Deficit ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 81, 10
If to this be added miscellaneous expenses
which last year amounted to $3.50 70, the
deficit would amount to about 81 coo.
The Board then took into consideration
the question Of encampments, and while al
admitted their usefulIess and necessity, il
was resolved they could not be held this year,
as there would be no money in the treasury
for this purpose. If two or three regiments
| held an encampment this year the dsfici,
! thus created would have to be borne by all
/ the companies Of the n. G.. G. before the end
| of the fiscal year. and would certainly work
! an Injustice to the companies that had not
/ gone into encampment ami were dsbRrred
! from doing so under the law IL was deter
mined by the Board to ask an appropriation
/ from the next Legislature for this special
! purpose Of encampme nts and to have mat
| ters so arranged that the entire division Of
the n. G. Q. could derive benefit from the
same. The question then arose whether the
Colonel commanding regiment had the
right to 90 into encampment with the regi-
meut, and claim the amount allowed by law,
without first bsviug obtained the consent of
bis superior officers. II was unanimously
decided he had not, and in this opinion the
Attorney. General fully coucurred.
On motion il was resolved that an order
be Issued from general headquarters refusing
permission TO regiments TO go into encsmp-
ment, under itae provisions of Section 2022
Of the Political Code, Gu the ground of want
Of funds
After discussing at considerable length the
question az tJ the best means of overcoming
the deficiency in the appropriation, without
the necessity Of dis5sndiug any of the COM
psnies or weakening the efficiency Of the n
O.. c., it was resolved thGt the two light
battery cOmpaBies-one in Sacramento and
the other in San Francisc5-belonging re-
spectively to the First aud Second Artillery
Regiments, be changed into artillery COM
pauies Of said regiments, with the same allow.
ances as are now given to the other COM
panies OF these regiments.
1t was deemed that there measures of the
Board would enable the administration to
tide over the next two fiscal years without
any deficit.
CHANGE IN RAILROAD TmE.-The new
timetable goes into effect on the Union Pa,
cihc July 1st. There will be two through
passenger trains each way daily. The Pacific
express will leave Omaha at 1905 P. NJ. and
arrive at Ogden at 6 a. NJ, thus reducing the
time twelve hours. The Atlantic express
leaves Ogden at $3.50 P. N. and arrives at
Omaha at 1880 a. VI. The express trains con-
meet with the Central Pacific. and instead Of
connecting With the esstbound Chicago
trains, rs heretofore, 10 the afternoon, will
connect with the morning east bound trains.
The new arrangement reduces the time be-
tween Omaha and San Francisco one day.
The local Union Pacific mail and passenger
train viii leave Omaha st p. N. aud arrive
a. Ogden at 6:15 P N and will leave Ogden
az P II. and arrive OF Omaha at 800 P. N.
This is doubling the passenger service on
that road. Pullman cars will soon be run
from Omaha to San Francisco, doing away
with the change at Ogden.
