MILwAUKEE, July e.-At stormy ses-
sion of the executive Grand Army council,
last night. long set of resolutions WIS
adopted, practically stopping all further
preparations for the national encampmen',
in August, until assurances are given that
il will be held in this city. This action was
due to the refusal of the mayor and com
mon council TO appropriate $4,000
for tents and barracks unless il was
certain the Grand Army men were
coming. Eight state department com
manders met in Chicago and decided 10
Issue circulars advising their posts not 70
come unless one cent rate was granted
by the railroads. This action upset all
local plans and led TO the above result. If
the state department commanders carry
their threats into effect it Is probable the
invitation of the city will be rescinded.
