put the ladies upon its staff and claimed
the glory of their work.
1t will claim the glory won by any one,
| if it can only get a person to read its
columns and believe what he has read
1t would share with the volunteer the
only reward he has for his hardships-the
luster of his own courage. but it will win
no fame for itself; it prefers rather that
some one else finds the work and the
worry and wins renown, and then, like the
old man of the sea, 1t will mount his
shoulders and fill the air with its brayS.
1t would be all right if the regiment were
out in a summer camp, having laid aside
the arts of peace for a week or two, but
in this case the victims are volunteers
coming home to rest and security. They
have braved the hardships of war and
the rayages of disease; they should not
now have to stand the self-seeking
friendship of the Examiner. They
have earned the gratitude of decent peo-
pie; they should not be subjected to the
humiliating position the Examiner is will
ing to place them in to help in it's wild
hunt for another subscriber They need
a rest. 1t would be only charity to pay
the Examiner what it hopes to gain by
all its excitement and then tell it to keep
quiet, for there are more volunteers COM
ing.
In his statement to The Call, published
over his own signature, General Shafter
gives a clear outline of the position of
| the Government in the matter of clothes
for its men. 1t is SO plain it needs only
to be read, and there can be no gainsay-
ing it. The Government never could and
never intended to issue clothing gratui-
tousy, and neither General Miles nor any
one else ever said the Government would
do SO. The clothing is there for the. men
if they wish to draw it. If they do not
wish to do so, let the Examiner turn its
wind batteries on something else and let
the volunteers alone.
The Red Cross Society has taken the
question of clothing the volunteers into
it's own hands, and the first installment
was loaned to the Oregon Regiment yes
terday. More will be forthcoming to-
day. The coats will be issued on the re-
celpt of the men and before they leave
camp they Will be expected to turn them
back to be used by other incoming volun-
teerS.
The action of the Red Cross Society
was taken after 1t was seen that the Gov
ernment was powerless in the matter, and
It's erect IS not TO provide the men with
any manytfning, the Government cannot or Will
not furnish them, but to save them the
price OF such articles, as it would be de-
Quoted from their pay if they drew the

GERS and men are glad the matter has
been settled in this way. for they have
become tired of being placed in the light
or mendlcants. As one officer expressed
1t yesterday. 1.-The Government has as
much powerfto issue twenty-dollar pieces
from the mint as to issue clothing gratu-
ltously, and this the regiment has un-
derstood from the beginning

evening were purchased from the regi-
mental ouartermaster. They have all
The San Francisco call., 1899-07-20

%HERE are some things even the
President of the United States may
not do, and one of these is to Vlo-
late the law 1t is written in army
- regulations that no clothing shall be
issued to troops without being
charged up against each mans clothing
allowance and the President can no more
change this than he can suspend the right
of trial by jury. 1t is a law absolute and
comprehensive and made to protect the
millions of dollars worth of property ham
died by the military establishment, and
not even the Examiner, capering solemnly
in its cap and bells and dmming the fires
of the crematory with its tear-dampened
pages, can change it. 1t is perhaps be-
cause it knows 1t cannot change matters
that the journalistic vacuum hoWlS so
loud and Enthusiastically and demands
at columns lengths the Presidential ear.
When the volunteers of Oregon came
here from the Philippines they were made
welcome, and every one saw in them a
body of men entitled to respect and fair
treatment, a regiment that had won honor
and was going home with it's own glory.
1t. remained with the Examiner, however,
to find in them a medium for advertising
itself, and it has set about the task with
q will. It has placed the regiment in the
position of lot of mendicants wasting
while within reach Of their hands but un-
der lock and key are piles of overcoats
and blankets which the Government re-
fuses to issue. If the Examiner had any
intention of fairness it would have ac-
knowledged the position of the Govern
ment and admitted that Mckinley as well
as itself knew something of the limits of
his office: that the men of the Oregon
regiment were CoatleSS because they
wished to save the price of the overcoat,
not because the Government would not al
low them to draw one; and it might have
learned, too. that the men were quietly
providing themselves with extra UNDER
clothes, which would do them in civil life
as well as in camp. But In this course
lay no opportunity for self advertisement.
and so the guests of the city, the men en-
titled by all rules of hospitality and senti-
ment to the best treatment the press and
public can give them, were hustled into
the Examiners band wagon while the
Examiner gave tongue of its own worth
General Summers was interviewed, Cen
eral Miles was interviewed, the President
was interviewed, army officers here and in
Washington, heads of departments and
prominent citizens all were led into the
Journalistic pen of the Examiner and were
quoted to show, not how cold were the
Oregon men even from an Examiner
standpoint but what a wonderful piece of
paper and ink the Examiner was. The
Red Cross Society was appealed to in one
of those hysterical, inexpensive Examiner
appeals, and when the society was found
to have been working on the same ques-
ton right along the Examiner promptly

We have desire to interfere in the internal poll

fuentia members ought the folly OF presenting
themselves at Indianapolis in contending factions IN
stead of a united, harmonious body. The California

THE USUAL THING.

IMPORTS from Indianapolis concerning the
~ international convention OF the Epworth
League, which is to begin its sessions day.
are to the effect that delegations from California
arrived early the ground-one from San Francisco
and one from Los AngeleS-and it is added, These
delegations represent two factions that contendng
for the meeting place in 1901"
1t thus appears that in this contest the usual thing
is to happen The delegates from each of the other
States will be united and will work together to obtain
the convention for some city OF their State but Cali
fornia will be divided and faction of her deega
ton will work against the other.
That sort OF thing is frequent the repetition of it
in this instance will cause surprise 1t is the
less to be regretted that it occurs. The Epworth
Leaguers OF the State ought to set an example OF
harmony and cooperation rather than to follow the
old precedents of sectional divisions and factona an
tagonisms. If all the delegations from the State work
together the chances OF bringing the convention to
California will be good, but if they remain divided it
is almost foregone conclusion some other State will
bear away the prize.
Los Angeles has just entertained with success and
with credit to herself the National Educational Con-
vention and is therefore eager undertake the en-
tertanment of greater convention still That is
natural, and yet it is by we'll advised. The

DRASTIC MEASURES
TO AVERT PANIC
Boston and New York Financiers
Unite to Save Stocks From
Serious Depression

Boston, Dec 17.-The Post will say
tomorrow:
"As a result of conference with the
Boston and New York financial men,
which at o'clock this morning had
almost an uninterrupted session of "a
hours, it is probable there will be a
special meeting of the stock exchange
1t 8 O'clock this morning, to consider
drastic measures for the present f1nan
ial situation.
"At this conference, it was practical
y decided that if no other action was
aiken, support would at least be given
good stocks in order to prevent what
might be termed a gamblers panic.
There is one stock. in particular, a
Boston stock, which has sold far above
par which went a little below it Sat-
urday and large blocks of it are ex-
pected to be thrown on the market by
men who need the money to carry them
over on their other lines. There is no
telling how far the downward rush may
be carried.
"a measure was being considered at
the conference. at an early hour this
morning Any radical step win de-
pend 10 a great extent upon the Lon
don market this morning. If that
should be very bad, some drastic meas
ures are almost certain to be adopted
to bolster uD the situation
1T was reported that negotiations
were in progress for the absorption of
large blocks Of United States Mining
for cash, by New York interests. A
conference with that object in view,
was in progress at q late hour last
evening 1t came down merely to a
question of price"

WHALEBACK LOST
IN A SUPERIOR GALE
Captain and First Mate Perish
With Their Ship-Steamer
COLGATE Hoyt Safe

Chicago, Dec. IA dispatch from
Sault Ste Marie, Mich, says: Whale
back barge lis, which has been missing
on Lake Superior since Wednesday last.
was today given up for lost, with her
crew of nine men. The only names
known of the lost are: Capt. Arthur A
Boyce, Mate Michael Stynop, Cook VIM
Buckner.
The steamer Colgate Hoyt which had
the lost barge in tow gave up the search
for her today, and passed down through
the locks bound for Lake Erie The tua
Vigilant, which was also searching fol
the lis, likewise gave it up. The barge
apparently went down in the great
storm of Wednesday.
After starting out from the head of
Lake Superior" said the captain of the
Colgate Hoyt, We ran into a furious cold
northeast gale. For 40 hours we bucked
into the seas and finally we succeeded in
getting within 10 miles of Pick Island
when we got into comparatively smooth
water, the wind being off shore. l then
changed my course to the southwark
running parallel with the shore to keep
under it's protection. At five minutes to
six o'clock Wednesday morning, l went
in to breakfast. At that time l saw the
lights on the barge all right Five min
utes later l was told that the tow line
had parted, and IFS was drifting out
into the lake
Il imediately put the Hoyt back and
for two hours l moved back and forth
over the course, but not a thing could
see of the barge.I kept up the search
until dark, when 1 run down to White
Fish port. Then l met Capt. Smith,
agent of the Whaleback fleet, who was
on the tug Viglant We kept up the
search until today when we came back,
fearing we might be caught on Lake
Superior in heavy snow storm. We
had only 40 tons of coal and We're in
danger of running out of fuel
