The amendment, which was defeated, provided that the govern- ment should divide its contracts for armor plate during the next 5 years among the three private armor man- utacturers and pay them the cost of production plus 6 per cent. The Connecticut senators voted against the Tillman bill Promotion of Oflice: Representative Tilson’s amendment to the Hay army reorganization bill, to provide new tem of promotion for army officers was rejected by the house of represental after some disct n. Mr. Wilson made a speech in favor of the proposition, which had many interruptions and was in part as follows T will say, Mr. Chairman, briefly, that this amendment simply provides that a man shall serve forr second lieutenant before he promoted to first lieuterant; must serve 12 years altu- before he can be a captain; later ves very as can be that he sether that n be a major; that he must serve i vears before he can be a licutenant colonel and 30 years before he can he a colonel. This would cure all the c isting defects, so far as promotion is concerned. Hereafter there would be no occasion for fights be- tween different arms of service, and I am quite sure the combined arms would be in better situation to fight the enemy. We have had this situation pre- ed to the Committee on Military We have had one arm of the service come to us, presenting their case and showing how necessary it was that their arm should be creased, incidentally giving them considerable promotion when the in- crease was granted. The next con- gress would see another arm of the service come in presenting their cas and using the better uvat.on of the increased arm as an instance of need in- in- POPOOOOOPOOOOS SEOOOICHOOS How To Get Rid of a 3 Bad Cough | like the rest of us, with all the w A Home-Made Remedy that Will Do It Quickly.

T may say that the pressire has not come from officers for promotion. but for an increase in their particular arm of the service. The fact is, however, that increas make vacancies, and, incies make promotions. 3 plan I have proposed here they wiil not be looking for dead men’s shocs or vacancies at all. An officer will Be required to serve a fixed number of years faithfully and then pass the required examination before he n be promoted.

In the artillery arm of the service men will be promoted to high rank after very short service, whereas In the infantry, and especially so in th cavalry, men of long service will still be serving in the lower grade.

It would still be by length of service, whereas now it is simply by seniority and a vacancy. 1t would promote a few extra offi- cers, especially in the infantry and cavalry, who have not received very much promotion recently. It would promote a few extra officers. who of could be put on the extra officers and he assigned to the National Guard, and so list of schools, forth. So, gentlemen of the house, this is my proposition. By it we shall get rid of this trouhlesome question of promotion once and for all.
