CAMP WITH REGULARS
DISTRICT NATIONAL GUARD MAY
GO TO MOUNT GRETNA.

Brig Gen. Harries, commanding the Dis
trict of Columbia Militia, has recommended
to the War Department that provision be
made to enable the entire National Guard
OF the District to take part in the joint
encampment of regulars and militia to be
held at Mount Gretna, near Harrisburg
Pa, In August next Gen. Harries suggests
twelve days from August l a suitable
period for the encampment of the District
troops. and estimates the total expense OF
the und ertakng at $4,000 including pay,
transportation and subsistence.
1t is stated at the War Department that
no action will be taken in the matter until
the return to the city next Friday OF AS
sistant Secretary Oliver, who is in direct
charge of the arrangements for the proposed
big concentration camps in different parts
of the country. In view Of the limited ap-
preparation and the fact that the states of
Maryland and Virginia will each be allotted
provision for but one regiment of infantry
1t Is not regarded as likely that the War
Department will be able to grant the Dis
trict of Columbia a larger quota.
1t is understood that the National Guard
of the District Of Columbia will establish
an independent camp this summer. here
tofore unless the entire brigade Is permit
ted to go into camp with the regulars at
Mount Gretna.
