Will Be Accomplished.
CAPTAIN EDWARDS WRITES A LETTER
The Guard of New York and Penn
sykania Compared.
FIFTH BATTALION CHANGES

The assignment OF quarters in the new
brigade armory mas been decided upon by
Cen Ordway He has put the same on
paper but the papar has been stored away
tn the innermost compartment OF huge
steel safe, and no human being is at all
Nkely to be informed in regard to the same
until a general order appears, about jan
nary 1, directing the brigade to assemble
and march to its new home. 1t Is known
that the general headquarters offices ana
troop A. light battery A and the second
separate company are to be located on the
nrst floor, while the reception room VIII be
a, the second floor but beyond this no
knowledge whatsoever as regards the
rooms to be turned over to the various
conpanIes can be CLEANED. The general,
however, has endeavored to please every
one. so far as lies within his power.
. AZ stated when the change OF armories
is 10 occur the brigade will be ordered TO
assemble, as if for parade, and then march
al 10 the structure at 9th and l. streets
northy est. The quartermaster OF each
battalion will superintend the remoVai OF
the property In his care.
A matter of much importance to the local
,,,ardsn1en is the fact that the new armory

pm on Sundays the doors VIII not De
opened. This action viii undoubtedly enii-
mate from the guard what is known as the
foafing element. and that is the desired oD-
feet even though the brigade should De
yeduced in membership thereby to but q
few hundred men.
With the change OF quarters will come
that much-talked-of transfer of company
b second battalion. and company ID, sec
ond battalion. to the third battalion. Prob
ably at the same time Is to occur the mus
fer-in of the National Rifles as a part of
the second battalion. 1t is also rumored
that a new major for the third battalion
"a TO be appointed in connection with the
changes spoken OF. The first battalion Will
remain In its present quarters at 18th and
L streets northwest, but is not TO be allow
"a rent for the same, as heretofore.
A likelihood exists that the proposed
marching competition between companies
made I'D of the members of each battalion
viii be discussed seriously within the next
fsw months. and an effort made TO make
the same a reality.
