CAMP TAYLOR EXPECTS 5,000 MORE MEN SHORTLY

With the completion of a troop movement which took more than 5,000 men from Camp Taylor, it has been announced that at least 5,000 new select will arrive at that camp during the-present month. A telegram from Washington made the announcement and it is presumed that the men will come from Indiana, Kentucky and Illinois, the three states which have been filling the cantonment. It has done away with the talk that Indiana selects in the first draft are not to go to Louisville, but are to go at once to eastern cantonments. There is still 18 per cent, of the first draft to be called out and the Washington announcement makes it clear that they will be ordered to Camp Taylor shortly.
