Army Pay Delayed as Officers Borrow Funds for Troops
With June pay stalled due to war appropriations, officers at Fort Russell borrow funds from banks to pay troops ahead of a Pole Mountain tour. Captain Schultz plans to borrow about 2500 for Troop D Ninth Cavalry, relying on future government paymaster Noble to reimburse. If wages arrive in September, a three month delay could amount to roughly 160000 for Fort Russell troops.
