tomorrow. viii re.inauhsh his portfolio,
was to prspare a stsrsDent covering the
.everal masters regarding the conduct o
tiDe war witch has been tie subject Of
criticism in the publsc press, particularly
with receos1oe % the appointment Of
officers in the volunteer army. General
Alger in hss statement says;
n am led to make the following state
ments on account Of many criticisms
which hare been made by the pubic
press, especially on account Of recent
art6cIe in the London Times containing
assertions which have no foundation In
truth.
AT the conmencemens Of the war
With Spain the regular army consisted
Of only 5000 men. with the nAnimum
nunIbe. Of officers prescribed by law. The
situation may be partially appreciated
when it Is remembered that within 60
days from the declaration Of war the
strength o. the army was Increased 10
275,oOO and everything for the equipment
Of this force had to be manufactured,
transported and distributed for use.
From the statement referred TO, the
public might De LEAD 10 believe that the
volunteer army was Officered by men Sc
lected through pOliticaN influence with
the secretary by special favor and with
OFT any regard to fitness for the duties
they were to perform.
"As is well knSwn. the volunteer force,
with the exception Of three regiments of
engin9e,s, three regiments Of cavalry and
10 rsgimsnts Of immune infantry, was
made up OF regiments from the various
states. the officers of which were all
aprointsd exclusively by the governors
of the respective states from which the
regiments came.

Applications was over 5000 or the num-
her appolnsed there were, for instance,
2s major generals, of whSch ls were taken
from the regular army and seven from
civn life. OF these seven all but one
were graduates of West Point military
academy and all had distinguished them
selves in command during the civn war.
