The Commander-in-Chief of the Japanese- army is bis Royal Highness General Prince Arisegawa, an uncle of the Emperor. He is President of the General Bureau of State (Sambo Hambu), which answers to our Ministry of War. While the Minister of War collects and organises the troops, the Commander-in-Chief leads and directs them. For military purposes Japan is divided into seven districts, in each of which is stationed one division of the army ander the command of a General.
The practical result of the arrangement and the orgrafsation described above is a Japanese army with a paper strength of 210,000 men. The following is ble exhibits in a simple form all the divisions of which it is composed, as also their distribution.
