To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: All Important lCHscri, not alone to the police, but to the state militia, ha." been given by Captain Dodd the United States cavalry troop, now In Madison Square garden, when. In answer to a notice from the lirst that his band "must not play on Its Sunday match to it3 quarters," he grimly replied: "We are United States troops," and ordered the hand to strike up, but on a statement of the polloe Inspector: "Plop.se, Captain Dodd, we ask It as a.

favor that the band should not play." countermanded the order: And, when the militia committee notified him that they had procured rooms for himself and his olficers at the Fifth Avenue hotel he politely declined, Haying what was good enough for his men was good enoueh for himself and he should stay with them. The principles involved should be known to all: An officer of the United States army on duty never leaves his men and never receives an order, except from his superior officer in the United States service, while on dtity. In 1SC3, on the Invasion of Pennsylvania, a regiment of New York militia wis sent to ShiPDens1: Jv train from New York. They reached Harrls burff about 1 o'clock in the morning, unci, while the arrangements of engines and switches were making in the railroad depot there, transferrins them to the track of the Cumberland Valley railroad, the field and start officers, telling the conductor to "hold the train," deliberately on duty and on a forced march, expecting: to go to the front although the United States officers knew differently) left, went Into the city and ordered supper at a hotel. When the train arrangements were completed, under the personal direction of the chief quartermaster of the United States forces and the United States superintendent of military roads, the regiment was at once sont down the valley and the ranking captain present of the militia necessarily took charge.

The field and staJT the next day found ui(. nrr.mnv..1 and received a lesson which had they belonged to the army of the Potomac would not have been needed so late in the day. The train was blocking up the Pennsylvania railroad track, and it was necessary to get it out of the way speedily while proviKion and forage trains re Quired the use at dayhreak of the sir.ple track Cumberland Valley road. But. apart from this, United States officers neither leave their troops on such occasions nor iay orders for one instant for others to so transgress, be the occasion great or small.

Sir. Altgeid In Illinois knew this as a fact, and did not like It. The nation knows what might have happened had the safety of Chicago depended on Sir. Altgeid and his militia only. A.

B. Brooklyn, January 13. 1S97. "WOULD INCREASE GAS PRICES. the Editor or the Krooklyn TCnsle: 'I am for the Brooklyn Union Gas company and have followed the pa byslnoss for the past twenty five years, both In this and countries, and am familiar with all its branches, such us the setting of meters, building of works and laying of mains and service pipes; therefore, I feel that I can tell you that to allow a bill to pass the legislature reducing the price of would Injure us and the many thousands of men in this city and vicinity.

1S97. ANXIOUS ABOUT HULL, STREET. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eaglo: The residents of Hull street are very much exercised to know when that street will be properly paved. A manhole cover projects half a foot above the cobbles, there are ruts and hollows which fill with water when it rains, and. in fact, the street is a menace to health and comfort.

More than one horse has stumbled and been injured, and pedestrians in crossing have to pick their way between the ruis. A ESI BE NT. Brooklyn, January 4. 3S97. BROOKLYN LIBRARY.
