Adrt General corbln,s Report.

The annual report of Major General
Henry c, Corbin, adjutant general of
the Army, deals with every feature of
the Army, and begins with a statement
showing how the Army is to be reduced
by December I to 6o,2oo men, of which
2877 belong to the staff departments.
The report shows that during the fiscal
year there were IS officers killed in ac-
ton or died of wounds and disease 81
resigned and 6S retired. OF the enlisted
men Lazy were killed or died of wounds
or disease, $500 were discharged on
the expiration of service, 5,6o8 were dis
charged for disability or dismissed by
order of court martial, 4,667 deserted 2
were missing and 2o3 retired.
General Corbin, in calling attention to
his former recommendation that the
rank and pay of military attaches abroad
should be increased, suggests that re-
lected for this service While the num-
Der of attaches has been decreased, the
service has improved because of the re-
ciprocal relations that have been estab-
lished with the war departments of the
several governments where officers are
stationed. He cites the two cases where
the military attache at Paris secured the
model of the Lebel rifle and the French
saddle from the French government.
General Corbin discusses the various
schools of the Army, and points out the
advantages that will accrue through
them.
In reviewing the reports of the officers
who participated in the army and navy
maneuvers last September General Cor
bin says that much valuable information
was acquired.
He strongly recommends that similar
exercises be conducted annually and
made to embrace each year new theater
of operations, so that the benefit may be
shared by the different garrisons in the
several fields of defense

Prize Fights In the Army.

The War Department is reluctant to
commit itself on the subject of prize
fighting in the army.
Some time ago the commanding
general OF the Department OF Missouri
asked whether an enlisted man in the
army had right to take part as prin-
cipal in an athletic contest. He was
informed that there are some subjects
as to which it is impossible for the
War Department to prescribe a uni
form rule. and this is one OF them.
But apart from the strict law in the
case it is matter OF common infor-
nation that local sentiment is divided
in respect to contests OF the kind de-
scribed. and this adds to the difficulty
OF framing a rule. were there no legal
obstacles in the way OF its preparation" !"
There being no legal power in the
Department TO establish rule on the
subject the acting Secretary OF War
decides that the question presented be
lett to the regulations OF the post COM
mander.

The Developments following the in

now have civil government almost every

ing its advantages. The system of pro-
vincial and municipal government has
worked well. During the past year there
has not been a single defalcation. The
Government is strictly one of civil
service.
There is a degree of peace and safety
in the Philippines now that was never
reached under the Spanish rule. The
Spaniards used to pay the brigands to
keep the peace, but we have refused to
continue this system After the passage
of the Philippines bill last year we es-

we now have 5000 of these police We
hnd that they are the best men for the
business, and they have cleared the pro-
vnces of law-breakers The service is
one. which appeals to the natives, for the
police are chosen from the tribes among
whom they must serve.

great one. What are needed most are
railroads, and these may be built soon by

sideration, and its building will help

NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.
Rural Free Delivery Service.

The annual gross cost OF a complete
rural free delivery service throughout
the United States will approximate $74,-
ooo,ooo, according to the annual report
First Assistant Postmaster General
Wynne received from August W..
Machen. the general superintendent of
the service. The remaining 100000
square miles not now covered by rural
free delivery service, according to the
report will require the employment of
10000 or 27,ooo carriers in addition to
those now employed, making the entire
force of carriers when the extension Of
the service is completed, within the next
three years, 10000. After this exten-
sion is completed the annual rate of in
crease in the appropriations is expected
not to exceed or per cent, the rate
maintained in other branches of the
postal service.
To extend the service $4,000 routes a
year until it becomes universal the re-
port says, will require such largely in
creased appropriations that the annual
postal deficits for the ensuing two or
three years will probably reach $S,ooo,ooo
or $4,000, ,ooo, if not more but once the
service is completed the additional
ItNGlluG uCIlNCu VIII SOOn ICuUCt tllC
deficits to present figures, il not entirely
wipe them out.
During the year 1902, I2,4o3 petitions
for the service were filed, making
total on July I last of 22,646, which ex-
ceeded by over 2ooo the total number
during the preceding four years. Since
July petitions received have averaged
over COO a month. With the amount re-
oured for routes to begin December I,
the entire appropriation has been alb
sorbed, leaving on December fully
100 routes for which there is no ap-
preparation available. This number
probably will be increased by January
to at least $500. Mr.. Wynnc and Mr.
Machen say that to comply with the de-
mands OF the people and Of members OF
Congress the department will require an
additional appropriation, otherwise fur
ther establishment OF the service will be
deferred until July next. If these adj
ditional funds are granted $1,000 rural
free delivery letter-carriers will be in
active service by May /.
