MARINE:
Can't Come Ashore.

Because a warrant officer was afraid
they wouldu t or cOuldn't come home
in the dark all the navy men aboard
the transport Crook which arrived at
s O'Clock last evening from San Fran.
cisco, were kept on ship last night.
That there was considerable dissatis.
faction aboard the vessel was apparent
when the warrant officer in charge of
200 sailors going through was giving
orders to petty officers as to the man
ner in which they should prevent any
of the men from jumping ship. He
said that he eOuldn I think of letting
a couple of hundred men ashore in this
''small town all within twenty-four
hours, and said the regulations per-
mitted only one-half a ships compa-
ny going ashore at one time. The
warrant officer considered that the same
discipline should prevail aboard the
transport, where none of the men are
employed, just as aboard a warship
AT any rate, double guards were post
ed to prevent any exodus.
The Crook had pleasant passage
from the Coast, the only rough wealth
er being encountered the first day out.
The vessel will probably get away at
5 o clock this afternoon, unless some
thing unforeseen happens, according to
Depot Quartermaster Humphrey. The
Crook is commanded by Captain Viii
liams, with Captain Ashburn, Coast Ar
tillery. as quartermaster captain, MAX
ing his first trip. The artillery corps
officers are now taking turns as quar-
termasters of the transports. For Ho- |
