Benet in His Annual Re- port. THE ZALINSEE DYNAMITE GUN—THE DEVICES OF GEN. KELTON—SRA-COAST DEFENSES—SMALL ARMS IN THE SERVICE, THE RIGHT-INCH GUX, ETC. Gen, S. V. Benet, chief of ordnance, in his annual Teport to the Secretary of War, says in relation to ‘small arms that during the fiscal year ended June ‘30, 1887, 41,106 rifles and carbines have been man- ufactured at the national armory. The question of a reduced caltber for small arms 18 now under consideration by the Department. An effective and simple magazine gun has become @ necessity, ‘and this bureau has during many yearsendeavored through boards and trials in the Meld to settle on ‘one that would be satisfactory to the Army, but thus far without success. The Department 1s, however, seeking to reach such a result, Carrying out the orders and intentions of the War Depart- ment respecting rifls practice throughout the Army'to a liberal spirit taxed to tbe full the Tesources of the ‘nt in ammunition and target supplies, ‘Army and country e, however, been most amply repaid for this expendl- ture of ammunition at the military posts by the great success which accum| the several annual Contests. | To continue this ilberal supply, with 1ts most excellent results, demands larger appropria.

IN RELATION TO SEA-COAST DEFENSES Gen. Benet says: “It1s not necessary toenter into a discussion of the necessity for sea-coast armament, Ror of the possibility of future disbandment of armies and the settlement of international contro versies with the pen instead of the sword. What may be in the near or distant future in thisregard the most astute statesman cannot divine. Our dealings, however, are with the immediate present, and If te recurrence of wars are likely to follow ample preparation, Europe in arms would seem to indicate that the days of peaceful arbitration have not yet been reached. It can hardly be recom- mended that while waiting for this Tuture possi- bility, our stores should continue unguarded and at the mercy of the most insignificant belligerent. Kams and torpedoes and dynaiite gunsare power- Tul auxiliaries in harbor defense, but the war con- ditions yet obtatniug will not dispense with the hard hainmering of heavy shot moving with high Velocity, because these auxiliaries themselves need protection and of a most perfect character. The dynamite guns with w limited range canaot be left to the mercy of the much-longer reaching guns of the enemy's ships. The attacking ships aust be Kept at & distance by heavy guns and long-range mortars—the comparatively low cost of mortars enabling us to compensate by num- bers for any lack of accuracy of fire. AS a pro- Jectile force gunpowder yet stands supreme. It ‘Strikes its terrific blow at long distances; its arm Teaches many miles; it plants its blows with un- erring certainty. We cannot dispense with such 18 force, so readily handled, so thoroughly under. Stood. ‘Heavy cannon are therefore @ necessity,and must be provided, and our un coasts de- ly.

Toa Star reporter he expressed the opinion, this morn- ing, that the House would pass a tariff bill this session.

He said he though. there ought to be a re- uction of tariff to the amount of about §100,000,- 000, | The free list ought to be largely increased, and there should be a reduction of duties on other importa, Unmanufactured material and commodi- Ues of every-day consumption ought to be placed on the free list’ Or the duty on them greaily reduced.

If they went at It Wisely and wade a large reduction in the cus- toms revenues it would be plain sailing for tuem to success. He felt confident that they would make Such réduction.
