by Organizing New Forces.
The London Times' correspondent at
Tokio sends the following cable des-
patch :—It is believed that next year's
budget provides for extensive changes
in the Japanese army. First, the garrio
sons in Manchuria and Corea, now coni-
prieing four divisions, will be reduced
to one division each, drafted from the
home divisions, instead of being special
corps. Secondly, the saving thus effec-
ted will be employed in furnishing six
new divisions for the home estublish-
ment, whereby the strength of the army
will become nineteen divisions. This
signifies an increase of nearly 50 per
cert!. Thirdly, three special forces will
be organized, namely, heavy field artil-
lery, quick -tiring field artillery nml
cavalry, all horsed with the best cattle.
Fourthly, the work of rearmament and

ments. There will be no new taxes and

programme was subject to much dis-
cussion in the Cabinet. The Minister 9.

country depended on the execution on
