FLAGS At HALF MAST
No Cheers Greeted the Arrival of
the Senator.
DEATH OF A BRAVE MAN
Pennsylvania Boys Shed Tears as the
Body OF Their Dead Colonel Was
Placed In the Hearse-Given
a Guard of Honor.

San Francisco. Aug. THE docking
of the transport Senator to-day was
unaccompanied by the blowing of
steam whistles and the ringing of bells.
There was no cheering as the vessel
made fast to the dock. The death of
Colonel Hawkins seemed to have i'm
pressed every one in unusual manner
and along the water front flags hung
at half mast out of respect to the dead
colonel.
Later in the day a detachment of SOL
diers carried the casket containing the
remains from the transport to wait
ing hearse. Heads were barred and not
few of the Pennsylvania boys shed
tears as the coffin was silently placed
in the hearse to be taken to a local I'M
dertakers establishment. A detach-
ment of II men and an officer escorted
the hearse through the streets of the
city. There was no other military DEM
onstration, but a guard will watch con-
stantly beside the casket, and when
the remains are placed on board the
cars for shipment East a guard will be
detailed to accompany it.
Tomorrow morning the Pennsylva-
mia boys will be given a chance to
stretch their legs in the city. 1t has
been decided that the men will spend
but one more night on the transport
and that they shall march to the bar
racks at the Preside tomorrow under
the escort of the returned Oregon, Utah
and Nebraska troops, who are already
comfortably located o. the Preside.
Tonight the committee of Pennsyl-
vanianS who will make the arrange
ments for the transportation of the
troops to their homes, will arrive here.
General Shafter has invited these COM
mitteemen to be with him tomorrow
when he reviews the parade as it passes
up Van Ness avenue to the Preside.

WAR ON FOOD PRODUCTS
German Agitators at Their Work
Again.
MORE RABID THAN EVER
Trying to Create Public Sentiment Ad-
verse to All American Food Ar
ticles - A More Rigid
Inspection.

Washington, Aug. agents of the
Agricultural department who are in
Germany report increased activity on
the part of the agitators who are exert
Ing their influence to curtail to the
minimum the importation of American
food products into that country. While
these reports are not made public, it is
known that they represent that greater
effort than ever before will be made to
secure from the next meeting of the
reichstag statute providing for an
inspection by agents of the German
government of all American products
which shall be so strict as to ignore
the certificates of American inspec-
ton.
The agitation is conducted independ-
entity by the agrarians and it is stated
that the press is being used 10 quite an
unwonted extent to create public SEN
timent adverse to all American food
articles. Especial attention is given to
our beef and liberal use made of the
testimony taken before the war inves-
sigatng committee and the beef court
of inquiry. This agitation in itself has
had the effect of reducing German con-
sumption of our meat products, but the
officials here are not especially appre-
hensive of legislation.

the Street Cars.

Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 1.-The police

the detectives.
Several days ago well digger named
Stokes. living at Nottingham, a suburb,
told the police that a street railway
man had tried to purchase dynamite
from him. The report was investigated
and the arrest of Schoenthal followed.
The prisoner admits he is the man who
approached Stokes, but he says he
made the inquiry a t the instance of an
other man whose name he did not know.
He says he was approached by the
stranger, who asked him if he knew
where 10 pounds of dynamite could be
purchased. The prisoner told the
stranger that he knew a man in Not
tingham who used dynamite and he
might have some to sell. Thereupon he
went to Nottingham. saw Stokes. but
failed to get the order filled. He re-
ported his failure to the stranger, ac-
cording to his story, and that was the
end of the matter.
The police will not say what they
think of the story, but they declare
they are not yet through with the in
vestigation and they look upon the ar
rest as an important one. Schoenthal

Bankrupt Act Not Popular.

New York, Aug. 1.-The bankruptcy act
has been in operation a year, and during
that time there have been filed in this
city 1881 petitions with the clerk of the
United States district court, and 100 dis
charges have been granted. The act has
not been popular, as was expected. Esti-
mates were made when the act was passed
that from 5000 to 1900 would take adyan-
tage of it the first year, and it was be-
lieved that there are at least 600 per-
sons in this city with judgments hanging
over them. The clerk of the United States
district court, who has charge of the petit
lions, says that the number of the petit
tions filed in the past year is short about
400 in comparison with the frs year of
the old bankrupt act in 1867, when over
l. 100 petitions were filed.
