This conviction has grown largely az Tue

MONKS TO BE "BOY SCOUTS"

Said To Be Too Attractive.

organ of the War Office. monks are to be
trained es hoy scouts" so as 20 replace
the Sisters of Mercy who generally ac-
company the Russian armies 10 the front.
During the Russo-Japanese war there was
q general complaint that the Sisters OF
Mercy proved far too attractive 10 the
officers and the medical staff Indeed, fir
tstions and courtship took up too much
time I'm the field hospitals, and duels were
rot infrequent. SO the Minister of War,
General Sookomlikof. Is strongly I'm favor
Of replacing them by monks from the varl-
Gus monasteries.
And. as the monks are essentially peace
ful. and might fight shy of the troubles
of war unless they are drilled beforehand,
The minister has decided TO form them
into 'snonasterial battalions' and train
them betines 10 bear arms If need be. The
"Eusskoe Invalid" believes that the move
cent will succeed just as well as the scout
Sattalions recently formed in the synodal
schools
General Sookoinlikof has warmly sup
I.crtad the boy scout movement; his many
military officials are decryng II as dan
eorous one. They fear that i'm few years
the lads who are now loyal will become
revoIutionaries as soon rs they go 10 the
universities, and will use their military
knowledge against the state. They point
out that the barricades Of Moscow were

dents did not know how 10 use the can

NEW FRENCH ARMY CHIEF.
General Joffre Said To Be a Man
of the Mcclellan Type.
ADMIRABLE AS ORGANIZER
All Critics Agree That Creation
of New Post Adds to Mill

fRv Cable IA The Tribune. !

Paris. July 29.--The reorganization oil
the chief command OF the French army
In the event of war Is regarded by COM
petent and impartial military observers
here as a great and necessary improve
ment, imparting unity OF preparation
and direction, and particularly I'M
portant because tho new arrangement
avoids friction between the commander
I'm chief or the "chief of general staff OF
the army" and the administrative bu-
rcaus Of the Ministry OF War, which re-
main under the control Of "thc chief OF

The now chief of general staff Of the
army, General Jonfre, who would cxer-
else supreme command I'm case Of war, Is
one Of the youngest officers Of his grade
i'm the army, having been born In 80
He is an excellent organizer, especially
competent I'm everything pertaining 10
military railroads, and is q most scien-
t,fic engineer officer. In short, he ~
general of the Mcclellan type rather
than a Grant or n Sherman.
in military circles General Pau seems
TO enjoy great prestige as of tho highest

field. but according TO the best informa-
ton General Pau insisted on the right IN

groups of army corps as well as COM
manders of army corps and CHIEFS OF
staff.
Were such powers too great to he IN
trusted to one man? The appointment
Of General JolfrG instead of General Pau
seems to indicate that the government
after considering the matter answered
this question affirmatively.
A military critic in the Echo dc
Paris" which is the unofficial organ oil

that While the new commander in chlei
| IL an admirable organizer, his actual OK
perience I'm command of large bodies OF

All critics agree, however, that In

title. adds greatly to the efficiency Of the
