be expected before Governor Mann's re-
turn from Milwaukee. where he goes
tonight. Late last night the Governor
had not made up his mind what action
he would take, and said that he could
not do SO prior to his departure.
When the papers in the case were
presented TO him the Executive stated
that he would examine all the records
which would tend to throw light in
any way on the origin and development
of the factional difficulties which have
beset the Blues Battalion. To this
end he called for the papers in the trial
last spring of Captain Mcdowell for u
breach of military discipline. which
resulted in acquittal. He has also eX-
amined the records of the court of in.
quiry which examined into the Haw-
kins case two years ago.
Has Not Decided.
Altogether this made great mass
OF material which the Governor has
endeavored to assimilate. He has a
good many other matters to attend to
nnd has besides been beset with callers
during the past week. The result is
that he has been unable to make up his
mind as to whether or not he will or
der the board of examiners.
While no intimation has come from
the Governor or the Adjutant- General
as to the course which will be pur
sued, the consideration which is being
given to the matter is taken among
