BRITISH ARMY TOO WEAK.
Home Batteries and BattaliOns LittI
Better than Nurseries.


Copyright, 1897, by the Associated Press.)
LONDON, Oct. 16.-The Army and Navy
Gazette voices the opinion of British mill
tary men in congratulating the country on
the fact that the government has at last
determined to increase the effectiveness of
the army, as already pretold in dispatches
from Sept. % on. The Gazette says it is
useless to deny that there is reason for
alarm at the present moment, adding that
the army is unequal even to ordinary de-
mands, the home batteries and batallions
being little better than so many military
nurseries" Continuing the Gazette says:
"The men are mostly immature boys, and
the reserves, which would be mobilized un-
der certain conditions, are unrestrained. The
militia, which was once valuable, has been
allowed to run to seed completely, and the
volunteers are a doubtful source of strength.
No patriotic Englishman can regard the sit
uation with complacency. 1t is deplorable
that a nation so prosperous should be pow
erless for military effort beyond the reach
of her ships guns" In other quarters the
old proposals for a conscription are again
heard.
The newspapers are poking a great deal
of fun at the latest War Office order pre-
scribing the weight and height of candi-
dates for commission in the army, who must
not be less than five feet five inches high
and $50 pounds in weight at the age of
eighteen, or t1ve feet five inches high and
13S pounds in weight when twenty-one years
old. 1t is pointed out that under this rule
neither Lord Wolseley nor Lord Roberts
could have entered the army while Ma
poeon, Nelson Wellington, Julius Caesar,
Alexander the Great and William of Orange
are bristling with letters from friends of
the candidates for commission, many OF
whom are understood to be undergoing fat
tening processes in order to reacn the re-
uuired weight

AGGREssIoNs IN AFRICA,
Bishop HnrtseII Says, May Lead to
Wars Between EurOpeans.

Copyright, 1897. by the Associated Press.)
LONDON, Oct. 16 - DR.. Hartsell, the
American NJ. e. bishop of West Africa, in
an interview, emphasizes the increasing dan
gers of the situation in West Africa owing
to the activity of the French authorities,
as already outlined in cable dispatches. The
bishop says that unless the best statesman
ship is brought to bear upon the African
problems the European wars of the next
century will be fought on that continent.
He suggests as the best solution of the
problem that Great Britain should give Ger
many Walfisch bay and give France Ashan-
tee. Bathurst and all rights in Morocco and
Algiers, France, on her part withdrawing
all her claims in Egypt (which England can
not surrender The bishop adds that there
is no doubt King Leopold of Belgium is re-
solved to take over the Congo Free State as
a Belgian colony in 1900. Already the state
is being divided into districts to be occu-
pied by various Roman Catholic orders
The Saturday Review commenting upon
the report that Germany has signihed to
the government of the Transvaal republic
that she would regard an alteration of the
dynamite concession as an unfrtendly act,
says: THE rumOr seems probable; but in
the present instance Emperor William has
made a mistake. We bound ourselves not
to interfere in the internal affairs Of the
Transvaal, but we will not brook any inter-
ference on the part of Germany. If the
Emperor thinks he can interfere for the
benefit of the English and other gold-nlin-
ing companies he will find himself mis-
taken. The peremptory hands Off which
was England's answer to the imperial
busybodys interference after the jameson
raid can hardly so soon have been forgotten
by him."

Noncombatants Robbed by Both Reb-

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 16-A private let

says that chaos reigns in the little repub-

mated by the revolution. Exchange is up to
$1.S5, and the coffee plantations are being
deserted with the berries rotting on the
trees. The owners are in terror of assess
ments and all the native proprietors have
been mulcted in large sums for the purpose
OF carrying on the war. According to the
letter, they are first assessed by Barrios
ard then by the revolutionists Both the
government and the rebels are impressing
the laborers in the army wherever they find
them, and the laborers are taking to the
