Due to Brutality in the Army.

Berlin. Oct S.-A military journal says
that 1900 young men, eligible for military
service, who have not reported for en-
iistment this year, have been sentenced
in contumacy. 1t is presumed they are out
of the country. This number is more than
twice many as usual. The military
paper does not give any reason for this
extraordinary desertion; but 1t is proba-
bly, due to the frequent publication of in
icidents of the brutality of non-commis-
stoned officers and others towards pri-
Yates in the army.
