Second Edition.

THE ENGLISH ARMY AND NAVY.

ALLEGED CORRUPTION AND^ -: INEFFICIENCY.

A SCATHING SPEECH.

London, June 5.

A great sensation has been caused by; the speech of Lord- Randolph Churchill, in which he unsparingly attacked the adminis tration of the English army and navy.

He asserted that the expenditure was annually increasing without a corresponding increase in effectiveness, and millions were wasted every year in the most wanton manner through tho utter incapacity of tho officials and tho grossest mismanagement.

In 1575 tlio army cost fourteen millions and a-half, while' in 1886 tho amount had swo'len to eight-Oil and a-half millions.

Tho naval expenditure had increased from eleven millions in 1575 to twelve and a half last year.

These onormous increases had been ac companied by a steady deterioration .in lighting capacity.

The English army only mustered 130,000 men. Germany and France, by an expend iture of twenty-one and twcnty-nhie mil lions respectively, were able to maintain a force of ono and a-half million of soldiers in an equal state of effctivonss.

The armaments of tho fortresses of Eng land wero not to bo depended on. Doth cannon and ships were behind the age.

Tho commissiariat was faulty, and in capacity was rampant everywhere. As an instance, he cited the scandalous offer of oillcials to protect an important position of King George's Sound witli obsolete muzzle loaders.

Ey making a thorough revolution in the personnel of the army and navy depart. ment, is would be possible to eil'ect a saving of a million annually, and at tlie samo time secure improvement in both branches of the service.

Lord Randolph Churchill, in the course of a recent address, touched on the prevailing commercial depression in Great Britain, and contended that tho State should contribute towards the alleviation of national distress.

Mr Robert Badger still remains weak. He is certainly gaining strength, but hi- medi cal attendant has advised that he must withdraw entirely from business in oicler that hi* mind may have perfect refrt. At Mr Badger's wish hia creditor held a meeting last Friday, when it was decided that it would be advisable under the circumstances, to wind up tho business us soon a. possible. By those means Mr Badger's mind will be relieved from any responsibility in that direc tion, and probably hig recovery to mental strength may bo. accelerated. Ho far lie has been unable to thoroughly ex plain matters connected with the supposed robbery.
