military force was inadequate to main
tain our position as a first class power 1t
was necessary to consider both our mill
tary requirements at home and those in

so the rapidly increasing demands made
by our sea coast forchcations. The lat
ter, as FAR as completed, requires some l&
batteries OF artillery and when the en-
tire increase in coast defence Is completed
3G5 batteries will be required. The war with
Spain has shown pretty ctcSrly how many
men would be required. Gen. NJ les said
the war had required 50, 900 men for actual
field operations at various points, OF
these 22,GOO went to ManiA, 10000 to Cuba

say that probably 10000 men would be suf-
cient for Cuba in the near future. The Of

would require 5000 men, possibly more.
Altogether about 10000 men were needed

The general answered Mr.. Hay of Vir-

cause the peace treaty was not ratified.
The proper equipping OF the army was
essential as a safeguard. a pillar on which

When Mr. Hay suggested that Jamaica

the conditions were quite different Por-

double purpose, as base for our ships
and forces and also to prevent Spain or
any foreign power from attempting Ia

Spain would make such an attempt, yet

In Understanding the seriousness of our
task in the Philippine and the only thing
to do was to meet the conditions in the
best possible manner,
After Gen. Sohoticld had concluded, Gen.
Miles spoke briefly on what had been said
as to the commanding general He said
the laws now clearly recognized this posi-
ton as commanding general and one of
these laws made the general commanding
tho army member, eN cfticio of the forti-
ficaiions board He did not approve the
suggestion that the head of the army be
an executive staff officer to the President.
During most Of the time for the last hun
bred years the army has been under the
command of a general or lieutenant
general and that was the practice the
world over. Gen. Miles said he did not
speak from a personal standpoint as he

BILE than the six-gun. in giving to the
enemy the first effective blows. which were
the decisive ones.
GEN. sCHoFIELD HAS ANOTHER
PLAN.
At the afternoon meeting Gen. Scho-
field, who preceded Gen. Miles in COM
mand of the army, devoted his chief at
tention to the friction inevitably arising
between the secretary of war and the
commanding general under the present
system. This had occurred during the
command of Gen, Scott, who removed his
headquarters to New York to avoid diff
fcrences arising with the war department.
1t occurred also during the command OF
Gen. Sherman, who went to st. Louis to
avoid friction. The trouble arose out of
the system which gave the head of the
army the name OF commanding general
when he fact he had little or no authority
or even influence as commanding general.
Whether he does anything depends large
~ on his personal relations with the sec
rotary of war. If these relations are not
close then the secretary of war gets to
ignoring the so-called commanding gen.
eral. In that event the adiutant general
becomes a more important official than
the commanding general. Gen. Schoheld
urged that one of the most essential fea-
lures of army reorganization was to give
the President absolute power to select
his own commanding officer. Instead of
creating the permanent grade of lieuten-
ant general he favored giving the Presi-
dent authority to select at any time a
Lieutenant general. The title also should
be that of general-in-chief instead of
commanding general as that would better
express the idea that the head OF the ar
my was the executive officer for the
President and secretary of war, Gen,
Schofeld urged also that the heads of all
staff bureaus should be subordinated to
the general in chief.
Gen. Schofeld thought the army should
consist of about $4,000 for the Philippines,
1900 to $4,000 for Cuba, 5000 to 5000 for Por-
TO Rico Is. 900 for manning and caring for
fortlications. 10000 for the Indian country
and 1900 as q reserve. He did not believe

population.
IF we are to be a first class power in
the world" proceeded Cen Miles, 1--WE
must have n military system adequate to
meet our responsibilities the world over.
believe in making that system so small
that it will not be menace to the AM
erican people and at the same time large
enough to mako 1t adequate for any
emergency.
The science OF war has undergone COM
plete change since the days of our fore
fathers, Gen. Miles said, and now smoke
less powder, long range rifles and machine
guns were decisive elements. With this
changed condition he thought one soldier
to thousand population would give an
army entirely adequate for every need.
1t would give an army of 62,OO0 according
to the last census and about 5000 on the
estimated population to-day. In addition
to this force, the use of native troops
would make an effective body in several
| colonies Gen. Miles said that we now
have a greater number OF our men abroad
| than any other country, except possibly
| Great Britain. The British force In Egypt
was hardly more than $500 men. On the
| basis of two native soldiers for every
| thousand population, the native troops in
| Porto Rico would be recruited up to about
1000 and in Cuba to about 5000.
"And II we are to keep the Philippine
| Islands-and l have no more idea that we
| will give up Manila than that we will give
up Bunker Hill or any other place immor-
talized in our hstory-then the native
force will largely augment our troops
there, and understand natives are ready
| to enter upon this service"
Gen. Miles then turned his attention to
the bill drawn by him. He had prepared
this, he said, simply In order to express
his views in DEFINITE form. He explained
In detail the provisions as to cavalry, ar
tlllery. infantry and stan. As to cavalry
organization, he said the tendency was to
reduce the number OF men In regiment,
