CUTTERS ORDERED
TO BERING SEA
Patrol to Be Resumed

Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, March IA Wash
ington special to the Herald says: Or
ders were issued to-day for the re-
sumption of the annual Bering Sea pat
rol for the prevention of pelagic seal

from other vessels of the cutter service.
The patrol will be carried on under
the same regulations as in former
years. 1t is expected the patrol fleet
will go north about May l. The Bear
will go north about the same time on
her annual cruise through Bering
Straits to. Point Barrow in the Arctic
Ocean. She will look after the whaI-
ing fleet in those waters, rendering
such assistance as may be needed by
the vessels. Her commanding officer
will look into any complaints of law
lessness along the coast.
The Bear will carry to Alaska the
compensation voted by Congress to the
natives and missionaries who rendered
important assistance to the Point Bar
row relief expedition in the winter of
1898. Most of this compensation will
be given in the form of food supplies.
The new Yukon River cutter. the
Nunivak, will start north as early as
possible. In addition to carrying a full
complement of officers and men for the
enforcement of the revenue and navi-
cation laws on the Yukon River. she
will take out a representative of the
Fish Commission to make a study of

SAN LUIS OBISPO, March 14.-Au
signs Of the financial disturbance,
which began here on Friday, disap-
peared to-day, except the closed doors
of the two suspended banks. Matters
have resumed their normal appearance
on the street and in financial circles.
No further runs were attempted on
either of the two banks that withstood
the furry, and there were no indica-
tions of further trouble.
Commissioner Barrett concluded the
examination of the Commercial Bank
to-day. Though the showing is not as
favorable as that of the County Bank,
the depositors are amply protected
and will receive every dollar they have
in the institution. The stockholders.
however, will suffer much more heav-
lily than those of the County Bank.
Where the statement of the Bank Com
missioner showed that the capital of
the County Bank had been impaired to
the extent of about S66,500, the same
authority indicates that that of the
Commercial has been impaired to the
amount of $136,500. The condition of
the bank as ascertained to-day is as

dition since last report is made. and the
General says:
1T is gratifying to note that the Gov
ernment has authorized a military force
which seems commensurate with its re-
quirements, magnitude, and institutions.
| have for years recommended the adoption
of a standard in proportion to the popula-
ton, viz, not to exceed one soldier to every
1000 of the population, and | believe that
the establishment of such a standard
would be safe and judicious in every re-
spect. During the past few years rapid
progress has been made in the equipment
of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts
with modern defenses,, and if the general
plan is carried out, it is hoped that in a
short time our coasts will be in a proper
condition for defense"

A Shot in Time.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Nothing
gives me more pleasure than to learn that
some worthy comrade has received public
acknowledgment for brave deeds performed
in defending the old flag, or in aiding and
protecting some comrade who by the for
tunes of war had been placed at the mercy
of the foe and exposed to almost certain
death When ! learned that Serg't Chand-
Ter. oath \. Y. Cav, had been given n medal
of honor for saving the life of comrade at
Amelia Springs, Va, April 5, 1865, not
only rejOiced, but was back again in recollec-
tion with the immortal Army of the Poto-
mac; for, while the noble men who composed
it will pass away, the Army of the Potomac
in name and deed will live forever.
Serg't Chandler was not only brave and
chivalrous comrade, but good shot as
well, as the following incident at Kappa
hammock Station in '62 will show: The
we of the Engineer Corps, of which Sergt
Chandler was member. were ordered the
same evening to build bridge above the
railroad at the edge of the timber. We
finished it in the morning Just in time to
save some of our troops. who crossed 1t
under fire. AS soon as we had finished
this bridge we were ordered to destroy the
railroad bridge. On reaching it we found
that the rebs had guns covering It. and
objected to our building fires on it.
Soon after reaching the bridge brigade
of Johnnies moved up and deployed in line
of-battle, advanced. and lay down in an old
ditch. While marching to their position an
officer on white horse rode in front Of the
line. directing the movement. Our boys be-
gan to fire in reply to the rebels, and just as
they reached the ditch our boys set up
shout. Looking up saw what looked like
a white horse partly hidden in the grass and
weeds; but the officer on a horse was no
where TO be seen. ] was out on the bridge
putting light-wood on the fire and could see
every part of the line held by the rebs.
Serg't Chandler was given the credit at the
time of killing the horse and perhaps
wounding the officer.

turned traveller who could add to the gen.

nett, one of our most efficient Guides, one
who was always glad to be numbered with
these members in all the itineraries made
during the time he was Guide
For years Miss Georgia Snow was the
efficient Secretary of this organization, and
it has been no painless task to go over these
records graced by the touch of her pen.
She has taken her journey alone, but the
memory of her presence and records abide
with us. The venerable form of Judge
Hayden, Vice Guide, who could always be
relied on for present help in time of need,
comes up before ME. He, with Mrs. Hay
den, have been active members since our
organization, but as | write the touch of the
angels hand is upon our comrade Mrs.
Hayden, and is reckoning her 10 follow

paniou of years that has travelled with her
on life'S journey has come to the parting of
the ways, and so another name will be
added to those who wait on the other side to
greet us travellers as we make this journey
one by one.
While we call them up one by one, each
familiar face and name, and while this
paper can only touch upon a small part ac-
cOmpllShed in these IS years OF work, in
fact. comparatively nothing has been said
OF the magnificent work of the membership;
but the letters we receive year by year from
the living, show how closely friendships
knit together, and memories OF the evenings
spent with this club are rich in results, for
they always took away something that
they did not bring.
To all those comrades whose eyes fall
upon this sketch. remember that you have
passed in vision during this writing, and
when your travels bring you to the old
tenting grounds. come again at the roll-call.
Alas. how we shall miss those who will
never answer yea, When we recall the
way over which we have walked and talked
as fellow travellers through the years, our
good DR.. Gregory expressed our feelings
through it all in what he said in his closing
address on New and Old Corinth:
There were ghosts there, the air was full,
and the sea was full. We came down from
the Acro-C -Corinthus, leaving half our hearts
behind us. but bringing back what we did
not carry with us-pictures which will hang
on memory's wall through all the life that
now is, and the life which is to come"

The Reason Why.
AnSUerS.

A gentleman was riding on one of the
coaches in the Trossachs of Scotland,
when the driver said to him: 1--WE had a
coin guv me to-day 200 years old. Did you
ever see a coin 200 years old?"
90, yes" was the reply; II have one
myself 1000 years old"
"Ah," said the driver. "have yep And
he spoke no more during the rest of the
journey. ti
When the coach arrived at its destina-
ton the driver came up to the gentleman
with an intensely self-satisfied air and
said:
81 told you as we came along that had
coin 200 years old"
Yes"
And you said to me as you had one
1000 years old?"
"Yes, so / have"
Now, you be liar"
What do you mean by that?"
What do mean? Why, it's only 1899
now!"
The National tribune., 1899-11-23

AS remember, it was this way: All the
others had just fired, and Serg't Chandler
by chance fired the only shot at the time,
the others loading or resting, and so it was
quite clear that his shot had struck the
horse and it had much to do with keeping
the rebs from driving US away from the
bridge before we had destroyed it.
All the Engineer boys had staying quail
ties-like Aunt Jemima's plaster. the
more you try to pull it off the more it sticks
the faster"-and stuck to the bridge in
spite of the Johnnies till it was no longer
worth sticking to. No doubt the fall of an
officer high in command gave them a check.
