Indignant at the treatment she re-

and buggy were stolen, Miss A. ]. Del
aplane, 81 Sixteenth street northwest.
went to police headquarters last night
where she went on record in registering
her protest against the failure of the
two policemen to recover her property
When I came out Of the market

my team being driven north on Eighth
street by colored boy. I ran to Penn
sylvania avenue and appealed to a po-
nceman standing in the middle of the
street waiting for a car. l pointed out
to him my stolen horse and buggy, then
near the corner OF Eighth and D streets
This policeman told me he was busy
and had to get to the station house and
Tor me to report the case to the First

DEPARTMENT JUGGLES
GUARDS BORDER HOPES
Rumors of Departure Not Substanti-
ated by Orders

What will be done with the District
National Guard Is as much in doubt as
ever.
No definite assurances from really au-
thoritative sources can be gotten regard
ing either the sending Of the troops to
the border or their muster out The on
GERS and men do not know what will be
done with them, and 1t is believed that
the high officials at the War Depart
ment have not decided upon what dispo-
sition will be made Of the troops
Camp Ordway was stirred yesterday by
the order mastering out the 1900 troops
which were returned to mobilization
camps from the border when the strike
threatened.
The otrder was at first reported as in
Guiding the District troops. This caused
a commotion. Many of the men greeted
the order with rejoicing, though a few
were disappointed in the thought that
they would not have the trip to the
border
Brig. Gen. William E Harvey got in
touch with the War Department and was
assured that the orders issued when the
troops were first modified, still were eff
fective. This is taken by officers to mean
that the troops will be moved to the
border eventually, but these are the same
and only orders that the troops have been
working under since the first days of
mobilization. They are that the troops
be reported when up to minimum strength
and fully equipped, without animals

BAKER MUSTERS OUT
$4,000 MILTTIAMEN
War Secretary Takes First Step
Toward Generalization.

The first step toward gradual with
drawal and mastering out of all militia
troops on the Mexican border was taken
ordered all militiamen so far returned
from the border mustered out. All of
the 1900 men recalled when the strike
threatened. excepting the Fourteenth
New York Infantry. which will be held
in the United States service until a
threatened typhoid epidemic In its ranks
is past, will be returned to State service
and demobilized.
The War Department also announced
the Immediate withdrawal and mastering
out of militia units composed of college
students exclusively.
This action was originally planned for
September l, but was postponed.
District Men Not Affected.
Neither of these two orders AFFECT the
District National Guard, either at Camp
Ordway or on the border.
The regiments affected are: Second,
Fourteenth and Seventy-hrst New York
Infantry; First and Fourth New Jersey
Infantry; Fourth Maryland Infantry;
First and Second Illinois Infantry; First
and Third Missouri Infantry; Fifth Cali
fornIa Infantry; Third Oregon Infantry
Second Washington Infantry, and First
Louisiana Infantry.
There will be no hasty withdrawal of
the 106, 900 officers and men on the border,
War Department officials made plain
yesterday. The date Of the muster out
of the last units is still remote. they say.

VIOLATORS OF S-HOUR
LAW TO BE CURBED
Department of Justice Prepares
Amendments, Following Threat.

The Department of Justice has pre-
pared amendments to the eight-hour law
which will provide drastic punishment
for persons or railroads who disobey
that statute This fact became known
yesterday, wheH President RIpley's re-
ported statement that the Santa Fe
would ignore the law, was called to the
attention of Department officials.
The plan is to ask Congress in Decem-
Der to adopt these amendments before
the emergency measure passed last week
goes into effect. AS the eight-hour day
on the railroads does not become effec-
tive until January /, there will be plenty
Of time then to forestall the threats OF
President Ripley.
The proposed amendments were in
tended originally to be incorporated in
the measure that was hurriedly passed to
prevent a strike. They were omitted
from fear that an attempt to have them
adopted at that ime would arouse toe
much controversy, and defeat the pur-
pose Of the administration.
Members of the Interstate Commerce
Committee OF the Senate, do not take
President Ripley's reported determina-
ton seriously They argue that II the
railroads fight the law they will be de-
barred from claiming the increase in
freight rates which has virtually beer
promised them.
Il don't believe the railroads general.
ly will follow the intention OF the Santa
Fe." said Senator Cummins, of Iowa
The penalty will be too great"
Senator Sherman. on the other hand
maintains that the law is unconstitu-
tional and that If the railroads fight II
they will win.
