Arthur L. Wagner of the general staff
arrived at the post yesterday and will
spend several days inspecting the
workings of the school of application.
Colonel Wagner, who has acted as
chief umpire in the great maneuvers
of the last two years, is on a tour of
inspection of all the army service
schools. He arrived here direct from
Washington and will go eastward by
slow stages. His first stop will be
Fort Leavenworth.

of his time on inspection tour, which
will be devoted solely to seeing how
the new method of practical and the
oretical instruction of officers and
men is progressing. General Burton s
next stop will be Fort Leavenworth.
