tn Abandon Fort Custer.

Washington, Nov. S.-The war depart
n.ent, acting On the recommendation OF
Gen. Wade, commanding the department
Of the Dakotas. has ordered the abandon
mcnt Of Fort Custer. Montana.
Gen. Wade also recommended the
abandonment of Fort Assinaboine, Mon
tana, but it is understood that the depart
ment thinks it impracticable at this time.
One of the reasons for the abandonment
of Fort Custer is that IT'S sanitary condi-
ton is bad, and the water supply is not
what it should be- Troops A, B, + and
X, Tenth cavalry, and companies A and
ID, Second infantry, are now stationed at
Fort Custer. 1. is expected that some of
those troops will be sent to the new mill
tary post of Fort Arizona.
