FIRST MEET SINCE PUBLICATION
OF GEN. CHAFFEE's ORDER.
Program Of twenty-five Events at
Fort Myer Tomorrow Ar
rangements Made.

In pursuance with orders from the gen.
eral in command of the department of the
east, post athletic meet will be held at
Fort Myer, Va, beginning at 8 o'clock to-
morrow morning and continuing through
the day. Tho meeting is for the purpose
OF stimulating the troops in athletic exer-
cises and for the purpose Of securing con-
testants for the district meeting. which will
be held shortly. The meet tomorrow will
Include twenty-five events, both on foot and
mounted.
t.. About the middle Of July Gen. Chaffee.
commanding the department of the east,
authorized the publication of an order, in
which he stated 1t to be the desire of the
department commander to do all in his
power to promote athletics in the army.
With this object in view it was then an
nounced that the department would be
divided Into districts for the purpose Of
contest and that three classes of meetings
would be held by the department. First
the post meet, opened to all troops station
ed at the post wherein the meet is held !;
second, the district meet. open to the win
ners at the meets of posts within the dis
trict in which it is held. and finally the de-
partment meet, open to the winners in the
district events
1t is presumed that other department
commanders will take the same action that
Gen. Chafee has taken and that there will
be meetings held Of the winners of the de-
partment matches to decide the champion
ships of the army.
First to Be Held.
Post meets are to be held. it is understood,
every three months and district meets every
six months. The one to be held at Fort
Myer tomorrow will be the first in this Sec
ton since the publication of the new orders
The events will be run off as quickly as pos
sible and will begin at 8 o'clock promptly.
The events include both mounted and dis
mounted exercises and the chances are that
1t will require most of the day to run them
off.
The band will be in attendance and every
effort will be made to make the spectators
comfortable. Col. Winfield S. Edgerly fort
commander. will have charge Of the pro-
gram, assisted by the members Of the regi-
mental staff and the officers In charge of
the troops of the cavalry, signal corps and
hospital corps.

south end of the Aqueduct bridge every
five minutes after $50 o'clock tomorrow

Action Favorable to Gill.

For the purpose OF this convention the
district congressional committee recognized
the Monroe county faction that was re-
Gently turned down by the state committee.
and this action is favorable to Gill.
There is no evidence OF Hanna interfer-
ence In this contest beyond the mentioned
action OF the state committee, which, the
committee protests, had no fractional sig
nificance. But II 1t was intended as
notice to Mr.. GIL there is still plenty OF
time for Chairman Dick to do some work
In the district. There Is belief that there
will be no Interference by the state organ
izatfon with the choice Of Gill's successor,
for whoever he is, even though nominated
with Gilrs help 1t may be taken for grant,
ed that he will not quarrel with the pow
ers that be about patronage, as GIL is said

tee order the delegates chosen by precincts
instead of by counties, and then projected
Armstrong into the contest SO aJ to split
Belmont and reduce Weems' support from
his own county.
Carroll county presents the name OF J.
H. Blythe, young attorney; Harrison
county will no doubt be solid for Hollings-

satisfied with Armstrong having no resi-

delegates for Probate Judge Mansfield and
