Lieutenant Betchcr Puts the Men of
ihe Reserve Through an
Ordna-ce Drili.
The monitor Camanche after twenty
years of sleep aroused herself Rip Van
Winkle-like yesterday and took a look
around her. The old ship saw that many
changes had taken place while she lay at
her moorings. Fleets in evolution had
sailed by her, and not even the swell of
their motion had disturbed her deep rest.
Scene Inside the Camanche's Turret Showing the Naval Reserve Drilled at the Two 15-Inch Guns
by Lieutenant Beecher of the Monadnock.
[Sketched by a "Call" artist.]
Steam has taken the place of sail and
wooden hulls have turned to steel while
j her own has gathered the shellclad barna
) cle and the saline vee< tation of the sea.
Yesterday her lonu stationary turret
wheeled on its pivot and her saw out
j through their narrow ports the Monad
'. nock lying near. As she was closing her
eyes twenty years ago at Mare L-land they
were rivptinp the new monitor's gretit
metal ribs in place, and tlien she shim
; bered while her young sister was growing
beam by beam and plate by plate. When
the Camanche awoke she saw the noble
white structure frowning at her from off
the starboard beam. And the two great
15-incii guns ran their amootli muzzles out
of the turret ami returned the frown. The
spirit of tbe fiery 'GO's lives in the ancient
marine yet.
It was Assistant Engineer Read of the
Monadnock, with a fireman and a coal
heaver, that stirred up the old fighter yen- j
terday. They turned some bay water into
an empty boiler, shoveled a couple ol tons
of coal into three furnaces, and noon the
steam was hissine In the auxiliary eiißine
and the great black funnel was smoking
likea blockade runner. Then Lieutenant \
J. M. Roper of the Monadnock took hip '
place in ihe' turret and threw back the j
revolving lever. There was an ominous j
movement in tbe cylinders, a trembling
down in the machinery, a groaning of the
great steel central abaft on which the

heavy mass turns, and the iron structure
whicli the Confederate tars on the Merri
mac called a cbeese-box when they fir3t
sighted the original monitor coming at
them, swung around.
The motion was slow on the first revolu
tion, but after the machinery got limbered
up it whined easily and swiftly with its
own great weight ana that of tne two big
15-inchers.
Lieutenant Roper trained the guns on
the Philadelphia' and then on his own
vessel and seemed to enjoy handling the
old-fashioned war toy.
"Turn on the steam again, Read," be
yelled to his brother officer after a short
pause, "and let us give her another whirl.
I haven't had so much fun for years. It's
good as a 'merry-go-round.' Get aboard
and let's have another ride."
So Engineer Reed opened the throttle
again and the lieutenant swung the turret,
himself and his passenger through all the
points of the compass.
Later in the afternoon Lieutenant-Corn
mader Turner and a number of the officers
and men of tbe Naval Reserve came
aboard. They were formed into crews ior
the two great guns and instructed in ord
nance by Lieutenant A. M. Beecher of the
Monadnock. The young fellows went
through the drill of loading, running out
♦he pieces, firing, sponging, reloading and
training the guns of the revolving tur
ret with all the serious '-make believe" of
battle.
Down in the wardroom Lieutenant Tur
ner entertained the officers and newspaper
men at lunch and questioned Lieutenant
Roper upon the remaining warlike possi
bilities of the old monitor.
"Keeping tbe men aboard of the vessel
as much as possible," said tbe lieutenant.
"will make them thoroughly acquainted
with the monitor and their general ship
duties. I was talking with your signal
quartermaster when I first came aboard
and I found that he knew more about tbe
Cumancbe than I did and gave me a deal
of information. This craft is not by any
I means a useless old hulk, for her machin
j cry is in good condition and she affords an
; excellent drilling-place for the battalion.
Those two euns could be used at clot c
rantre with considerable efficiency.
"To fire a shell charge from them would
rip up the old aeck planking under th ••
muzzles of tha guns, but powder charges
could be fired in saluting easily and
safely."
Engineer Read stated that the boilers
and enginei were In splendid condition,
and a comparatively small amount oi
coal would drive her through the waters at
a fair speed.
Later in the evening the fires were
drawn, the steam died down and the old
craft was left to rest from her spurt with
only the anchor watch walkiifg the deck.
Arrented for B«rglary.
Daring the year 1895 there were 420 ar
rests for burglary in this City. During
the same period the number of fire alarms
was 445. Insuranoe against loss by fire is

able property fail to have it well insured.
Burglary insurance is new, but you can

into the house for a day or two at a time,
out the Palma Christi is a sun-loving plant
and, therefore, must not be kept too long
in the shade.
A RACE BETWEEN
OCEAN STEAMERS,
The Australia and City of
Peking Bound for Hono
lulu.
AN EXCITING CONTEST.
Another Attempt Was Made to
Raise the Blairmore, and
It Failed.
CAPfAIN BURNS
Narrow Escape of the Ferry Steamer
Sausalito From Going on Arch
Rock.
Tbe old and new style of the Monitor
were brou£ht sharply into contrast. The
Monadnock that took twenty-one years to
build is nevertheless a modern ship in
every detail, but the Camanche that was
built in 1862 is now obsolete. These two
warships and the cruiser Philadelphia
form an object lesson. The. latter shows
speed in every line, while the Monadnock
is the symbol of strength. The Camanche
shows old age and decrepitude in every
part, but nevertheless she is built ot the
material that will stand repairing, and at
a pinch the old bo^t could be fixed up and
put in condition to fire another gun for
her country. Yesterday the three war
ships presented a remarkably handsome
appearance as the boats carrying the mem
bers of the Naval Battalion passed to and
from the Camancne.
The ferry steamer Sausalito had another
narrow esceD* yesterday. One of the
bucket? in her starboard paddle broke on
the early morning trip and the noise it
made in striking the paddle-box with each
revolution caused considerable consterna
tion unions the passengers. The steamer
was stopped and damages repaired, but
not before the tide had carried tSe Sausa
lito dangerously close to Arch Rock.
Several attempts have been made by the
Chamber of Commerce to get this menace
to navigation blown up, but Congress has
always refused to appropriate the money.
The Mail Company's City of Peking and
the Oceanic Company's Australia both left
for Honolulu yesterday. The Australia
had a five hours' start, but the engineers
on the Peking say they will beat her into
port and left the dock yesterday prepared
to push their vessel for all she is worth.
The Australia was not in very good trim
for a race, as sbe was down at the stern.
Even with that disadvantage if she is
opened up she will win hands down. On
the run up from Honolulu the Peking beat
tbe Australia's time by a little overr fou
hours, and the Mail Company now pro
poses to do it again. The Australia sailed
sharp at 10 a. m. and the .Peking backed
out from the docn on the stroke of 3 «\ m.
The Australia Dad the following cabin
passengers: L. C. Abies, Frederick Clift,
J. F. Eckardt, Mrs. William Clift, Miss
Abbie Bawrieu Clift, Miss M. Edwards,
Miss A. Fennane, R. C. Forsyth, Mrs. I.
Hilda, D. M. Horn, P. C. Jones, J. W.
Lenhart and wife, D. McLean, Mrs. George
Leibold, •' George C. Macfarlane, Miss N.
Mclntyre, J. McGowen, Miss Ida Roberts,
Martin Smith, S. J. Smith, Miss O. E. P.
Stokes, Miss C. P. Stokes, James Stokes,
Charles M. Taylor Jr. and wife, J. L. Tor
bert and wife, Dr. J. M. Topmoeller, B.
Topmoeller, Mrs. Twing, Miss Helen
Wilder, 8. W. Wilcox and C. L. Wight.
The Peking had about thirty passengers
in the cabin and twenty-eight Chinese in
the steerage. Amone those in the cabin
were Lieutenants Calhoun, Barron, Gib
son and Lucien Young. Two of them will
join the gunboat Yorktown at Yokohama,
und the others the Detroit at Shanghai or
Hongkong.
The schooner Moonlight is now being
fitted ont for another cruise to Mexico.
She will take certain cargo for Mexican
ports, but the real purpose of her cruise is
to search for a guano island. Years and
years ago an old sailor gave Captain Bryan
the location of the island, but he never
thought of seeking for it until a year ago.
At that time tne Moonlight was ntted out,
and after an unsuccessful search returned
and was tied up in Oakland Creek. The
schooner Vine was the next one sent out,
and after her failure another expedition
was formed. Now Captain Joachimsen
has chartered th* Moonlight for another
search. On this occasion a different course
altogether will be steered, and ne hopes to
locate the much-coveted spot.
The sailor who gave the latitude and
longitude of the island was wrecked on it
nearly twenty years ago. They patched
their ship up and reached the Mexican
coast. Until thetalK of Clipperton Island
and its gunno deposits bepan to circulate
he never thought of the lonely rock in the
Gulf of California. When he realized its
value he told Bryan, and tbe first expedi
tion in search of it was begun.
The steam schooner Excelsior is on the
Merchants' drydock having a new bronze
propeller put in. Her owners are tirea of
using the old iron ones, as the blades were
constantly breaking and chipping.
In consequence of the transfer of Cap
tain Green to the steamer State of Califor
nia several other chances were necessary.

mand of the St. Paul and Captain Con way

Coal is a drug in the market and the
steamer Willamette cannot sell her cargo,
bhe is now tied up in Mission Bay await
ing a purchaser for the black diamonds.
Another attempt to raise the Blairmore
was made yesterday and another failure
resulted. The pumps again broke down
at the critical moment and the vessel again
sank into tbe mud. The men will be
given a rest to-day and a fresh start made
to-morrow.
Captain Hawley, the popular superin
tendent of the Spreckels Towboat Com
pany, is about to take a well-earned holi
day. He is accompanied by his wife and
will co to Ben Lomond. During his ab
sence Captain Dan Haskell will look out
for the company's interests.
MADE A FIVE-DAY WEEK,
Another Move for Retrench
ment by the Railroad
Company.
Hours of Labor Reduced to Obviate
the Necessity of Laying Off
Any of the M n.
Another move in the direction of re
trenchment was made by the Southern
Pacific Company yesterday in the issu
ance of an order making a working week
consist of five days instead of the cus
tomary six. Work has been slack for
some time past, as is usual during the
summer months, and it has Seen a ques
tion of either laying some of the men off
or reducing the hours of labor. The lat
ter course was finally decided upon.
Hereafter, until further orders, Satur
day as well as Sunday will be a day of
rest for the employes engaged in the shops
of the railroad company in this) City, Sac-
I ramento, Oakland, Los Angeles and other
towns of the State in which are located
l reoair shops.
The new order of things went into
operation yesterday all ovar the State,
nnd affects in the neighborhood of 3000
men. a large majority of whom are em
ployed in Sacramento.
General Manager Julius Kruttscbnitt
had this to say regarding the situation:
"The new order will probably remain in
effect during the summer months, when
the earnings of the men are small at best.
Of course there are exceptions provided in
the order, which practically refers to the
workshops proper. The general wear and
tear of rolling stock and locomotives will
necessitate keeping the repair and naint
departments going at both Oakland and
Sacramento as heretofore."
Manager Fillmore explained matters as
follows:
"Instead of laying off a lot of men in
order to bring the expenses of the system
down to a reasonable figure, which would
no doubt have proved a hardship to many
of the men who have large families, we
concluded to give all the men a chance by
cutting out one day of the week's labor.
In this way all our workmen will have a
chance to earn wages and tie desired ends
will be accomplished by the company.
There will, however, be no change in the
hours of work."
