cause is disease of the delicate womanly

War Department Expected to Have
the Size of the Army.
Washington, May 14.-It was ex-
peeted that soon a program will be
completed at the war department for
a substantial reduction of the pres.
ent strength of the United States
army in the Philippines. The regular
troops now there, who have seen the
most service. are the Fourteenth,
Eighteenth and TWenty-third infantry
and one battalion of the Third artil.
lery. They went out to Manila in
1888, in the first expedition under
General Anderson. and if the an
nounced policy of the department
heretofore lived up to, is continued,
these will be the first organizations
to return to the United States. Some
of these troops will be replaced with
the new leyies just raised in this
country. 1t has not yet been de
termined how large a reduction will
be made
The department also is arranging
to transfer a number of the enlisted
men from one branch Of the service
to another, with view to securing
the balance of proportions contem-
plated in the reorganization bill En-
listments are being made in salts
factory numbers and soon will bring
the army up to the maximum of 10
600 men. At present the infantry and
cavalry, under the schedule recently
approved by Secretary Root, are prac.
tically complete, or would be, if the
