HOLDS STATE TROOPS
UNTIL WELL EQUIPPED
War Department Issues Orders De-
laying Dispath Of $4,000 Men
to the Border.

The War Department has sent or
ders to all department commanders
to delay transportation to the border
til they are thoroughly equipped. The
order affects about $4,000 men still held
in the mobilization camps.
The latest information Of the depart
ment is that about 100000 national
guardsmen now are at the border.
With the $4,000 regulars there and
5000 additional men called from the
reserves, officials estimate that the
American strength on border service
within a few weeks will be adequate
to cope with any present emergency
and will make unnecessary the dis
patch of any more guardsmen until
they are completely equipped and or
ganized.
Published stories that use Of gen
eral draft was being considered to NIL
the National Guard ranks are denied
by the department. The following
statement was issued by the official
press bureau:
10 Draft System Contemplated.
Tho statement that the war De-
partment Is contemplating the draf,
system to recruit the National Guard
is nonsense. Statements to that effect
are purely speculative and have nc
basis in fact"
Reports that National Guard units
are being supplied poor and insufficient
food are not borne out in preliminary
telegraphic reports received from al
| the department commanders These re.
| ports uniformly declare that there has
been no food shortage among the
guardsmen, and that all have been sup.
piled normal army rations of good
quality. Detailed reports are being
