Based on Hypothetical Case.
"Thc letter of Solicitor General Hoyt was

Battalion in any event, but particularly
not at this time. while the matter is before
the courts.
II was learned today that the opinion OF
Acting Attorney General Hoyt was. upon
its receipt by the President, referred to the
law officers of the War and Navy depart
ments. but that as yet they have not rem
dercd any decision as to its merits.
1t was stated this afternoon that an in
spection OF the Naval Battalion was held
before the disarmament was ordered ana
that this will be shown when the matter
comes up IN the court for a hearing. Also
that the disarmament was the result OF
such inspection, which was made accord
ing TO the local militia law.
Repeatedly Recommended.
1t was further said that the board OF
Inspecting officers which conducts the an

years past the existence of a state of pal
