Three more men of Col. Henry J. Reilly's One Hundred and Forty-ninth field artillery were named in the casualty list issued by the war departmen at Washington yesterday. In the list of "Died of Disease" was carried the name " Johnnie Wright," a pneumonia victim. A careful check of the complete roster of the regiment disclosed that there was no "Johnnie" but that there was a Don E. Wright, member of Battery B. Parents Out of City. Parents of Don E. Wright were found to be living in widely separated parts of the United States -- the father, Dr. L. O. Wright, in San Jose, Cal., and the mother, Mrs. E. A. Klingenberg, at Milwaukee. Messages of inquiry were dispatched by THE TRIBUNE, but replies had not been received at a late hour last night. Wright's Chicago address was given as 3120 Calumet avenue.
