by the act OF congress authorizing the
issuance of the war risk insurance.
Colonel Mckinley returned from

he was in a conference with officers

worry among cavalry officers of the
Eighty eighth division Of the national
army at Camp Dodge And especially
those attached 10 the Three Hundred

companies and a Wagon company.

part Of the One Hundred Sixty-third
artillery brigade and settles much
mooted question among staff officers
as to the actual status Of the train.

also makes the sanitary train and part
of the medical corps, and the supply
train q part OF the guartermasters'
COPS.
TO all these trains and especially
the ammunition train, many Of the Of
( ficers commissioned in the cavalry
from TT. Smelling training school last
August have been assigned.
