The cavalry camp was the first to be struck
and there was an animated scene early this
morning when the troopers who had done such
gallant service during the camp made a valiant
but often unavailing effort to collect their
various goods and chattels.
Corporal Percy and Private Page were on a
wild rampage with Bob Joyce of the light bat
terry to aid them in looking for their lost goods.
Bob Joyce has large-sZed eye to attend to
and is consequently good deal OF a failure as
a searcher.
Everything in the cavalry camp. however.
was very soon In order and by 9:l5 In. with
saddles packed the cavalry troop had filed off
for their long ride to Washington, where they
will receive the infantry on their arrival this
afternoon.
BUSY QUARTERMAsTERs
This was the quartermasters day. Those
valued and fire. quently abused officers were in
as much demand as though they had been
something 10 drink, and more than one of them
wished with much fervor that the icy hand
Of death had gripped his throat week
or two ago. They toiled and tugged at bundles
of baggage that were three or four sizes too
large for them. and when they bad worn them
selves out squad OF coiored cart
and wagon drivers came along and
did the lifting anyhow. Post
Quartermsster Parmenter was up several hours
before the lark and had things well in hand
when breakfast call sounded He was assisted
at headquarters by Quartermaster Parsons of
the sixth battalion, and at the wharf by Quar-
termaster Kelly of the first. Both assistants
were interchangeable.
The quartermaster's department has been
really under great obligation to Messrs. Little
field and Alvord. OF course the gentlemen
named have not been working solely for
their health, but no reasonable kind of
q contract could have called upon them
to pitch in and work as they have done.
Mr. Alvord has been in camp from the Goth
instant and has given the closest personal
supervision TO his magnificent mule teams and
the duties to which the drivers were assigned.
without snch aid ~ they gave many big job
v ouId have gone wrong.
Practical joking and good deal Of lung work
occupied the time of the brigade until noon.
The drum corps assisted in making a noise, and
altogether the boys had good deal of lark.

From Wall Street Today.

New YoRK, July 28.-The stock market
opened this morning with an unusual amount
Of animation and decided weakness, in SYM
pathy with the lower London figures. The ac-
tvity did not last throughout the hour. and
only in sugar refneries, st. Paul and Atchison
WAS there any real activity. First prices were
all lower, and the declines from Saturday.
final prices extended to "a per cent In sugar
and st. Paul Among the stocks of the regu-
lar list, however, there was no movement of
Importance, some yielding slightly from the
opening figures, but later recovering the loss.
Sugar was the only stock in which there was
An important fuctuation, and that, after ad-
vancing from 1873 to 1873, retired to IS, after
ward recovering to about the opening figure.
The trading in the rest of the market was abso-
lutely devoid Of feature.
Silver opened at 1898. Highest sales 1897
lowest sale, 109ss; closed at 1895.

THE LAST SUNSET,

THE srAR's representatives in camp have
been treated with tho utmost courtesy by
every one with whom they came in contact
For much material attention they are indebted
to Capt and Mrs. E. H. Neumeyer. Gen. Ord
way and the officers of the brigade STAFF have
rendered every assistance in their power; Post
Quartsrmaster Parmenter was not found want
ing at any time, and STAFF Sergt. CorvaiEier
was full Of pleasantly thoughtfut deeds.
II ~ CAPT. HKUxlYm now
No more popular thing has been done BY
Gen Ordway thsn the action he took shortly
before midnight Of Saturday. Az that time he
notified STAR reporter that he had decided 70
promote Comnissary Sergeant z. H. Neuuseysr,
and yesterday it was Capt Neumsyer. The
captain 10 to be an aid-de-camp ON the gem
ersfs sta6. Everybody, or pretty nearly every
body, was delighted With the promotion. Some
few Of the chronic ''kickers, Who, for personal
reasons, have been endesvering TO asaau the
camp conmissary, are not over-pieased TO
know that the man whom they had tried their
best 70 injure would rank them, but they can
do nothing but take their medicine That the
commissary has been administered VITA such
uuvaryfng ability and suceess 10 due to Capt
Neumeyer's iacesssnt effort Thai Gen. Ord
way appreciates the work done b evidenced BIZ
his ecticn. Capt Neumsyer VIII Be recon-
mended for commission by the President q
soon ~ the brigade returns 70 the city.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1890-07-28


The brigade will be at home this afternoon
but the work in camp will not be DONE Tents
will have to be struck az soon as the sun dries
them out sufficiently, and then they must be
stored away for another years use. ALI the
commissary stores-plates, dishes, cups,
knives, forks and spoons have to
be packed for future USE
This means more labor than most people imag-
inc. Capt L. H. Eeumeyer, Lieut. King and
Ordnance Sergeant Campbell will remain at the
fort for a couple Of days to supervise the clean
up. Sergeant Joyce will keep fatherly eye
on the youngsters and will not allow any OF
them to go astray.
EMBARKrNa FoB HOME.
Sandwiches were served at noon, and at 9
o'clock the brigade embarked on the steamer
Excelsior for Washington, expecting to reach
the city before O'Clock.
GEN. oRDwAY LOOKS BACKWARD.
So far as military instruction is concerned the
work at Camp Washington is over for this
| season. Yesterday evening was given over
| largely to retrospection. There was universal
| satisfaction everywhere, and among the men
themselves there was nothing OF grumbling
Gen. Ordway is exceptionally proud Of this
years work. In conversation with q star
reporter yesterday evening he said:
This las been an extraordinarily satisfac.
tory camp and am grateful to oil the officers
and men who have done SO much to make il
one. The results generally exceed those OF
/ last year, and they should do so, for We have
| done much more work than we did then
There is in every department very marke d
improvement.
THE discipline is far superior to anything
| have ever seen ia any militia camp; the meI
realize and appreciate the differences which.
white not apparent in social life, must neces-
| sarily exist In such a camp a. We have had this
year. In Washington aud in our civil ranl
| there is much in common; in camp there mus
be distinctions II there was no such distinc-
\ ton there would be NO discipline.
| An extraor binary amount OF industry ha,
been most gratifying feature. In addition t.
the regular company drills the captains havs
| gotten in extra drills anyhow. It required
| crest deal of crowding, but IL was done ant
done successfully.
| IT MAJ BE TEN DAYS NEXT YEAR.
my only regret" continued Gen. Ordway
sis that we are about to strike our tents Just o
this time, when we are ready for real hare
work, and if We may Judge correctly from tn
expressions Of these Who are IN authority, tn
probabilities are favorable for ten days
Damp next ysar, The good order Of the CAM

NEWPORT, RI, July ga few days age
Postmaster Brown received instructions from
Postmaster General Wanamaker to add two
letter carriers to the force in order, it is said
that some Philadelphia cottagers might re.
eeive the Philadelphia papers earlier.
Postmaster Brown had not been consulted
and did not approve of the expense. He dis.
regarded the order and wrote Mr. wanamakel
that the change was unnecessary and would moi
be made, adding that if Mr.. Wanamaker did
not approve this course he could appoint q
new postmaster.

pleted the job when the wagons moved
around to haul away the enormous
piles of baggage. They broke away from their
labors every little while on excuses the most
trivial They decorated the fir trees on COM
pany streets with bottles--empty in every in
stance-and then broke the bottles by firing
stones and cord wood at them Occasionally
they sought more violent exercise and then
they tossed one more OF. their
comrades in blankets. When such
sport became wearisome company
or two or three companies would tear around
to the headquarters of their colonel or major
or captain and there yell like so many Buffalo
Bill Indians until the object of their noisy ado
ration consented to make speech. Some
times they struck an officer who was no orator,
and in such cases the speeches would be more
incohereEt thGn the cheering and Yelling.

too has been far superior to that Of last year.
The medical officers detailed each day reported
promptly and their reports were attended 10
without the slightest delay. The inspections
conducted by these officers extended even to
the food and the cooking thereof An
instance where this inspection was
of much value can be cited One morning
the medical officer discovered something that
the cooks had not yet found out. The corn
meal was souring just as il was being made into
bread. and when the doctor discovered the fact
the whole batch was thrown away. Had IL not
been for his vigilance bread unfit for food
would probably have been placed on the tables,
and then those who had been Directing to the
food furnished by the commissary would have
had something to kick about
