interesting Details Regarding Obser
vations at San Antonio.

The report of Major George Mel,
Presson. I'd Maine Infantry. now on
file at the office of Adjutant General
Din, contains some interesting details
regarding that officers tour of duty at
San Antonio. Major PressOn states
that in his opinion the tour has been
of inestimabe value to the organized
militia officers of the country. The Y
have been able to come in contact with
army methods and it is only natural
that much has been acquired that will
,lICve Of great benefit. The coming in
contact with the officers from the
guards of other states has resulted, in
an interchange of ideas that has been
of value. The troubles and tribula-
lions of each are much the same. ana
the various eXpedients adopted have
been found in some instances to be APP
pIicable t. conditions that exist in
their own organizations
Major PresSon emphasizes the uni
formly courteous and hospi able treat
ment that was accorded him by the
officers and men of the regular army
On this point he says: There was no
question too trivial nor any subject too
complex but that the officers with
whom l came in contact would devote
themselves and with evident pleasure
to providing me with the information
desired. This uniformly Kind treat
ment not only added materially to the
pleasure of my tour of duty, but also
made it, | am confident, one that has
literally increased my education in
military matters"
He quotes Major Norman. the division
quartermaster as of the opinion that
the militia officers should have been
ordered in at the very beginning of
the maneuVers SO that they might
have had the opportunity of observing
the regular army method of handling
the large amount of material. equip

gage only operates as pledge or equi-
able assignment, and the title to them
does not become absolute in the mort
gagee by statutory foreclosure of
the mortgage. He is not required by
the law to collect them and is ac-
countahle only for what he actually
receives on them so long as he does
not acquire an absolute title.
4. A mortgage is not required by
the law to pay off prior mortgages. or
existing liens. nor to perform condi
tions necessary to secure or perfect the
title to any of the mortgaged property,
even though the property is lost
through the omission to do so.
8. When a mortgage secures sew
eral debts due from the mortgagor to
the mortgage, and the mortgaged
property is not sufficient to pay all the
debts, the mortgage upon foreclosure
may elect to which of the debts the
property shall be applied.
s. In such case the bringing suit

apply the mortgaged property to the
other debts, those not put in suit.
Z. Where some of the debts secured
by mortgage are also secured by
sureties, the latter cannot require the
application of the mortgaged property
to such debts in preference to those
debts secured only by the mortgage

cured by mortgage cannot require
the creditor to foreclose the mortgage
upon condition broken, nor, to follow
up the foreclosure If begun. The
creditor may without their consent al
low the debtor more than the statutory
time for redemption after foreclosure
is begun; and in such case he will be
held to account only for the value of
the property at the end of the extended
time.
