(. .s
BERLIN, Aug. 1S.-There seems to be
no doubt that the government, under tho
impulse OF the Emperor. is determined
to ask the Reichstag for an increase IN
the permanent military establishment by
about $4,000 men,. to be organized into
two army corps, thus raising the stand
Ing army to about 647,0oo officers and
men. The increased annual charge Is
estimated at 100000, exclusive OF
equipment.
The first consideration leading the
government to propose what is certain
to be an unpopular measure Is that the
military resources Of the country are not
fully utilized by the existing establish
ment. Nearly 100000 n,dn, morally and
physically At for service, reach the mill
tary age yearly who are not taken into
the standing army because OF legal lirni-
tatlons. The general staff asserts that
since the national finances are able to
bear the expenses a portion at least Of
these 100000 capable men must receive
full training. or else. the empire will not
be in state Of full preparedness. The
general staff Is said to have represented
to His Majesty that Germany's position,
In the middle OF Europe. with all the
possibilities Of a combination 4 against

Tho body was partly stripped OF clothing
The abdomen was slashed open. and the

All the wounds had apparently been made
with some very sharp instrument. Al-G

thought OF his absence at frst, but when
he did not return for supper search
was begun that ended with the identnca-a

1t Is evident that tho murder was not
committed near where the body was

to the lot where 1t was found. The po-
