The house reduced that estimate to 150,000 men, and sent the bill to the senate. Already the secretary has informed the members of j the senate committee on military af j fairs that he must have 175,000 men to maintain the army at a decent proportion even in time of peace. He j contends that with 150,000 lie would ! have a force of only 70.000 effective; fighting men. There is very little doubt but that the senate will act in accordance with I the request of the secretary. There ! 1 J will be a very warm debate in con- j ! ference.
