ARMY BILL MUST PASS.
In Event of It's Failure the President
Will Call an Extra Session.

Washington. d. c.. Feb. l5.-The
president has conveyed assurance to
some of the party leaders in congress
in addition to those given last week,
that he will certainly call congress
together in extra session if it fails at
the present session to pass the army
reorganization bill.
In answer to inquiries. the admins
tration has been obliged to decline all
propositions looking to the tiding over
of the needs of the army by passing a
joint resolution. simply extending the
appropriations on the basis Of the pres
ent organization, holding that this de-
vice would be utterly inadequate to
meet the absolute necessities of the
case. The status of the volunteers
would, it is said, be extremely ~unsatis-
factory and there would he absolutely
no assurance that the president could
retain them in service wen when the
emergency is great. The same state
Ll'hb NSulh Apply " Inc ltSuldl dl my
soldiers who enlisted for the war.
A very serious objection to the joint
resolution program, too. according to
the war department officials, would be
its failure to supply the staff and line
officers absolutely needed. These of
ticials say that the pending Hull bill
provides for just 1872 original appoint
ments of second l~ieutenants, and it is
declared to be the policy of the admin
istration to divide these places among
the states and territories on the basis
of population.
Reports from the senate end of the
capitol convey the impression to the
officials that the speediest way to Sc
cure action upon the army reorganiza-
tion bill is to allow the Cockrell bill to
be reported from the military commit
tee. it being understood that this bill
commands the support of the majority
of that committee.
Providing, as it does, for a purely
native soldiery in Cuba, Porto Rico and
the Philippines, the measure is looked
upon by the war department officials
as most unsatisfactory. Therefore they
have urged their friends in the senate,
while allowing this bill to be reported
from the committee, to move the adop-
tion of the Hull bill as it came from the
house as a substitute.
