Colonel Clarence A. Sinclair of the First
Regiment of the Missouri National Guard
has issued orders for the formation OF the
provisional Missouri Regiment. which he
will command, and which will participate
In the maneuvers Of regular and State
troops at Fort Riley. Kas.. in October.
The joint maneLvers will be under the
command OF Major General John c. Bates.
U. s. A. who will have about 1900 troops.
one-third Of which will consist of regulars
and the remainder Of provisional regiments
from Kansas, Missouri, Colorado. Iowa. Ne
braska. Dakota and other Western States.
The encampment will continue for about
three weeks, and il Is contemplated that in
that time the troops will be exercised in
artillery. cavalry and infantry tactics and
general maneuyers There will be outposts
to defend. which will be attacked by su-
perior and inferior forces to test the
strength of both. There will be infantry
attacks against artillery positions. Wagon
trains will be sent out with proper escorts
to be attacked by an enemy, and qualified
umpires, from the United Staes Army, will
decide the results of these and various other
engagements.
COLONEL SINCLAIR'S VIEWS.
THE benefits arising from such an assem-
blage of national and State troops said
Colonel Sinclair, cannot, I think, be over
estimated. The opportunity for exercis-
ing our men in large formations Is in it
self OF great value to the troops.
Then we get to know something Of the
condition Of our own guard as compared
with those of man. other States That
begets new comradship in the guard II

arising from comraoship with the regular
troops Of the army. II all helps to break
down the oldtime reserve between the reg
ular and State troops. which SO fast dis
appeared during the Spanish War.
encampment must prove OF the highest
value. ard I am sure that the provisional
regiment which will represent Missouri on
that occasion will conduct itself In a man
ner to reflect the highest credit to the
State
The following is the general order pro-
mulgated by Colonel Sinclair in regard to
the Forthcoming encampment.

Three companies. with an aggregate strength
of 200 officers and men. will attend the maneu-

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPtBlsiC SPECIAL.
Pittsburg. Pa. Aug. 1.-THE story which
appeared In the current issue of the New
York Sporting Life. and which had its origin
In Philadelphia, TO the effect that there
was dissatisfaction in the ranks of the ST.
Louis club. and that certain members OF the
team were dissatisfied with the management
Of Patsy Donovan. has aroused the ire Of
the st. Louis players. particularly those Of
them who were said to be the archconspir-
ators
Among those mentioned in the article as
being bitterly opposed to Donovan were
the ONeil brothers. Brain and Barclay.
Mike o'Neil is in Philadelphia. sick. but
his brother Jack spoke for him tonight. as
well as for the other members who had
been accused.
You can state in the strongest Ian
guage," said o'Neii. that there is NOT II
word Of truth in this statement. 1t Is a
malicious lie. which was evidently started
py the enemies of the players and at a time
when they should be ashamed to start such
fabrications. as Captain Donovan Is i'll at
his home in Lawrence. Mass, ana, OF
course. cannot deny them.
There never was more harmony in a ball
team than there is at present nong the St.
Louis players. We are working in the ut
most unison. although playing in rather
hard luck
Captain Donovan commands the respect
and admiration of every man on the team,
and We would do anything in the world for
him."
Stanley Robson concurred in everything
that O'Neil said.
Robson stated that Donovan had typhoid
malaria, and that he would probably not
play again this season.
There was no game to-day. on account of
rain. and double-header is scheduled for
tomorrow.
Mike ONeil is expected to Join the team
on Saturday. but will not pitch for several
days. owing to his weakened condition.
