LOUIS, A_Large Delegation to go Frem the District—‘The Invitation to the Presi- dent. It 1s expected that there will be a large delega- tion from the Department of the Potomac at the ‘annual encampment of theG. A. R., in St. Louis, in September. The G. A. R. men will probably go ‘as the Department of the Potomac and not as Separate posts, Any post that goes as such will go as the escort of the department commander. Department Commander Burke, speaking of the agitation raised over the invitation extended to the President to visit St. Louis at the time of the encampment, said that Mr. Faunce, the adjutant general of the department, nit it just Tight, tn what be Was juoted as sdying in THE Stan. “It isan insult to Grand Army of the Republic,” he went on, “to Say that ft can or would insult the President, "The Grand Anny of the Republic will not only not insult the President, but will not permit anyone else todo it.” TheG. A. KR. be said, was nota Reg aa aM, Mae ars ith a le imself, ‘1 commander of this department 1s a dem- ocrat, and has been one all his life, The man_ who is now spoken of asthe one who will probably be the next com- Mander-in-chief is a democrat, 1 speak of Gen, Slocum. Many of the men that are the hardest hitters In the G. A. K., who have done the hardest work and made the greatest sacrifices in behalf of Union soldiers, their orphans, and their widows, are democrats.” Mr, Burke sald that the invita- ton to the President came from a committee of citizens of St. Louis, a committee that included some G. A. R.men, but who were not acting for the G A. R. The President was in- vited to come there by the citizens of St, Louls, just as the G. A, KR. had been invited to hold their encampment there, Then the Hen- dricks Club, of St; Louts a politcal Dy came forward and undertook to arrange for a re- ception to the President, and this started the trouble. The citizen’s committee said that the Occasion Was not one for a political demonstra- ton. Stories were started that this visit of the President Jo St. Louis was one for political effect. ‘There migMt have been some man in the @. A. R. who had made Indiscreet remarks, but the matter of the invitation Lo the President was one that the G. A. R. had nothing to do with at all, -o. CAVALRY FOR THE CAPITAL. Fort Myer to be Turned Into a C: alry Post. It was decided to-day that two companies of cavalry shall be permanently stationed at Fort Myer. It has not yet been settled what com- panies shall be ordered there nor when, but the much vexed question of what use to make of Fort Myer has been definitely settled. The fort has re- mained idle since it was abandoned last summer a8 a school of instruction for the Signal Service, but has been occupted by a few soldiers from the Washington barracks forthe purpose of protecting the property. The Secretary of War was fora long time undecided as to what use to make of the post. Gen. Sheridan strongly recommended that the capital of the nation should be provided with cav- alry in order that that branch of the service should be represented in the many parades and official ceremonies that are apt to take place here. thers, however, were in favor of making Fort Myer " into an _ artillery school and it was not until to- day that the question was finally decided in favor of cavalry. While nothing’ further has been determined upon, tt ts but, natural to sup- pose that Major Jus. Biddle, of the 6th cavalry, Who Was appointed commandant of the post ‘under the present admintstration, and served but short time before it was abandoned, will be again stationed there under the new arrangements, and will be placed fn command of a couple of compa- nies of his regiment, Which will probably be brought from Colorado. This, however, is only conjecture. ee ee ‘The Damaged Gun, WHAT COMMODORE SICARD SAYS ABOUT IT. Notwithstanding the oficial denials about the destruction of a ten-inch gun at the Washington: navy-yard, the report ts reiterated from the yard ‘that one of the finishing tools broke off in the tube, and that the gun will prove a total loss, amount- ing to at least $40,000. Commodore Sicard, Chief of the Bureau of Erdnance, when asked about the matter to-day, said that there was a slight acct- dent to the gun, which resulted im very little dam- age. While smoothing off the intertor surface of the tube the tool used for the purpose, called a reamer, broke in the gun. Before the machinery could be stopped the broken tool had lett its track around the surface about a twentieth of an inch deep. Commodore Sicard added that the slight aluige wilt be repaired by cutting the tube one- twenUleth of an inch deeper than was at first in- tended. ‘The gun will be in no way impaired, he said, and the cost of the accident will be only the labor necessary to perform the additional cutting. dite rhcredhetairen Interior Department Changes. ‘The following official changes have occurred in the Department of the Interior: General Land Office.—Restgnation: Wm.

In making the assignments to mations Green was detailed to duty at Pensacola, station where he would not be likely to be re- ceived with open arms. It was stated at the time that the detail was made without to his being @ colored man, and that the officer who ar- Tanged the details was not aware of the fact. No change was made in the order, therefore, and when Green arrived at his post of duty the Signal service sergeant in charge of the station refused to accept his services as an assistant and the com- punity rewarded him with anything but favor. ant was court-mé for orga eh ee In consequenc e 0 Saft! die Sn ft Sa He did not give satisfuction to the Signal Service for to Pensacola, and it was thought that perhaps ‘he would do better at a Northern station, where the color line 1s not so closely drawn, and he was detailed for duty at Rochester, N.

Geo, A. Sawyer, of No. 1440 Massachusetts ave- Rue northwest, writes the Commissioners that ‘some of the trees on 15th street and probably else- where are infested with the tent worms, Hestates that they are now about 3¢ to 3g inch in length, and that an effort was made during the winter to remove the cocoons, but some few evidently es- caped, and the webs are now plainly visible. Mr. Sawyer expresses the opinion that the box elders planted on 15th, L, and $ streets are entirely un- suitable and unsatistactory as shade trees, for the reason that the wood is soft and pithy, and the tree consequently suffers more from wind storms and disease than any other kind which he has ob- served. It is peculiarly subject, he writes, to the attacks of insects, which do not destroy it, but make it look sickly and unwholesome. The odor from a freshly-cut branch ts rank and dl: able. Its only seeming good quailty, Mr. Sawyer thinks, is very rapid growth, but in ‘his opinion 1t is its greatest evil, tor it 1s like any other noxious thing, more difficult of eradication with each season of development. Another coepiaine comes from the northwest section of the city about the box elder shade trees, but this time it is the caterpillars which are the immediate cause of It. Mr. Geo. Sitgreaves, who lives on N_ street, between 13th and 14th streets, has written to the Commissioners some strong language about the pest. He says that 1t has been bis intention for some months past to ask that these trees may be cut down altogether in the autumn, and he has only waited to see the effect of removing the cocoons early in the soar just past. In spite of this, the trees are again ful of webs, and he says that he has no hesitation in pronouncing the trees an unmiti- gated nuisance, ‘They drop their leaves from the ime they first put them forth, and keep the street and pavement continually covered.” Mr.Sitgreaves Ubinks that they are poorshade-trees, and requests that they be cut down and replaced by other trees, or else that permission be granted residents of N street to plant others, ‘Transfers of Heal Estate.
