DIRECTIONS FROM THE RANKS LAST YEAR WERE LOWEST
 SINCE 1899.
3,464, OR 3.66 PER CENT
AdJt.-Gen. AlnsWorth Says Good Show ing Is Attributed to Punishment Actual Numerical Strength
 of the Army.

Washington, Nov 1S.-'rhe number of assertions of the enlisted strength of the army of the United States dur ing the last fiscal year was materially less than the record of any year since 1899, according to the report of Adjt.- Gen. Ainsworth, which has been pre- sented to the secretary of war The official returns to the adiutant eener- afs office showed 3.464 deser,ions last year, or 3.66 per cent of the total number of enlisted men in the ser vice or of enlistment contracts in force during the year. This was a de crease as compared with the preced- ing fiscal year, when assertions con- stituted 4.97 per cent of the total en- listed force.
 Last years record eclipses the showing of every year since 1899, for which the percentage of assertions was only 322, while in 1898 they were 1.57.
 The gratifying reduction in the de- sertion ratio is ascribed by Gen. Aims worth to the continuance of system attic and vigorous efforts to punish de- serters. Of the white troops, - per ! cent, and the colOred soldiers. only 1.S5 per cent were reported as desert CTS.
 Punishment Is Urged.
 Gen. Ainsworth urges the pursuit and punishment of deserters, not for the corrective effect such action may have upon the deserters themselves, but for the deterrent effect upon oth- CTS, and from this point of view he urges the individuality of restoring apprehended or surrendered deserters i to duty and to a status of honor in the army.
 | In regard to the actual strength of the army on October 15. 1910, the re- port shows that there were 4,310 off cers and G7.459 enlis ed men in the regular army, and 166 officers and | 5.100 enlisted men in the Philippine | scouts. making total of 4,476 officers | and 72,559 enlisted men. not including corps.
 By order of the president the maxi mum enlisted strength of the military establishment, incluNng the Philip pine scouts and the hospital corps during the current fiscal year can not exceed S0000. The, reduction neces sary to comply with this order has been accomplished, Gen. Ainsworth says, by leaving vacancies unified.
 There were 1922 officers of the army on the retired list October 15 1910. Of these, 326 served in the army. navy or marine corps during the civil war.
