mander of the Eastern Department, \
Visited the Officers' Training Camp |
here yesterday and issued a decree
eliminating: all drinking within the I
camp. In addition, he instructed the |
regular army officers in charge of
the camp to report to the Command- •
ing Officer all violations of this rule. !
In every instance where drinking is;
discovered the man will be sum
marily dismissed from camp. One!
man was court-martialed and sent!
home to-day for reporting to his j
company officer In an intoxicated j
condition, llis place will be filled by !
a prospective officer who will be j
more honor to the service.
General Bell reached camp just
before retreat. All companies were i
called out and stood at attention '
while a salute of thirteen guns was j
rendered to the general In honor of
his rank.
The reserve officers who hold com- ;
missions will be reduced to the ranks ;
to-morrow in order that all the men j
in cam pmay have the opportunity
of getting the experience In com-1
manding men that will count in pre
paring thirty per cent, of the enroll-;
merit of the fourteen training camps
to drill the first increment of draftees
that will be ordered into camp in
August.
Raw winds prevail on the shores i
iof I.ake Ontario and the temporary
[barracks in which the men are quar
tered are nope too warm. Grumbling
ill betits prospective officers, how
ever, and all accept th# situation
stoically. The preparations for the
camp have been carried out splen
didly and every company headquar
ters, fitted out with modern lighting
and telephone systems, is an import
ant link in the preparedness chain
which is tightening about the United
States.
Every man in camp who is not
an officer was required to take the
oath of allegiance to the United
States of America to-day and the
next step will be to preclude all pos
sibility of disease by giving the en
tire camp doses of antitoxin against
typhoid and smallpox. No smoking
is permitted in any of the buildings
and every care Is being taken to de
velop the discipline and esprit de
corps that has made West Point the
marvel of many nations.

two additional Inoculations against;

little sickness from the Inoculations. |
The total count in the hospital was; j

Several carloads'of medicinal sup

! arrived and the hospital is ready to
| meet any emergency. The camp is
| having some difficulty in getting sutf
, plies, as there are no adequate trans-

j lem is a difficult one. Tho greater

I by \'oungstown dealers, but owing
Ito the high prices and the limited
