Excitement Quoted.
Washington, Nov. 21.-The peaceful
assurances in official quarters concern
ing the recent quartering of troops in
Washington have considerably allayed
the excitement which existed yester-

Another Democratic Boomerang.
In regard to the power of the House
Of Representatives to throw out the
vote of Colorado because its constitu-
ton as a state has not been approved
by Congress, Ex-Attorney General
Williams, who has been studying into
the matter, states that no action by
Congress is necessary, as the state of
Colorado has already been recognized
by the Federal Government by procla-
nation of the President.
Armu REORGANIZATION.
The army reorganization board con-
tinues its session at the War Depart
ment. The discussions of the board
refer particularly to providing speedy
and effective enlargement of the army
in time of necessity. Among the pro-
positions is that of making rs men the
quota of each company, and to be kept
at this standard in time of peace, but
in time of war the maximum is to be
$50 men. No definite plan of reorgan.
ization will be suggested hereafter until
Banning, chairman of the House mill
tary committee, returns to Washing
ton.
