San Francisco Call. This wsr In the Philippines has aav.-d an Francisco and the coast gen erally from eerious commercial disas ter." Thiu declared Hugh Craig, and a a well-known business man. a former memoer of the chamber of commerce, te ought to know what he Is talkng about Why, you can ace for youraelf," he continues, "how this war broke outi just at the most opportune time for us. Now don't quote me as approving of war; that Is quite another thing alto gether. But If we must have war, It would be folly to blind ourselves to the benefits our city has derived and Is still deriving from it. When hoauUtiea commenced the Klondike boom had Just fallen through, and it looked as if we were going to suffer a severe reac tion. In anticipation of a continued rush to the froten regions of the north, many of our merchants had laid in heavy stocks, labor bad flocked to the City in the hope of profitable employ ment, large steamers, such as the Pennsylvania and the Ohio, bad been brought around from the East to share in the anticipated profits of the Klondike trade. The market was glut ted in. every way with surplus tonnage, surplus (roods and surplus labor. "Dewey's victory at Manila and thej subsequent occupation of the Philip-1 pines cnangea ail inis who magic rap-j Idlty. Trrops poured Into the city, and. money began to circulate freely. The torts and saloons were filled with po tential heroe. the strvet car lines ub orbedy nickels with avidity. All the aiwme snips were eitner cnar.erea or boiight by the government and to-j day San Francisco Is the home port for, the largest fleet U transport in the ; world. The few steamers left were hardly sufficient to keep the regular coasting lines going and the lucky owners reaped large profits. Why, to give you an Instance, the stock of the Oceanic Steamship Company hns leap ed from about H9 to !). where it now stands." It Is obvious that nearly every class of business Is lntivwted In supplying ire needs of the small army which I constantly within our borders. The number of men In camp at the Presi dio has averaged about eight thousand, and at present there are some eleven thousand. Each of these men, soldier fashion, spends his pay as fast as he gets It, while many, with private means of their own. spend far more than the pittance doled out by Uncle . . , , , ,. Sam to th? men who risk their live Ir. his service. Then, of course, tht ; oP.cers have far more money to burn thar. the privates. But nay that each man spends only $15 a month, which gee Into the pocknts of our retail j dealers. The sal ion keeper, I ami afraid, get most of It, but still there Is : 7 ' . .. i a lot of It left over for otner people. All soldk-rs do not drink, but In the case nf disbanded volunteers each man has to spend a considerable sum In providing himself with a complete civi lian outllt. to replace his war-stained uniform. This makes things lively for the outfitters. "Soldiers come and go here all day, said a big Market strwt dealer, as fc!ta; year no less than 20.000 000 pounds pointed to a string of khakl-clad men'0j freight. . U .. . A . ...... I ,1.. V.

Hut this individual outlay of the I soldiery, though It amounts up to quite respectab e sum In the total Is butnavc f)M xMr of a drP In the bucket compared with L an(, ,,rl(Kl the vast d.rect expenditure- of the (lf a kn,,g hf)g )n government on ships and supplies. Inl,mnrw, pmctlce. there are two grvat spndliiK departments the quartermaster's and tbe subsistence. The n.nvrteririast:r has ervilre control of the tninsrort service. He buys or charters ships, fits them out for sea and supplies them with sll that is needful for the voyage, except eat.ibtfs. Kverythlng that you I'tit In your mouth whether by eating, di inking or smoking, must come from the uUienee department; everything that you use In any other way from the quartermaster. l.el us take the transport service tin, as belli far the most Important. i Tne big whiie painted si. amors ne been coming In and going out of the Golden vTate, tor so many months that the public has grown quite accustomed to this constant movement of troo,, and fall to realise Us magnitude. The Orant. the Sherman, the Sheridan and a doavn other huse vessels :eil si lently up to the FolsMn strwt dock, discharge their living cargoes, take on bml another consignment of fowl for powder and are off again for the seat uf war, almost before anyone valll. what in happening. The Folsom street wharf, now dedicated entirely to the government service, ha become a per fect hive .if Industry'- In the nrly days of the war the transports were siat- j tered here, there and every where aiorg the water frvnu. The separation of thej ship led to confusion and delay and involved much extra expense. The chaotic state of affairs could not last long. As soon as It was seen that the war In the Philippines was Ilk ly to becon e u permanent Institution, a con stant drain upon the resources of this count rv, the government took steps t' secure a fixed home for Its transports. The FoNom stiver dock, probably one of the bet on the front, was I at'.ded wr to the quartermaster, and under the management of Captain Harneson, the chief of the dock, s thoroughly I efficient staff has been organize I. No matter how great a rush th. re may be, affairs at ahe d'ck move with the or derly regularity of military s ri Ice. The department does all its own steve doring, and employs on occasions hun dreds of longshorvmen. For the use of this wharf alone the harbor com missioners receive J1S7 a month. In addition to this the government pays wharfage dues on ail transports at any of ithe docks. Thus the Sherman. hen In pert pays the state of California abort JK a day.the Grant J15, the Sher idan IIS and so on for smaller v-ssels. The pll its. too, have benefited Immens ly by the transport service. As they are paid by fees, according to the ton nage of the vessels nhey guide In and. out of port, their earnings have been largely increased by the advent of these big government vessels. Rut perhaps the best Idea of the ex tent of the operations now being enr- rIed on may gtheKd from a ,.. Di .... ., th tr9.nBnoPt, .h,,,h hav. left this harbor for Manila. Since May. Iat year, no less than 85 vessel I have sailed, carrying altogether the I population of a decent sized city mor ,Kln fifty thousand ofTicers and. men. ,n WWUm there are the troops which hllve M:urned; but as their arrival h8l) i,, rnt x wU1 nct , oncern that otherwise the boom of the ad This makes a total, up to the lasH mlra, for the pemocratle rrvsl.l-ntlal date, of so ships and 52.30S officers and men. in aauition to tnis some cign(en transports are scheduled to sal! during the present month, and many of them will probably have got away by the time this article appears In print. It Is no wond ?r that the expenses of the department are hmvy. Colonel Long Informed me that the government spent on the transport service, on this const alone, from the commencement of the war up to June 30. the end of the fiscal year, more than 112, 000,000. The sum does not Include the purchase price paid for ships bought outriBht by the nation. This means an average outlay of tl.r.-iO.ltoo a month, a sum which at present Is considerably exceeded. If we turn to the subsistence depart ment we Hnd things being done on an equally hug' scale. The cost of f -ed-Injr soldiers comes to about it a month, so that the monthly expenditure on 8.000 men camped tut the Presidio would run - ncarlv f"Jl Aftrt Thnn .... .nereiu. m I'mwiuerauiy exceetieo. i .... ....... . . .
