An appeal to the patriotism of
South Carolinians was issued by w.
w. Moore, adjutant general. for funds
with which to erect a commodious
hall on the encampment grounds at
Styx for the comfort and welfare of
the enlisted men and officers. 1t is
estimated that the assembly hall,
which would be a permanent adjunct
OF the camp, would cost $3.50. Con-
tributions to the fund will be received
In the office OF the adjutant general.
There is not a sufficient amount of
state and federal funds available for
such worthy purpose" said Gen.
Moore, "and 1t is my hope and desire
that people from all sections off the
state will send contributions to me at
once SO that the building can be put
in use early.

Iegula ions OF army service, should

National Guard short period Of re-

For three years have urged upon
the legislature the need Of such q

EUROPEAN POWERS SEEK TO
PREVENT WAR WITH MEXICO
Exert Pressure Upon Carranza As He
Considers American Note.


Washington.-Whi General Car
rama and his cabinet had under con-
sideration the American rejection OF
the demand for the recall OF General
Pershing's troops from Mexico. Euro.
pean diplomats were exerting press
ure upon the first chief to prevent
him from going to war with the Uni.
ted States. according to advices reach
ing here from Mexico City.
Allied diplomatic representatives
in Mexico believe too that German
influence has been working on Car
rama in an effort to create situation
that might embarrass the enemies
OF the Central Powers. They have
asserted that German agencies have
been active In stirring up feeling
against the United States not only in
Mexico, but throughout South and Cen
trail America, to prevent this country
from securing trade formerly con-
trolled by German merchants.
II Is understood that the diplomats
have pointed out to General Carranza
that the American note only declines
to consider Immediately any sugges-
ton that is troops be withdrawn from
Mexico and that 1t quotes portion

Scott and General Obregon, providing

General Pershing's message stated
that seven survivors In all, have reach

men, but the report did not say
whether there were non-commissioned
officers among them.
According to the stories of the sur

cans made a charge from the flank OF
the American troops at the conclu
sion Of a parley between Capt. Boyd
and General Gomez at the same time

Col. Edgeworth Montague Blythe,
commander of the First South Caro-

order to superintend the work Of prep

II anticipate no trouble in recruit.

said Col. Blythe. There will be re.
cruiting officers in each station after
the troops leave and these, with the
assistance of medical examiners, will
take care OF all those who desire to
enlist after the regiments are encamp-
ed at Styx. Before being mustered
into service Of the United States the
men will stand a second physical ex.
animation by medical officers of the
regular army.
The tendency has been to localize
the enlistment Of troops. It should
be clearly understood that any person
In the state can enlist in any com.
pany.
II am glad to see the liberality with
which employers are releasing their
men for service IN the militia. AS
long as the employers are themselves
not serving 1t seems to me that their
Willingness to assist the government
should extend to taking care OF their
employees who are willing to serve
their country in active service.
"As soon as the companies are en-.

upon the existing circumstances at
Styx. II there is a great deal Of pre-
