FIRST IS READY TO MARCH
Official Notification of Fact Sent to the War
Department
ORDER TO MOVE'EXPECTED ANY MOMENT
Vnneeearr Equipment and BattKage
to Me Seat Home Companies
Will lie Inspected Previous
to Starting.
LINCOLN , May 13. ( Special Telegram. )
The War department was notified this morn
ing of the readiness of the First regiment
to start on an hour's notice. In the mean
time Colonel Bratt has Issued the follow
ing order , copies of which are posted at the
headquarters of each company of the regi
ment :
1. The First regiment will hold Itself In
readiness to * proceed by train to destination
hereafter to be decided upon.
2. All necessary preparations will be made
for the return of unauthorized and uniform
clothing or other baggage to their homes.
3. The following will be allowed to be
carried by each enlisted man : One uniform
complete , one extra suit of underclothing ,
one pair field shoes , two pair socks , two
towels , hair brush , comb , soap , one blanket ,
poncho and half shelter tent , besides haver
sack and canteen , rifle and bayonet. No
ammunition will be carried enroute. Cam
paign hats will be worn.
Previous to breaking camp at tbe hour to
be designated hereafter there will be In
spection of companies under arms by regi
mental commandant. Each company com
mander will make an exact Inventory of
government tentage in their bands and re
port to regimental quartermaster before
noon today.
The actual order to move had not been
received from the War department at noon ,
but was expected at any moment. The fore
noon was spent by the First regiment boys
in drawing their new clothing and preparing
for the expected march.
Waiting for the Word.
No word was received from Washington
during the afternoon to relieve the state of
suspense as to probable marching orders.
Very little was accomplished In the way of
drill , as tlie time was tpent in the Issuance
of the new clothing and equipment. The list
of supplies received is as follows : 1,000
woolen blankets , l,23u campaign hats , 907
pairs of legglus , 3.0CO pairs undershirts and
drawers , l.DOO pairs calfskin shoes , 3.000
pairs cotton socks and 1,425 pairs pantaloons.
Among the officers of the camp today the
opinion was expressed that the approaching
crisis In the West Indies would cause a
delay In tbe marching orders , and that both
regiments would remain In camp for some
time jet.
The railroad companies have arranged to
run excursions from every direction next
Sunday if the troops are still here , and it Is
expected that the crowd will be larger even
than the one of last Sunday.
The volunteer soldiers are allowed to draw
$ C3 worth of clothing a year. If they are
careful and draw less than that amount they
are given credit and draw the balance in
cash. If a man draws over that amount of
clothing during the jcar the extra expense
is deducted from bis pay.
Culver' * Troop In Camp.
Troop A , the cavalry company from Milford -
ford , came Into the camp at 3:30 : this after
noon , and their advent , caused considerable
excitement and enthusiasm. The troop con
sists of eighty men , about forty mounted ,
the other * following closely behind on four
wagons which also contained the extra
equipage of the troops. The mounted de
tachment was pretty well drilled and per
formed come evolutions In Its progress
through the camp.
The offlctrs of troop A are J. IL Culver ,
captalnf W. S. Kennejr , flrst lieutenant and
A. E. Culver , second lieutenant. The men
are armed with sabres and carbines. The
horses brought Into camp are a hardy look-
ins lot oT animals.
The Mllford troop was organized and mus
tered Into the National Guard In 1887. and
during ten years Its uniform strength has
been about forty men. The call for actual
service has necessitated the enlistment of
forty new men , and these recruits are not
yet fully equipped. The troop has been
assigned to the Third United States Volun
teer cavalry- The commanding officer of
the regiment appointed a surgeon to make
the physical examination of the men , and
during this week the examinations were
held at Mllford. The order to proceed to
Camp Saunders for physical examination by
the board here caused considerable com
plaint among the men , who thought that the
examinations were coming too often. The
troop proceeded to the camp according to
orders , but on Its arrival a protest was
made against the Jurisdiction of the board ,
the men having already been examined and
the commissions of the officers Issued. The
protest was not allowed to delay the matter
of examination and within an hour of the
arrival here Culver's company marched into
the building occupied by the medical board.
In the examination nine of Culver's men
were rejected. Most of these had been con
demned by the examining surgeon at Milford -
ford and their rejection today was expected ,
eo that the second examination Is In the
main satisfactory. The officers of the troop
took their examination tonight. The officers
of troop A successfully passed the physical
examination tonight.
An explanation Is made tonight of the
rcpectlon of Captain Baldwin of the Nelson
company. When the list of rejected men
was given out Baldwin's name did not ap
pear. Be having successfully passed the
physical examination. A day or two later it
Is said his wife came to Lincoln , went before
the board and said that her husband was
afflicted with heart trouble. She was very
anxious to keep him from going Into the
army , and on her representation a new ex
amination was held , which resulted In his
rejection. This occurred after bis commis
sion had ben issued. Frank D. Eager , who
Is promoted to the place , was flrst lieuten
ant of Company D , Flrat , regiment , two
weeks ago , and this is his second promotion
since the troops entered upon camp life.
The explanation of the rapid rise of Eager
is that he is the publisher of a populist
newspaper of como state circulation and has
rendered some senlces to the governor that
are now being repaid. The fitness of the
officers of the Nelson company for promotion
does not seem to have been considered. The
friends of the governor claim that no politi
cal favoritism is being shown , but they are
unable to show any other grounds for the
rapid elevation of Eager , Corcoran of York ,
Senator Allen's con , and many others , all of
whom are given better places at the expense
of other men who were flrst In line for pro
motion.

ter of shipment of a carload of cattle from
j Lambert Siding , four miles west of

claimed he fed the cattle In the neighbor

j cattle were kept at Lambert Siding all day , i
having been seen early In the morning , and
while the man claimed the cattle were fed
In the district north of the track no tracks
were found to show that they came from

the attention of stockmen here they became
suspicious and notified Omaha commission
men , which was done just in time , as the
cattle had arrived In South Omaha and an
advance of $400 had been asked for.
