The variety performance opposite the

IL was stated that tAe reason for send
ing regulars out Of the country In prefer
ence to volunteers that Secretary Alger

complaint from the former and would,
therefore. prefer them for garrison duty
In foreign lands. No one around the War
Department will say that this is true. but
broad limitations are made that some
thing Of the kind would not startle the
officials around the big building.

there was little probability of the Second
