novel features.
A. consoiidates the adjutant generals
department and the inspector generals
department. in the general staff. alb
serbs the ordnance department in
to the artillery corps transferring
the duties of the signal corps to the
engineer corps and the officers
to the infantry. 1t also adopts
the cavalry strength of the Miles
bill, the artillery strength of the Hull
bill and the infantry strength of the
Miles bill. One of the new features is
requirement. that all officers of the
general staff shall perform tour of
duty before each promotion, which

Busily Engaged in Drawing Up Plans
for the Discharge of His Duty.

WASHINGTON, Dee 14.-Gen. Ludlow,
of the city of Havana, is busily en-
gagged in drawing up plans for the dis
charge of the heavy task set for him,
so that he may start for his post in the
course OF II few days. The first
duty before him is the organiza-
ton of u complete staff, as he
will not take with him the staff
of his division. This staff
of necessity must be of n
special and expert character, including
sanitary engineers, civil engineers, of
ficers familiar with customs practices,
financial officers, and in fact men
capable of undertaking the manage
ment of the affairs of n great city
which is now i'll a deplorable condition
and must be made a model for remain
ing Cuban towns.
Gen. Ludlow SAID Tuesday that not
all of the members of his staff would
be selected in the United States. IL
would be good policy TO wait until he
arrived in Havana and ascertaincd what
material was obtainablc there to suit
his needs. He will give attention at the
outset to the formation of a system OF
police for the city. He was evil
IDENTIFY not aware of the func-
tions said to have been reposed
in ex-Chief of Police McCullagh,
who is now on his way to Havana, but
has in mind the ofganiza tion of a force
that may be described as a slightly
modified gendarmerie to undertake the
policing of Havana.

Congressional Terms May Be Increased.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ia PROPOSE"
said Representative Mills, of Chicago,
ito push the bill introduced at the last
session making the terms of members
of the house four years instead of two,
and providing for their election at the
same time as that of the president. 1t
is necessary for every administration
to have the support of the lower house
of congress at least. 1t is unreasonable
to suppose that an administration can
do good work if in the middle of its
term hostile house of representatives
happens to be elected"
