to make the most of the opportunity, and
the same inspiration has been transfused
generally among the men.
For the past few days, and particularly
Fircc yesterday morning, the brigade ar
mory resembled d huge bee hive with the
inhabitants laboring in manner that
would put the proverbially industrious
beaver to shame. Quartermasters were
busy packing evercoats and company bag
gage, issuing clothing and equipments, and
at the same time endeavoring TO Keep their
minds clear. The enlisted men were oc-
cupied in rolling wooden and rubber blank
cts, packing blanket bags, and polishing

Night Work.
Especially was activity in evidence last
evening. Instead of being closed at 1l.30
pm. as is customary, the armory re-

preparation continued IN some quarters
without cessation until this morning. A
number of officers and men spent the night

Important Offices to Be Filled by the
First of Next Month.
Several important changes are apt to
occur in the Treasury Department on July
l, the beginning of the next fiscal year
plan under favorable consideration is
the transfer of Mr.. Scott Nesbitt, chief
clerk Of the internal revenue bureau, to
the chiefship of the appointmen division.
Since the retirement of Major Kretz this
office has been temporarily filled by Mr..
Wetmore of the chief clerks office. Mr.. E
c. Johnson, chief of the income tax divis-
ion, which will go out Of existence on the
first proximo. is booked to succeed Mr.. Nes-
bitt as chief clerk of the internal revenue
bureau.
1t is said that q change in the office of
deputy commissioner OF internal revenue
will also occur on the first proXimo. This
office is filled by Mr.. George w. Wilson
of Ohio. He is a holdover from the Har-
rison administration. He is a republican
and rendered his resignation at the be-
ginning OF the present administration, and
has stood ready to relinquish his office at
any time since. His long retention is un-
doubtedly due mainly to his special quail
fcations for the Office he holds. His po-
htical opponents are after his scalp and
are now said to be confident of success.
