WALLA WALLA is TO THAT
EFFECT.
Claimed That September IL Is the
Date Set for the Sailing From
San Francisco.

Is the Fourth Cavalry to be sent to
the Philippine islands during the
present year is the question that is
giving the officers and enlisted men at
Fort Walla Walla much thought for
discussion.
A rumor has been in circulation on
the parade grounds and in the quar-
tiers at the garrison for several days
that the Fourth was scheduled for an
other two years term in the islands.
1t is claimed that the information came
to the fort in a letter from an officer
in tine east who intimated that the
schedule had been prepared by the war
department and in the list for foreign
service was the Fourth Cavalry. The
date, it was claimed, was September
IL.
The officers at the garrison disclaim
any official knowledge of the subject,
but some of them are Of the opinion
that it is possible there may be some
foundation for the rumor. The fact
that the Fourth was transferred from
Fort Riley to Walla Walla lends color
to the rumor. they say. 1t has been
the policy of the general staff for some
time to send the troops destined for
service in the Philippines to the posts
in the west a short time before the
actual order for the embarking on
TRANSPORTS is made.
