pay of Japanese Oncers.

Considering the extremely low cost of living in Japan. as compared with the United States, the pay of Japanese army and navy officers seems fairly liberal. The pay of Japanese officers, according to a translation from the Japanese Year Book. published in The Boston Transcript, is as follows:
 The commanding General of army, when serving with the colors. is given a salary of $1,50O and a commission for extraordinary expenses of an equal amount. This brings his pay up to $3.000 a year. In the same way a lieutenant general receives $2,000, a major general $f.575. colonel $1,176, a major $612 and a captain $420. The salary given to officers in the navy cor responds closely to that paid to those serving in the army; Admiral Togo's salary is $S,000 a year; -admirals are paid $2.OOO, rear admirals S1,65O, and captains SPAS. Tho pay of the junior lieutenants is $500 and that of the midshipmen $222.

Cost of Artnlery


 Iny his hearing before the House Mil- itary Committee General Murray. Chief of Artillery, showed the committee how to save some of the governments hard earned dollars by concentrating the artillerymen in barracks and. quarters at one or two main posts at each fcrti- fled harbor and at, the others merely placing detachmepts of Artillery, car- ing for them as sub-posts. The ad- ministration of a one-company post costs $26.000; that of a two-company post, 39,3o0; three, s43,00Q; five, $6O.- BOO; six. $65.500: seven, y70oo0 or a saving in the last instance of $112,000 General Murray said:
 We now have but 3s per cent of one manning detail on the guns mounted in the United States. Under the concen- tration scheme we would have from 55 per cent to 70 per cent at the~ main posts and small detachments only at sub-posts. Our field officers will have suitable commands at the main posts, and can exercise their commands as in action. This means an increase in ef- ficiency as well as in economy"
 The cost of the new construction re- quired is s600,oo0 for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts and $700.000 for the Pa cific coast. not including Galveston and San Francisco. The work at these places will involve the building of 6 four r-company post at Fort San Ja- cinto and twelve company post at Fort Winfield Scott. In the concen- tration scheme there will be but thirty posts.

PIC IRON MARKET
EVERY EFFORT TO MOVE OUT THE
 PRODUCT.
There h More of the Mineral To Be Seen Tn Furnace Yards Than
 In Many Years.

Birmingham, Jan. I3(-Special.)-- Every effort of the Alabama pig iron manufacturers is being exerted in the direction of moving out their product. Even with a little improvement noted in the railroad car situation, 1t is evi- dent already that not one half of the accumulated iron in this State will be removed when the month will have rolled by. The consumers are in need of the iron and the advance of twen- ty-five cents per ton will go into effect on all shipments after February 1, the protests of the manufacturers notwith- standing.
 There is more iron to be seen on fur e yards in this State right now, than at any time in the past five years. The make at present shows no increase nor decrease as yet for the year. though 1t is given out that in the next few weeks new furnaces will be blown in one by one. The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company will blow in their little Belle furnace at Bessemer in the next few days.
 Two other furnaces will be ready for the torch by the end of the month. As the work is being pushed on furnaces preparations are being made to in- crease the raw material supply. It is believed that if the transportation fa- cilities will only keep on improving | the bins at furnaces can be kept well filled from time to time This has | been one of the obstacles, as well as other things.
 The demand for pig iron is quite healthy. delivery during the last half Iof the year. at that. The prices are better right now than they have been at any time In many years when 1t Is considered that the product Is selling six and nine months ahead of time. l With such long time given for de- livery, the quotations were never more favorable than they are now. No l foundry iron the usual basis. Is selling at $1S.50 and S19 per ton. delivery dur ing the last half of the year., There is good profit at that price, though la-
 Dor and the general cost of manufac- l turing is higher now than 1t has been in years. For delivery during the sec- ond quarter of this year No. foun- dry iron is being quoted and sales are being made at s21 and s22 per ton Spot iron. that desired during the first quarter can hardly be secured al $23,50 to $24.50 per ton.
 The only hesitation towards ack- nowledging that the iron mart is a! strong as could be desired Is In tht transportation facilities. The railroad
 officials are making promises of giv' ing relief and indications show tAa
 they are in earnest In their promise lt6
 do all they can in moving out the pro
 duct.
 There Is absolutely no indication
 that the iron mart is going to mee
 with any serious break at any tim' this year. The sales are covering thu probable make for months and month!
 ahead and still there is strong in
 quiry showing that the consumption Il
 not going to hold up any in the nea
 future.

The War Department will promuigate this month as an amendment to the army regulations certain very import ant amendments to the regulations for the government of the organized mill tia. As result of two years experi- ence at the War Department with af- fairs pertaining to the militia, Assist ant Secretary of War Oliver has pre- pared the new regulations. which will be found of the utmost importance by all militia organizations. With regard to the arming of the militia with the new type of Springfield magazine rifle, Assistant Secretary of War Oliver has recommended to the House Committee on Military Affairs that the following provision be incorporated in the forth coming appropriation bill;
 '1t shall be the duty of the Secretary of War whenever a new type of small arm shall have been adopted for the use of the regular army, and when a sufficient quantity of such arms shall have been manufactured to constitute, iii his discretion, an adequate reserve for the armament of any regular and volunteer forces. that it may be found necessary to raise in case of war, to cause the organized militia of the United States to be furnished with small arms of the type so adopted, with Dayonets ana the necessary accoutre- ments and equipments, including ann intuition therefor at the rate of twen- ty rounds of ball cartridges for each small arm so issued to the militia; pro- vided, that such issue shall be made in the manner provided in Section 13 of the act approved Jan. 21, 1903. en- titled An act to promote the efficiency of the militia. and for other purposes; provided, also. that to provide means to carry into effect the provisions of this act the necessary money to cover the cost of exchanging or issuing the new arms. accoutrements, equipments and ammunition, to be exchanged or is- sued hereunder Is hereby appropriated out of any moneys in the treasury not otherwise appropriated

Guard at Inausaration.

The Alabama National Guard will pc here in large numbers today to do honor to Governor r-elect B. B. Conner. the Commander-in-C Chief for the next four years. There will be nearly fif- teen hundred guardsmen here, and it is safe to say their soidierly bearing, splendid appearance and general con- duct will reflect credit upon the or ganization. It is the only time the troops of the militia will have an op- portunity to meet together outside the annual encampments, and they are al- ways eager to avail themselves of the privilege attending an inauguration
 It might be much better if such oc- casions would occur oftener and the boys brought into personal intercourse more frequently, as it would tend to strengthen the ties of fellowship and do more to hold the organization to- gether. After greeting the new Com mander-in- Chief, there is a new Adju- tant- General to be greeted and 1t is hoped and expected that he will have the interest of the Guard at heart and will labor for the advancement and progress of the organization. It is un- derstood Hon. Bibb Graves of Mont gomery is to be appointed, and that he will fill the position acceptably and with credit to himself and the militia no one doubts.
