A LARGER GERMAN ARMY,
Plans to Organize Two New Corps Costing
Yearly 100000.

Berlin, Aug 1S.-There seems to be no doubt
that the government. under the impulse of the
Emperor is determined to ask the Reichstag
for an increase in the permanent military estab-
lshment, by about $4,000 men, to be organized
into two army corps, thus raising the standing
army to about $4,000 officers and men. The
increased annual charge is estimated at $1,000
GOO 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
tablishment Nearly 100000 men. morally and
physically fit for service, reach the military age
yearly who are not taken into the standing army
because of legal limitations. Although these men
who are shut out by lot from the regular service
undergo short periods of drill in the reserve,
they are regarded by the military administra
ton as being unequal to the two-year service
unit
The general staff. therefore asserts that since
the national finances are able to bear the eX-
pense portion al least OF these 100000 capable
men must receive full training. or else the En-
pire Will not be fully prepared. 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 combina-
tion against her makes it their duty TO utilize
all means of defence and that even then the
army. numerically, will be half a million be-
hind that of Russia on a peace footing.
1t is affirmed that the proposed increase has
nothing to do with the present position of for
eigu questions.
