PROMOTIONS IN THE ARMY.
One Major General and Several Brig
adiers to Be Named,

Among the important military questions
to engage the early attention Of Presi-
dent Taft and Secretary Dickinson Is the
appointment Of =. major general on the
retirement OF Gen. w. p. Duvall in jan
uary, and the appointment Of five brig
adiers occurring at various times from
December 81 to March 10. It 10 rumored
that Brig. Gen. Arthur Murray. chief of
Coast Artillery, may became . major gen
eral, and that the first brigadiership will
be filled by the promotion Of Col e. M.
Weaver. also OF the Coast Artillery Corps,
chief of the militia division. The army
is especially interested in the new ap-
pointments as showing whether there
win be continuance Of the policy of
having appointments of bri&adiers dis
tributed among officers of the infantry.
cavalry and coast and field artillery,
based on the relative strength Of the
commissioned personnel.
Another important question from q, mill
tary standpoint is the proposed modifica-
ton of the pending bill. which aims to
increase the commissioned personnel by
612 officers. 1t is hoped to improve the
chances Of action by Congress by amend
ing the bill so as to provide $50 officers
for duty with the militia. The bill, as
originally drafted, contemplated ninety
officers for that purpose. The idea is that
the proposed legislation will allow Of
ficers to be placed on detached duty, and
SO create an equivalent number of va
cancies in the army to be filled partly
from civil life
