GEN. GRANTS PLAN SUCCESSFUL
Troops Travelling BY Rail and Over
land Reach Camp Same Day.

Waterfowl, n. Y, June 14.-~The
plan Of General Frederick D. Grant,
commanding the joint army of Regu-
lars and militia in the maneuvers at
the oncampment at Pine Plains, that
the regular troops coming by rail and
overland marches should reach the
camp the same day, has proved emil
nently successful. The marching troops
all arrived by noon Saturday and the
last train bearing the two batteries of
TIE 81 Field Artillery from Fort
Myer, Va. reached here at 43O o'clock
that afternoon.
With the arrival of the 5000 United
States troops by foot and rail yester-
day, and the arrival of the National
Guard organizations today White
Plains, the scene of the army and mi
litia inaneuvers for the Department of
the Feast under General Frederick
Dent Grant, commanding, presented a
warlike spectacle.
1t is estimated there will be at least
5000 troops at the camp at all times
and about 10000 during the encamp-
ment. The regulars will remain
throughout the cncampment, and the
militia will take part in three relays
of 10 days each.
During the encampment the troops
will be kept busy with day and night
maneuvers, solving various problems
of defence and attack, outpost duty
and other activities, such as would en-
gage troops in the field of war. On the
hikes and drills the militiamen and
regulars will be mixed, each company
consisting Of members Of both organ
izations. Night maneuvers and
bivouac are scheduled for the nights
of June 16 and II and 80 and on July
l, and s. On these days the troops
will leave camp and "hike" to their
respective terrain, where they will
pitch their dog tents and await or
ders. A feature of the encampment will
be the test of the utility of the auto
mobile in time of war, two cars be-
ing at camp for that purpose.
Today all was hustle at the camp
preparatory to the real work which is
to begin tomorrow morning. From an
early hour until 8 o'clock tonight
trains arrived at the camp at frequent
intervals with National Guardsmen,
chiefly from New England.
