LAMBERTVILLE COMPANY TOO SLOW


| CAMP VOORHEES,. SEA GIRT, July 16,
lS9S.-The camp at Sea Girt is rapidly as
suming all the aspects of a regular army
| encampment The men are being fitted
out completely, and very soon the sight
Of 4 sentry on duty in citizen's clothes
| will be as great a novelty as it is now
common. Cos. and NJ were equipped
yesterday. and the remainder of the regi-
| ment-that is. the companies which have
been mustered in-will be fitted out To-
day. Quartermaster Valentine has per-
sonally attended to this work and it is
being rushed through. Each man receives
a blouse, trousers, undershirt, drawers,
| hosiery and shoes, and, better than all
| else they fit the men well.
| Governor Voorhees, yesterday decided to
notify the Lambertville company to stay
| at home and gave Colonel Smith permis-
sion to ill out the Regiment with COM
pany from Jersey City. Within five min
| utes the Colonel had made all arrange
ments and had notified the Governor that
| the company would arrive today. Chas.
| II. Springstead Inspector of Rife Prac-
| tice, was appointed Captain. Harry Bow
ley, Battalion Adjutant, and T. Bergen
| Gaddis, Second Lieutenant of Company e
| are to be the lieutenants. The physical
examination of the men commenced as
soen as they arrived, and they will prob
ably be mustered in on Monday morning.
| Colonel Smith desired to have the regi-
| ment in shape to muster in on Sunday,
| but it is hardly expected that everything
will be ready by that time.

the Governors Secretary today. They
are dated the 18th. but the commissions
are to take effect the 18th of July. the day
the regiment came into camp. Colonel
Smiths commission will be an exception
to this, as his takes effect on June 50.
Private Spatz of Company E, was over
come by the heat on the drill field yester-
day. and was carried to the hospital tent.
His case was not serious.
Company M. Captain George f. Sey-
mour commanding. was the last of the
original Jersey City companies to be
mustered in. Captain Seymour marched
his men over to the Governors Reserva-
ton, yesterday morning. to the music of
bugle and drum. The men were nearly
all uniformed and made an agreeable
contrast to those of the other companies
now in camp. Company NJ is composed
| of Companies x ana NJ of Hoboken, and
is that eity's representation in the volun-
teer service The men are nearly all
| single, which adds much to their desira-
BILE qualities as volunteer soldiers.
