NO CHECK IS KEPT
Easy for Brownsville Troops
to Get Ammunition.
LEFT LYING AROUND LOOSE
Quartermaster Admits Carelessness,
but no Springfield Cartridges
in Fort Hostility or ' Citizens
to the Xegro Troops.
WASHINGTON, March 13. When the
Twenty-sixth infantry was transferred
from BrownBville. Tex., to make room for
the negro soldiers of the Twenty-fifth
infantry, the white soldiers left behind
many auits of cast-oft khaki uniforms
and shells, cartridge and bandoliers
lying about loose In storehouses and bar
racks. This important testimony was given
today before the committee on military
affairs by Rowland Osborne, the white
post Quartermaster-General at Fort
Brown during the occupation of the post
both by the Twenty-fifth and Twenty
sixth infantry. Osborne did nothing con
cerning the loose ammunition and clothing
except to take 40 rounds of Krag-Jorgen-sen
cartridges, which he still has at Fort
Sam Houston, he says. His recollection
was that all of the ammunition which he
saw at Fort Brown after the departure
of the Twenty-sixth infantry was Krag
Jorgensen ammunition, but he would not
state positively that there were no
Springfield cartridges left behind.
On cross-examination he said it was a
very simple matter for soldiers to get
extra ammunition, as, when they were
on the range for practice or target shoot
ing other than competition shooting, close
check was not made of the actual num
ber of shots fired by soldiers. The soldiers
were expected to turn back the ammuni
tion not used, but there was no way to
be sure that they had done so.
Captain B. J. Edgert. Jr., who was
Assistant 'Surgeon at Fort Brown with
th Twenty-sixth Infantry until July 5.
1906. told of the hostility of the people
of Brownsville to the coming of the negro
troops. He corroborated other white
officers in their statements that the
citizens, with few exceptions, were of a
character not desired as associates for
refined people.
II OUT OF BOXING GAME
NICKEN AND HENRY W1LI, NOT
GO TO SPOKANE MEET
Johnson, Merta and Walsh Chosen to
Represent Multnomah in Intcr
club Contexts Next Month.
Multnomah' adherents received a severe
jolt last night when it was announced
that neither Nicken, the 125-pound boxer,
nor Henry, the ll.-pound whirlwind, wiil
he able to enter the Northwest meet or
the inter-club meet between Multnomah
and Spokane next month. This practical
ly means that neither will -appear In the
squared circle again this season. Both
Henry and Nicken are considered the best
In their respective classes in the club
and both were counted on as sure win
ners. All the men who will represent Multno
mah in the inter-club meet at Spokane.
April 12. were selected last night and will
so Into training at once. Ed Johnson will
wrestle at 175 pounds and the locals ex
pect to capture this event In a walk,
as Johnson is considered the best on the
Coast at his weight. He has won a
number of hard matches. Tony Merta
will be sent in the 135-pound boxing class.
He is not well known as a boxer but
has shown up In great form since In
structor Acton took him in hand. He is
a rugged, speedy hitter and will be a
hard nut to crack for any man in his
class. Jack Walsh, one of the club's
most reliable men, will box at 13S. It
will be the first appearance of Walsh this
season but he has won many contests In
the past and Is a veteran at the boxing
game.
The other event, as selected by Mult
nomah, will be the ITO-pound wrestling
event. While It has been reported that
Edgar Frank will go on for this bout, it
Is not an assured fact by any means that
he will do so. In the first place it is
doubtful whether he will be able to
reach Spokane in time for the meet and
he will hardly be in condition after going
through a championship tournament.
Added to this will be a five-days' trip
across the continent from New York to
Spokane. Should Frank be unable to
enter, his place will be taken by E. D.
Smith. J. S. Killeen or William M.
Killeen. all of whom are showing up in
fine form.
Dranga. Hughes and French will be
sent to the Northwest boxinB and wres
tling tournament, which will be held at
Spokane March 20.

WILL TRAIN IN PENDLETON
Aberdeen Players Will Establish
Eastern Oregon Camp.
ABERDEEN, Wash.. March 13.
(Special.) Dick Boettiger, one of
Aberdeen's pitchers, has received an
offer to play with Vancouver. It has
been practically decided that the Aber
deen Ball Club will train at Pendleton.
Manager Brown is afraid that weather
conditions here may not be right for
preliminary work, and rather than run
the risk of starting: the -season without
the necessary practice, he will probably
accept Pendleton's terms.
It is planned to return to Aberdeen
from Pendleton two days before the
season opens and on Sunday to play an
exhibition game here. The best local
talent and the extra men on the club
will line up against each other and
the fans will be given an opportunity
to see the new stars in action.
SEEKING A PLACE FOR TRAPS
Multnomah Rod and Gun Club Is
Without a Home.
Members of the Multnomah Rod and
Gun Club are without a home. For some
time past the officials have been looking
for a place to locate their traps and blue
rocks, but the rapid growth of the city
has made it practically Impossible for
them to get a shooting ground within an
hour's ride of the city. Formerly the
traps were placed in the woods back of
the Irvington race track and when the
club moved there many of the members
thought they had a home for at least a
dozen years. They were mistaken, for
the residences began springing up all
around the club grounds and they were
forced to abandon it. The officials of the
club will call a meeting within the next
two weeks and at this meeting it is ex
pected that a place for trap shooting
will then be decided upon.
