SHAN BATTLE BY SOLDIERS.
DELAWARE BOYS PUT UP SUCH A
REALISTIC BATTIE THEY
WERE STOPPED.

Middletown, July 7.-Yesterday was
cool and pleasant at Camp Tunnel,
and the Delaware soldiers took advan-
tage of the weather 10 fight the sham
battle that they have had under con-
temptation for several days. The bat
tie took place between Company X, un-
der LieuteDants Dillon and Ellison, and
Company A, under Lieutenant Fore

realistic that the officers called a halt,
as they feared the men would injure
one another.
Charges have been preferred against
a private in Company F, who recently
struck an officer, and he will be tried
before a general court-martial.
While two prisoners were being
taken up for trial yesterday morning
they escaped from their guard, but were
