has received from Senator 0. ii. Plutt
a printed copy of the new militia bill,
which has Just passed Congress.
General Cole says that as it all-
peared to him at present it conflicts
with the state law only in the length
of time for which a member of the
state milltiu could he mustered into
the service of the United States. The
new federal law says that men in the
state-militia shall be subject to a
nine months‘ term in the service of
the United Slates, if ordered by the
president. while the state law says
that the term shall he only for three
months. “0! course," said Gen. 00hr.
“the federal law. where it conflicts
with the state law, supersedes the lat—
ter."
"Will the state law be changed to

"i don‘t know what the General Allir

"it is with the exception of the reg-

can be easily adjusted under the pres

law there must he twelt'e companies

board of organisation has ample pow;
or to increase the number of «autumn

Cole replied.
One of the most interesting points
brought out. by Gen. Cole was that
members of the state militia will
come within the provisions of the fed-
eral pension law in case they are in.

ted States. The State militia may he
turned over to the United States gov-
ernment for at least five days each
year for mining purposes. and this
training will take the place of the us-
ual state encampment and will satis-
fy the state law requiring the latter.
The holding of the training under the
United States control is subject to the
order of the president. The present
organisation of the Connecticut Na-
tional Guard requires sixty-five men
find three oliicere to each company.
and this is the number which is or-
dered by the regular army regula-
tions. The president, as commander-
in-‘chief of the federal forces, has the
power to increase the maximum num0

While‘ the government has not the
