MAJOR DANES PASSES
AWAY AT PRESIDE
Well-Known Artillery Officer, Who
Came From Manila on Meade,
= Succumbs to Illness.

Major II. c. Danes. Artillery Corps
United States army. died last night al
the General Hospital. Preside, from an
affection of the kidneys Major Danes
arrived from Manila ten days ago on the
transport Meade. He had been i'll for
some time previous to his arrival on the
transport and for few days after he
reached home appeared to be regaining
his strength.
Last Friday, however, he was seized
with an acute attack of kidney troubls
that rendered him unconscious and VI
to the time of his death he had not re-
gained consciousness.
Major Danes was very well known
here, having been stationed at the Pre-
sidio and Fort Scott for some time pre-
yious to the departure of the old Third
Artillery for China. He left here at the
outbreak of the trouble in China and took
an active part after his arrival In the
Orient In all the engagements participated
in by the Third Artillery. From China
he went to Manila, and the climate of
the last named place undermined his
health, necessitating his return home.
Major Danes was one OF the best
liked officers in the artillery corps. He
enjoyed the esteem of his fellow officers
and was beloved by his men.
Major Danes wife, who resided at Alca-
traz while her husband was abroad, was
at his bedside when he passed away.
Major Danes graduated from the acad-
envy In 1867. Among his classmates was
