Can Not order Militia Out.

In contradiction of rumors that the
citizen soldiers of the United States
are to be called for active service, Of
ficers Of the army point out that such
action would be impossible because
there is no contingency, as prescribed
by law, which would warrant it. The
"Dick law" enacted eight years ago,
prescribes the constitutional causes au-
thorizing the president to call out the
militia. This act, carrying out the in
tent of the constitution, enables the
president to call to arms the militia
of the states, territories and District
of Columbia to "repel an invasion of
foreign nation, to suppress a rebel
lion in the United States, or to enable
him to execute the laws of the union. -
AS the country now faces none of the
emergencies, it is added, it would be
impossible for the president to call out
the militia.
The army division, which is assem-
bling at San Antonio, Texas, is officially
designated by the war department as
"the maneuver division.
