TRAINS FROM WASHINGTON
Washington, Aprlt 20 A special train
of twelvs express cars chartered by the
government, left Washington this morn
ing laden with stores collected here. Gen
eral Bell arranged for right of way over
all trains. This train i expected to make
a record on time. It is loaded with eat
ables, tents, stoves and commissary sup
plies. An effort will be made to reach
its destination in three days. Th Presi
dent has designated Secretary of Labor
Metcalf to act as an escort as a personal
representative to visit San Francisco and
ascertain what relief the governmant can
offer.
Washington, D. C April 20. The war
department continue to receive appeal
for relief from person who live in the
immediate vicinity of the coast forts. They
complain that the peace and quiet of their
habitations are disturbed, and that the
shock or jar that attends the firing of the
big guns contributed to th discomfort of
th neighbor of the coast defense works.
me war department always taxe these
complaints under advisement and submits
them to the artillery officer locally inter
ested. In every case it has been shown
that the complaint have come from
people who have taken advantage of the
bargain offered in real estate located
close upon coast forts. They get th land
cheap because it is within the zone of sen
sation, so to speak, of the big guns when
they are fired. The gun must be kept
in practice, and there must be firing at
the target at the period prescribed by
the war department authorities, and com'
plaints make no difference in the scheme
of maintaining the efficiency of artillery
fire.
