Morrell bill likely to pass reorganizes District militia

The National Guard units completed their annual inspection except for the Second Regiment and supporting corps with the final session due February 17. Officers favor passage of the Morrell bill to align the District militia with the regular army, improving discipline and eligibility rules under new court powers. Col. Brett notes the bill replaces battalion quartermasters with battalion quartermaster and commissary at second lieutenant rank and expands military court powers to compel attendance and punish. Extra riot duty pay would rise to three times regular army rates, a move aimed at attracting a more desirable enlistment pool. Several enlisted members were discharged upon their own application and others in the interest of service.
