The Governor carefully examined the
papers in the case. including all mat
ters which might be said to have any
bearing on the differences which are
SAID TO have existed Tor some time in
Company A. His conclusion is sup
posedly based on the conviction that
the matters complained of did not
make board of examination desirable
or necessary.
Outlook Is Better.
1t is understood that matters in
Company A are in better condition
than heretofore, and that general peace
and harmony prevails among the OFF,
GERS of the battalion. The action OF
the Governor in declining to order the
board. which was announced a day or
two ago, is taken in good part by
those who had connection with the
c -urt of inquiry, and there seems TO
be a general disposition at the Blues
Armorv to get together on basis of
mutual understanding and to work for
the good of the service.
The papers have been in the hands
of the executive since August %. They
went as far back as 1908. when a
