OFFICERS ARE INEFFICIENT
0austic Report of the Committee on British
Military Training.
MANY WITHOUT ELEMENTARY EDUCATION
Inferior Men Permitted to Pass Mus
ter, While hose with Signal
Ability Meet with No Sub
stantiaI Reward.

LONDON, June THE report Of the
committee on military education and train
ing, issued today, furnishes the strongest
Official corroboration Of the ineficiency
Of the officers OF the British army. The
committees report, which is based on the
evidence of the officers themselves, from
the commander-in-chief ~downwards. fills
forty-eight printed pages with caustic
criticism OF the existing system.
The witnesses were unanimous in saying
that the junior officers were lamentably
deficient in military knowledge. the desire
to acquire knowledge. and in zeal.
The committee finds that the young
officers will not work unless compelled to
do so, that keenness is out of fashion" and
that st is not correct form" The com-
mittee declares that many officers do not
possess an elementary education. and
plaintively protest that officers ought lat
least to be able to express themselves
clearly and concisely in their own
language" The report condemns the sys-
TENS OF both Woolwich and ~Sandhurst,
where education is "far from satisfactory,
the instructors having no indueement to
teach the cadets, still less to work"
With a view to diminishing the expenses
of officers belonging to cavalry regiments,
the report recommends that polo tourna-
ments, regimental coaches and the keep
ing Of hounds be forbidden.
Perhaps the penultimate paragraph is the
most important Of all. 80 long as
mediocrity is permitted to pass muster, I"
says the committee. "and signal ability
meets with no substantial recognition. it
is useless to hope for any valuable results
from verbal amendments to the regulations.
Nothing but inducements, in the shape OF
certain reward for good work, either in
peace or war, can raise the standard Of
knowledge through the commissioned ranks"
The committee, therefore, recommends

principal colleagues from among the best
known and qualified radical leaders. In
the section Of M. Delcasse, Rouvier and
Chaumie, he counterbalanced the cabinet
with a moderate element that will guarantee
it against the adventurous fulhllment of the
drastic innovations which occurred largely
in the electoral promises Of several OF the
new ministers. These promises, il carried
out, would heap a hundred millions on the
annual expenditure. whereas the policy de-
manded by the majority of the country and
promised in the ministerial declaration, Is
one of serious retrenchment in order to

situation.
ROuVier Treasury Watchdog.
The presence Of NJ. Rouvier who enters
the cabinet in the role of the savior OF his
country's finance. is distinctly reassuring
although many politicians question whether
the divergent views Of M. Rouvier and the
advanced radicals promises a long life for
the ministry.
The Temps says: The future Will show
whether the understanding between M.
Rouvier and his colleagues will last and
suf1ce to restore the country to the calm

policy Of sound finance is the beginning
and end Of all French politics.

sents moderate opinion thinks a conflict

FRANCE OVERCABINET CRISIS
Republic Survives the Critical Stage and
Starts Out with New Plans.
PRESS DOUBTFUL OF THE NEW MINISTRY
Ouvier Presence as Saviour of
Country's Finance is Assuring, but
StiII Ordinary Survival of
Cabinet IL Questioned.

PARIS, June France has passed
through a cabinet crisis and the Combes
ministry has been formed without a ripple
OF excitement among the general public or
even in the Hobbies OF the chamber Of depu-
ties. Senator Combes was the first name
mentioned as a successor to M. Waldeck-
Rousseau and Immediately after the lat
ter's resignation as premier became oficial
and as soon as NJ. Brisson announced that
he could not form a cabinet, a Combes
ministry became a certainty. AS was In
evitable after the verdict Of the country
and the unequivocal vote in the chamber
Of deputies in the election of Bourgeois as
president the new cabinet was chosen al
most entirely from among the radicals, NJ.
Rouvier being the least advanced member
of it. MN. Doumergu and Pelletan, repre-
sent the radical socialists and NJ. Mougeot,
the minister Of agriculture, represents the
radical left. M. Combes, Delcasse, Troull-
lot, Vale, chaumie and Maroujles are re-
publican radicals.
Personnel of Ministry.
The new cabinet is constituted as fol-
lows:
Premier. minister Of the interior and
minister of public worship, Senator Combes.
Minister Of justice, Senator Vale.
Minister of foreign affairs. NJ. Delcasse.
Minister Of war, General Andre.
Minister of public works, M. Maruejouls,
Minister of public instruction. Senator
Chaumie.
Minister Of marine, NJ. Pelletan.
Minister of colonies, NJ. Doumergu.
Minister Of commerce, NJ. Trouillot.
M. Berard, a member Of the Chamber OF
Deputies, will become under secretary OF
posts.
The ministerial declaration will announce
that the task which will call for most OF
the attention of the government and Par
lament will be Strengthening out the coun-
try's finances. and will dwell on the ne
cesstty OF economies and reforms calcu-
lated to re-establish the budget equili-
brium. The cabinet. therefore. will intro
duce a measure providing for a more Just,
proportional distribution of the taxation
and 1t also desires to reduce the term OF
military service.
The ministerial declaration will, further
more. render homage TO the late Waldeck-
Rousseau ministry, and the policy OF re-
publican defense, which the recent cleo
lions so strikingly endorsed. The new
cabinet will continue this policy and will
battle. If necessary, the maehinations Of

NEW MINING ENTERPRISE
May Be Inaug at Tombstone a
 an Early Day.

MT. w s. Baker, the general manager of the General Concentrates company of New York for New Mexico and Ar zona, who has been in Tombstone for the past ten or twelve days in company with r. H. Lerchen, one of the best mining engineers in the west, left this morning for Fl Paso. While here MT. Baker and MT. Lerchen were examining a large proposition for their company and have done a weeks work thereon, taking out in the neighborhood of a ton of ore for the purpose of testing it with one of their machines. Should the test prove a success we are conf dentially informed that Mir. Baker s company intends to put in large plant here immediately. MT. Baker was very well pleased with the mining outlook in Tombstone and in Cochise county 4nd says that it is but a question of it short time until Cochise county vii! be d leading producer of copper, silver and gold ores.

EDDY G, s. & c. co.
Promising Group of Mines Near Frog
 Tanks.

F. L. Eddy returned to the city Sat by the Eddy Cold, Silver and Copper company which he recently organized in this city, and in which D. A. Dono- frio and others are largely interest ted.
 Some mention of this property was made by The Republican a few days ago, and at the time it was announced the claims were in the White Tank mountains. That was an error, as they arc situated in the Frog Tank noun tains, eight miles due west of Frog Tanks and eleven miles north of Beard sley station, on the S. F. P. & P rail road. The original holdings Of the com pany consisted of five claims, but on his last trip out MT. Eddy located for the company six additional claims, making a total Of eleven in the group. The company is capitalized for $1,000,- eco, and besides MT. Eddy there are at present but two mea doing development work, though a larger force will be employed at once.
 Sufficient work has already been done to demonstrate that the property is beyond doubt fine prospect, in fact has every appearance of q big mine. that could be defined at the present stage of development. Mir. Eddy stated yesterday that three large mineral lodes cross the company's ground. In one of them copper seems to predom- mate. In the central ledge gold is the principal metal, and in the third, which nearly parallels and jcins the second at one end of the property, the greatest values are lead and silver
 Tn the copper lead there are seven veins or pay streaks, running from two inches to nine inches in width, and showing an assay value of S4.13 in gold and per cent copper. This is practi- cally a surface showing, as only onc years assessment work has been done on the claim. The ore, however, is fair tC Behold, and MT. Eddy has some fine samples of it here
 In the gold lead there is a pay streak about one foot wide, which shows a gold value of S30,othcr metals accom- paryiug. On this lead there are two open cuts. thirty-five and forty-five feet long, with surface work done in many other places.
 The third lead also carries gold sil- ver and copper. but it's predominatiaS orc is carbonate O; lead. There is an
 open cut and tunnel 1O5 feet deep on | this vein, which is thirty-three inches wide in the face of the tunnel. It has varied in width from the beginning,
 though the average width is constantly | increasing. One big ore shoot was ! passed through, in which the vein wid- ened out to five feet. The highest as say that has been made from ere in this vein is $1O.74 ia gold, 62.OS ounces silver, 5 per cent lead and 2per cent ! copper. The result of an assay of 1,20O feet along the surface Of this ledge was | S11.16 gold. .C6 of an ounce in silver, F | per cent lead and .01 per cent copper | A shaft has also been started on the 1 top of the hill to connect with the tun-
 mel for the purpose O. giving better air
 The ores are all free milling and free
 concentrating, no sulphides so far ap-
 bearing. There is good water for camT
 purposes within half mile, and with in four miles there is a good spring ample for milling purposes.

owned by himself and James Kenney.
 Bill Cook has started up his arrastra at Virginia Camp on ore from the Vir- ginia mine. His motive power is a big burro and the ore he is running through will pay by this slow method of extraction.
 O. F. Kuencer came over from King man yesterday to complete a survey he has been making of the underground workings at the -Connor, which he completed and returns home today.
 Jacob Mitchell has gone to work on his claim near the shelter to see if he can open up a body of ore. Mir. Mitch ell has some good properties in this dis trici and. we would like to see some one with money help him open them up. The claims would justify the outlay of a little money to ascertain their value.
 About twenty-five men were laid off at the Tennessee mine last week. This reduction in the force has been made in order that new ground can be opened up. everything above the 400 level hay ing been worked out. The main shaft will be continued to the eco and drifts run each way. The force will be in- creased inside of thirty days.

such nature and magnitude was known of in these parts and while it is prob able big deal has been made the dis patch leads to exaggerated conclusions. Regarding it the Tucson Post says:
 This property was originally owned by Mrs. Fannie Poyne, but was incor- porated by a company of St. Louis cap Halsts and John r. McDermott, lead ing attorney of St. Louis, was made president. He and others interested have been negotiating for the sale of the property for some time.
 Mcssrs. Wright and Fleming, attor- neys for and stockholders in the com pany, were seen concerning the report ed sale and stated that they had heard nothing of it. although they knew that representatives Of the company had been conferring with Chicago and St. Louis capitalists. with a view to the sale Of the property. They did not be- lieve that the consideration was as high as that named in the dispatch.
 The Lincoln Copper company owns fcrty-five claims in the Sierretas and have spent $S0,C coo in developing their properties, which bear gold, silver, cop per and lead. Enough ore has been shipped to pay for development work.
