BRIGADE OF CAVALRY
MAY REMAIN A WEEK
Ellipse South of White House Pos
sible Place for Pitching
Their Tents.

The beautiful green sward Of the ellipse
south of the White House probably may
be converted into a white-tented city ear
ly next month, when the three thousand
troopers who have been engaged in mimic
war games for more than two months
past on the historic fields Of the Shenan-
doah come to the National Capital to be
reviewed by the President and Secretary
OF War. Secretary Garrison expects to
make an official visit to the Winchester
camp tomorrow. and 1t is likely that final
arrangements for the visit to Washington
then will be arranged.
Unless an earller date is made neces-
sary by cold or inciement weather, the
cavalry brigade will break camp at Win
chester October and start on its long
march to Washington on that day. The
troopers are equipped only for temperate
weather and a spell Of cold weather may
necessitate an earlier movement than Is
now contemplated.
Although the whole brigade, consisting
of the 10th, 11th and 18th regiments of
cavalry, will march the entire distance
to this city, four troops will be delayed
two or three days in arrival. That is be-
cause two of the troops will stop at Fair
fax. Va, for two days, and two other
troops will make similar stay at Fred
ericksburg, Va.
The entire brigade probably will remain
In this city about week. II 1t is found
undesirable to have the soldiers pitch
their tents on the White House ellipse.
they will go into camp either on the
reservation at Fort Myer or at the
Washington barracks.

This controversy concerns the same
shares of stock as form the basis of the
dissolution suit filed by the District Of
Columbia against the Washington Gas
Light Company. The ownership Of these
shares is alleged as a violation of the

to the ruling Of the chairman of the

ton Of the commission Is concerned,

fused to accept the compensation law.
Adjustments of compensation for
death or injuries go to commissioners,

sional district. The minimum compen-
sation for injuries is So q week and the
maximum $40. Dependency is taken
care of, and compensation for disabili-
ties is based on tables of liability
