Washington. April eo.-The house to-
urs the bill empowering the president
to call out the volunteer forces and
providing for their organization. Both
the president and Secretary Alger had
urged the Imperative necessity Of the
passing OF the bill to-day. n Chair
man Hull of the military committee
drove II under with whip and spur. The
bill was drafted at the war department,
introduced in the house yesterday, and
considered and reported by the COM
mittee to-day. No such expedition
could have been possible except under
the stress OF war pressure. The bill is
permanent in its character.
The principal change in the bill as in
troduced was that the appointment Of
all regimental officers are to be made
by the governors of the states instead
of by the president. as was proposed
originally by the war department. This
action conforms to the practices of the
civil war.
