going summary relates TO the low rate OF estimated
increase. A decline In this rate from PASS per cent
between 1880 and 1880 10 1884 per cent between 1880
and 1900 is certainly noticeable. but whatever
prise IL may occasion is mitgated when 1t is real
lied that the immigration OF the earlier decade
aggregated 5.2i66l3. while that OF 1880 TO 1900 the

population enumerated In 1890 by the difference be-

RECRUITS TAUGHT TO SHOOT.
Cen. shafter Reports Good Work Done at
the Snn Ernn cisco Camp.

WASHINGTON, Oct 16-The annual report
Of Major Gen. Shafter commanding the Depart
ments OF California and OF the Columbia has
been received at the War Department. He says
that the bulk Of the work In his charge pertains
to the transmission OF stores and the shipment
OF men to the Philippines, very large camp
Of recruits has been established at the Preside,
at timo numbering more than 1000 men.
lie recommends that so long any large body
OF troops remain in the Philippines the camp
shall be continued and that as rule troops shall
be congregated there and drilled for at least three
months
Capt Robert H. Noble inspector of Small Arms
practice, says in his report sent by Gen. Shafter
that the great Importance Of the instruction of
all recruits has been fully appreciated, and no
recruit has been sent away from the Preside
camp until he has had actual practice on the range
Since May IL, 1853 900 rounds of ammunition
have been fired. Owing TO lack of time prin-
cpally and also TO the fact that the range is not
suitable. no practice in diminishing is given
lie reports that the result Of practice has been
unusually good and says that 1t is not unusual
for twenty five targets to be made out Of twenty
five shots. One man on the second day on the
range made o. out of 100 Gen. Shafter adds to
this report by saying: THE men have shown
a great desire to perfect themselves as marksmen
and have shown great skill in the use OF their
weapons"
As to the recruiting camp Gen. Shafter re-
marks; There can be no doubt of the wisdom
Of establishing this camp. II has enabled the
Medical Department 10 weed out men unsuted for
service This course has been found a great
saving TO the Government. for if they had been
permitted to go to Manila, they would have broken
down there"
In his report on the Depar tment Of the Columbia
Gen Shafter calls attention 10 the fact that there
are as yet no guns mounted on Puget Sound
He says Three loinch and two 12-inch bar
bette carriages are mounted at Marrowstone
Point and the guns on hand. There are
sixteen mortar carriages mounted and four 10 inch
