maximum number, when they will return to the
battlefield. New recruits, IN squads and eompa-
niea, from all parts Of the Northwest, are daily
passing through the city to join regiments In the
i1eld. These men are generally transported by
contract, and, from scarcity Of passenger cars,
are too o,ten crowded fnto freight cars. as VIC are
