HoGS-Wlth the possible exception of q
few early sales the market was a 100 lower

at l0c reduction after tho packers got
going.
Despite the fact that prices were sharply
lower, the earlier part Of tho market was
fairly active. Similar declines were being
enforced a. other points and sellers fearing

outside the fact that late rounds were a
little slow, however. there was not much
change in the market Tendency was
weaker and values light and have been

they could still use few hogs and eventu-
ally practically everything was cleaned up
without prices suffering to any great ex-
tent There are a few grassy hogs show

these kinds several odd punches Of green

Whether the little force OF the Tenth

Charles T. Boyd fought their way

Mexican troops. which had almost
surrounded them ut Carriznl June 81
still was unknown at General Fun

No news from General Pershinz
has been received since the arrival
late last night of the report based on
the storios Of several straEglers, who
made their way back to the maln
column before the nght!ng at CarrI-
EaI had ended.
Fears that tho casualties suffered
by General Boyd's command had
been very heavy were expressed ny
army officers here. II was pointed
out that II twelve mon had been
killed, as reported through Mexican
sources, Il would mean that from
thirty-tive to forty had beCn wound
ed. according to tho usual proper
ton.
These with the number reported
from chihuahua to have been cap
tursd would account for practically
one troop or nifty per cent Of tho
command. Indeed from the reports
available 80 far Il Ii by no meanB
certain that Captain Boyd's COM
mand was not practically wiped out.

Rigorous Program Staged at

ed order. battle formation. will be
emphasized in preparing West Vir-
ginla's soldiers for service In Mexico.
In camp Thursday at Kanuwha City
the troops were put through Ave
hours of work In the drill field. and
this formation was everywhere In ev-
idence. Colonel C. f. Morrison. COM
manding. went into the Geld himself
and gave both officers and men ad-
vantage OF his knowledge Of military
tactics acquired during the last TWEEN
ty years of experience. including that
as commander Of Company r. Of
ParkersburE during the Spanish
American war.
Mai. William Wallace, U. s. A., In
spector-inRtructor Of the state troops,
took up his quarters in camp today,
and together with Colonel Morrison,
will supervise the work OF prepara-
ton in view of giving the soldiers as
nearly one year Of experience in thir-
ty days as is physically possible. II
will be several days before the rigid
test by the former is given prepara-
tory to mastering the regiment into
the federal service. This test will be
made on the basis Of sixty-hve men
to each OF the twelve companies. In
camp and answering roll call today
were 100 men. Ten more arrived to-
day and twenty-five are to report to-
morrow. all having been out Of
bounds when the call was made for
mobilization.
In view Of the fact that \ rigorous
program was carried out on the first
day of drill. the hospital corps. which
is considered one OF the most efficient
units In the organization Of the West
Virginia military. was prepared to
care for any number OF sun victims,
but the lrst sick call was responded
to only by a soldier who had permit
ted a horse to step on his foot. The
fact that there was no sickness indi-
Gates to the officers that the men are
In good trim as a whole.
To bring the regiment to the neces-
sary strength II Is not believed neceS-
sRry for a call to be made for voIun-
teers, as each company commander is
receiving applications from men who
wish TO get into service. In nearly
every instance these will be accepted
for a great many more OF the exper-
fenced soldiers are not expected to be
able TO pass the examination nee~S-
sary before mastering into the 80
eminent service.
No name has been formally i'aii-
Gated TO the camp which is recogri ss,i
