GARRISON TO REORGANIZE.
Surrendered Charter Because of Trou-
BILE With HEADQUARTERS.

Past Inspector General Charles w.
Blush has decided to call meeting of
the former members of the Barry and
Roosevelt Garrison Of the Army and
Navy Union, which some time ago volun-
tarily surrendered it's charter because of
differences with the national headquar-
tiers, to take steps to reorganize the gar
rison. 1t is probable. that tie meeting
will be held next week.
The trouble with the national headquar-
tiers grew out of the election year or
so ago of j. Edwin Brown as national
commander. The local garrison volunta-
rily dissolved. Recently officers of the
former organization have been in cOmmu-
nication with Col. George Russell Downs
of Erie, Pa, the new national command
Ell, with a result that he has sanctioned
the movement to reorganize the garrison.

FOR TRANSFER PLAN
Commissioners Back Fight for
Universal System.
LETTER INDICATES FEELING
Mr.. Rudolph Commends Mr.. Darr
for Active Part He Is Taking
in Campaign.

That the District Commits sioners are
heartily in accord with the fight which
the Chamber OF Commerce and other or
ganiZa tons are making to compel the
street railways 10 give universal trans
ferS in, the District Of Columbia is indi-
Gated in a letter which Commissioner Ru-
dolph recently wrote to Charles W. Darr
OF the Chamber of Commerce, commend
ing him for refusing to go to Chicago as
a delegate to the convention on municipal
affairs because Mr.. Darr was needed
here in the transfer fight The Commits
sloners had designated Mr.. Darr as a
delegate to the convention. and he had
replied that he wished to stay in the
night here al present.
There can be no doubt but that the
commissioners are with us heart and
soul. said Mr.. Darr today. Mr.. Darr
indicated that the Commissioners were
! iukewarm as regards the fight for uni
versal transfers. and he wished to cor
rect this impression.
Mr.. Darr said that the mandamus suit
against the Capital Traction Companv to
compel that company to exchange trans
fers with the Baltimore and Washington
Transit Company and to set at rest once
for all the question whether Congress has
a right to compel one street railway COM
pany in the District to exchange trans
ferS with another would not be Instituted
by the attorneys for the Chamber of
Commerce until after the proceedings in
equity begun by the attorneys for the
Baltimore and Washington Transit Com
pany had been fought out TO the end. or
the transit company withdrew tie suit.
Not to Begin Suit at Once.
ITO begin another suit would compli-
cate matters at present. SAID Mr.. Darr.
when the present suit by the transit
company. is ended. then it is our plan, II
necessary, to bring the mandamus suit.
What we want to find out from the courts
is whether the present law will give US
any relief. If the law is shown to be in
effective. then We can go to Congress and
demand another with better grace"
Mr.. Darr sad that he was becoming
more and more convinced that the Bait
more and Washington Transit Company
had a good case In its present suit
against the Capitar Traction Company.
The decision to bring a mandamuS suit,
if in the future it proved advisable. was
reached at a conference between Mr..
Darr and Alfred F. Wood. the other at
torney designated by Chap.n Brown. gen.
eral counsel for the Chamber of Com
merce, to represent that organization In
the litigation for universal transfers.
The District Supreme Court Monday
| will hear r. Ross Perry's motion for a
! date to dispose of the suit which has been
| brought by the Baltimore and Washing
! ton Transit Company. represented by
Harry F. Lerch. against the Capital
| Traction Company, and the actual fight
