CHINESE ARMY
EXISTS LARGELY
ON PAPERO ONLY

When so mach is raid ard written
and surmised about the Japanese gar
risons in China being strengthened in
the midst OF the diplomatic negotia-
tions at Picking, II may be interesting
to hear japanese authority on the
Question Of the Chinese army.
There are ~ divisions on paper
throughout the vast country, says he
to an interviewer. but Marking, for
instance, has only one, where three
are supposed TO exist, while four d.
visions in the Province Of Szechuan
are really no more than a division and
a fraction As a general statement
therefore, IL might be safely asserted
that the size OF the whole army is far
smaller than the number Of headquar-
tiers would suggest,
The organization or a division is
somewhat similar to that OF Japan,
but the horses are small and poor in
the cavalry, the instruments are in
adequate with the sappers, and the
commissariat troops are using anti
quated Chinese wagons Besides,
there being no bearer corps, when
one man is killed or wounded two men
have to carry him away, thus causing
the disappearance Of three soldiers in
each instance. III. ".-... 49,.
The two divisions OF guards station
ed in Chihli, however, are really the
picked forces with the newest pat
tern OF German arms and quite eff
cfent In every way Japanese soldiers
are supposed to be content with the
worst food in the world, but these
Chinese guards eat still eoarser Wit
uals and yet display a wonderful
amount Of courage and endurance.
Judged by what was seen in the
revolutionary war or in the case OF
the Shantung soldiers during the re-
cent Tsingtau campaign, even the reg
ular or newly trained troops are far
from being in good discipline. These
regulars carry up-to-date rifles, but
some sell cartridges while others "eat
or drink the breech." The irregular
tiles of the old-fashioned men can well
be imagined from this. But in spite of
this lack of discipline, the implicit
obedience of subordinates to superiors
is something remarkable. Gen. Tuan
Chijui's men were once distinguished
for their martial qualities, but when
the guiding spirit was gone we ceased
TO hear Of their valor. Gen. Chang
Hsun's troops are at present among
the best China can boast of, but once
deprived of the head they may lapse
into mediocrity or something worse

this problem will probably take some
time to reach. Figures already sub
mitted vary all the way from SC to
$25 week. with all sorts of sugges-
tlons FOR sums between these two ex-
tremes. In spite of the investig ga

cents day. SO is generally accepted
as an impossible minimum. But that
an individual. whether man or worl-
an cannot decently keep soul and
body together on less than S25 n
week seems to be equally faliacious.
The majority Of suggestions seem to
run between 80 and SIS week, and
1t has also been suggested rhaE in
stead Of blanket legislation 'or the
whole state, separate commissions in
different districts work out a mini
mum wage adapted to the con ,i,h.ns

may yet meet with approval. The

the fact that superintendent of one
of the rescue halls has flatly refused
to oney the order of the board OF
health to restrict the number OF men
received to the maximum provided by
the sanitary cone. He is on record
as saying that he will not turn any
man out into the cold even though
his refusal means his going to JAIL.
fhc basis upon which the board OF
nealth determines the number of ap-
plicants for any lodging house is the
requirement Of 400 cubic feet of air

cause it is like every other Judgment

At this time, however, the supreme
court refused to pass upon the mer-
its of the several important points

fact that the only specific question
at issue had been settled and that
such other points demanding judicn-
tion should be presented in the same
regular manner. The failure of the
supreme body to pass upon the legal

or letting them freeze. So great has
been the demand upon the city lodg-

that from two to three times the
number of men the law allows are be-
ing crowded into them. Four hum

explanation for the fact that these

the city lodging house a bath is in
