Called.
and

South birmingham, Aug. Slower
nors day at the camp Of the Second
brigade was an ideal one in every par
ticular and the largest gathering of
people yet to visit the camp witnessed
the passage in review of the troops be-
fore the governor and his staff.
Considerable trouble between the
Eighth regiment and the provost guard
was occastoned about noon by Capt.
Bancroft's orders in RECORD to allow
ing persons inside the grounds
1t was understood by the troops at
camp that visitors would be admitted
at any nour and early this morning
people began to gather, only to find
they would not be admitted to the
grounds without a pass.
Members Of the Eighth failed to see
why their friends should not be admit,5
ted to the grounds, and started in to
make things as unpleasant as possible
for the provost guard. Capt. Bancroft
was obliged to call his father, Brig.
Gen. Bancroft before a quietus could
be put on the unruly soldiers. Gen.
Bancroft did not look kindly on the OUT
break and told the members of the
Eighth that although he had compli-
mented them he could DO otherwise and
would do so il it was necessary. The
soldiers quietly dispersed, but in the
meantime several hundred people had
stepped under the ropes and had the
freedom of the grounds. 1T was intend
ed to keep the crowd outside the ropes
until after review hut later the crowd
was allowed inside.
Gen. Bancroft later said that he did
not suppose the spirit Of insubordina-
ton was rampant through the regi-
ment, but if he did, he would put the
entire regiment under arms and keep
them from appearing at any drills dur
ing the day The incident is now
closed, however, and the general thinks
there is a spirit of INSTRUMENTATION in
the regiment which has never been
crushed
Lieut.. Gov. Murray Crane reviewed
the troops. He arrived on the ground
at i O'Clock this morning.
The Ninth regiment did an excellent
passage in review, and the Emmets
only added considerable glory to their
reputation by their work on the field.
Croker was with the regiment and
won for his company much applause
along the line of parade.
Color Sergeant j. j. Maggie of Wor-
cester was overcome by the heat at re-
view, and came very near falling to|
the ground. He was taken to his quar-
tiers by the hospital corps and revived
sufficiently tonight to be around.
Camp VIII be broken tomorrow about
noon and Gen. Bancroft expects to have
the muster field cleared at l O'Clock
Battery A will leave camp earlier in
the day and the Emmets will leave
Framingham at .55 for Worcester. The
men are satisfied in many ways with
camp life curing the tour of duty but
also have been obliged to submit to
many details that have been disagree
able in the extreme.
Tonight, the last one in camp, is any
thing but what Gen. Bancroft would
commend. The men are bent on nav
ing a final fling at discipline and they
are determined it shall not be hamper
ed by anything.
