TROOPS WILL CAMP
| At FAIR GROUNDS
Governor Stuart Wires
General Sale Approx
ing Order.
IN CAMP JULY 2l TO 80
Richmond Expects to Give Free Use
of Grounds-Will Bring Three
Thousand Men to City.

Richmond, June 13-Virginia troop
will camp for ten days, beginning
on July 81, at the State Fair Grounds
just beyond the corporation limits OF
this city. The plans for the summer
encampment, as formulated by Al
iutant- General w. w. Sale, met wlrz
{ the approval Of Governor Henry G.
Stuart, and were ratified by him last
night in a telegram from his home
at Elk Garden, Russell County.
The site selected for the encan1p-
ment is believed to be the most avail
able one in the State, and, while it
will be rather small for the purpose,
the water and sewerage facilities will
be ample and in addition the state
will save considerable sum in trans
portation of troops and camp equl-
pape. The most satisfactory point
about the selection is the positive
naming of the place OF concentration,
and the definite fixing of the date
both of which, by frequent changes,
have caused inconvenience aHs con-
fusion to the personnel Of the mllita
in arranging for the Necessary time
off from work.
General Sale last night stated that
every branch of the State service
would be represented in the encamp-
.mert. aart that no organization would
be excused. Should this plan be car
ried out. there will be more than 1900
men brought here for the ten days.
The militia will be augmented by re-
gulars from Fort Meyer.

Washington, June l3.-That the
new provisional President of Mexico,
who is to be aided by the South Amer
lean United States combination to
bring order out Of chaos, will be Sc
lected almost Immediately was be-
lieved certain here today.
The substantial progress already
made at Niagara Falls has eIcGuraged
the belief that by the middle of next
week Huerta will be out and the task
of restoring order begun.
The Administration is absolutely
confident Carranza will agree to the
tentative plan backed by this Govern
ment, and that fighting will end as
soon as Huerta has formally turned
over the Presidential authority to the
provisional government that is to be
named by the mediators and the COM
missioners now in Canada.
While it is admitted that some un-
expected development, or fit. of Stub
bornness on the part of Carranza
might disrupt the program, this Gov
enment is extremely hopeful nothing
of the kind will take place.
It is claimed that all Mexicans, even
those of the Villa type, are tired OF
the constant strife. The country is
said to be ripe for peace, and is ex-
sneeted to frown oi, any leader who
puts Obstacles in the way of restoring
order.

DEUTHER HANDS A LITTLE JoI
D TO HARRISON

" FlNINNlSSN
Carter H. Harrison, mayor of our
beautiful but dirty city, was handed
few sharp words last night by Tomaz
f. Deuther, secretary of the Greater
Chicago Federation.
Deuther does not go so far in the
use of plain, simple language as to
say that Carter Harrison is a liar.
But if a man who deliberately speaks
a thing which he knows is not true,
then Harrison, according to Deuther,
is liar.
Deuther quotes Harrison's state
ment in a signed article in the Sun
day Examiner 1t said: THE traction
corporations are the only interests
in the city that are fighting compre-
hensive subway. Other names are
employed, but the methods make OBJ
yious the source and inspiration of
the opposition ..s
Along with this the Hearst papers
have been running statements that
Mayor Harrison charges the Greater
Chicago Federation with. being
financed by the street railways, which
are against comprehensive subway.
Deuther takes Harrison's quoted
Statement and bring an Impeachment
against the mayor in these words:
Mayor Harrison knew when he
said that he deliberately said what
he knew was not so"
Deuther throws open the books of
the federation and shows where every
dollar paid for billboard posting and
other expense money of the anti-sub-
way campaign comes from. The Cook
