1t is probable that the machine gun
company will go out in the field before
the arrival of the main body of troops
and act as an outlined enemy for the
main body of infantry TO search out
and engage. But this is. part of the
problem which was withheld. The ac
tual engagements, it is known. will not
begin until late this afternoon, when
all of the troops will be thrown upon
their own resources
The troops went through the post at
Fort Myer and took the Columbia turn
pike as far as Bailey's cross roads.
when they turned south on the Lees
burg pike At $50 o'clock this morr1-
ing they reached Bancroft station on
the Washington and Round Hill branch
of the Southern railway. 1t was esti
mated that they will reach their desti-
nation about / o'clock. when the shelter
tent camp which the troops will occupy
for two days will be pitched and lunch
con served.
Gen. Harvey and Capt. Horace P.
Hobbs. United States mastering officer,
left camp shortly after noon in an auto
mobile to join the troops and TO. witness

Gen. Harvey Confident.

Although the men and many officers
are doubtful of the prospects of
movement southwark, Gen. Harvey
was confident this morning that the
Sd Infantry. Battery A, Field Artillery,
and TrooR A. cavalry, will be sent
southwark in a short time. The fact
that troop movements are being made
despite the strike situation gives color
to the belief of some officers that the
District men soon will be on their way.
Not for many years have the District
troops been on march and field prob
lem such as they started this morning
They left in fine shape, accompanied by

The machine gun company left last
night to prepare the target butts at

range for practice. The machine gun
company will have pistol practice.
A big field problem has been mapped
out for the regiment by Col. Young,
but it will not be known until the bat
tie starts. The company officers and
eveI some of the staff officers were as
ignorant of the plans when they left

$4,000 MORE GUARDS
WILL GO TO THE BORDER
Troops of Ohio, Vermont and Ken
lucky Are Ordered to
Mexican Line.

About $4,000 men of Ohio, Vermont
and Kentucky National Guard regi-
ments. in mobilization camps, have been
coed to- the Mexican border. The de-
partment revoked suspension of an or
der for their movement issued two
weeks ago. All the regiments will join
Gen. Funston's command as rapidly as
transportation can be supplied. Some
units are on the move today.
There remain approximately $4,000
guardsmen, including the District
troops to Camp Ordway, Va, who are not
affected by the latest order. They also
were under orders for the border two
weeks ago, but the suspension. SO far.
has not been revoked for them.
Movement Delayed,
The original order for sending south
ward all troops called into the federal
service was issued by the War Depart
meat. in order that the divisional units
along the international line might be
filled up. and also that those regiments
which were not ready to go in the first
rush might share in the training as
soon as they could be fully equipped.
When the railway strike situation be-
came threatening. Gen. Funston recon-
mended that the whole movement be
held up, as the supply difficulty, in case
of a rail tie-up, would be complicated
by the addition of $4,000 men to his
command.
The department now has decided that
the strike situation may continue IN
changed for some time The officials
are anxious to complete the divisional
organization on the border in order that
full advantage may be taken of the OPP
portunity to train a large number of
men, 1t has also been concluded, it is
SAID, that the supply difficulty can be
met even in case of a strike
