MAY GO TO MEXICAN
BORDER TO TRAIN
Rumor Concerns Provisional
Troops of Cavalry In Fed
eraI Camps.
ARMY OFFICIALS FAVOR 1T

Provisional troops of cavalry now
being trained in the sixteen camps
for reserve officers throughout the
country may be sent to the Mexican
border for training.
This news spread about the Fl. Myer
camp today and aroused the enthusiasm
of the troop which is receiving instruc-
tions under Capt. Sidney Haight Of the
regular army. AS this troop has been
without horses except on Saturdays. 1t
has been the object of good-natured
railery at the camp and has really
been receiving most of its course OF
training as dismounted cavalry.
According to present advices things
are not as quiet and peaceful along the
border as the War Department authori-
ties could wish. There are in the
United States seventeen regiments OF
regular cavalry. and there are eight
more regiments to be raised from
the training camps for reserve officers
It is said to be seriously considered by
the army authorities that these troops
from the training camps should be sent
to the border for their mounted train
ing. where they can be students and
perform guard duty at the same time.
Such a move would also bring then
nearer to the big remount stations
where they could be equipped with
horses.
