Washington, July Alt is said at the
war department that the return Of the
volunteer organizations from the Phillip
pines will have NO effect on the rank OF
the. volunteer general officers now on
duty there. The number of general officers
depends not on the particular organiza-
lions in the service, but on the total num-
Der Of man. The law provided for one
major general to every 10000 There viii
be in the joint establishment when the
present recruiting arrangements are con-
plstsd, abnnt "a. 900 men. There are now
three MAJOR generals in the regular sstab-
lishmsnts Miles, Merritt and Brooke, in
the volunteers, Shafter Otis, Lawton
and Macarthur. This arrangement viii
probably st9udsas there is fraction over
the quota Of men for six major generals.
There are now on duty in the Philippines
the following briradlers In the order Of
seniority named: Bates. Young,
Sohwan, Hail. Wheaton, Grant, Hughes
and ovenshine. 1t is understood thar
these will all retail their commands. 1t
is not believed the increase IN the joint
establishment win necessitats tho ap-
poiRtment OF any more brigadisr gener-
ais, there being already snrplus in Cuba
and elsewhere who have been cared for
under the provision of the six months
