AT SMELLING
War Dept Decides to Station
Two Batteries of Artil-

From TIE JoltTnas Bureau. Roems <S, Pest
Building, WaShtnGsST-
Washington, Nov. General Miles and
Secretary Root have been in consultation
during the past three weeks arranging for
the United States. The determination to
send two regiments to the Philippines
has necessitated changes in the stations
of troops left here and the plans have
about been completed for the transfers.
One part of the movement that will
probably be ordered in a few days pro-
vides for the stationing of two batteries
of artillery at Fort Smelling. Representa-
tives Stevens and Fletcher and Senator
Clapp have been pressing Secretary Root
TO place one battery at Smelling and it
was understood at one time that this
would be done. Then someone at the de-
partment changed his mind and it was
stated that no battery would go to the
Minnesota post. During the past week
however, General Miles has been figuring
and has reached the conclusion that two
batteries can be stationed there The
numbers Of the batteries have not been
determined so far as could be ascertained
to-day, but the selection will be made
later in the week.
Lieutenant Charles B. Drake, First cav
airy, and Edward S. Walton, Eighteenth
infantry, have been ordered before an ex-
amining board at Fort Meade, S. D., for
examination for promotion to captain
cies.
Post Commission Sergeant Frederick
Matthias, at Fort Smelling, has been or
dered to Fort Morgan, Ala, for duty.
