Washington,' November l.-The re
quest' of the iFirst Colorado infantry
to be returned' from .Manila' to the
United - States cannot be granted by
-the war department. It was stated
by officers of the army today that such
' requests had been frequent fron, sol
diers of volunteer organization? who
enlisted to fight, but did not enlist, for
garrison duty The desire of this regi
sment to return "home was: simply the
desire of other volunteers. , -Nothing
could be 4one -an officer said until
congress met and provided sorrpe kind
of a force to take the place of H'olun
tee'rs. Thei subject of reorganizing the
array' with! a view to securingi,n ac
tual force for-' the new possessions of
the United jstates has, already received
the serious consideration of". the presi
dent, the secretary of war and tticera
of the army. ; - ..
The president will make recommen
dations to congress on this su,bjU-t em
bodying his views and the viws of
those who iare in position to give him
the very best! advice. ! It is; probable
that he wll lrecommendj an: Increase
of the army to something) like 100,000
men, although this is not certain",! and
he may think! that 75,000 is enough.
' There has been some talk also ' of
nsins- for carrison dutv two fomiianies.
or a battalion'of natives to eadhl regi
ment doing gjarrison duty in Cuba,'
Porto Rico- arid, the Philippines It is
believed by this method a considera
ble, portion f the restless population
of the .island and-especially thop who
have been (bearing arms in the psur
gent or Spanish armies could by kept
quiet and law-abiding. . ' , -
It is stated by officers of th army
that the . duties devolving uwi the
troops under the new order of things
cannot -be I satisfactory to volunteers
and that ap. ajrmy will j have to pro

without complaints 16 f any .kind., t Men
who enlist -in ! the regular, army here
after will understand that they are
likely to be called upon -at any time
to go -out of the country and to garri

is, believed that- the demands which
have been made upon senators 4 and
representatives, for the muster out of
