small sized insurrection in the camp of
the Thirteenth Minnesota yesterday
when the news became general that
the regiment would not be paid until
Wednesday. When the matter was
first rumored Sunday the men did not
seem to care much about it, but when
they fully realized what it meant they
protested, and in no mild terms.
In every company street an indigna-
ton meeting was held and large COM
mittees were appointed to wait on Col.
Ames and protest in behalf Of the en-
tire regiment. Col. Ames. Col. Ames
explained to the committees that he
had been to Gen. Shafter and asked
that the men be given their pay, but
that Gen. Shafter said there was a
lack of paymasters, as number of
his staff had been transferred to Ma
Mia, and that he could not get enough
to pay off the regiment until Thurs
day, as this was the end of the quar-
ter and the paymasters were very busy
making up their quarterly reports.
