ADJuTaNT- GENERALS OFFICE,
| STATE OF Texas,
AUSTIN, TEX, June 70, 1880.
| General order No. &C.
l. As indicated in paragraph of gen.
eral order No. 65, A. g. o., June 10,
1890, Communication OF rations for state
troops, officers and men, while travelling
10 and from the camp of instruction al
San Antonio, will be allowed as per
table of allowances hereto attached.
2. This Communication will be paid by
the state on vouchers giving the number
! of men, place of residence or station
and signed by the company commander;
and in the case of officers travelling
singly will be signed by the officers them
selves. Blanks for the purpose will be
| furnished. The vouchers will be made
| out for the number of men reporting for
| duty to the assistant acknowledgement
| first division Texas volunteer guard, ut
| San Antonio, and must correspond with
| the "Report of the Command filed on
| arrival at camp with said assistant adju-
| tant-general. Settlement of claims for
| Communication will be made during en-
| campment, for both going to and return
ing from San Antonio, with officers who
nave auVH0C5u u pay LUZ tuo
ratiOns before leaving the station.
In the table of allowances for commu-
tation of rations, the allowances are
made for full companies of thirty men.
If the number of men reporting for duty
should fall below thirty, whicn in some
instances may occur, pro rata reduc-
ton of the amount will be made. If
companies report with more than the
designated number, pro rata increase
will be allowed.
1t is suggested that companies carry
cooked rations, both going to and re-
turning from camp, as the cost will not
be as much as if meals are taken at eat
ing stations, and in no event will the
amount of allowance, as indicated in
table of allowances, be increased by rea-
son of troops taking meals at such
stations.
g.. The report 10 be made to the assist
ant acknowledgement of the First division
Texas Volunteer Guard, on arrival at
camp of instruction, will be made in
strict conformity with, and on blanks for
the purpose, and must give number
present and absent, with name, on back
of said return of those ''absent with
Leave giving reasons of excuse, and
names of those absent without leave.
Regimental and staff officers, and COM
panies and bands not reporting at camp
of instruction, will be reported by regi-
mental commanders on morning reports
of regiments as 'tabsent without leave. -
4. General order No. So makes it |
obligatory on all general, staff and |
regimental officers, and the companies |
mentioned therein, to attend the camp |
of instruction. and no frivolous excuse |
for non-attendance will be entertained. |
Cases of "absent without Ieave' will be |
Investigated and acted upon at later |
day.
By command of Governor L. s. Ross,
COMMUNICATIVE chief.

! preference by commissioners who had
been approached on the subject of the
site.
Seeing the prospect of the lake front
slipping away from them, the Illiuoi:
Central directors yesterday executed q
complete change of front. They agreed
to the payment of 81 800 900, and noti~
fed the World g fair directorate that
their terms had been accepted. But the
hesitation had proved fatal. Confronted
with the more than possible refusal of
the national commissioners to accept the
lake front site as a suitable one on the
terms of the World g fair act, the local
committee on buildings and grounds re-
ceived the report from the Illinois Gen.
trail road and placed it on file without
adoption.
This means simply that negotiations
with the Illinois Central are "off' and
that the question of site is as far from
settlement as ever. Matters Will
now be much simplified when
the committee appointed by Mayor
Cregier and the committee on
buildings and grounds meet on Saturday.
The committee includes A dermen Gull
lerton, Kent, McGillen, Gshan, Durham
and Ryan. They will meet at the city
clerk IS office this morning to organize
and will meet the World IS fair people to-
morrow. Inquiry among the individual
members of the city committee failed to
discover that any one of its members is
disposed TO contes. any of the resolu-
tons so far adopted by the Worlds fair
directors. A general feeling prevailed
that the appointment of the city commit
tee was merely for the purpose of seeing
that the city's interest in any possible
site which might be selected would not
be ieopardized. At the time it was not
known that the lake front site was out of
the race, but the aldermen were not dis
posed to be unduly critical even If that
site were selected. The only alderman
who expressed q preference for q site,
presuming the lake front should miss it,
was Alderman Kent. His choice was
Garfield park, but he would have been
willing TO forego even an expression of
preference if the World fair directors
and the national commission favored the
lake front.

xeIepment of the mail service of Arkan-

ADVANTAGES TO TEXAS.
Not only would Arkansas secure a
much better mail service, but Texas
would have complete railNa y postoffice
service from Texarkana to Fort Worth
and from Texarkana to Palestine. Not
only this service, but the clerks engaged
therein, would be entitled to the full pay
allowed by the government, which they
do not now receive.
THE REGISTERED POUCH BUSINESS.
We hear rumors that Superintendent
Weaver is already taking steps detrimen-
tai to the registered mail service of Little
Rock; that portion of the registered
pouches from Little Rock have already
been ordered discontinued, with instruc-
ton to have Little Rock registered mail
placed in pouches at the depot. 1t should
nor be permitted to any railway mail
sSayice superintendent to treat that ser
Vice as personal property and work
clerks beyond human endurance to carry
out bad scheme because a pet one.
The public has an interest in this mat
ter because it greatly impairs the eff
cienoy of the service.
In conclusion, we recommend that the
postmaster-general give the Arkansas
service a thorough investigation, send
for persons and papers, and we are salts
field that justice will be melted out, and
better talent brought to Its manage
ment. JAMES a. FoNEs,

LAKE FRONT WON'T DO.
1t is Officially Declared Out of the Race for
the Worlds Fair Site.


the Worlds Fair Site.
CHICAGO, ILL, June 2s.-The lake
front site was yesterday officially
Fsoratohed in the race for the Columbian
Exposition. Hesitation on the part of
the Illinois Central railroad is primarily
responsible for this result After much
discussion of propositions and counter
propositions between the Worlds fair
directors and the Illinois Central board
the lake front was practically adopted as
the site, only one condition intervening.
That condition was the payment of
81 800, 200 by fhe railroad company to
the capital stock Of the exposition. The
demand was held to be excessive by the
railroad directors, and as stoutly upheld
by the exposition people.
But while both sides were arguing fhs
mhtter the national commissioners began
70 arrive IN Chicago. Objections to the
lake front site, which had been freely
ventilated by holders of Worlds fair
stock and citizens of Chicago DESTROYS OF
