[Rr T?>*rr?ph to Tb* Tribun?.]
PUttaburg. N. Y., Sept. 8. Imbued
with the same earnestness and enthu
d i splayed by the members of the
. n's cimip, -ix hundred
business and professional m? i, nearly
thirds of whom were college men,
arrived in this r.tv to-day and donned
the khaki for one month's service sa
ettison soldiers.
In some respects this third camp,
1 with its six hundred sturdy eil
seems more impressive than thl
one. although only half as large, for
it poes to show, as one of the beat
known regular army otiicers ?aid to
nipht, "thi-t these military instruction
camps are something moro than a tem?
porary outburst of enthusiasm."
It was a busy day in camp. From
thi' time thi* special tr/i.n ot twelve
Pullmans from New York pulled in, at
8:60 o'clock this morning, until long
after tne cloudburst broke over the
?amp, at 1 o'clock thi.- afternoon, all
was bustle and hustle The thunder
and lightning storm Hi,.,.led not only
the company streets but al-o some of
the pround beneath the ten's occupied
by the men. M company was particu- :
larly hard hit. ;
Private Robert (?oelet, of M Com?
pany, was one of the men disturbed by
the flood. Mr. (ioelet was bothered
all day by the loss of hi.? trunk, con?
taining p?.r' of his uniform and equip
, ment. When the ram descended and
j the Rood came it was only adding a
'little bit more to what he already had.
' Another member of M Company who
suffered was Private .John W. McGrath,
( olonel Roosevelt's private secretary.
Pi rate McGrath spent most of the
forenoon constructing a wooden floor
for his tent. This kept his parapher
; nalia above water.
Private James ?*^peyer was assigned
to "K" company and was one of the
first to report for duty. The banker
said he was greatly impressed with
the handling of the large body of men
and the promptness with which real
work was begun.
F."im "i tabulation of the official rec?
ords of t?.e 600 members of the camp it
app-Mrs th.-t Harvard men outnumber
those of any other university or col?
lege. There *re ninety seven Harvard
men in camp, thirty-nine Yale men,
twenty-eiert ? clumbia men, twenty-one
Pri iccton ii'en, fifteen from Cornell
and clever, i.-om the University of
Pennsylvanie. There is at leas; one
n.an from ei.ch of fif'y d.?Tirent col?
leges and universities in this country,
Canada, England, France and Germany.
Two hun Ired and thirty-one of the 600
mer in the camp are not college grad?
uates.
Would Mobilize Business
to Defend the Country
Washington, Sept. 8. A plan to ap?
point a commission of business men 'o
mobilise business resources of the
United States in case of war was pre?
sented to President Wilson to-day by
Bernard M. Baruch, a New York stock
broker.
Mr. Raruch pointed out that, when
Germany went to war all the country'?
business and industrial resource
quickly placed at the disposal of the
government, and he suggested that r.
would be well if the t'nited ^'n',
could be similarly prepared for an
emergency.
