REPORT.

State of New Jersey, Office of Quartermaster-General Trenton, October Slet, 1888. •}

To His Excellency Robert S. Green, Governor and Commander-in- Chief: Sir—I have the honor to lay before your Excellency my report, ^agreeably to the provisions of the act entitled "An act for the organization of the National Guard of New Jersey." The Quar- termaster-General is also required to lay before the Legislature a particular return of all the arms and equipments belonging to the State, the number loaned out, in whose hands, and whether under proper responsibility. Statement A, to which you are respectfully referred, contains an account of clothing, camp and garrison equipage. Quartermaster stores, baggage train, and ord- nance and ordnance stores, serviceable and unserviceable, remain- ing on hand at the State Arsenal, on the Slst of October, 1888. Detailed statements of the daily operations will be found in the appendices, under their appropriate heads; the issues of all ord- nance stores, clothing, camp and garrison equipage to the sev- eral organizations of the National Guard, and the receipts of the same, from all sources, at the State Arsenal during the past year. I have the honor also to submit a financial statement of the disbursements of the Quartermaster-General's Department for the year ending October Slst, 1888, also the strength of the National Guard, and the condition of the arms in its possession. The duties of the Quartermaster-General have been increased during the year by reason of the increased service and duty of the National Guard, the inspection of Regimental and Battalion

• organizations, the yearly Brigade parades, the encampment of the Second Brigade at Sea Girt, and the dedication of New Jersey monuments on the battle-field of Gettysburg, These duties have necessitated the employment at different times of an extra clerical force. In my last annual report I wrote

(3) 4 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT.

"In consequence of the annual State Encampment, and issues to the Posts of the Grand Army of the Republic of this State, under the act of 1879, the services required of the employes, both at the office and Arsenal, have been largely increased, but no increase has been made either in number or pay. I would respectfully recommend that the annual appropriation for this department be increased to ten thousand dollars ($10,000)."

The present allowance for clerk hire, pay of Military Store- keeper and employes at the State Arsenal is seven thousand seven hundred dollars (|7,700). The necessity for the increase asked for is well known to every officer of the National Guard or civilian who visits or haa business with this office or the State Arsenal. At the date of my last annual report, this department was engaged in endeavoring to settle accounts of officers of the National Guard for property not returned or accounted for. Every spare hour of time has been devoted to this necessary work, and much has been done towards the accomplishment of this desirable object. The system of accountability for property issued to the National Guard, which has for a long time been in use, is faulty, and no proper checks are provided for. The law making annual appropriations should be so modified, allowing the Quartermaster-General to make stoppages against pay, and permitting the Comptroller of the Treasury to deduct indebted- ness of officers from the appropriation.

ORDNANCE DEPARTMENT.

A large part of the issued to the companies of the National Guard are not of the latest patterns and have been in the service for a long time, are much worn, and lacking in the necessary appendages, such as extra parts, etc. These are sup- plied upon requisitions made upon the Chief of Ordnance, United

States Army ; but a large part of these rifles cannot be placed in first-class condition, and should be replaced by entirely new arms of the latest patterns. The accoutrements are uniform, and are such as at present issued to the . Where these are damaged they should be replaced by new ones of the same regulation. Of the pieces of on hand, named in Statement A, hereto appended, the Napoleons are suitable for only Horse Artillery, and are too heavy for the State troops for drills and parades, and in every way unwieldy. The Gatling guns and breech-loading howitzers are preferred, and are an important arm. The Gun Detachments have become very per- :

QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 5 feet in their exercise. The carriages of the four Gatlings in the possession of Companies A and B, are light and serviceable. These are easily moved by hand. The harness is good. The indebtedness of the United States to this State is four- teen thousand one hundred and six dollars and eleven cents ($14,106.11). In the matter of an emergency or a Division Encampment, the State has not sufficient camp equipage on hand to shelter the men. There are in the Arsenal eight thousand two hundred and eixty-one (8,261) , calibre .58. These arms remain in the Arsenal, subject to issue to Posts of the Grand Army of ths Republic. Nothing has been done in the way of altering these muskets into breech-loaders. They are of little value to the State, but can be readily sold at a fair price to dealers. There are also seven hundred and twenty-eight (728) rifles. United States, brass mounted, calibre .54, which might be sold, it is believed, to advantage. is manufactured at the Arsenal, with tools and machinery bought and set up in 1880. With these tools there oan, in case of an emergency, be produced from twenty to twenty-five thousand re-loaded cartridges daily, at a considerable saving to the State. As a matter of information, I give below a statement of the entire number of arms, of all calibres, held in the different coun- ties of the State, which includes the National Guard organization and the associations of the Grand Army of the Republic

QUARTERMASTER S DEPARTMENT.

The camp and garrison equipage, as regards tents, is entirely insufficient in number, and those on hand, having been in use for many years, are much worn and soiled—in fact, almost worn out and unfit for issue, requiring constant patching and other repairs. Camping outfits, such as cooking utensils, stoves, 6 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. spades, hatchets, etc., have been supplied, and are in good con-^ dition. The greatest need of our National Guard is uniforms. In many instances, these have been worn a number of j^ears, and are old and shabby. Under the law, uniforms are replaced after five years' usage, but the. financial condition of the State has prevented the supplying of all that are needed. One-half of the cost of uniforms is deducted from company appropria- tions. It seems but mere justice to the companies that the State should relieve them from this expense for uniforms only worn in its service. A refusal to supply these uniforms free of cost to our National Guard, shows a lack of appreciation of its services, and tends to seriously depress those already enrolled, and to discourage others from enlisting, and to crush out any military spirit they possess. The efficiency, spirit and strength of a volunteer militia is in the exact ratio of its generous recognition by the State. Were these men armed, uniformed and equipped entirely at the expense of the State and general government, as they ought to be, we would have an admirable, efficient body of citizen soldiery, which could be fully relied upon in any emergency, and of which every good citizen of the State would be justly proud. Should uniforms be furnished at the expense of the State, Captains of companies should be charged with the number issued to them for the men of their respective companies, and they should be responsible to the State for them. They ought not, in justice, be charged with uniforms issued to men who afterwards desert and carry their uniforms away, but the law should be made so strict that every loss in any other manner should be paid for by a deduction from the annual appropriation. The total number of flannel sacks, which have been made a part of the uniform of the National Guard, issued, is two thousand nine hundred and twenty-three (2,923). The law should be so amended that every arm, uniform and equipment issued by the State shall be used only in the discharge of military duty ; and any non-commissioned officer or private who shall willfully or wantonly injure or destroy any uniform, arm or equipment, or other military property belong- ing to the State, or to the regiment, battalion or company, and: refuse to make good such injury or loss, or who shall sell, dis- pose of, secrete or remove the same with intent to sell or dispose thereof, or who shall fail, within sixty days after being notified, to return the same to the State or his commanding officer, shall be tried by general court-martial, and sentenced to pay a fine of not more than one hundred dollars, or, until the return of the same, undergo an imprisonment in the county jail of not more than thirty days, and all clothing, camp and garrison equipage, ordnance, ordnance stores and Quartermaster stores issued by QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 7 the State, or fabricated from material issued by the State and charged against the company allowance, shall be the property of the State of New Jersey.

ARMORIES.

Among other wants, if not absolutely necessities, of the National Guard, armories belonging to the State are needed. To render the arms and other property of the Militia safe from fire and other risks, these should be built substantially, made as near fire-proof as practicable, of sufficient capacity in cities to accommodate a full regiment, and located at such points as to cover the area of the city. Such a system is considered the best and cheapest. The last Legislature passed a bill providing for the location and erection of these buildings, and the State Mili- tary Board, during the year, has been engaged in the work con- templated by the law. The aggregate rents now paid by all of the companies of the Guard amounts, probably, to sufficient to pay the interest on the cost of Regimental armories, built and specially adapted to the use of the Guard and owned by the State, whereas the companies are now located in buildings unfitted for the purpose, and especially insecure. This matter will, probably, be more fully submitted to your consideration in a report of the State Military Board.

CONDITION OF THE NATIONAL GUARD.

The National Guard of the State of New Jersey, as at present constituted, consists of one (1) Battery of Sea Coast Artillery, two (2) Gatling Gun Companies, eight (8) Gun Detachments, and fifty-five (55) Companies of , organized in seven (7) Regiments and three (3) Battalions, forming two (2) Brigades and one (1) Division. During the year the number of companies of the National Guard has been increased by the mustering in of two (2) Companies of Infantry, attached to the Third and Seventh Regiments. The maximury allowed by law is sixty (60) companies. The following-named counties are without repre- sentation in the National Guard : Morris, Ocean, Salem, Warren. The total number of enlisted men, uniformed, as appears by returns made to this office, is three thousand four hundred and thirty-one (3,431). The National Guard is entitled to the gener- 8 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. ous support of the State Government, and should be kept in a state of efficiency and readiness in aid of the civil authorities. The peace and quiet of the State, and the safety of our institu- tions, depend upon our ability to promptly suppress all uprisings against the law, and to protect life and property. The National Guard of New Jersey commands the respect of its fellow- citizens, and will always be found ready to preserve the peace. The un- protected condition of our sea-coast is another reason why the National Guard should be cherished, and a military spirit culti- vated among our people. The general condition of the National Guard, as regards membership, discipline, instruction and attend- ance, is fair. The arms issued are breech- loading rifles, calibre .45. Those lately supplied to two compauies are new and of the latest pattern ; the major portion of the other rifles, as before stated, are not in the best condition. The inspections, reviews and parades of the several commands during the last two years, show improvement in many respects. The attendance, marching and bearing of the Second Brigade, was specially creditable at the encampment at Sea Girt, August 20th to 25th, 1888, and deserved the praises so freely bestowed by the vast throngs who critically watched its movements. At the dedication of New Jersey Monuments on the battle-field of Gettysburg, the First Regiment, increased by Company A, of the Second, and Com- pany F, of the Fourth Regiments, and Company C, of the First, and Company B, of the Third Battalions, under the command of Colonel Campbell, deserved and received special mention. I entirely approve of an increase to the National Guard often additional Companies of Infantry to the number at present pro- vided for by law. A more perfect consolidation of the National Guard could be effected by attaching the Companies of the Battalions to the regimental organizations, which, with the increase, would make seven regiments of ten companies each, and give the State a total infantry force of seventy companies. The population of the State has largely augmented since the passage of the law limiting the maximum of the companies to sixty (60). Seventy (70) cogapanies at this date would be rela- tively less in proportion to the population than were sixty (60) at the time of the passage of the law. One-half of the State troops are located at present in Essex, Hudson and Passaic counties. The concentration at these points is proper, in a purely military view of the possible sudden emer- gencies that might demand prompt action to protect the great interests centered in these counties. The cities in these counties are great railroad centers. The troops there are available for service at almost any point in the State in a few hours. A prac- QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 9

tically efficient brigade or regimental organization can only be maintained at populous centers. In view, however, of the rapid increase of cities outside of these counties, especially in Camden and Trenton, which can maintain four and five, instead of three and four, the number of companies should be increased as above stated. A distribution of ten additional companies in different parts of the State would enhance interest in military matters, and dispel any sectional feeling of jealousy that may exist. This number of companies could readily be added. Your Excellency has contributed much to the comfort of the National Guard, as well as to its efficiency, by a sound and lib- eral policy. Printed forms of returns, with the law annexed, requiring reports to be made annually to the Quartermaster-General, were forwarded to all the companies, through the respective regi- mental and battalion headquarters. These returns show a total number of arms in the hands of the National Guard of three thousand three hundred and thirty-two (3,332), leaving a balance of one hundred and fifteen (115) to be accounted for. The future of the National Guard looks bright, and there is •every reason to hope that in recognition of its usefulness, mate- rial financial aid will be given, and its condition greatly improved.

ENCAMPMENT.

The Second Brigade had an encampment in August. For the active and kind interest shown by your Excellency in the welfare of the National Guard during your administration, and the zeal in which you entered into the spirit of the encamp- ments held under you, our citizen soldiers are greatly indebted. The encampments have been held on the leased grounds at Sea Girt. When these encampments were assured, great rivalry was shown by different localities to secure their location, and the advantages of the several places were fully set forth. The various claims were considered, the different spots examined, and finally the majority favored Sea Girt, and it was chosen. A careful examination showed that it had many advantages. Among others were its accessibility by rail, its delightful tem- perature and sea bathing, and, above all, the ample and beau- tiful grounds, especially adapted for such encampments. It was, therefore, selected. Perhaps no place in the State is more •desirable for such a purpose, and it is to be regretted that it is not owned by the State. New York, as well as some other States, owns such camp-grounds, and has built certain perma- nent buildings, which, without interfering with camp instruc- 10 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. tions, conduce to the convenience and health of the troops. It is also economical, as the camp and garrison equipage is stored on the grounds, and its transportation to and fro saved. Col. Lewie Perrine, Jr., Assistant Quartermaster-General, and Majors James S. Yard and Cyrus F. Loutrel, Deputy Quartermasters, were detailed for duty at the encampment. Their able and entirely unprejudiced reports so fully cover the details of the encampment that I call attention to the annexed copies for information. The Brigade was commanded by Brevet Major- General William J. Sewell, National Guard of Neve Jersey, and consisted of three regiments, the Third, Sixth and Seventh, and Gatling Gun Company B, and Company A, Sea Coast Artillery. The Third Regiment was commanded by Col. Elihu H. Ropes. It consisted of seven (7) companies. The Sixth Regiment, com- manded by Col. William H. Cooper, consisted of eight (8) com- panies. The Seventh Regiment was commanded by Col. Richard A. Donnelly. It consisted of seven (7) companies. Gatling Gun Company B was commanded by Capt. Robert R. Ecken- dorff", and Company A, Sea Coast Artillery, by Capt. James Brady. Brigade Headquarters were situated on the left of the camp in front, and the cottage near the road was occupied by your Excellency and staff. The encampment, taken as a whole, was a success; the experiences gained will be useful in the future, and if any objectionable features were revealed they can be avoided. The very satisfactory measure of success attending the encampment reflects great credit upon those by whose energy and persevering eflforts it was accomplished. There was a notable improvement in the drill and bearing of the troop3, and every organization in camp felt that it had had- a week of profitable experience. The value of the National Guard as an aid to the civil power, or as a military force, in an emergency, depends wholly upon its proper armament, equip- ment, discipline and instruction. Reliable soldiers cannot be made by armory instruction and street parades. Camp duty is. an essential factor of good military instruction, and encamp- ments of considerable bodies offer advantages that a camp of a single regiment does not afford ; duty is more attractive, a friendly rivalry is stimulated among the different organizations and troops become accustomed to operating together. A brigade encampment affords all these advantages. The State should own the ground and a permanent range should be established upon it, also a store-house or arsenal for storing all necessary camp equipage. This would save the wear and tear as well as the expense of transportation. Perhaps there are too many elaborate receptions at these encampments, involving- heavy expense to the oflicers, disturbing the rest of those whO' :

do not participate and creating and fostering, in some degree, jealousies. To secure voluntary attendance and cheerful per- formance of duties which cannot be rigidly enforced, an encamp- ment in this service must, to some considerable extent, be made popular, and sober work and pleasure be judiciously alternated; but the main object of the camp, to wit, practical instruction in the various field duties of the soldier, must not be lost sight of or made subordinate to recreation, and such was not the case in this instance. If companies could serve their own rations in the same manner as is done in the United States Army, it is believed that they would be satisfied with the fare by this manner of serving it, and the saving in co3t of subsistence would amount to considerable. It would also atibrd practical instruction to the men, officers and staff officers. A brigade is the largest body that should be encamped at one time. In view of the difficulty, time and cost of concentration of troops for a division encamp- ment, and the loss of time devoted to reviews and other cere- monies with which all are familiar, such an encampment seems impracticable. The order of General Sewell, issued upon the breaking of the camp, was fully merited by the conduct of the troops, and was only a just recognition of their excellent behavior. In view of the fact that so large a body of men assembled from more than four-sevenths of the counties of the State, some of the companies meeting for the first time; the constant temptation surrounding them at a watering-place,

thronged with visitors in search of pleasure ; with many oppor- tunities for indulgence in dissipation, it is no exaggeration to say that their sobriety, discipline and attention to duty were remarkable. And it is equally true that a guard-house, except as a matter of instruction, was not needed. Their conduct has

been equally good at other encampments ; therefore, it is easily understood why our citizens should welcome their presence near their homes. No better proof of the morale and standing of the National Guard could be afforded. Quartermaster and commis- sary stores were received at the store-houses and issued by- Deputy Quartermasters Yard and Loutrel, assisted by an effi- cient corps under Mr. Charles F. Snowden, our Military Store- keeper. I do not think it is out of place to publish here a few complimentary letters received by me, commending the work-

. ings of this important department. They follow in order of date:

" I beg also to add my assurance, from personal knowledge, that all the commissary stores issued to us since my talk with you have been utilized, and that there is no waste whatever, except in the matter of some bread put into a barrel and returned, be- cause it was so ordered by some of your subordinates, to be replaced by some fresher bread from your depot. We made no complaint about the bread, but as you had fresher, I supposed you preferred to issue it. Again assuring you of my cordial appreciation of your course, I remain " Very sincerely yours, "E.

"New York, August 31st, 1S88. ^' Gen. Lewis Ferrine : "My Dear General—I was struck, and pained, by your evi- dent surprise at hearing me thank you for the good care you had taken of us in camp. It seemed as though you thought it to be irony. "I meant then to take steps to convince you of my absolute sincerity and accordingly put an expression of thanks to you in my final order which was published. at dress-parade the last day of camp. "I fear I must have been misrepresented to you, General. I fully appreciated your efibrts to care well for us, and rejoiced in your success. There were but three matters which I could have asked to have changed, and two of these were remedied by your order. They were (1) a larger meat ration than the U. S. allow- delivery ance ; (2) the of breakfast meat the night before ; (3) closely related to the latter, more cooking surface. " This last, of course, could not be remedied during that camp. " I urged that men fresh from indoor life were always extrava- gant eaters for the first week or so—just as you and I would be during a fishing or hunting trip—and that a regular U. S. ration was really insufficient to satisfy hunger, which must be done if we expect the best results. You kindly and generously accepted this view and acted upon it, but my urging of it was never any reflection upon you or your department, nor did I dream that it could be so understood. While on this, let me tell you that my men actually ate more than 850 pounds of ham for Saturday breakfast ; the scraps weighed less than twelve pounds after the QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. IS

meal was over. This, on the U. S. standard, should have lasted three meals, yet none was wasted. "We could have got along better with an early morning issue

of meat if our cook-house facilities had been greater ; but it took three hours to fry the meat on the stoves with only room enough over the fire-chambers for about three feet frying surface each, and the result was a late breakfast and a late drill. The facilities

were ample for a regiment half the size of ours ; but if you can give us two more stoves for the next encampment, we can show better results. 1 wrote Col. Perrine a personal letter of thanks in camp, and I beg you to accept my sincere and hearty thanks also for your liberal, thoughtful and efficient administration of the most important department of camp management. "Very truly yours, "E. H. ROPES."

" General Lewis Perrine^ Quartermaster- Ge7ieral : " General—I have the honor to address you, as I feel it my duty to return my sincere thanks to you for the kindness and courtesy shown me at the late encampment. It was my first service as Quartermaster, but I received as much attention as those older in the service. The instructions received from your- self and assistants did much to lighten my task, and I wish to say it was highly appreciated, as was the attention and courtesy paid me by those with whom I came in daily contact, especially Major C F. Loutrel and Mr. Snowden.

In the month of August last, the Second Regiment, com- manded by Col. Edwin A. Stevens, encamped for seven (7) days at Sea Girt. The camp was excellently located, and conducted in a creditable manner. I was present the entire time. The conduct of the troops was very highly commended. The entire expense was borne by the officers and men of the regiment. 14 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT.

APPROPRIATIONS.

Under the law as it now stands, the annual allowance to each Company of Infantry is five hundred dollars ($500), which is paid to the Paymaster or Acting Paymaster of the regiment or battalion to which such company is attached. This amount is paid by the State, " for the purpose of procuring drill-rooms and armories, for the purchase of uniforms and to defray other ex- penses incident to the existence of the regiment or battalion, or companies attached to the regiment or battalion." The latter phrase, "to defray other expenses," etc., is very indefinite, and can be variously interpreted, according to the ideas of the dif- ferent regimental and battalion boards and their Paymasters. The responsibility is centered in one head—the Board of Offi- <5ers. By this means fraud is prevented. Paymasters are under- bond, and in some instances render quarterly statements of amounts received and disbursed, with proper vouchers. In addi- tion to these appropriations. Division Headquarters receive five hundred dollars ($500), each Brigade Headquarters five hundred dollars (|500), each Regimental Headquarters five hundred dol- lars ($500) and each Battalion Headquarters three hundred dol- lars ($300), for expenses of division, brigade, regimental and battalion organizations. The total amount of these appropriations, including a special appropriation of twelve hundred dollars to the Sixth Regiment, is thirty-six thousand six hundred dollars ($36,600). The company appropriation should be increased, as the present amount, five hundred dollars ($500), paid annually to each com- pany, is insufficient to meet the necessary and proper expenses incident to a company organization, such as uniforms, armory rental, janitor's services, freight and cartage, packing-cases for clothing, etc., unless the companies are relieved from armory rent by the erection of armories by the State, as contemplated by the act of the Legislature.

TARGET PRACTICE.

As the duties of the Chief of Ordnance require him to pro- vide and furnish all ammunition, build ranges and provide other facilities for the promotion of rifie practice in the National Guard, he may be permitted to make some remarks and sugges- tions in relation thereto without interfering with the preroga- tives of the Inspector-General of Rifie Practice. To render a soldier efficient in actual service, it is essential he QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 15

should be able to handle his rifle properly, should know its •capacity and be able to fire it accurately. To attain precision in firing at objects in the field, constant practice is essential, first, at known measured distances, and then at distances deter- mined by the eye. The proficiency acquired by men in the reg- ular service, many of whom upon enlistment had probably never fired a gun, under the system of instruction, rewards, classifica- tions as to merit and compulsory practice adopted, is astonish- ing. Such a system in our National Guard can only be partially

adopted ; the difficulties of entirely doing so are insurmountable. This is especially the case in cities, where, to reach the target, if provided, requires both time and money, and naturally the number of men who are willing to devote these is confined to the few who are already proficient rifle shots. The companies located outside of large cities have many advantages, and should .avail themselves of them. Suitable target grounds can be ob- tained at short distances. The mass of the rank and file are barred, except on the occasion of annual practice made manda- tory upon them. At this annual target practice, the men are allowed to fire only twenty (20) shots. This amount of practice is ridiculously insufficient to qualify a man to enter into a contest for marksmanship. Previous instruction and practice are neces- sary. Those absent, of course, do not have this practice. It is estimated that about eighteen hundred (1,800) men of the National Guard do not participate in the annual practice on the rifle range. They have no interest in it, because they have had no previous experience in the use of the arm. To remedy this evil, and to enforce attendance and that participation in some form of practice which will insure proficiency in the use of the rifle, is a difficult problem, one solution of which, and I believe it the best one, would be a general resumption of armory practice in the difierent organizations throughout the State. Armory practice should in every way be encouraged by com- manding officers, the service rifle being used with reduced charges, regulated to the distance, the soldier being thus accus- tomed to the weight and trigger-pull of his rifle. Such practice, with suitable target, may be made a matter of instruction, recrea-

tion and emulation ; teaching men to be handy in the use of their arms and to hold their sights steadily on the object while pulling the trigger. Shells can be refilled and a supply of ammunition for armory practice is kept on hand at small cost to the State. Colonel Barnard, of the Fifth Regiment, and Major Muzzey, of the First Battalion, and their officers, have taken great interest in armory practice. The practice among their men has been considerable, and has resulted in making many of the officers -and men excellent shots. : :

16 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT.

The amount expended in rifle practice is annually about six thousand dollars ($6,000). The Legislature, at its session of 1879, amended the National Guard law to read, "the Governor and Commander-in-Chief is hereby authorized, upon the recom- mendation of the State Military Board, to ofier prizes for skill in marksmanship among the members of the National Guard." Under the authority conveyed in this section, this department has annually made and distributed, through the Department of the Inspector-General of Rifle Practice, marksmen's badges. The number distributed this year for the season of 1887, is stated as follows

EXPENSES OF THE NATIONAL GUARD.

The expenses of the militia last year amounted to one hun- dred and fourteen thousand nine hundred and sixty-eight dol- lars and forty-one cents ($114,968.41), against one hundred and eight thousand three hundred and seventy-one dollars and ninety-two cents ($108,371.92) in 1887. In the appendix will be found a statement of these expendi- QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 17 tures. There are some bills outstanding for subsistence, trans- portation, freight, cloth and uniforms, the amount of which can be estimated at tweutytive thousand dollars ($25,000), Many of these bills should be paid at once. Our creditors are getting importunate, and I have received many requests that they may be allowed to draw upon the State for the amounts due. Of course, we cannot pay drafts, nor can the bills be paid without first being approved by the Governor and audited by the Comp- troller of the Treasury. I submit herewith a statement of the expenditures on account of the State Encampment of 1887, amounting to thirty-three thousand eight hundred and forty-nine dollars and sixty four cents ($33,849,64). All bills incurred on account of the camp of that year have been paid, many of them chargeable to the account of the present year, thereby increasing the expenditures for 1888 over those of 1887.

RESERVE AMMUNITION.

I am unable to report the amount of ammunition in the hands of the National Guard, to be held in reserve for use in case of emergency only, for the reason that the returns due October Ist 2 :

In answer to a request for these re- turns, the Assistant Adjutant-General of the Division, on the 22d inst., rather curtly informed this department that "I do not forward anything from these headquarters; I only transmit to subordinate officers." The returns for June 1st will not give the number of cartridges now supposed to be on hand, as ammunition was returnedin July and expended in rifle practice.

QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 19

UEDTCATION OF NEW JERSEY MONUMENTS AT GETTYSBURG.

Under the provisions of the act of the Legislature, approved March 7th, 1888, your Excellency directed Colonel Campbell, of the First Regiment, to take his command of six (6) companies, augmented to ten (10), to Gettysburg, and place them in camp in a creditable shape. All his requests upon this department were reasonable and necessary, and were acceded to. The regiment left the State on the 28th of June and returned on Sunday, the 1st day of July, arriving home in the evening. It was accompanied by a band of forty (40) musicians, who were •employed four (4) days, at a cost of six hundred and fifteen dol- lars ($615). A drum corps for field music, consisting of thirty (30) men, was taken from the Kational Guard. They served without pay, the State paying for their transportation and sub- sistence. Colonel Campbell invited General Plume and stafl', •General Steele and staft" and General Sewell and stafi'to accom- pany him. This involved additional expense for transportation and subsistence. The regiment numbered three (3) field officers, nine (9) stafl" oificers, thirty (30) line ofiicers and three hundred and seventy (370) enlisted men. At the commencement of our arrangements for thig encamp- ment and the dedicatory ceremonies, it was thought that not more than eight hundred (800) veterans of the War of the Rebel- lion would make application for the transportation ofiered by the Legislature, yet the approved applications sent into this office by the Adjutaut-General, who examined the record of every old soldier applying, numbered one thousand five hundred and ninety-two (1,592). Of this number, one thousand two hundred and seventy-six (1,276) availed themselves of and used the orders of transportation and subsistence issued from this office. The amount expended for this service is nine thousand and seventy-three dollars and four cents ($9,073.04), as follows

The claims presented to this office and unpaid, but adjusted and ready for settlement, with a few outstanding bills for trans- portation, cannot possibly exceed the sum of ten thousand dol- lars ($10,000) in the aggregate. An additional appropriation must be made before these bills can be paid. Reports of Deputy Quartermasters, Majors Yard and Loutrel^ and resolutions of the veterans are submitted as follows:

"At a meeting held in the Camp of New Jersey Veterans, at Gettysburg, Pa., July 2d, 1888, to consider the propriety of making some expression for the munificent treatment which they had received at the hands of the State, a committee was appointed to take such action as they deemed fitting, and at a subsequent meeting the following preamble and resolutions were adopted " Whereas, The Legislature of the State of New Jersey, appreciating the valuable services of her soldiers, did make appropriation for the purchase and erection of monuments in commemoration of those who fell upon the field of honor; and whereas, upon the unveiling and dedication of said monuments at Gettysburg, on the twenty-fifth anniversary of the battle, the survivors of the New Jersey organizations participating therein unanimously agree that the tribute bestowed by the Legislature of the State of New Jersey calls for some expression of grati- tude on our part ; therefore, be it "Resolved, That we tender to his Excellency Governor R.

BATTLE-FLAGS OF NEW JERSEY REGIMENTS.

The history of these colors is : By General Orders of the War Department, No. 94, May 16th, 1865, paragraph seven of chapter five, regimental officers were required to turn over colors to the chief mustering officers of their respective States, subject to the orders of the Adjutant-General of the Army. By Special Orders of the Adjutant-General, dated June 13th, 1865, 'colors borne by regiments in the volunteer service from New Jersey, were re- quired to be turned over to the Quartermaster-General of this^ State. The colors being received, they were stored in the State Arsenal, where they remained until March 6th, 1873, when they were removed to the State House, in accordance with a joint resolution of the Legislature, approved March 29th, 1871, in which it was made the duty of the Quartermaster-General "to recover all such colors or flags not now in hie possession, and to remove all, without delay, to some suitable place in the State QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 23

House." On the 12th of March, 1880, the Legislature passed a concurrent resolution "that whenever a reunion shall be held at any place within the State, of the members of any one of the regiments of this State engaged in the late War of the Rebel- lion, or reunion of the Grand Army of the Republic, the Quar- termaster General is hereby requested to send a capable and trustworthy person connected with his department to attend the same, taking with him to the said reunion the colors of said regiment borne by them during the war, said colors to remain in the custody of said person until the close of the reunion, and- to be by him safely returned to their depository at the Capitol."

My report for 1885 contained the following:

" The loan of the battle-flags for reunions of the veteran soldiers of the several organizations entitled thereto by the resolution above referred to, is worthy of thoughtful consideration. The flags, from long service in the field and their battered and torn condition, cannot be expected to last during the lifetimes of the gallant survivors who followed them in battle, if their continued use at reunions is demanded. Many of the old soldiers deprecate their use and exposure, and believe that they should be kept a& mementoes of the past. The flags should be put in glass cases, in a prominent place in the State Capitol, anrl suitably marked with the name and number of the organizations and the list of the battles in which they were borne, so that they may be ac- cessible to the veterans at all times. In order to accomplish this desirable result, namely, the preservation of these invaluable relics, the resolution authorizing their loan should be repealed, and suitable quarters should be provided for this purpose in the building now being constructed. The order transferring these colors to the State of New Jersey by the United States Govern- ment, as well as the law of JSew Jersey, designated the Quar- termaster General as the custodian. Since the burning of the Capitol he has had no place suitable for their care and preserva- tion. They are at present on deposit in the ofiice of the Adju- tant-General. Previous to their removal to the State Capitol, they were kept in glass cases at the State Arsenal. By an act of the Legislature they are now required to be kept at the State Capitol. They were very fortunately rescued from destruction by the late fire at the State Capitol. Great care is exercised in their preservation from damage and loss whenever loaned for reunions, and are always sent in charge of an employe of this department, who is directed never to sufter them to go out of his possession, and are returned immediately, rarely out of my custody over twenty four hours." :

24 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT.

The Adjutant General, in his report of the same year, spoke of them as follows

^''Flags of New Jersey Regiments. —These valuable reminders of the brilliant history of our State organizations in the late war have, for many years, been arranged in the third-story front of the Capitol building. The fire which occasioned the ruin of that part of the building on the twenty-first day of March last, came near causing their destruction, but I am pleased to say they were removed in time and none were lost. By your direc- tion, they were placed in this ofiice until a more suitable room could be prepared for their reception. Permit me to suggest that, in the plans being prepared for the rebuilding of that part of the Capitol destroyed, provision be made for the care and public exhibit of these flags. They are torn and tender, and every time they are handled adds to their loss. Several times my attention has been called to the fact that there are flags of New Jersey regiments that have never been turned in to the State authorities, and are now held by private individuals. I suggest that measures be taken for their collection snd return to the Quartermaster-General."

The Legislature, at its last session, passed the following joint resolution, which was approved by your Excellency on the 8th of March, 1888:

" 1. Be it resolved by the Senate and General Assembly of the State of New Jersey, That the Treasurer of this State be and he is hereby authorized and directed to refit and rendered fire-proof the room in the State House now occupied by the Commis- sioners of the Sinking Fund, and that the Adjutant-General be directed to place the battle-flags of the New Jersey volunteer regiments in a glass case in this room, and that he be directed not to allow them to be touched or to be taken from this fire- proof room by any one's order under any circumstances what- ever, but to have the room open at all proper times for the inspection of the public.

" 2. And be it resolved, That all acts or parts of acts or joint resolutions inconsistent with this joint resolution, be and the same are hereby repealed. " 3. And be it resolved, That this joint resolution shall take eflect immediately."

This resolution takes the flags from the custody of the Quar- termaster-General and places them in that of the Adjutant- General, who is to keep them in a glass case in a flre-proof room QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT. 25 ia the State House. Previous to the approval of this resolution, the colors of the Twenty-Fourth Regiment vrere loaned at a reunion of the survivors, at Bridgetou.

In the appendix will be found a statement of all the issues made to the Grand Army and Veteran Associations during the jear. There was no encampment of the Grand Army in this State.

STATE WAR CLAIMS.

I desire to invite your attention to the fact that much time and labor have been devoted in this office during the last two years in going over the various reports, vouchers, etc., pertain- ing to the war claims of New Jersey against the United States, arising during the late civil war. The total amount of these claims was two million five hundred and seventy-three thousand nine hundred and ninety-six dollars and thirty cents ($2,573,- 996.30). The first payments by the Government to refund the amount expended for war purposes in its aid were made in 1861 and continued until 1879. The total amount received has been two million five hundred and fifty-eight thousand five hundred and twenty-two dollars and eighty-three cents ($2,558,522.83). Of this sum there was received during the past year six thou- sand five hundred and forty-eight dollars and forty-five cents ($6,548.45). The papers and vouchers relating to these accounts have been repeatedly explained to the auditing officers of the United States Treasury during the past twenty-seven (27) years. There can be no doubt that all the money expended by New Jersey in the late war constitutes a just claim against the United States, yet, under the rulings of the Treasury Department, there seems no likelihood of another allowance being made for many years, and all effi)rts and hope of another collection may as well be abandoned. A large amount of time and arduous labor was -devoted to preparing these claims for presentation to the proper authorities at Washington, and the numerous and frequent unnecessary explanations called for by those authorities. This labor devolved upon this department during ten (10) successive State administrations Its persistent labor and intelligent etforts in behalf of these claims is shown by the large amount col- lected, and deserve great consideration. 26 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT.

THE DIRECT TAX OF 1861.

Your attention is called to the bill introduced in the Congress December 12tb, 1887 (S. 139), " to credit and pay to the several States and Territories and the District of Columbia all mone3-8 collected under the direct tax levied by the act of Congress, approved August fifth, eighteen hundred and sixty- one." All the States are interested in the bill, for while the direct tax was not paid by all, it has been charged against those which were delinquent. Some portions of it have been secured from the delinquent States since the war. It has been the policy of the Government, when any money has been due from it to one of the States, not to pay over the amount in money, but to credit it on the direct tax account. This policy has not been an acceptable one to the States concerned, and yet under the law there was nothing else to do. The tax was assessed upon all the States alike, and those which went into rebellion could not be made an exception on that account. But it is conceded that the collection of the whole of the tax, if it were desirable, can never be accomplished. The passage of an act to refund the tax to the States which have paid it, and to remit the charge against the delinquent States, has been several times recom- mended by the Treasury Department. The justice of such a course is apparent. As the tax is likely never to be fully col- lected from some of the States, to retain that paid by the others is manifestly unfair, and the Southern States against which the charge has been made are as anxious to have the account set- tled as any State which has paid can be for the return of its money. With this practical unanimity of feeling, it is only needed that proper attention should be given the measure to secure the final disposition of it at the next session. The bill calls for the return to the States which have paid of about twelve million dollars ($12,000,000), while the delinquent States will have the charges against them wiped out, amounting to some five million dollars ($5,000,000) more. This assessment against this State was four hundred and fifty thousand one hundred and thirty-four dollars ($450,134), which was settled through this department by a credit on account of clothing and equipments furnished by this State, and a deduc- tion of fifteen (15) per centum, for a prompt settlement. Of the amount to be returned. New Jersey will receive three hundred and eighty-two thousand six hundred and thirteen dollars and ninety cents ($382,613.90), the full amount paid in. :

PAYMASTER GENERAL S ACCOUNT.

The amount paid out on pay- rolls, for pay of officers and en- listed men of the Second Brigade, for the encampment at Sea Girt, was fourteen thousand three hundred and ninety-four dol- lars and sixty-three cents ($14,394.63). Considerable delay was experienced in the office of the Adju- tant-General, by reason of names appearing on the pay-rolls which could not be found on the last muster, or the quarterly returns of June 80th, 1888, and which had to be accounted for by supplemental certificates of muster before the Adjutant- General could certify to the correctness of the rolls.

EXHIBITS.

EXHIBIT A.

Sea Girt, N. J., Aug. 25th, 1888. General—Responding to your order of the 16th inst, I re- ported at your headquarters here on the 17th, was assigned to duty as Post Quartermaster and was granted leave of absence to attend to pressing business engagements, my duties in the mean- time being kindly assumed and discharged by Deputy Quarter- master Major C. F. Loutrel until the 23d, when I went on duty and so remained until the camp was evacuated by the troops, and until this evening, when I turned over the vouchers and papers of my department to Assistant Quartermaster- General Col. Lewis Perrine, Jr., and was relieved from further attendance. In the discharge of my duties I had frequent occasion to re- mark the general observance of good order throughout the camp, showing a steady improvement from year to year in the disci- pline and morale of the troops and the efficiency of the officers. Upon the latter point I have especially to commend the im- provement derived from the experience in former years, of the regimental officers having official relations with my department, which has tended very much to simplify my business with them, to render my duties less arduous and to make my intercourse with them far more agreeable and satisfactory. I have again to commend the efficiency of Military Store- keeper Charles F. Snowden and his assistants. He was con- stantly at his post, and at all hours of the day and night cheer- fully responded to all requisitions made upon bis department. Very respectfully submitted,

JAMES S. YARD, Major and Deputy Quartermaster. To Gen. Lewis Perrine, Quartermaster-General New Jersey. (37) 38 QUARTERMASTER-GENERAL'S REPORT.

Commissary of Subsistence. ^^^' °*!_,_^.,m On the arrival of the Second Brigade, on the 18th, I com- menced my duties as Commissary and issued the rations in accordance with the regular form.

The supplies were per- sonally inspected by me on their arrival, and if not up to the standard they were promptly condemned. I wish to thank Lieut. A. H. Graff, Quartermaster of the Fourth Regiment,

N. G. S. N. J , for his assistance, and also acknowledge the able and energetic manner in which he performed his duties and carried out all my orders. I am, sir, very truly and respectfully.
