EURoPE's MILITARY BURDENS.
Great Standing Armies of Quarter OF
a Million of Men.
New York Sun

New York Sun.
With a population of 100000 inhabi-
tants, Germany now furnishes an an
nual contingent of 900 soldiers, which
must be reduced to $4,000 after deducting
the exempt from service, according to
the latest figures given in an article in
the Courier des Flats JTnis. consid-
cradle share of these $4,000 men are i'm
mediately incorporated either in the. land
sturm or in the recruiting reserve how
ever. so that the number of men really
Incorporated in the regular army Is only
100000. But this number is sufficient TO
bring up the present effective force to
$4,000 The men serve with the colors
only the required time to gain instruc-
ton. The length of service in the line is
two years for the infantry, three years
in the cavalry and one year in the train,
In Russia, where compulsory service
has been in existence for the last thirty
years, the men are obliged to serve five
years in the reserve and five years in
the Opoltchenie. which is the same as the
reserve of the French territorial army.
With a population of 100000 Russia
furnishes annually 980Oo0 conscripts. Of
whom about $4,000 are good for service
Under these circumstances the Govern
ment can we'll afford to be generous in
the matter of exemptions Their number
amounts to 100000, so that the real number
CT men in the regular service was 3OS, 0G'
IN 1901 and $4,000 in 1909.
In Austria the annual contingent is 47G
900. but the exemptions reduce it to All, 900.
The length OF the regular service is
two and a half years.
In Italy, where the annual contingent
Is $4,000, only 20j, 100 are found to te
good for service, which varies from two
and a half to three years.
AS to exemption from military service.
in Austria they amount to 70 per cent 4:
in Germany to 81 per cent; in Italy to
u per cent; in Fral-e to q per cent,
and in Russia to 81 per cent. The number
of men Incorporated in the armies of
France Is IS per cent; IN Germany IL per
cent. in Austria 40 per cent; in italy 80
per cent; and in Russia 20 per cent The
unfit for service are. IN France, q per
cent; in Germany 81 per cent, in Aus
tria 80 per cent. in Italy q per cent, and
in Russia 10 per cent.
Out of every thousand men from the
ages of u to CO. there are in service ia
France 5S.4; in Germany 49, in Russia 43,
In Austria a. and in Italy 80. In case
of war these figures are increased in
Germany to 1879. in Austria to 90, in
France to III, in Italy to l07 and in Rus
sia to 81.
These figures show that France. in pro-
portion to population, bears the heaviest
military burden and Russia the lightest

Valet of Millionaire Rice Continues

New York. Feb. 2G.-After three days

The valet looked much refreshed. and
his voice, which became husky under

essary for Assistant District Attorney
Osborne to keep nagging at him to
raise h'lr'oice that the jury might hear
all he said.
The most interesting part of Jones
testimony had IN do with his incarcera-

Patrick. The valet almost succeeded
in his attempt He hacked his throat
twenty-five times with knife which,
he said, Patrick gave him.
According to Jones' story, Patrick
suggested that he kill himself and gave
him the knife for that purpose. Pat.
rick also agreed to die. He was going
to poison himself according to Jones
story, because, as he said, the jig was

have called upon the governor and
commander-in-chief of the national

will render them most effective for
preserving the public peace"
