PEACE IN TIE REGIMENT.
THE THIS VETERAN ORGANIZATION TAKES
THE FIRST STEP,
IF THE OFFICERS OF THE ACTIVE CORPS MEET
THEM HALF WAY THE TROUBLE MAY
BE ENDED.

After years Of bitter dissenson, eliminating In It'll
cation, there is at last fair prospect Of peace be-
tween the veterans Of the 9TH Regiment and the Board
Of officers Of the regiment This view was taken by
several speakers last night at the quarterly meeting
Of the veterans of the 9TH Regiment, and while no
formal understanding has yet been reached the hatchet
was more than half buried and the hope was freely
expressed that the Board Of Officers would now extend
the olive branch. The meeting was nevertheless, eX-
ceedingy animated, and several important details in
the programme Of peace are yet to be perfected.
The meeting was held in Parlor d OF the Fifth
Avenue Hotel and in spite OF the heat the room was
full until late hour Colonel Edward G.. Arthur,
the commandant of the organization, presided; Ad-
juant William b. COugltry acted as secretary. 1t
had been announced that the question OF maintaining
uniformed battalion would come up and the matter
brought before the meeting by Colonel Arthur who
made report behalf OF the Board Of Management.
lie briefly reviewed the history of the trouble from
the beginning, but did not submit any recommendations.
He announced that the Committee of Defence had de-
cided TO discontinue the suit against the Board OF
Officers Of the regiment.
A small avalanche of resolutions. amendments and
suggestions followed the report and some of the mem
bers wished to abolish the uniformed battalion at once
without regard to the constitution Others desired to
refer the matter to the battalion itself Many Of the
resolutions proposed were declared out of ORDER and
the following which was introduced by Captain ".
Gaycr DOmincl was adopted:
Resolved That the whole question Of uniforms and all
matters bearing upon the differences between the Veteran
Organization and the Board Of Officers OF the 9TH Rcgl
be- hereby referred to the Conference Com
mttee Of the Committee Defence to report to the Oco
Der meeting Of the organization.
Tile litigation referred to was begun in January,
1880, an action being brought to test tie right Of the
Board OF Officers TO eject the veterans from the room
which had been set apart for their use at the armory.
Judges Ourien and Patterson both ruled against the
veeglnS and the General Term of the Supreme Court
sustained their decision. 1t was at first intended 10
carry the matter the Court Of Appeals, and the do
termination of the committee which had full power, TO
drop the matter is distinct move toward peace TWO
letters from Colonel Appleton were read IN when
the hope Of speedy and amlcable adjustment Oh the
trouble expressed.
The meeting also directed Colonel Arthur to appoint
a committee Of twenty FIVE to make arrangements iSl
the annual dinner on october q. The committee VIII
not be named for some days.
