Blow for National Guard.
Adjutant General A. S. Brookes
made the disappointing announcement
today that instead of $65,S00 he had
estimated it would take for the Ma
tional Guard to go into encampment
with the regulars and other National
Guard organizations at Atascaderos
California, this fall, and which he had
o11-@ thn oy,t1 MI
allowed only 100000, because of the
small appropriation made by Congress
in it's efforts to economize. Adjutant
General Brookes kept the wires hot
to Washington and at the same time
sought to get concessions from the
ra;lroad companies, but to no avail
and in consequence some of the Ma
tiCnal Guard members must stay al
home. Only two battalions of foul
companies of forty men each, and the
battery of artillery will be taken. II
otGer to be fair, the five companies
which made the best showing at the
recent inspection by U. S. arm!
officer, will be given a quota of fort.
1aen each, while the remaining si1
companies will be given twenty mel
each who will be organized into three
forty men companies. From Santa F.
Captain Adolfo Hills company will
take forty men and Company F, TWEEN
ty men. Adjutant General Brookes, o
course, regrets, that the entire organi
zation can not be taken this year.
