specjaI Cable TO The Tribune.

Special Cable to The Tribune.
LONDON, Feb. 17.-Owing TO the In
crease of motor traffic, the army veter'
mary. dopa artmeut is finding easine
difficulty in It's cndeavors to secure an
efficient reserve of horses suitable for
military and transport use in the event
Of breaking out.
Officers of the army veterinary dc
partment make periodical visits TO all
the principal contractors for The pur,
pose of asccrtaining the numbers OF
horses fit for service III their stables
Such visit was made few days ago
TO ono wcll-kuown contractor who, be-
sides having deposits in London and
Paris. is promineut buyer of horses
both in England and on the continent
A few wears ago this contractor reg
uIsrly had in his stables horses tp tho
number of 600 or 500. but at present
he has only between 200 and 300, the
latter number being the maximum ever
attained at one time. -.
On this occasion the officer asked
how many horses the contractor had
which would he fit and suitable Tor
service if required. and tho contractor
replied: "Little more than dozen.
The contractor referred TO supphed
several nnnoTcus OF Hoi Scs u" ,"S n"
office at the time of tho South Afri-
can war. Interviewed, the contractor
said that be learned that the army
veterinary department was cxpeIenc'
irr the same difficulty in all the large
stables in England. Never, be re-
marked. was England so badly off Tor
good horses, and he could not even get
them himself, for they wero not to be
obtained In sufficient numbers any
where in the country and most of the
best horses we're being shipped abroad.
He referred to the fact that, owing to
the advance of motor traction, praetl-
cally all the tramcar and omnibus
horses had disappeared. and remarked
that in the event Of war, owing to the
enormous depletion OF the sources of
supply, the government would be IN
great difficulty.
