Adjutant Charles E. Davis of the First

Yesterday afternoon Adjutant CHARLES

ceive from the War Department. q tele-
gram announcing his appointment as
captain in the 26tL United States volun-
teers MIR. Davis said that he had mad 9
no application Tor this appointment and
ago as to say, whsn approached regard
ing the matter, that he did not desire

could not rs yet say whether he would
accept the appointment.
Yesterday aftsrnoon at the armory Mr..
Davis was warmly congratulated by his
fellow officers of the First Maine regi-
ment. All of them urged him to accept
the appointment, bat me said that he
would take tue to consider the matter
a few days before accepting the offer.
Lieutenant Davis has been the adjutant

Rut the Steamboats, We're Few and
Small.
One of the Marines Con-
soles the Impatient.
What the Steamboat Officials
Say.

About O'Clock last evening the battle-
ship Indiana was u very hot place, per-
haps not quite 80 hot as on the eventfui
day at Santisgo, but too warm altogether
Tor time Of profound peace" such as
the statesmen speak Of The reason Of IL
was that there were several hundred peo-
pie crowded on to the deck OF the battle-
chip, AMI there seemed to to no steamers
to take them away. Occasionally a little
boat would drop down, iii up and then
go pulling back to the city. But these
little loads did not seem to make any ap-
preciable differences In the impatient
throng on the deck of the battleship.
Everybody was perfectly sure that the
steamboat company had brought them
down there and then heartlessly aban-
doned them. Many people were there
from ont of tnwn. and they had lost
their trains. Their mood was especially
unforgiving. AS they contided their
grievances, one to another, their wrath
increased. One OF the marines attempted
to pour oil on the troubled waters by tell
Ing the dissatisfied, In strong Teutonio
accent, that they would surely go home
before they went to bed. This had a csr-
tain effect.
A representative Of the PRESS was
aboard the Indiana, and by general con.
currence of opinion was nominated and
elected Ito bestow the proper retribution
upon the authors Of tho wholesale aban-
donment.
When the PRESS man arrived In the
city and sought out the authors of tho
mischief. be found them very numerous.
Steamhoats, sail boats and row boats had
been incontineutly carrying people
down all day. Ths boats belonged to no
single management. The Casco Bay
Steamboat company was. how ever, the
longest established and best known agen-
cy, and at their door the PRESS man
laid the aggregated complaints Of the
hundreds OF supperless ones.
One of the officials of the company ex-
planned that they had done the best they
could with the situation. The people had
begun TO 60 down as early as 10 o'clock
and had continued to 60 down until the
middle Of the afternoon. The Casco Bay
line alone had taken down three or four
thousand people. and two or three out
side steamers bad been busy also. The
result was congestion when the people
wanted to come from the various ships.
At the same time also the government
workmen on Cushing's Island had to be
brought up, giving the line all 1t could
do.
The PRESS man suggested that the
boats did not seem tc come SO equently
to take people away ms they had to bring
them, but the official said that this was
not SO. at least SO far as his line was
concerned. OF course he could not be
expected to answer for the outside boats.
lie Furthermore said that today and for
the remainder of the time the fleet Is here
the Casco Bay line will make arrange
ments to take care of the people, even
though the crowds be as great as yester-
days unprecedented throng.
