Mr.. ]. Nota McGill, register of Wills. de-
clared that the committee should adopt
some plan of securing employment for the
men IN the regiment, who, upon enhsting.
gave up their positions and Will return
home without work. A committee Of not
less than FIVE should be appointed: this
committee should have headquarters. in
order that the men might file applications
for positions. The business men should
then be urged to consult the committee
when in need of clerks or other help. Mr..
Mc9iill made motion to this effect.
chairman Sylvester announced that al
ready committee was at work investi-
eating cases where relief is needed among
the families of the soldiers This COM
mittee consists of Edward J. Roche, DR..
william r Young, Mrs. r. D. Mussey of
the Red Cross. Mrs. Elizabeth Blair Lee
of the Daughters of the American Revo-
luton and Major William Brooks 1t was
suggested that this committee and the one
suggested by Mr.. McGill should be one.
Mr.. Theodore Noyes thought that by the
merging of the two committees two birds
would be killed with one stone. The COM
mittee might see to the relief of the
families and the employment of the men
at one and the same time. The motion
made by Mr.. McGill was adopted the I'M
Outstanding being that his committee and
the relief committee shall work together.
Mr. Ecson said that 1t very import
ant that the finance committee should
have early contributions 1t would facili-
tate the work greatly if the people of the
District would come forward without wait
ing for solicitation from the committee
At the suggestion of Mr. G. W. Evans
and upon the motion of Major Hendricks,
the following resolution was adopted:
-Ihat the disbursing officers of the ex-
ecuttve departments are invited and au-
thorized to receive any voluntary .contri-
buttons that may be made by the employees
OF their respective departments, for the
purpose of carrying out the objects of the
committee appointed at the mass meet
ing at the National Theaterr
MT w. H. Moses said he was glad to see
that the committee was resolving itself
into relief association, as well as a re-
ception company. He thought that relief
of the soldiers and families should be the
primary object
An adjournment was taken until FRIDAY
evening, when the committee will meet
again at the Ebbitt House.

MIR. Warmers Views,

Mr.. B. H Warner returned to the CITY
tecay. after an absence of several weeks
Mr. Warner said to a Star reporter that
he was most heartily in favor of showing
to the District soldiers that their services
were fully and highly appreciated He
added: Let the contributions and cooper
alton be general ard represent all our peo-
pie. 1t should, however, be remembered
that the soldiers will be worn out with their
journey, many of them weakened from ex-
posture and illness. l would prefer giving
them a rousing reception without prolong
ing it, then letting them have a rest of
day or two before the public exercises are
held: but, of course, the committee has and
will consider all of these things, and do
what seems best"

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1t is very desirable to make the recep-
ton of our brave boys on their return from
the war a memorable occasion. 1t is es
pecially desirable that the line of marcu be
made bright with old glory, and as bunting
cannot be had from the government with
out special act of Congress L would sug
gest that our citizens residing off the line
of march loan to their merchant friends on

An adjourned meeting of the survivors Of
the old District of Columbia volunteers will
be held tonight at Room 10, National
Guard Armory. The object is to cooperate
with the citizens committees in the recep-
ton to be rendered the LIST District h-si-
ment when it shall return to Washington.
1t is expected that there will be large at

understanding tnat only relatives should be
admitted to see the soldiers, and that al
mission should be strictly by card.
Mr.. Wine thought this might be discrim-
mating.
To this Mr.. West replied that there GER
tain1y was not to be any discrimination
The parents ana near relatives of the sol
dierS and those whose right is sacred should
have the first chance of greeting their loved
ones returning from the war. The. BOYS
wanted no morbid crowd of sightseers on
hand when they first their parents. The
relatives would bring the crowd within the
grounds up to about 1900 persons, and this
number Is all that can be well accommo-
dated. If admission were general, those
who had no right to be there would crowd
out the parents and even the soldiers, pos
sibly. Mr.. Wine declared that this explana-
ton made the matter perfectly clear and
he withdrew any objection to the plan
Mr.. ]. Holdsworth Gordon, speaking on
behalf of the relatives of the boys in Com
pany H, which is now on engineering duty
in Porto Rico, wanted to know what was
to be done for these brave fellows who
We're not at Santiago, but were doing their
full duty in another foreign island He
wanted to know If they, too, would receive
medals of honor. Company H, he declared,
was unfortunate in not having a newspaper
man along, and had thus been lost sight of.
Maj. Sylvester assured Mr. Gordon that the
boys of Company H were receiving atten-
ton at the hands of the committee and
would be wei taken care Of
Mr.. Fred Hnrries, brother of Col. Harries
said that he had heard some talk of the
War Department assigning regiment from
Camp Aiger as an escort for the District
soldiers. He said the boys of the National
Guard were anxious to know whether they
were to be the escort or not. The matter
was left to the committee on military.
