FOREIGNERS MUST FIGHT WITH BULGARIANS
Military Obligatory and the Fighting Strength Nearly
800 900 Men. Armed With Rifles and
Field O Modern Make.

The artillery consists Of six regi-
ments of nine batteries each, giving a
total of 324 field guns, nine six gun
mountain batteries, three battalions of
garrison artillery of five companies
each and five howitzer batteries. The
war strength of field battery is CIV
en- as five officers, 1872 noncommissioned
officers and men and 159 horses, but
details are lacking with regard to the
war strength of the mountain and how
itzer batteries and garrison artillery
companies.
The field gun is a fifteen FOUNDER
breech loading Krupp gun of 3.42 inch
caliber, dating from 1875, with muz-
Zle velocity of 1852 feet seconds and
a maximum range of 1900 yards. With
in the last two years, however, the gov
eminent has placed orders abroad for
up to date equipment, its intention be-
ing to rearm the field and mountain
batteries with 2.95 quick firing Creusot-
Canet guns, throwing respectively a
fourteen and a seven pound projectile,
and to give the new hoWitzer batteries
Al inch breech loading Krupp ordnance
of the 1894 pattern. At present the
mountain batteries have a seven pound
er breech loading Krupp gun. The re-
cent orders also include twenty-four
Al inch quick firing Canet guns, mount
ed on mobile travelling carriages. and
twenty-four SO inch Canet field NOR
tars. 1t is understood that several bat
teries of the new quick firing field and
mountain equipment have already been
delivered.
The reserve army comprises twelve
reserve regiments of infantry of five
companies each, the fifth company be-
ing for frontier duty, and four compa-
MES which are mere cadres and six re-
serve divisions of field artillery, provid-
ing eighteen batteries. In time OF
peace the cadres for the reserve army
muster only 5000 men. who are officer
ed mainly by eX-noncommissioned Of
ticers of the field army The militia
bans, which have no cadres in peace
time, mobilize only in infantry bat
talions.
On mobilization the field army will
consist of six infantry and one cavalry
divisions Each infantry division will
comprise two brigades, each of twelve
battalions- that is. eight of the active
and four of the reserve army. The
mobilization of the first line will be
aole TO be completed in ten days and
will place IA battalions. each 1000
strong. in the field.
Finally. should Bulgaria be threaten
ed with invasion, it is estimated that
the mobilization of the reserve army
and the two militia bans would give
the principality a grand armed strength
of 5.431 officers. 290,677 noncommis-
stoned officers and men, ATTIC horses
and 486 guns.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1903-12-23

The Bulgarian army may be regard
ed as one of the best organized and
most efficient among those of the sec
ond rate powers, and its rank and
file, at least, is considered by experts
to be superior to that of any other
Balkan state, says the Chicago Trib-
une. The Bulgarian army is, however,
OF comparatively recent origin, in that
it sprang from the battalions of Bull
Qarian volunteers which were organ
ICED in 1877 by the Russian staff and
,co-operated with the Russian army dur
ing the campaign of 1877-7S. Military
service is obligatory in Bulgaria and
even extends to all foreigners who
have been resident in the country for
a period of three years.
The Bulgarian forces consist of the
active or field army, divided into the
active army and the active army re-
serve, the reserve army and the militia,
comprising two bans. In time of peace
the active army. but not its reserve, is
on a permanent footing, and the re-
serve army has permanent cadres,
while the two bans of the militia have
neither a permanent footing nor ca
dres: for no actual service or training
of the men of the two bans takes place
except in time of war. The first ban
of the militia may be used exception
ally to strengthen the field and re-
serve armies. but the second ban can
only be employed for home defense.
The composition of the field army is
as follows: The infantry, 'pekhOta,
number twenty-four regiments, each OF
which has a peace establishment OF
two battalions and a small transport
SQUAD and a war establishment of four
fbattalions and one transport company.
Each battalion consists of four COM
,Danies, whose war strength is three or"
.icers and 265 noncommissioned officers
and men. They are armed with the
BIS inch Mannlicher magazine rifle
and a short bayonet Of the 1898 pat
tern. This rife gives an initial veloci-
fy of 2,O43 feet seconds and is sighted
up to 2.133 yards, while the magazine
holds FIVE cartridges, which are charged
by means of clip.
The cavalry, which was recognized
in 1901, now comprises the princes
bodyguard of one squadron; four regj-
ments, each of four squadrons, and six
regiments. each of two squadrons. The
life guard squadron is always kept at
war strength, even with regard to
horses. and numbers fourteen officers
off
men. The peace footing of the remain
ing squadrons consists of five officers
1877 commissioned officers and men
and 100 horses. which in time Of war
lis increased to 1913 noncommissioned
officers and men and 164 horses. The
cavalry is armed with Mannlicher car
Dimes of the 1895 pattern and sword.
