Incidents in Camp. pee Se earn Bnayon Orrice Evenrna Star, Camp Oxpwar, Fort Wasainorton, Mp., July 29, 1889, “Tam the light of the world,” and the dull gray clouds that had been hanging like a pall over Camp Ordway burst as by magic and let down a flood of sunshine on the head of Rev. Dr. Perry, as he announced his text for his sermon. He was standing on a temporary plat- form at the foot of the brigade flagstaff, and he was surrounded by two hundred blue coats, formed in @ hollow square. Col. Clay stood uncovered at one corner of the square, and the officers ofthe second regiment were in front of their battalions, while the band was placed at the southwest corner. About twenty-five men selected from the regiment were grouped on the mound of the flagstaff, and waited for the sign from Prof, Schroeder’s baton to sing hymns. The services were sym- ple and impressive, being conducted in accord- ance with the ritual of the Episcopal church. ‘They were preceded by a voluntary by the band and the singing of ‘Nearer, My God, to Thee” by the choir, SEE Z s Then Dr. Perry delivered his sermon in the blaze of light that came from the heavens suddenly, like an omen, The sermon was not long, but it was impressive and eloquent. FRIENDS, FOOD AND REST. Sunday was an eventful day in camp, for it broughtcompany to the lonesome, food to the hungry, rest to the weary. touched at the wharf, loaded with people, and the road from the river was thickly sprinkled with white dresses and bright colors, the dole- ful side of camp life was brightened. Every boat was welcomed with cheers from the crowds of bluecoats on the wharf, who formed a narrow lane from the gang plank far in to shore, seven or eight deep on each side. The appearance of goodly-sized boxes, carried with great care by provident and thoughtful relatives, was hailed with shouts of joy. At least 2.500 people braved tie chances of rain and took long risks by journeying to the camp from the city. They found “a tolerably passable pathway from the wharf to the ean- teen. a Mightly better one through the camp, but treacherous soil on every hand eeceee, REINPORSING THE COMMISSARY. Everything was dank, heavy and disagreea- ble, except the hearts of those who had re- ceived manna in the shape of well-filled boxes packed by appreciative mothers, sisters and sometimes best girls. Many a banquet was spread in the tents, and from the camp rose sounds of mirth and the cracking of chicken bones, The greatest good nature shone out on all sides and the men, with replenished stomachs, ‘were ina different mood from that in which they awoke to see the threatening heavens, The wharf became the grand loafing place for the camp, and it was only deserted when the last boat left for town. Some went to River View, but not many, for this pilgrimage cost money, and bv yesterday morning nearly every purse was empty and credit was bad. The arrival of nine brawny athletes in ashell about 2:30 o'clock created quite an excitement for atime, They were a crew from the Col- umbia club, as follows: Gibson, coxswaii O'Leary, stroke; Miller, seven; Moulton, six; Beall, five; Chap. Simms, four; Perry, three; Brock, two, and Cochran, one. They started from the Columbia boat house at 12 o'clock, and met some terribly rough water at first. They made good time, however, to Alexandria, and there they stopped for a while to get breath and take some refreshments they had carried with them, They arrived at the Fort Washington wharf in two hours and a-half from the time of start- ing. They were wet and dye-stained, but happy. and they mingled with the crowd that greeted the Law's passengers, joining the chorus of welcome with lusty voices and attracting = Sa deal of attention in their blue and red lazers apa caps. They left at about 6 o'clock for hom@, and made the return trip in an hour and a-half. Itis the belief of many that this trip, if not the longest ever made in an be eng oared shell, is way up in the top notches of re- cords, The men were given regular Sunday meals— breakfast at9 o'clock and dinner at 4. There As boat after boat | stained pie knife, he declared that by his hali- berd he would not give another piece to a man who had already eaten eight slices, and his hard heart melted not. Some of the appeti were wonder- the tales of gastronomic con- McIntyre says that ® man say eaten nine bowls of soup, and one indi- vidual who had made an unsuccessful appeal to the piemaster for another piece of pie turned away, and with an elevation of his nose remarked: ‘Well, I don’t care what you do with your pie, anyhow! I had seven for breakfast. even if I can’t have more pie.” The allowance of eggs was two fora man. THE FINAL DRESS PARADE. Gen. Ordway decided when he had surveyed the drill ground and when he saw the throngs of people on the reservation that the time was up for a final dress of the brigade, and 80 orders were sent out early in the day for the men to assemble at 6:30. The result was @ brigade dress parade the like of which has never been witnessed in the vicinity since the war, The visitors flowed up the road and into the field ina steady stream for fully half an hour, and when the brigade line, by a few fine maneuvers, formed on the plain, the bluecoats were confronted by fully 2,000 people on the other side of the clearing. It was a fortunate fact that with all the rain and mud the brigade has missed but one parade, that of Friday, and the result of the practice was shown yesterday when the guard marched like veterans and when the hundreds of spec- tators sent forth cheer after cheer to the blue wall of men movi! like clockwork, When parade was dismissed Gen. Ordway took occa- sion to say a few words of thanks and compli- ments to the officers of the line, and in sending them back to their commands he expressed a hope that they felt as well satisfied with their week's work as he with what both officers and men had done. The breaking of the brigade line was a bean- tiful thing to witness, The order was for com- panies to break from the right and march to the rear, and it was executed with a precision and accuracy that brought out a thunder of ap- planse, Col. Bates, an officer of the U.S. army, who spent the day with Gen, Ordway, witnessed the parade and said afterward that in his opinion the general and his men had done wonder- fully. Ao A FAVORITE PERCH. After parade the men had all their time to themselves, and they occupied it to good ad- vantage in enjoying the company of their friends from town. THE COOK IN EFFIGY The artillery and cavalry boys burned some- thing yesterday evening that looked remarka- bly like some kind ofa man. The figure was made simply by stuffing an old vest and a pair of trowsers with straw, and keeping the frag- ments together by the use of scraps of string and pins, In the lower por- tion of the artillery’s camp a bonfire was blazing, and here, as close to the blaze as was possible, were a number of soldiers who were engaged in a good-humored endeavor to get even with somebody. With elaborate cere- mony the crowd christened the figure “Le Mour.” and then proceeded to try the offender by court-martial. The presiding officer was Sergt. Ferguson; the at- torney for the defense was Sergt. Jack Shepherd, and the interests of the com- bination of old clothes and straw were looked after by Driver Shannon. Testimony was taken as to the cuisine arrangements, and the jury, headed by Driver Bob Joyce, speedily found the prisoner guilty of everything charged in the specifications and a good deal more. In a few minutes the efligy was fastened to one end of a fence rail, while the other end of the rail was sharpened as though for use in the ground. The pris- oner was first shot by a trooper and then straw and other inflammable stuff was placed all aronnd it until it could barely be seen. The various bed-bags belonging to the battery were emptied before the court sat in the immediate vicinity of the place of trial and condemnation, so that every man slept on hard boards last night simply because he would rather do that than forego the pleasure of pub- Wier the flames na ccna the last of the somewhat fragile and not too beautiful counterfeit, the howling mob called upon a couple of Stan reporters for speeches. ‘They were accommodated and had to again and again acknowledge the plaudits which the boys showered upon Tur Stak. Other orations followed and calls were made upon Capt. ‘ates and Lieut. Rollens of the battery and Capt. Harry Barbour, all of whom made suita- ble responses, It was a great night, A PIE FORAGER, Dr. Henderson, the surgeon of the second regiment, was the victim of some camp dis- cipline yesterday, and though he—or rather his friends—suffered in the encounter some- what, he came off smiling, and now he is tell- ing folks that he believes the camp has done a world of good tothe men. There were some ladies visiting his tent during the morning, and when they heard the doctor say that there was going to be pie for dinner they jokingl; asked him to bring them one, So he Recaged. atter he had finished his meal, and after la good deal of palavering ' with the French steward he succeeded in walking off with a whole pie. He marched triumph- antly to the gate, mentally exulting over his victory over the foreigner, but. his career of a triumph was brought to a sudden close by the vigilant sentinel at the gate of the fort, who made him turn about face and go back with the ia Argument was useless. The sentinel had his orders and ho meant to obey them, so the doctor returned the pie to France and went me Sapa to his reproachful, hungry ‘ien The exterior guard mount of the Emmet guards, between 8 a.m. Saturday and 8 a.m. Sunday,was extremely fine. Every man turned out in shape, with buttons in order, clothes straight and altogether in first-class order. ‘The conduct of the men on picket wer Aare thoroughly up to the standard and Capt.O'Brien was Pa happy ignored compliments on the appearance and form of command, Capt.

Parmenter busied himself in seeing a — a done for the ee tar; ests. Other officers speedily joine: and if was not long ere a stream of immi migra~ tion had set in toward the camp. Many of the disappointed ones had relatives in camp an in numerous instances they were around to listen to the tale of woe told in such a pitiable manner by their boat~ forsaken kinsfolk. The news got into the first regiment naturally before it reached : e eee any other command, and in five minutes eer were astir among the ~ «ff less than first battalion. Major Dalton, Capt. Ross Capt. Kelly, Surgeon Hamilton E. Leach, and a number of others moved toward the wharf as rapidly as possible. They found fully one iran- dred ‘and seventy-five people—the great majority. of them women and children—in rather an awkward plight. They had all been passengers on the down trip of the steamer George Law, but the Law had not taken them home. ‘The Law's captain had filled his boat to its utmost capacity and had promised to return at about midnight to take home the re- mainder, The crowd waited and waited, but the steamer that they longed for never came, The Mary Washington came along, however, and a number of very vigorous efforts were made by the belated folks to get on board. Capt. Randall positively refused to take on an- other passenger, although he was offered a dollar a ticket by a number of the more anxious. Then there was a scene, Men cursed everything but themselves, women fainted, children cried. One lady was 80 badly affected by hysteria that the sick call was sounded and she was borne up to the hos- pital on astretcher, Just then the officers of the first battalion appeared and did much to quiet the disorder by proffering the hospitalities of the Light Infantry camp. The offer was immediately accepte: and soon the muddy hill-road was darkened by the returning crowd. In camp officers and men vied with each other in vacsting their nice soft beds and in filling up the couches with strangers. Lots of the men declared their will- ingness to sleep out with no bed, but the dew- laden grass and no covering but the somewhat distant star-bespangled arch of bine. This was not necessary, however, for the men doubled | Fopbery and other similar offenses, ‘The off- up with each other in so many cases that there was ample room for the guests. The second regiment was too far away to share to any con- siderable extent, but it cared for quite a little bunch of the ‘‘eft” ones, Among those who were crowded off the boats were two young girls, who , between their sobs, confessed very frankly that they had come down to camp without permission, fully expecting to be able to return so early in the evening that their absence would not be missed, They were very much impressed by their punishment. The company on guard duty was D of the third battalion (Union veteran corps). Captain Suess was the officer of the day and both he and his men exerted themselves to their utmost to make the visitors feelas though they were at home. i This morning the crowd wae given hot coffee and substantial refreshments and when the couple of hundred went away they were profuse in their expressions of gratitude toward the gentlemanly soldier boys, THE W. L. 1. CAMP, The members of the Washington Light In- fantry who are in carap have held a number of informal consultations over the camp which they usually go into in the fall. A special meeting will be held as the armory on Wednes- day night, when the committee having the matter under consid- eration will report to the corps. No confid- ence is betrayed when the statement is made that the report will most emphatically favor a trip to Atlantic City during the latter part of August and a stay of about ten days. e report will un- doubtedly be adopted, and about 130 men have already intimated their intention of going to dwell for a period “; the sad son waves.”* 5 2: THE NATIONAL GUARD BAND. Prominent among the many things which have made life in Camp Ordway more pleasant than the meteorological conditions tried to make it was the band. Composed of thor- ough musicians and amiable gentlemen, it could not be otherwise than popular.

A Position Offered Him—Difference of Opinion Among the Commisioners The Commissioners have about concluded their investigation of ex-Lieut. Arnold's con- duct under Major Walker,for which he was dis- missed from the police force by the late board of Commissioners. It is no secret that two of the Commissioners believe he has been ill- treated, ang are anxious to do something for him. Some time ago, it will be re bered, the Commissioners learned that certain em- ployes of the District government were the owners of carts which were employed in work immediately under their contract and issued an order forbidding it, Prominent among these cart owners was M. J. Faley, inspector of clean- ing streets and alleys. The Commissioners in- vestigated the matter and concluded to make achange in the office. It is known that Mr. Arnold has been offered this . but whether he will accept it is an open question yet, as it is known the position is distasteful to him. The change, at any rate, will not take place until Commissioner Douglass returns, as a majority of the board is necessary to approve the change, and it is well known that MAJOR RAYMOND I8 AGAINST THE APPOINTMENT of Arnold to any position under the District | government. Major Raymond still has the Papers in the case, but it is understood he has been through them carefully and will make a protest should the Gommissioners appoint Ar- nold. In speaking toa Stan reporter of the case, Major Raymond said; “As yet no action has been taken by the board appointing Mr. Arnold to any position. He was dishonorably dismissed from the police service before I became Commissioner.” “Have youconcluded yoar investigation of the rs in the case?” asked the reporter. “Yes, I have,” replied the major, “I have gone over the papers and read the proceedings of the trial carefully. He was undoubtediy Properly dismissed. According to the evi- lence and according also to his own verbal state- ment before the present board, he deliberately signed an official communication addressed to the Commissioners which contained false state- ments, He repeated these false statements in the most solemn and emphatic manner in the presence of two Commissioners, This is enough to show that he is not the proper per- son to place in any position under the District government.” ——>___ GEORGETOWN. Work ox THe Caxan Rerains Drvayep.— The repairing of the Chesapeake and Qhio canal has from time to time been delayed by rain, and for the past four days, including to- day, no work has been done. The mud in the bed of the canal is so deep that work to-day was out of the question. Dr. Becker, one of the contractors, stated this morning that no one could tell when the Georgetown level of the canal would be ready to receive the water, as it depended on the weather. Should it re- main favorable the repairs will be finished within a short space of time. Mr. Robert B. Tenney, in a conversation with a Star reporter this morning, said he was of the opinion that there were about eight or ten days more work yet to be done on the canal and that it can be done in that time if the weather is favorable. President Gambrill and Mr. Cisscll made another payment on Saturday for the millers to the contractors, Should there be no rain to- day work will be resumed to-morrow and in a day or so thecanal will be repaired as far as the Chain bridge. A good dealwill then remain to be done, for there is a great break abovs of several hundred yard: Deatn or 4 Weii-Kyowx Youne -Bustxess Mayx.—Harry L.

The main reason for the edict, aside from other questions arising in the Scottish Rite controversy, is stated to be that the Gorgas Cerneau organization has established relations of amity and Masonic correspondence with the Grand orient of France, the govern- ing body of Masons in that country, which is under the ban of at least every English-speak- ing Grand lodge in the world because the Grand orient has stricken the name of God from its rituals, The grand lodges of this country, it is said, have an additional grievance — the Grand orient of France because the tter persists in recognizing the negro grand lodges 7 the United States, «3 3 Grand Master Dingman's edict directs that all visitors to lodges in the District of Colum- bia shall be required to state before admission that they are not members of the Gorgas Cer- neau organization, The meeting of this organ- ization in any Masonic hall is also prohibited, THE BARRED-OUT ORGANIZATION, The Gorgas Cerneau organization has as ite head Dr. Ferdinand J. 8. Gorgas of Baltimore. Another Cerneau organization is presided over by John J. Gorman of New York. These bodies were organized about ten years ago by men who claimed to repudiate the consolidation of 1863, by which the Cerneau organizations were merged into the Northern supreme council of the Scottish Rite. The edict of Mr. Dingman makes no reference tothe Gorman Cerneau organization, because no question im regard to the relations with that body bas been raised in this jurisdiction. The only Scottish Rite re- cognized is the Supreme council for the south- ern jurisdiction, of which Mr. Albert Pike of this city is grand commander, an@ the Supreme council of the northern jurisdiction, of which Henry L. Palmer of Milwaukee is supreme commander, cmt * To Prevent the Building of a Wall, In the Equity Court Judge Montgomery to- day heard the case of samuel Norment against Gassenbeimer et al.—an application for an am- junction to restrain the erection of « wall in the rear of 605 Pennsylvania avenue northwest, Mr. Job Barnard appeared for the complainant and Mr. L.

N.Y. dispatch to Baltim American, July 28. Today's meeting o: Typographical union, 6, is said to have been the iargest ever held in New York city. A thorough discussion of the troubles of the past week was had, and by & vote of about 800 to 400 it was decided to re- sist to the utmost any reduction in the price of composition, Many members were unable to get into tne hall where the meeting was held, and waited outside to hear the result, Some few were not averse to the making of conces- sions to their employers, and others desired | certain modifications, but the great mass op- posed @ change in the present scale. They re- gard Big Six as the backbone of trades-unionism in the United States, and it is assumed that if the scale were reduced here, the printers’ stronghold, reductions would follow in the trade all over the country, Fears are also en- tertained that other trades might be affected. Two hours of discussion preceded the vote. Some difficulty was had in deciding w . further course of action, but it was concluded to leave the matter in the hands of acommittee with power, the committee to be selected by the chapels of the offices in which the dispute lies. One of the delegates to the recent convention in Denver said that unions all over the country | had urged No. 6 to resist the proposed reduc- tion, and that promise of support had come from all trades. Chapel meetings were held by the various offices. Work is proceeding as usual to-night, but trouble may arise at any moment, The Mai! and Express has solved the diffi- culty with the printers by abolishing piece work in the office. All the men there now work eight hours a day, and are paid a salary of $21a week. The same system isin opera- tion on the evening Sun and World. THE NEW SCALE. The New York Tribune to-day says: When the meeting adjourned at 1 a.m. the commit- tee had decided upon three scales, which it will submit to the proprietors to-day. It was willing to make some concessions, and all the committeemen were in favor of settling the dispute withouta strike. A somewhat modified scale as regards piece-work will be Proposed, and as an alternative, an entirely new scale time charges. The third proposition that will be made, if neither of the others is accepted, is that the proprietors may keep the cute an y 55 cents a thousand ems for composition. Frnone of these is acce; in the three offices will be called out, andas Presi- dent Bolsey said, ‘Then they will have to fight.” The committeemen said that the dis- cussion was on ina quiet manner, and that the feeling was altogether conciliatory. pwns —Shnconetce~<~ setescomrannsony JAMES GARFIELD FOR CONGRESS, jodges—as well as by many Odd Fellows and by the Alex- andria Musical association, the deceased hav- .
