It was the first time an American army had passed in review under its new organization, and the display was & most imposing one. Marching in line of platoons means moving for- ward with four platoons abreast, each | platoon being formed in columns of fours. The space between the platoons Leing considerable, the head and front of the marching column are ful- ly two hundred feet wide. Each of the four platoons in a com- pany seemed full size companies un- Qer the old order of things in the American army. At the head of each regiment was a band playing regimen- tal marches, one of which, called ““Happy Heinie”, had a distinct smat- | tering of Teutonic tones, much to the amusement of French military officers. An amusing incident of the review s the first appearance in line of new machine guns, which are carried on small carts instead of pack mules as formerly. Each cart is drawn by a mule driven by a soldier. had a short but extremely interesting time training the mules. These little French vehicle mules being used to working in Jdouble rather protested against single harness. The result has | been that during the past week stray mtules have been encountered here and there about the camp with bits of carts and harness hanging about ther, necks. Even today some of the mules are inclined to be a bit playful, one dash- ing out of the line just as he was pass- ing the general. After a brief tour of a column in a wrong direction he de- cided to be good and the laughing driver put him in his proper place again. The mules drew the carts by the reviewing party in a gallop which rather recalled clowr races at a circus The carts are so small and the drivers so large and all wielding long, crack- | ing whips. As the marching troops reached a point some djstance beyond the re- viewing party they reformed into col- | umns of fours and thus stretched out, they found their way along curving and descending roads. The brown mass seemed to pass as far as the eye could see. While the review was held at a point so remote that only persons attached to<we army organization were permit- ted to see it, moving pictures were made both by French and American | operators in order that the people | through France and America can get an idea themselves of the impressive appearance the troops made when first assembled. It v difficult to | realize that they are the same men who landed in France a few weeks ago. with years of train- &ibert Proud of His Men. In telling of his pride in his com- ! mand Major General Sibert said: “] am particularly proud of the | showing the men made today, for they were not parading before admiring erowds either of home folks or foreign friends. It was merely a military maneuver for them and they did it splendidly. #T was surprised at their facility at fleld maneuvers, considering the fact that since they have been here their training consisted almost wholly of | the technical side of trench warfare, -vith all the new paraphernalia of of- ve and defensive tactics. During {heir spare time away from trench they have been drilled in o order tictics, but today had the opportunity to show what they could 1o in the field. The result was most ratifying and encouraging.” The place and hour of the were not disclosed until the day ore. “Wag this to avoid a possible visit rom a hostile airplanc?” a young of- ed. A AM ] can say to that,”” he answered is that T wish old brother Boche oula have seen that show today. It vould have given him a new Tespect T America's cffort.” ‘eral officers commented on the that never hefore had the . at- review be- I tempted | 3. Tryon nickname of “Sammy”* seemed so insane and unsuited to the American troops, as when, stalwart, bronzed and splendid in every way, they marched by in salute of Major General Sibert yesterday.

CHANGES Sergeant Bamforth May Be Promoted t6 Lieutenant and Sergeant Hart Placed in Charge of Detective Bu- reau, According to apparently authorita- tive information several important changes may shortly be expected in the personnel of the police depart- ment. Although the report handed out hy the clerk of the police board fallowing the last secret meeting made absolutely no mention of the fact, It is understood that considerable time was spent by the commissioners in talking over these proposed changes. It is said that the police board is now in favor of placing Sergeant Wil- liam C. Hart in charge of the detec- tive bureau and ta promote Detective Sergeant Samuel Bamforth to a new position of lieutenant. It is also un- derstood that the board contemplates the appointment of two new ser- geants, the names of Detective An- drew J. Richardson and Traffic Ofi- cer A. E. Atwater being prominently mentioned for the positions. Should Detective Sergeant Bamforth be promoted to lieutenant it is under- stood that he woud be given the night shift in charge of police head- | quarters, while Captain Grace would probably be on duty from 4 p. m. until midnight. There wauld also be an increase in salary for the incumbent, and while no provision has been made for this it is believed that there has been a sufficient amount saved to pro- vide for it. Whether Detective Rich- ardson would remain as a detective sergeant or be a street sergeant has not been hinted, bhut it is believed that he would retain his present status, INCREASE IN ENGLISH WHEAT Premier Lloyd George Says Supply in Country Is Now 212,500,000 Pounds —Oats and Barley Go Up.
