Walls, Ninth Cavalry, from the Presidio is causing much uneasi ness among the colored troops at the post, ' Where he i or what has hap pened to him nobody connected with the squadron knows. It la now nearly ten days since he has been seen by his comrades, Previous, to that time he had been seeking- th flowing bowl pretty freely, and for the first few days after his disappearance it was thought he had gone downtown to finish his spree. As time wore on and he failed to show up, a diligent search of his favorite haunts was made, but without success. Yesterday a rumor reached the post that a fisherman had stated that the day before, white he was coming in from sea, he had seen the body of a colored soldier floating In the bay with some sort of yellow braid on the arm of his coat sleeve, which, from the dls croption, corresponded with the chev ron worn on Wall's uniform. The fish erman stated that the day was rough end stormy and the light dull, and that before he could put about the body had disappeared. This may possibly be a solution of the mystery. An examination of Wall's account and effects showed every thing to be In order, the only, thing missing being a pistol Walls was very popular with his company. He was n me oai ui Santiago de Cuba, where he fought valiantly and was severely wounded.
