FATAL ACCIDENT.
Mexican Veteran Found Dead on Flag
cling at Soldiers Home.

Reuben Chichester. a veteran of the Mex
lean war. fell from a window at the Sol
diers Home some time last night and was
found dead early this morning on the flag
ging beneath the window. Chichester was
located on the second floor In the Scott
building at the home. He had been indis
posed for several days and 1t is thought
he became warm during the night, went to
the window to get some fresh air and lost
his balance and fell out. The body was cold
when found shortly after o'clock this
morning. and it thought that death occurred
several hours previously.
Acting Coroner hewitt, who was Informed
Of the matter, directed the physician at the
home to give certificate of accidental
death, which was done. Chichester was
seventy-four years of age, and had been
an inmate of the home for two years. His
home was at Elgin. ILL.,. and relatives at
that place were notified of his death.
The funeral will take place Monday and
interment will be made with military hon
ors In the Soldiers Home cemetery.

the published reports of the dolngs at
Maneuver Camp No. 3. so it is said Al
most everybody who is at all familiar with
the life of the officers of the United States
army is cognizant of the fact that the gov
eminent provides absolutely nothing in the
wav of a mess fund for the officers; that
they have to pay, and usually pay high'
for everything that appears on their am
ner tables, and that it is Impossible under
existing laws, and under the particular
act of the last Congress maklhs appio-
priations for these maneuvers, for any
officer to expend a cent OF the govern
meut's money for the entertainment Oh
guests of any kind whatsoever. There mas
been a sum allotted from the appropria-
ton for these exercises for the entertain
ment of the foreign military attaches and
the governors of states who might visit
the camp, and it might be thoroughly un-
derstood now that the allotment That mas
been made is too small for the purpose, and
that the officers of the corps headquarters
mess will be compelled to go down in their
own pockets to supply the dehclency
Every officer who eats his meals with Gen.
Corbn'S mess pays from his salary for
everything he eats. None of them has an
allowance of any kind whatever from any
funds in the treasury of the United states

Corbin entertains personal guests each
evening and the names of these guests

out his check for the full amount of his

INTERVENING PETITION.
Claim of Mary Nora Relihan Against
Thomas E. Waggaman.

In the equity proceedings pending against
Thomas E. Waggaman for the appointment
of a receiver for the list of securities held
by Waggaman and known as list No. L,
another intervening petition was filed late
Yesterday afternoon by Attorney Belva A.
Lockwood.
The petitioner Mary Nora Relihan, de-
clares that some years ago she loaned
Thomas E. Waggaman LOO, for which he
was to pay per cent interest.
The money. she AYERS. was loaned to one
c. NJ. Coughln on a note secured on real
estate, upon which interest was to be paid
quarterly. To expedite the collection of the
interest the petitioner says she left the
note in Mr.. Waggamans possession.
About June Il. 1903, the note was paid,
and she claims that without her knowledge
and consent Mr.. Waggaman reinvested the
money In note of NJ. F. Riley which pur-
ported to be secured on the now celebrated
list No. L.
The petition prays for the appointment
or a receiver and for other relief asked for
by the suit Of NJ. Agnes Gardiner and
others against Waggaman. in which At

lief for the destruction done. Forms of
agreements have been prepared. and 1t Will
devolve upon the officers experimenting
their making to secure the signatures OF
the compliments and claimants. Up to
date the only depreciation reported has been
the loss of two chickens which man liy-
ing near one of the camps brought to the
attention of the officers yesterday, and
there is serious doubt in the minds of those
fe miliar with this particular claimant as
to the justice of the claim.
The chief umpire has completed his round
of visits to the two division camps and has
instructed all of his assistants as to just
what they will be required to do? Meet
ingS of the umpires in each division were
called as stated in The Star and the chief
umpire made a short address to them ex-
planning in detail the work they Will have
to do and the conditions for the maneuvers
decided upon at the meeting of the gen.
eral officers Thursday.
Expected Arrival of Militia.
Today and tomorrow are expected to be
the busiest days of the camp. Twenty
thousand militia troops are due to arrive
during the forty-eight hours of these two
days and the work of detraining and camp
ing them is a task which even the most
capable and experienced officers look ask
ance.
With the facilities that have been pro-
vided for the work It would that there
would be no trouble in getting the troops
from the tram ana INTO their camps, out
there are many possibilities for accidents,
breaks in the program. etc. which cannot
be foreseen and which will have to be met
as they come. With the coming of the
militia troops will end the hardest part of
the work that the commissary department
has been called upon to perform by reason
of the manuevers. The officers who are de-
tailed to provide subsistence for the troops
have experienced less difficulties than those
of any other staff departments. The hard
est task they had was to supply travel
ration to the militia troops, and this
made difficult because the chief commits
'sary did not learn until the very last min
ute Just what amount of the travel ration
should be issued tc each organization.
In the act providing for the reorganiza-
ton of the militia it was provided that the

thought that officers going into the field
might not carry with them their blue or
dress uniforms. and IT was thought by those
in charge Of the arrangements that 1t would
not be paying the proper respect to the
guests Of the government, the foreign mil
itary attaches and the governors Of the
states to appear at dinner in the evening
In any other attire. especially in the dirty.
dusty clothing that was worn in the field.
Three Kinds of Uniform.
Every one who is familiar with army
nomenclature knows that there are three
distinct kinds Of uniform worn by the
ofiicers and enlisted men-the service, the
dress and the full dress. These are pre-
scrfbei in the uniform regulations. The
FIRST Is the olive drab. or khaki; the second
is the blue blouse. cap and trousers, which
were formerly known as fatigue uni
form. and the third Is the full dress proper.
with all its glory of shoulder knots and
gold lace for the officers and highly color
ed cloth trimmings for the men. The uni
form prescribed for the generals mess is
the old fatigue. or the dress" as II is
now called. The order related only to army
and militia officers as has been explained
and so far is It from being formal even
ing dinner costume that 1t has been pre-
scribed as the uniform the officers with the
blue army will wear in the field during the
maneuverS.
The time prescribed for the evening meal
at corps Headquarters, o'clock, was set
because by that time all the late trains
from Washington, Manassas and Thorough
fare have arrived. and not before, and
guests from these places will have no more
time than the law allows for getting TO
camp by the time dinner Is served Civil
ian guests are not supposed to bring formal
dinner dress into camp with them, and dur
ing the six days this camp has been estab-
lished there has been only one man to ap-
pear In evening clothes, and he did not full
ly understand the order. Numerous civil
ians have been entertained by Gen Cor5in
during the week. and several Of them are
here for the entire encampment, yet none
Of them but the one mentioned has vet
appeared at dinner in evening costume.
Gen. Corbin did not consider II proper for
him to express an opinion in the premises
but he did say that Representative Iiy.
