SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 12,-Major Fran
els G. v. Keesling, commanding the first
battalion of coast artillery, California
National Guard, of San Francisco, has
resigned. His resignation has been
promptly followed by that OF the fol-
lowing officers of his staff: Lieutenant
Joseph O'Hara, the adjutant Of the bat
TALON; Lieutenant C. Edward Gilman, the
quartermaster; Lieutenant l.. r. Golfer,
ecommissary and assistant surgeon; DR..
Frank S. Emmett. 1t is also on the boards
that the designations OF the line officers of
the battalion will be in the hands OF the
adjutant general of the state within
twenty-four hours.
The reasons assigned for these wholesale
designations OF the officers OF the guard is
that they have not been able to procure for
their men suitable and proper equipment
and they think 1t is folly to attempt TO hold
up the membership of their commands
without getting the clothing for the men.

that this will be the last term Of the

several thousands in the labor exchange
to return until the eight hour day was
accorded. The worst hour OF the day
was toward five O'Clock this evening
when the police practically lost control
and was compelled to rely on mounted
troops. Later they swept around the
Palace De La Requblique, driving the
disorderly crowds into the surrounding
streets. Most of the mob sought re-
fuge in the Boulevarde De Magenta and
at the Quai De Valmy, which has be-
come center for disorders. Her trum-
pets sounded and reueated commands
were given to the crowd to disperse, and
the cavalry galloped into the crowds,
trampling and injuring many. BY six

Tonight vehicular traffic is completely
