The correspondent of the Associated

miral, favors sending out the Baltic

the fleet will start this year.

of the Secretary of War and satls
fled that OfllCIRJ that his income is suf-
ficient to support himself and his fam-
lly. and that he Is entirely free from
debt. is the recommendation made by
Major Gen. Henry C. Corbin, com-
manding the Atlantic Division, and
which‘was announced at the War De-
partment yesterday. Gen. Corbin in
explanation, says
“Marriage ‘of army officers who
have 'made no proper provision for as-
suming the responsibility therefor 1s
hurtful both to the army and to the
oilicors themselves. To this broad
statement there are. of course, ell-
ceptions, but the general fact remainsl
that our army is overmarried.
"The pay of a subaliem ofilcer is
barely enough for his proper support
and the expense of his equipmentand
uniform. ,If to this is added the inevi-
table expenscs attached to a family
it Is not only probable but almost cer-
tain that when an officer strikes his
balance at. the end of the year he will
be behind if he had no income but his
and Japan is given as her destins- pay.
That a bachelor officer is more vnl- I
usblc to the service than a married!
ofiircr does not follow. nor do I wish
to be understood as no saying. but the
marrled oilicer is less valuable if in
marrying he has not exercised that
prudence which should govern all
mentions in life."
