The Battle of Brentwood Road Fought by the National Guard Today. A SPIRITED ENGAGEMENT. A Lively Encounter of Troops on the Edge of the City—Blank Cartridges Used and Much Valor Shown—The First Field Day of the District's Citizen Soldiery. Long after other events in the military his- tory of this city shall have been forgotten the battle of Brentwood road, fought on October 21, 1892, will be something for tho local sol- diery to remember and discuss. Other fields have been more bloody and a fow rost their claims to fame on deeds of dar- ing such as were not surpassed even to day, but considered as a cok, MOORE. whole the strife which raged just east of Eckington this morning was warm enough to please any person who is content with the ap- pearance of mortal combat and who is careless as to the facts in the case. For more than two hours the rattle of infantry fire was almost continuous, punctaated and accentuated by the heavier sounds of artillery ammunition or the mechanical regularity of explosions common to Gatling guns in action. There were movements of all kinds—sometimes cautious, sometimes bold; men, singly and in bodies, crawled A RECONNOISANCE. through the woodsandsurprised their adversar- ies. and were occasionally themselves surprised. Other commands moved in the open field reck- leas of the big guns that thundered in their faces. Of course there were no bullets in the cartridges—big or little—so everybody felt per- fectly at liberty to. be valorous; most of them would have been no less active bad the engage- ment been a real one. THE FIRST FIELD Day. It was tho first ficld day the District National Guard ever enjoyed and it was a success. The maneuvers which engaged the attention of every member of the brigade who was present and delighted those who were fortunate enough to be spectators would have been worked out some time ago had there been a brigade encampment. Congress parsimoniously de- cided there should — not such a camp, so Gen. Ordway hid to make the best arrangements possible for instructiny the men in essential features of the new di regulations. Armory drills were, to a certain extent, useful, but they failed, for luck of space, to give even companies a chance to go through their share of thebook. Field days were, there- fore, decided to be necessary, and, in accord- ance with that conclusion, three were ordered. Last Monday the first regiment. the engineer corps and: the cycle company drilled nt Ivy Git, On, Tuenday. the ‘second regiment and the first separate battalion did the same thing. portion represent Map} hesgtears atin ading force, com- manded by Col. Clay, the pS subdivis- ion, commanded by Gen.’ Ordway, defending the city. And yet it was not a sham battle, for the program of movements had been carefully no question about Col. Clay's defeat. It was. clear case of foreordination, was so nominated in the bond. The invaders might have fought with unparalleled bravery, but there could be only one end to the noisy controversy—the in- vaders had to be defeated. In the program it UP A TREE. was provided that blunders should be made on both sides. These were necessary to bring out the usefulness of certain formations and move- ments not heretofore thoroughly understood. TRE FIELD OF BATTLE. A better field than the one selected for the mimic struggle could hardly be found. To be sure there was but little ground on which the ublic could stand to see what was going on, ut that was something that could, net be helped. A certain configuration of surface was necessary in order that the maneuvers might be educational, and a combination of the mili- tary and civic features was not now possible. There was a suspicion of humidity in the air when daylight put in an appearance this morn- ing. Visions of pouring rain and slippery mud flitted before the eyes of 1,000 national, guards: men, but the disturbing possibilities melted in brightsunshine, much to the relief of everybod: interested in the maneuvers. AMMUNITION WAGON. LEAVING THE CITY, As enrly as 7o'clock there was lifein and around the armories, and by a little after 8 the brigade was about ready for the field. The invaders were the first to leave the city; they went out by Baltimore and Ohio train to Ivy City and marched from that station to the posi- tion which they afterward defended so gal- lantly. By 9 o'clock the city’s defenders were at the New York avenue station of the Baltimore and Ohio, the infantry conveyed thither in the cars of the Eckington and Sol- diers’ Home Company. THE CITY'S DEFENDERS. The defensive force consisted of the first regiment of infantry, commanded by Col. W. G. Moore, with Capt. Burton R. Ross, Maj. R. CYCLISTS TO THE FRONT. A. O'Brien and Maj. T. B, Harrison, command- ing the first, second and third battali spectively: troop A, commanded by Capt. H. 8. rbour; one section of the light battery, under First Lieut. Robbins; the sharpshooters’ platoon of the engineer corps, Lieut. F. L. Graham, and the second separate (cycle) company. THE INVADING FORCE The invaders, under Col. Clay, consisted of the second regiment of infantry, with Maj. Campbell and Maj. Bartlett at the beads of the fourth and sixth battalions respectively; the first separate (colored) battalion, commanded by Maj. Revels: three sections ‘of the light battery under Capt. Forsberg and a detach- | ment of the engineer corps. This latter or- | ganization, commanded by Lieut. Gilbert BEBIND AN EMBANKMENT. ‘Thompson, was divided up, the three platoons being in of Lieut.

Very clever sharpshooter work is being done by Lieut. Gra- bam's expert platoon; the men are scattered down the road and have approached as closely as possible to the enemy’s left.

The Columbia Foot Ball Team Lose by Bad ‘Team Play. Today was beautifal one for the foot ball match between the elevens of Lafayette College of Easton, Pa. and the Columbia Athletic Club, though the’ weather was, if anything, » little too warm. Considering the fact that the teams were so evenly matched the game deserved « much better attendance, not more than 300 per- ons being present. The game was originally scheduled for 11 o'clock, but Lafayette was unable to reach the city at that time, and it was after midday when the match began. Mr. Bob Church was chosen referee and Mr. Carmody, captain of the Georgetowns, acted as umpire. Capt. Voight won the toss and chose the ball. The teams lined up as follows Lafayette. THE OPENING PLAY. Lafayette opened with a V, but gained little ground. Lafayette prepared for a kick, but the Dall was passed to Fenstermacher, who dashed through a hole and went twenty yards before Emery discovered him. Four downs gave the ball to C. AC. The home boys made @ short gain and lost on « fumble. : mede a long ran by good interference to the _ fifteen-yard line. They could go no further, and again the Columbias gained Busroughs advanced ten yards, Shields made \a good kick.and ona fumbie Darby dropped on the ball near center. Without « gain | Lafayette took the ball and Craig finding « tackle gained fifteen Short rushes ad- vanced the ball slowly toward Columbia's goal. The latter here took a decided brace and stopped further advance. By Lafayette get- ting through the line C. A. C. was forced back, blocked, Edwards dropping on the ball, which rolled behind the line, thus securing the first touch down, from which Rockwell kicked goal. Score: Lafayette, 6; C. A. C., 0. LACK OF TRAM Wonk. From the center C. A.C. made somo gains ‘until an entire lack of interference in the rans allowed Lafayette to get through and force the runners back. Columbia up to this time showed @ wofal lack of team work, while their opponents were playing a "hard, quick and heady game. Near the center Lafayette obtained the leather. By short har Lafayette egain took the bail in close pro to the C. A.C. goal. Darby, Wells, Rani Church were playing a very pretty game. The game became very hard and sharp, neither si an opening, advancing to the five-yard line. The went back to Rockwell, who, aided by “beef,” was pushed over for the second touch down. Rockwell missed an easy goal. Score Lafayette, 10; C. A. C., 0. C. A. C. kicked after a V, thus giving Lafayette the spheroid. Time was called herefor Burroughs. whose wind was knocked out in a scrimmage. In « moment he gamely continued. For some time the play continued in Lafayette's territory without mucl | irat half with the ball on Lafayette's forty-yard line. During the intermission the spectators dis- cussed the relative meritsof the team’. Colum- | bia was not playing the game she put up against Princeton. With the exception of Wells, Ranier and Darby the line did not amount to anything. Lafayette made repeated gains, | especially through Weaver's end. The men at almost. vei, scrimmage. . A.
