Tho other half of the brigade, the
Second battnllon of tho Thirty-fourth

leave Saturday. The Yale and Har
vard will convey them to the fiont.
Other latencies ftom here will follow
as fast as transports can be secured,
The recruiting detail returned to
camp at G.30 tonight, bringing the last
of tho recruits, a dozen In numbe;,
with them. Thomas Miles, the new
chief musician, vvas one of them. The
band went out this evening on dress
patade and made n good Impression,

under any conditions It Is not to bo
undeiotond that the commlsslonol olll
ceis in o nil guilty of abusing the pilv
llege, although some of them doubt
lessly hao It Is lather tho dealers
who hau ti mispressed the rules They
bi ought their dellveiy wagoiiH In'o
camp loaded with beer assuring the
proost that they would not sell to
nnjbodv but commissioned olllrei.
Oiup inside the lines and out of sight
of the provoit they told to w hoevi r
would buy, the only condition being
that they pi cent an ordei from .1
commissioned olllcer for whatever they
wanted to puichiie Printed fotnn
weie distributed and ai anj body could
get hold of these It did not tH'v" the
i nllsted men ciy tong to lnv them

tate to sleze a many of these ordcis
as weie bi ought to them, but when
.in oillcer's slgnauie was not forth
coming the pilvnte would foige It and
as the beer men did not hac clotc"--tlves
around to loo out tin tlip" f"r
grilee, the men sodii learned thit cjen
ulne orders weie no more cfTiriiciuJi
than forged onri and as a consequence
there was after a time no teitrlctlon
whatever on the sale of beer,
In addition to this the vnp was
overrun with walking saloons gan3
of men canylng whiskey flasks in their
pockets and selling them to the men lit
secluded places about the grounds.
Wagons also brought loads of the stuff
to the adjacent groves nnd did a thriv
ing business selling liquor by the quart
nnd even gallon. Scaicely a day pass

made by the piovoet's men, sometimes
as high ns seven culprits being cuptur
ed In one day, ns was the case yester
day and again last Saturday. These
are turned over to the civil authori
ties. How Genernl Graham propises
to successfully enfoice the new ruta Is
n cllfflcult thing to see, but as he Is a
very ditei mined man nnd generally
succeeds In what he sets out to do it
is likely the liquor traffic In Camp
