SEC’Y LONG'S REPORT He Asks for Less Than the Current App opiations. an accommodation A PLEA MADR FOR ECONOMY Results Obtaigadiin the Rebuilding ofthe Navy. mE VESSELS BEING CONSTRUCTED In his annual report Secretary Long asks for appropriations’ for the running ex- penses of the navy, amounting to $22,232,- 728.55, and. $8,440,273 for the increase of the navy, a total of $30,675,001.55. The ap- propriations for the current year ending in 1898 were corsiderably more than this amount. They were: For running expenses, $20,179,451.19, and for increase, $13,933,78° a total of $34,113,234.19. The Secretary recommends “that the authorization of new ships by the coming Congress be limited to one battle ship for the Pacific coast, where, after the five now: under construction are completed, there will be only two, while on the Atlantic there will be seven, 2nd zlso to a few torpedo boats and tornedo- beat destroyers, both of which are com- paratively ef little cost, and more of which are desirable in order to bring this swift, mobile and handily effective arm of the service up to its place in the general scheme for coast defense.” The Fighting Force. “The present effective fighting force of the navy,” says Secretary Long, “con- sists of four battle ships of the first class, two battle ships of the second class, two armored cruisers, sixteen cruisers, fifteen erates sentocongenger JACKETS. $4, 9 Your oe 8 kerse co t ja none worth under $10. of handsome k bonele and tan ts—lined through- some with out with sil vet collars—others with hi storm collars—and Zeecesteontedarrtentontreteetesentertorzete ite gunboats, six double-turreted monitors, one Black and tan kerses, all- fam, anc dynamite gunboat, one dispaten |¢ 2(())°S4 gis iined, wsloced, "back boat, one transport steamer and five tor- some made with strap se pedo boats.

Of the latter the Kearsarge and Kentucky are tiearly half completed. About three-quatters of their armor been delivered, q part of which has b: secured in place'om the ships. T three, the Alabama, Illinois and Wisco: were begun subsequent! to the dast ann report. “With the @xéepition “of a small amount of diag semate armor, which the ship cont at the price fi ry to prelim Been ceercenrteetnentee ever, will be completed far in advance of the battle ships. In view of the affec ; people regard the frigate Constitution, the iepartment believes that it should be pre- served and handed down to future gener- ations. It is therefore suggested that a sufficient appropriation be made to fit ft for use as a training ship. Secretary Long says this would prevent it from pas off the list of the navy, and would keep alive the patriotic sentiment of which the old frigate has always been an inspiration. The department recommends that the statute authorizing the appointment of professors of mathematics be so amended , Without disturbing those who now hold’ the office, which would be unjust to no further appointments shall be The reason for the creation of the has passed away. The professors ere at first teachers of midshipmen on board ship, nnd were thus exposed to the dangers of service in war and at sea. 4 They were therefore properly pensione >| by a place upon the retired list. Toda: ‘their name is largely a misnomer. The attention of Congress is invited to the consolidation of the libraries of the *War and Navy departments. These libra- ries are composed of works largely of a technical character bearing on the subject of war. They are located in the building, and it is believed by Secreta’ Long that their consolidation would be in the interest of economy, saving unnec- essary duplication of books and periodicals and some expense of clerical force, and re- leasing floor space for other demands. There are seventeen vacancies in the medical corps, and for these there are practically no candidates who are within the age limit, which is from 21 to 26. With i se cf naval vessels, Secretary 4 action should be taken at once nsure the filling of these vacancies. It is strongly recommended that the limit of age for entrance into the medical corps of the navy be raised to thirty years. At twenty-six, the present limit, the gradu- ates of our medical schools, in which the standards of training are steadily rising, are often not yet ready to begin practice. This demand is urgent. Americanizing the Eylisted Force. The efforts of the department to Ameri- canize the enlisted force @f the navy have been steadily pursued, and with this end in view temporary enlisting stations were established during the past summer in a number of the lake cities and a number of excellent men enlisted. The department intends to repeat this action in the south- ern states, believing that similar enlist- ments can be secured on the gulf coast. The records of the department show that of the 2,845 petty officers in general service June 30, 1897, 48 per cent were native born and 83 per cent were citizens of the United States; and of the 5,840 other men in gen- eral service 58 per cent were native born and 70 per cent were citizens of the United States. It should be said that of these pet- ty officers and men a great number are of long seafaring experience and have excel- lent and deserving records. ‘The most striking feature of naval prog- ress abroad is that of the Japanese govern- ment. She already ranks next to England and France in the extent of her naval building. She has added during the past year to her fleet two first-class battle ships, built in England, and her program for the future will render her by the year 1902 the strongest naval power in the Pacific ocean. Secretary Long concludes his report with the following plea for economy: “It appears that the expense of main- taining the navy is a growing one, as dis- tinguished from its increase and perma- nent improvements, the cost of which varies from year to year, according to the judgment of Congress as to the desirability of these latter items. Attention is cailed to this fact because the country should be under no misapprehension as to the in- ing cost of maintenance. “The building of a ship is a definite fixed expense, incurred once for all. But to maintain it, to provide it with docks, naval stations other necessary facili- ties, to man and equip it, to keep it in re- pair—in short, to run the naval establish- ment—is, and must continue to be, a large charge on the public treasury, and, for a time, certainly, an increasing one. Economy is at large and in detail, not ion with which the , it will be-necessa- ly accept them without armor, in accordance with the terms of the contract for their construction. The ships are so designed, however, and the contract so drawn that this can be done without much other embarrassment to the govern ment than the delay in their final compte tion. But this, of course, is a gre barraSsment, practically making the sels-useless meantime to the navy. vent this, provisi for obtaining theearmor neces completion.” Docking Facilities. The retary considers the increase in’ decking facilities the. most urgent need of the naval service at this time and refers to the recent necessity of sending the In- diana to Halifax to be docked. He recom- mends that a dock be constructed at Bos- ton large enough to receive the largest ceean-going vessels, That at New York timber dock No. 2 ‘be fitted with a con- crete entrance and widened sufficiently to accommodate our largest battle ships. That the dock at League Istand be widened and provided with a concrete entrance. That at Norfolk the short dock be lengthened 150 feet, which will enable it to accommo- date all except our very largest ships, and an arrangement is made at Newport News the long dock be improved. That at Port Royal a proper wharf be constructed adjoining the dock. That at Algiers, New Orleans, a steel floating dock be construct- <d, and that at Mare Island a first-class dock be constructed as soon as the depth ef water shall be increased.to the proper extent. Progress @ reserve sup S. as also been made in obtainin: ply of guns and projectiles f naval yesse! for auxiliary cruisers. the present time 142 guns for th are in proces: which are of Wher and 1 fer arming auxiliary cruisers. ber will be sufficient to arm only twent sels with six guns each. It is deem- frable by the department that this work should be steadily prosecuted, as in no other way or with so little expense can we-add to our naval strength as by pro- viding. guns and ammunition for auxili. rs. As these vessels are already puilt, they need only to be armed to make them effective additions to the navy. The de- partment has therefore asKed in its esti- mates for the coming year an additional appropriation for this purpose. ‘he board for the inspection of merchant vesst has scheduled sixty vessels, and recommends batteries as follows: Forty- six six-inch, 205 five-inch and 206 four-inch guns. There are now in process of manu- acture 41 six-inch, 40 *five-inch and 4) four-inch guns, legyii to be provided five six-inch, 165 five-the! and 157 four-inch guns. ee Defettivei System. The Secretary dévofés a long chapter in his report to the question of the personnel. He tells in detafi"6f very grave faults of the present systdrh, ahd states tnat he has appointed a beat tb consider the whole to Congress. He thinks subject and repor that it is desizable,that the President should have tke righbdo appoint ten cadets at large each year,tand makes a_ strong plea for authority tostncrease the force of enilsted men to ¢orragpond to the increase in the number oftnaval vessels. ‘The departrent;he says, has under con- sideration, in thevintetest of economy, the substitution of iectrical power for the present method ofpower slistribution in the navy yards. + ae Secretary Long ‘pays a tribute to the working of the civ service system in the navy yards, saying»that hardly one of the complaints made against the navy yard methods of employment has proven to be well grounded.
