GERMANS
FEAR FOR
The TROOPS
Anxiety Over Losses
Increases in
Berlin.

BERLIN, April 2e.-The very greatest
anxiety is being aroused here by the
apparently critical condition of things
In German Southwest Africa.
After heavy losses suffered by the
German columns at the hands of in
surgent Herreros comes the news that
typhus fever is raging among the
troops. practically paralyzing offensive
action. The losses to the column under
command of Major Won Glasenapp
since March Is amount to go per cent
of the officers and 35 per cent of the
rank and file. Colonel Durr, command
er of another column, has left South
west Africa and is on his way home.
According to one account, he had diff
ferences of opinion with Colonel Lieut.
vein, the Governor. According to an
other report, he is returning for rea-
sons of i'll health.
Private letters received from mem.
bers of the expeditionary corps pub
lished in Berlin newspapers record an
extraordinary state of things. Wher
Colonel Durr landed in Southwest
Africa he learned that the force OF
marine infantry he was to command
had been split up into four small bodies
and scattered all over the country. SD
that he found himself in the position
of commander without troops. But
worse was still TO come. He could not
get military stores and munitions land
ed and pushed rapidly to the front be-
cause German custom-house officers in
sisted on levying duty on them. The
officials insisted on appropriating six
out of every eight wagons for forward
ing wine and beer to private dealers
up country, with the result that the
army and medical stores Indispensable
ct the front were left lying in docks
for days and far the greater part were
stolen.

Statement.
Special Dispatch to The Cali.

WASHINGTON, April PA special
board which inquired into charges
filed against Lieutenant Commander
Fidelio S. Carter has reported TO the
Navy Department that they find him
physically, morally and mentally dis
qualified for promotion"
Carter had applied for promotion to
the grade Of commander. He was re-
Gently charged with disobedience OF or
oers while with the Asiatic squadron in
the Philippines, but the charges were
dismissed by the department It is ex-
pected In some quarters that the de-
partment win not approve the findings
OF this last board. In case they do
the only thing left 10 be done will be
20 wholly retire Carter from the navy
with one years pay.
II is said that the department is Of
the opinion that there is prejudice
against Carter. At least that is the
reason given in some quarters for the
dismissal Of the charges that were
brought against him in the Philippines
The findings in the case OF Carter
are very unusual and a surprise to
naval officers. They are about as Sc
we're as have ever been brought against
an ofncer In the history Of the navy.

arrived at an hour somewhat unex-

of plans for a more elaborate demon
stration by thousands who had planned
to go down to the river to meet them,
the greeting to the craft was neverthe-
less fitting. AS the ships came into the
harbor they were greeted by chorus of
whistles and shouts of welcome from
crowds on excursion steamers. Salutes
were fired in answer. after which

and boarded the Nashville.

This mornings meeting of the di-
rectors of the United Railroads will

strike of the car operators in this city
International President Mahon of the
union yesterday sent to President Hol-
land of the United Railroads a formal
letter requesting that in view of the
seriousness of the situation, which
would involve the United Railroads, its
employees and the public, the company
agree to submit the issues involved to
three representative citizens of San
Francisco, each side to choose one
member of the board and these to Sc
1ect the third.
The officials Of the United Railroads
announced after the receipt of the let
ter that they could give no answer
until this morning. At 10 o'clock a
meeting of the directors will be held
and the matter determined upon. This
early meeting is in Difference to the re-
quest of Mahon that an answer be re-
turned before noon to-day

pared to proceed in carrying out their
