+ EW YORK TROOPS LIKELY TO STAY IN . a Will Require at Least Two * Months to Come Hack After Order Is Given “HARDENING UP” BEGINS Plan for Sewerage of Camp Indicates Long Stay on Mexican Border, 4 By Martin Green. r “Sierlng wera ™ MALAAN, Tes, July 16.—Indica- tone that the New York troops are here for @ long otay multiply, To- ay planes are under way for putting ® Gowerage system tn the camp to Giapose of shower baths and laundries, All that te peeded is the approval of the divi- sion headquarters etaff of a compre Densive idea worked out by Major James M. Hutchinson, Becond Bat- talion, Boventy-frst IMfantry, an en- Bineor who bas worked on important New York pubiic improvements. It te natural that drainage should be provided for camps accommodat- tng 20,000 mon, but this venture ts of interest as it has direct bearing on the possible duration of the New York encampment in Tex Major Hutchinson's project calle for the Construction of a trunk line sewer More than two miles long, with forty- five laterais, connecting company streets with the infantry camps at M’Allen and taking cure of artillery, signal corps, cavalry and hospital units, This sewerage idea, big enough for a small city, would not be considered by the War Depart- Ment unless there was an intention om the part of those in authority to d make this camp an approach to a barracks, With the approval of division quar- ters, Major iuichinson has started the construction of three camp kitch- ens with concrete floors for the Sev- enty-first. The other regiments hero will be similarly equipped. If the sewerage plan for McAllen is ap- proved, similar systems will be in- stalled at Mission and Pharr, Th are signs kading to the conclusion that this camp is to hold the New York troops for months, NEW YORKERS LIKELY TO GREET WINTER ON BORDER, Even though the New York troops should be ordered home as soon as the entire force is assembled in Texas, which will not be until about Aug. 1, tho last regiment to. return cannot reach Broadway before Oct. 1. ‘This ia an official estimate from divi- sion headquarte: It will take at least two months, with all factors favorable, to move the New York soldiers from Texas to New York. As it is scarcely conceivable that an order recalling the militia will be) issued before there Is some definite promise of settlement of the Mexican situation, the chances are that the New York boys will vote in camp and be lucky if they get home for their Thanksgiving turkey. There are still due in the camp the Bixty-ninth, Second and Third In- fantry, two batteries of the Twenty- second Engincers, the Second Field “Artillery, three ambulance corps and the Second and Third Field Hospitals, It ts not believed at headquarters that those units can reach the Rio Grande Valley and get under canvas before the close of this month, Bhould tho main situation so shape {teelf as to warrant the Administra- tion in dissolving the volunteer force | on the border as soon as the New York organization has reached its full camp strength, the work of mui tering out will be much slower and more exacting than was the work of mustering in and sending the soldiers to the front. Every man will have to undergo a compiete medical exam- {nation in order to prepare for pon- sion demands in the future; aj! sup- plies and equipment will have to be checked up to the last ounce and the last cartridge; and it that the railroads handling the great fall crop movements will be able to carry the troops to the Narth as ex- peditiously as they were carried to the South. TO BE WELL DRILLEp BEFORE COMING BACK. The relatives and friends of the boys in Texas may not figure on see- ing them before the steam heat ts turned on, and if they are back by that time the fact will surprise mill- tary authorities who have paid some attention to the possibilities, It is not 'HEN you go on your vaca- tion this Summer have your favorite paper mailed te you every day.

LOUIS, July 15.—Seventy-five members of New York's famous “Fighting Sixty-ninth” infantry re; iment blocked traffic on the Eads Bridge for fifty-five minutes Jast night after seven of the New ‘ork militiamen had been put off a street car following an argument over 10 cents. The police summoned one of the militia officers, who lined the men up and marched them back to East St. Louls. The 600 recruits of the Seventy- first Infantry are to be left by the Sixty-ninth at Kansas City, it is said, There they will be placed in a eep- arato train tor Brownsville, The intense heat and the the alkali on the border has the commissary department to Issue yellow gcggles to the men, The Six- ty-ninth was the first to reach St. Louls to be fully equipped with them. se Bridge tn t Whitman Aide to Mhapect New York Militia, ALBANY, July 15.—Gov.

What impressed me there was the extraordinary frenzy for amusement. Americans play with as much energy as they work, And how you work! “Really! " 1 exclaimed incredulous- ly, “Americans like to think of our extraordinary energy, but when you have observed the pleasant saunter of the downtown man, when you see @ crowd of 500 people gather to watch & man climb # flagpole, you will be apt to discount this tradition of American speed." “But it exists," M, Duvent per- sisted. “It is overwhelming, The) American business man seems to live in a whirlwind, He goes all day like a ball shot from a cannon.

With her free stride, her swinging arms, he straight, frank look she gives Jou between the eyes, you recognize at once the woman who Is free, yet the woman who has not abused her freedom, For the American woman is emancipated and at the same time worthy of respect.” What M.
