THE CASE OF MAI. MOORE.

Aaron Bradshaw Does Not Propose to Aid
In Displacing an Ex-Union Soldier.
Differences Of opinion as to the proposition
to displace Col. Moore from his position as
superintendent Of police are becoming more
marked daily, especially among the more promi-
nent colored citizens.
Aaron Bradshaw, chairman Of the republican
central committee which sent Gleeson and Car
son to the Minneapolis convention, being seen
by a STAR reporter this morning in relation TO
what part the committee was taking in the re-
ported agitation in police circles. said: 1.-THE
committee has taken no action against Maj
to. know of no reason why a change should
be made. Maj. Moore has certainly filed the
place satisfactorily to everybody and WITH credit
TO himself. 1t may be true that he is democrat.
but it would seem to be an outrage to single
him out from the large number of democrats
holding Offices IN the District government and
endeavor thereby to satisfy the republicans who
feel that they have not been treated fairly since
this administration came into power. Besides,
Major Moore a soldier and served his coun-
try faithfully in its hour OF dire distress. and
for one do not propose to Join in any howl
against such a man, no matter what his politi-
cal opinions may be.
Ii looks to me az il some one high in power and
responsibility in the District government was
trying to cover his own political shortcomings
and at the same time cancel some personal OBJ
legations by sacrificing the major. i do not be-
lieve q change will be made. The Office OF chief
of police is one Of peculiar responsibility. and if
q change has been determined upon by those in
authority the new chief should be man whose
record is we'll known and whose fitness for the
place is beyond question"

ON RECRUITING SERVICE.
A Closer Attention to Duty to he Required OF
Officers in the Future.

A Closer Attention to Duty to be Required of
Officers in the Future.
Gen. Schofield has directed that one company
officer Captain or first Eeutenant) from the
first, fifth, seventh and ninth cavalry, and the
first, seventh. ninth, eleventh, thirteenth. if
teenth, seventeenth, twenty first twenty-third
and twenty-ffth infantry be selected by the
respective regimental commanders actually
with their regiments and ordered to report in
person, to the superintendent OF the recruiting
service. New York city. by October i, 1892.
"Officers are usually glad to get to New
York, said an army officer TO STAR man to-
day, ''but they won't find this detail SO much
of a snap in the future. The department has
given them a gentle hint that closer attention
to duty will be required hereafter"
The hint referred 10 is an order just issued
by Gen Schofied. as follows: As the reputa-
ton and usefulness of the army depend IN no
small degree upon the character and qualifica-
tons of the men entering its ranks. it is neces-
sary that the officers charged with the RESPONSE
BILE duty of recruiting should fully appreciate
Its vital importance. as well as the fact that it
is an arduous and exacting duty when conscien-
tiously performed No officer should be Sc
lected for ii who has been for protracted pc
riod on detached service. or who desires the de-
tail merely for pleasure. nor should any officer
be given the detail who is not known to be dis
eliminating III Judgment and painstaking, en-
ergetlc and efficient in the discharge Of his mill
tary duties. Regimental commanders are en-
joined to be guided solely by these considera-
tons in making the required selections from
their respective regiments.
Recruiting officers are required to give close
personal attention to all their duties and every
effort must be made to prevent the improper
enlistment Of minors, or Of men Of vicious or
doubtful habits. The superintendent will see
that the provisions Of the regulations in this
respect are strictly enforced.

TO CARE FOR THE SICK.

TO CARE FOR THE SICK.
A Hospital Service to Be Arranged for During
the G. A. X. Encampment.
One of the interesting features of the arrange.
ments now being made by the citizens execu.
tive committee for the reception Of the old
soldiers who will be here to attend the G.. A. r.
encampment will be the provision which will
be made for the care Of the sick. In view of
the fact that so many thousands oe visitors will
be here Chairman Edison has decided to estab-
lish regular hospital system.
There will be q central hospital, with nti-
merous branches and full corps of nurses
doctors and ambulances. The central hospital
is the large building on 18th street below Al
baughs, where the bureau of statistics wns
located for SO many years. The
rooms will be fitted up as wards and
will be supplied with everything essential to a
frst-class hospital. Most Of the cases. it is sup
posed. will be what are known as acute and due
to stomach disorders.
HOSPITAL TENTS on THE MONUMENT GROUNDS.
In the vicinity Of the buildings used as free
quarters and in the localities where the tents
will be pitched will be tents fitted up as hospi-
tails. Patients will be removed at first to these
attention. In the event that further
treatment is required the patient will be
taken to the central hospital. system
will be established so that ambuiances will be in
easy call and wherever men are congregated in
any great numbers the hospital service Of the
committee will extend its form of relief.
In Boston. where n somewhat similar service
was established. some 900 patients were treated.
One of the visiting veterans, man from
this city by the way, died in one of
these hospitals. 1t is expected
that this imprcyised hospital will have some
$500 or 1000 patients during the four or five
days the crowd is here.
TO FEED THE VETERANS.
Chairman Edison is now engaged in working
out plan by which places where meals can be
obtained will be located in the vicinity Of the
free quarters and the school buildings.
1t is the intention to exercise some super
vision over the food that is to be served to the
visitors, the aim being to enable the strangers
20 obtain plain, simple meals at q moderate
cost. As there is considerable money in
prospect TO the men who run such places
there is no lack of offers. But the point il
to hit upon some uniform plan SO that the mel
in all parts of the city viii get meals and will
not be obliged to pay extravaSant prices.

old line democrats were alarmed. others smiled
securely. The question of disciplining the
makers Of the NEW departure Was brought
before the state democratic committee upon
the ground that they had arraigned the party
and were in practical revolt against il; but
nothing was done except TO provide for Joint
debates in every county by all candidates for
state Offices Several efforts were made to
organize farmers against the Tllman move

ducing candidates TO appear against the Tillman
ticket, but by the time the canvass Of the state
began In June some leaders had been found for
the foriorn nope The small politicians of local
influence had, however, jumped 10 the winning
side: the merchants were made timid by threats
OF alliance boycotts and the business int rests
generally were rendered too timid to resist what
seemed TO be an irresistible movement.
The campaign meetings, which began in June
and ended IN August, were succession of Till
