BRITISH ARMY REFORMS.
Present System of instruction for Off
GERS Condemned.


London, May 22.-The Globe says X
understands the report of the commit
tee recently appointed TO look into the
question of the education of army off,
GERS which will shortly be issued, is a
scathing condemnation of the present
system of instruction, which, it says,
must be sweepingly remodeled.
The document the Globe says, speaks
the truth fearlessly in regard TO the ex-
amina lions. Courses at Woolwich and
Sandhurst are to be retained subject to
exhaustive changes. There is to be one
examination only of all candidates,
whether for admission to Woolwich,
Sandhurst or the militia. Fewer sub
jects will be taken. History and math-
enatics with French or German, will
be compulsory studies. Latin or ex-
detrimental science Will also be COM
pulsory. Only one voluntary subject
will be allowed-Greek, higher mathe-
mates or some subject not mentioned
above. Fifty commissions will be al
loted every year to colonial and 100 to
university candidates.
The Globe adds that many cavalry
officers can not write decent letter,
and their scouting reports have led
whole regiments into trouble. In fu-
ture it must be possible for a cadet
from one of. the military colleges to join
a cavalry regiment on an income of
6 200 year.
. AS matters stand at present no Off
Ger In such a regiment can support
himself and maintain his personal stat
us, unless he commands large private
income The existing system under
which cavalry officers are virtually
compelled to keep polo ponies for inter-
regimental games will be prohibited
and the practices OF keeping regiment
al coaches and packs of hounds are to
be abolished.
According to the report of the COM
mittee cavalry commission must be
regarded as prize for smart men and

is possible to get either money or
brains.
The Globe says an Inspector general
of military education must be appoint
ed and the allowance in the army esti-
mates for military education must be
increased. The report, according to the
same authority. seeks to insure promo
tion by merit and not by interest IN
high quarters, especially by the inter
est of women whose interference IN
these matters created something APP
