The above is part of an order re cently issued fiom the department headquarters which has ctoated no end of excitement among the war soldiers, or as they are better known, "the rookies" When It Hist became known that Secietaty Alger was coming to San Juan, a number ot schemes were concocted witli a view to seeming an Interview with so distinguished a per son.

However, notwithstanding all tho ptecautlons used, a private from Com pany G, Eleventh Infantry, succeeded In personally Intel viewing the seo.ro tar.v's private secretary. He made an eloquent plea in favor of those who enlisted for war service only and asked why the government still kept them here against their wishes In a foreign clime, instead of allowing them to return to theli homes and the employment they had left. Peace had long since been uitifled and according to the terms of their en listment had been concluded. The re sult of the interview was that before Secietary Alger left he had given oi deis to discharge the recruits. Secretary of War Russell A.
