This | bill provides for an army of the maximum strength of 100,000 men, with a minimum | 50,000, and general officers at the rate of one brigadier general for each 4000 men, with major generals in proportion. Chatr- | ure one bill prepared, and if any staff changes are contemplated they will be incumo-; rated in that measure. | The members of the committee probably will confer with Sccretary Root in a day or two.

With the maximum army there is to be 150 men to each infantry company. making 1830 men to a regiment. The maximum of cavalry troops is to be 100 men. There is in the War Department bill, but under the n eneral com- manding would have the rank of lieuten- ant general. The War Department bill does not give the same increase of major generals and brigadier generals as the Hull bill, The detailed staff provisions are an im- portant feature of the measure.
