, Aug. 2.-There was
rejoicing in the Oregon camp this
morning when Captain Poorman, of
company NJ, posted cablegram from
General Otis saying that Ralph Mccoy.
James f. Lawrence and Clarence stills
are still alive and well in the Philip
pines, though prisoners of the rebels.
Since April 2S. these men have been
given up as dead. On that date, at 6
in the morning, they Were sent to re-
connoiter territory adjacent to Mariloa, ,
near the company camp. All were
heavily armed. and were to return at
or before noon. That was the last
heard OF the II 10 until yesterday, when
General Otis learned that they had
been spared by the insuI gents, who had
taken them as prisoners. No details
were received.
Company VI is jubilant tonight, and
everybody feels like celebrating, for
the men long mourned as dead will, it
is thought, soon be on their way to the
friendly shores OF Oregon. All are
members of company NJ, and many a
day was spent by their anxious COM
rades in securing the swamps and bam-
BOO jungles to find some trace of them.
The remains of Private James Dolye,
who died from dysentery Saturday
night, were buried with military hon
ors this afternoon at the Presidio.

DEATH OF THOS. E. BEANS,

pie, McMechen, Marshall county, in
the Seventy-seventh year of his age.
Two children, Mrs. Kate MARBLE, and
