Kingston Will Have Many Yolun- teers for Duty--No Official Orders Yet Received From Ottawa. Although it was only officially an- nounced on Thursday morning at 8.30 o'clock that the militia depar:- |ment had decided (o recruit 21, 600 troops for foreign service, a large number of men were at the ar- mouries by nine o'clock waiting for {the lists t6 be posted so that they icould sign at onve. In, almost every case the men are without positions and are anxious to {get work so that they can keep their {families during the fall and winter. The order which has been issued is about the same as the time that the Canadian contingent went to South Africa. A man will be taken on conditien that he can pass the I medical examination. e Not Yet Notified. Col. Hemming, officer in command jof the division, when asked by the | Whig on Thursday morning if he had received any word from Ottawa about the calling of recruits stated {that he had received no word. "When the call is given for the | volunteers for service abroad, the | pre ference will be given to the men | who have served in the militia," was the statement of the commanding officer. "No man will be forced to leave his own country unless he volun- 'teers to do so," stated the colonel. In a case of emergency, the men who are enlisted in the militia might by act of parliament be cal- led upon to go abroad but it is dot at all likely." If Canada is called upon to defend her own shores in case of invasion the 14th will in al possibility be celled out in a body. Col. Hemming, when asked if the 11th regiment had heen called up- on to mobilize stated hs had giv- en no orders as yet, buf neverthe- less the regiment has commen.ed to get ready : Order to 14th, An order has been issued by Capt 1. B. Sparks, adjutant of the 14th regiment, ordering men of the re gZiment to be at the armiouries this evening at 7.30 o'clock to take out their uniforms. b It is thought that the wniform is p being issued for the purpose of find- ing out how many men could be counted on in case the regiment is called out It has been stated that an order has been received from the depart- ment at Ottawa, but this is denied by Co Hemming, officer in com- mand of the division. i 14th Regiment Will Recruit Un Thursday morning Capt. E. B. Sparks, adjutant of the 14th - ment, placed a notice on the reg: newspapek bulleting asking for cruits to report at the armouries this evening for the purpose of getting in shape. | Capt. Sparks, when spoken to by the Whig, stated that it had been de- cided to call for recruits 20 as to get the regiment up to strength so that tn case it is called upon to do Can adian duty it would be ready ""At.the present time there is thing startling," said Capt. Sparks The uniforms are going to sued. to 'all the companies this week so that there will be no lost. time in ease of a call. No member of the regiment will be sent out of Canada unless he volun- teers was the statement of Major Dawson to the Whig on Thursday morning re- be } No Word As Yet. On Tharsday morning when a Whig reporter called at the offices of the R.C.H.A. he was informed that the batteries had received no orders up until Thursday morning at 9.30 o' clock, Guarding Lower Canals. Through a mistake the Whig stat ed on Wednesday that "I" company of the 4th Hussars, which are stat- ioned at Prescott, had heen sent to the Murray camal for duty. The item should have read. that the men wero doing duty at Cornwall, Ferris Point and Prescott, guarding the St. Law rence canals. Recruiting by R.C.H.A. i Recruits were taken on the R:C.H.A force, on Wednesday, but owing to a shortage of forty horses thers was no recruiting on Thursday There were a great number of men who ofiered their services on Wednesday, who could not be accepted Germans Naturalized Here. Simon. Stenzler, 203 Wellington Street, aud Adoli Kamincki, 277 On. tario street, are the heads of two families of Germans in the city. Stenzler when asked if he would go to to the war replied that he would not. He said that first he was a natural ized Canadian, second it would be fool- ish of him to go to Germany, and break up his home: for the sake of adding one soldier to the A strength. He was once a captain mn ®» German remiment, corresponding to the 1th, P.W.0. Rifles. } 3 -- { Ofer? Alabama \ prominent eif}z 8 received a telegram from Dallas B.
