Washington, Nov 20. Several com
panies of soldiers have arrived here
and others are coming. This is made
the basis for sensational paragrapes,
about massinc the armv in this dis
trict. There are assurances that these
trsops are merely enroute, and their
movements have no strategetic or
political significance. It is likely
however as the district has no local
government, that the army will police
the 10 miles square until after the
fourth of March.

United States Senate. He was refused
hisseat on the ground that the Legis
lature was not properly arid Irgally
organized. Now he claims that as the
returning board is recognized as a legal
body, he should be seated.
