ARMY IS MARCHING
FIRST TIssE SINCE CLOSE OF THE
 wAR.
Entire Organization is Proceeding on Foot or on Horseback to the Seven Msnouver Camps
 for Practice.

Washingtcn, July 2s-without st- fraeting much attention, probably be- cause the movement is general ant covers a wide extent of territory, for the first time since the Civil War al- most the entire army of the United States Is on the march.
 Frequently large bodies of troops have been moved in this way and dur Ing the Spanish War the entire army was moved. but in that case nearly all the mer were entrained.
 Tn the present case they are march, ing afoot and on horseback from the various posts and concentrating at the seven big maneuver camps where the regulars and militiamcn are to train together.
 officers at headquarters are not sur prised to learn that the men are suf- fering some from the hardships of the march: that many drop out from heat and fatigue, and that there has been considerable loss of horse flesh. Tho fact is, as stated by General Oliver, the acting Secretary of War. and himself a veteran, that the men have become soft from post life.
 Foreign observers of the famous in- -ternational campaign in China noted with surprise the recklessness with which the American soldiers tossed away their blankets and knapsacks and other articles If clothing on the fa- nous march from Tien Tsin to Picking The reason was that the American sol dier had been unused to carrying any baggage. he had left all that to the quartermaster's wagons. Now all this Is to be changed and the regular sol diers is to be trained. like the Eu- ropean soldier, to carly all of h.s nec- essaries throughout tine days march.
 It is true his pack will not be as heavy as the forty pound kit carried by the European soldier. although he is physically quite as able to bear 1t. but he is not so he allowed to discard his blanket or his half of the shelter tent, or his rations and toilet articles and ammunition as he has done in the y,oa af
