proceeded to plead his own case hy
saying: "Judge, these arrests are
coming so often they are growing]
monotonous. It appears to me that
I am looked upon as 'picking' for!

honor that yen can not come within

Washington, May 12.—The mob-
olizution at San Antonio shows thar
the regular troops are ready to
leave their garrisons equipped for
the field on very short notice.
The Tenth Infantry at «FV»rt Ben-
jamin, was aboard the train in 1H
hours after receiving its orders.
Where there was great delay In get-
ting aboard trains, it was due to
the inability of the railroads t,oj
supply transportation. The 17th in-1
fantry, from Kort McPherson, Ga.,
was in camp and under canvas at
San Antonio three and one-half days
after receiving its orders, and all
the troops sent to San Antonio were
under canvas at that place ten days
after orders were issued from the
war department.
All the regular army in the Unit-
ed States could have been mobollzed
in the same period.
As tho infantry, cavalry, and ar-
tillery reached San Antonio, they
were organized into brigades which,
together with the auxiliary troop*,
were combined into a division. Com-
manders had to be selected for the
division and brigades and they, in
turn had to select their staffs.
These organizations and staffs
were working together for the first
time as such. Tills should not be.

I decision* of the conference depends
the question aa to whether the tail-
ors shall secede from the United
Garment Workers of America, with
which organisation they are now
I affiliated, and form a national union1
of their own which shall be lode-
l*endent of the other garment-work-
ing craft*. Incidentally, according
to gossip that ha* gained wide cir-
culation, the conference may lead
[to a general strike of the tailors be-
[fore the close of the coming sum-
mer.
The differences between the tail-
ors and the United Garment Work-
ers are of long standing. The differ-
ences were accentuated by the strike
of the garment work®*-* In Chicago
last winter. It Is said that the
tailors of the country were almost
unanimously in favor of calling a
general strike, but the national
■council of the United Garment Work-
ers would not countenance such a
move. Tho dissatisfied tailors there-
upon proposed to

Brigades and divisions fdiould
a part of peace-time organization.
As thus organized, the division
was at about one-half war strength;
I that is, the organizations were at
peace strength. Approximately 10,-
men were needed to complete
the division. Had these men been
provided under our system, they
I would have been raw recruits, and
would have required many weeks
of training before being fit for cam-
paign.
I In foreign countries this incre-
ment of men is obtained from or-
ganized reserves which nr© abso-
lutely essential to insure a speedy
change from a peace to a war foot-
ing. This total lack of reserves is
the greatest weakness of our sys-
tem. illustrated by our mobolizatloh
in Texas. Should wo have to rnob-
■ollzo ,a large force, many weeks
] would elapse before our organiza-
tions cculd take the field at foil
strength. Public opinion probably
would not stand for tills delay. The
result would be organizations tak-
ing tho field at greatly reduced
strength or. If at Increased strength,
with large number of men poorly
| instructed in their duties and lit-
tle fitted to enduro the exposure of
campaign.
We can organize a reserve,in thiB
country if we make our enlistments
in the regular army and In thei
militia for ten years, two or three
years' service with the colors, and
the remaining seven or eight years I
absolutely free of Ail obligations
to come to the colors except in case
of war, free from riot duty, and
local state duty, and to come to [
! maneuvers every other year for a I
period of eight days. Now we are
losing 30,000 to 40,000 a. year from
the militia and regular army ecm-|
hired, about a third of each service I
being re-lnlistmenta.
If we give these men $1.50 a I
month or whatever congress might I
think wise, wo Should accumulate
280,000 men in eight years. These
men would be instructed men, who
have passed through (the 'regular
army or militia.
Thlt would give ns 280,000 men
who would stand right behind the
regular army approximately 100,000
men, with a militia of probablv 150,-
000 and that would give us some-
thing like 500,000 men immediately
available. The only obligation these
men would have. In addition to the
service obligation is to keep the
■adjutant general of the army and
the adjutant generals of the states

Three-I League in Coart Again.

H. J. RYIjANT, Prop.
Fpringfleld, HI., May 12.—Wheth-
er the tangle in the affairs of the
Three-1 league will be unravelled in
time for the organization to play
ball (his season depends In a great
measure upon the decision of Judge
Creighton of the circuit court, who
today listened to argument* on the
motion of the league to dissolve
temporarily the Injunction previous-
ly issued by the court on applica-
tion of the Quincy baseball dub.
The injunction was sought aud ob-
tained by the Qhincy club after the
Waterloo club had won n victory in
its legal fight, to restrain the league
from ousting Waterloo from the cir-'
cult. Waterloo in meant Quincy out,
as Quincy was to take Waterloo's
plsce in the circuit. As Quincy had
put up several thousand dollars for
release from the Central Association
in order that It might enter the
TI.reo-I league it did not relish be-
ing left out In the cold. The club
thereupon went into court and ob-
tained an Injunction restraining the
league from adopting a schedule
leaving Quincy out of the circuit.
Tho court Is now called upon to de-
cide a motion made by the league
to have this Injunction dissolved.
No, never. Its foolish to fear a fan-
cied evil, when there are real and
deadly perils to guard against in
swamps and marshes, bayous and
lowlands. These are the malaria
germs that cause ague, chills and
fever, weakness, aches In the bones
and muscles and may Induce deadly
typhoid. But Electric Bitters de-
