No New Guard Units Are Desired For Army. An official announcement of the war department that “no new national guard units are desired for organization at this time except to supply deficiencies a state may have in special arms,” has caused speculation as to the status of the new regiments being raised in Indiana. Further inquiry at the” war department as to Indiana developed the fact that Indiana was included in this order and that if Indiana is organizing now units of troops it is without the authority of the government. News dispatches several days ago said the state of Indiagp had been authorized by Gen. Barry, commanding the central west department, to organize these new units. Army officers say, however, that Gen. Barry surel ydid not do this, as the organization of new national guard units clearly is without his scope of jurisdiction. It is said at the war department that if new units are 'being organized in Indiana, that they are being organized on the state’s own authority and that no new regiments will be included in a call for service at the border. Therefore, if new regiments are completed, there will be no chance for them to be sent to the front. Indeed, they will not receive federal recognition, which is essential to their getting arms, uniforms and supplies of all sorts.
