MORE ROOM SOUGHT AT CAMP THOMAS.

the volunteer army will move. Preparations
have been In progress for ten days to encamp
more troops here. and when the volunteers en-
listed under President McKiney's second call
are mustered in the majority OF them will be
ordered to Chickamauga General Brooke
informed Of this some time ago. and negotiations
have been pending for some days for land In
this vicinity Upon which TO encamp the soldiers
Suitable ground has not been secured. Cen
eral Boynton and others interested have thought
that camp In closer proximity to the city
would be more suited TO the purpose OF the
Army. However. some little hitch has occurred
in the land DEAL and General Brooke is In favor
OF establishing the new arrivals on the ground
surrounding Crawfish Springs. near the new
Letter Hospital.
There Is yet ample room in Chlckamauga Park
for twice many troops as are now there 1t
Is not the camp sites that take up the ground
but room for naneuvres and drills must be
reserved Just many acres reserved for
every regiment, and every encampment is about
q half mile from the next. The volunteers re-
Quire more room than Regulars.
