WILL OFFER SUBSTITUTE.
Minority of House Military Affairs
Committee Has Prepared
an Army Bill.

Washington, Dec. 23.-The bill for
the increase of the regular army, which
the minority of the committee on mill
tary affairs will offer asa substitute for
the Hull bill, was drawn by Represents
tive Hay, of Virginia, and is now in the
hands of the war department, where an
estimate is being made of the cost of
such military establishment as it
provides. The bill, as drawn, provides
for standing army of 10000 men, 49,
900 artillery, 5000 infantry, 5000 cav
airy and engineer, ordnance and signal
corps and general staff.
To meet the existing exigency for
troops in Porto Rico, Cuba, the Philip
pines. Hawaii and the Ladrones, the bill
provides that the president may issue
his proclamation for $4,000 additional
volunteer troops to be enlisted for two
years. These latter troops are to be
commanded by officers appointed by
the president. The organization is to
be the same as in the regular army, the
strength of the different arms of the
service to be determined by the presi-
| dent.
tered out within 60 days after the pas
sage of the act, but volunteer orga MIA
tons now in the service shall be given
preference for enlistment in the new
volunteer army if they so elect within
Is days. The bill provides that no reg
ular army officer who was in the army
prior to the war with Spain shall be
mustered ont of the service
Mr.. Hay will file the bill and the mi
with the clerk of the house. The main
contention the report will make for the
minority plan as against the Hull bill
for standing army of 100000 men is
that the future of the Philippines and
Cuba are yet undetermined, but that
if the standing army is increased to 1OO.-
900 it will be almost impossible. no mat
ter what may happen in the future, to
reduce it. The report will say that
standing army of 100000 men will cost
the people of the United States $685.
| 100000. This added to the $145 900 600
for pensions will bring the cost of the
military establishment up to $310,00O,-
900, the largest charge in the world for
military establishment.
| The naval establishment would bring
the total up many millions more. Mr..
Hay estimates that standing army of
10000 with $4,000 additional volunteers
would cost $1OO,OOO,OOO, but this charge
might continue only for two years. The
creation of volunteer force for tenn
pcrary purposes would always keep
1t within the power of congress to ad
just the strength of that force to the
existing condition.
