ROOT HAS A SCHEME, Contemplates Improvements in Schools for Private Soldiers, Secretary of War Hopes to Have About a Million Dollars for Pre- paring of Grounds for Exten- sive Maneuvers of the Army. Secretary Root, Gen. Gillespie, chief of engineers of the army, and Gen. Ran- dolph, chief of the artillery corps, have completed arrangements for an inspec- tiom of the army posts and military schools at Fort Leavenworth and Fort Riley, Kan. This inspection is prepar- atory to putting into operation a num- ber of proposed changes in the military schools of instruction at those posts and with a view to acquiring informa- tion which will assist the secretary of war in the formation of a plan for the establishment of a national army war college. As outlined in the secretary’s report j to congress, it is proposed to secure a large tract ofland where regular troops and the militia organizations can be mobilized and given practical military instruction. The infantry and cavalry school at Fort Leavenworth has grown to enormous proportions since its establisment 20 yearsago,and has now developed into one of the greatest of military institutions. Itis recognized in the army as a post grad- uate school for the officers who have left West Point, and its course of in- struction is Mesigned almost entirely for officers of the army. At Fort Riley there is a cavalry and artillery school, the course of instruc- tion of which provides for the training of the enlisted men as well as the offi- cers, and at the same time gives prac- tical instruction in the combined maneuvers of cavalry and light artil- lery. Bearetasy Root’s scheme contem- plates the expenditure of nearly $1,- 000,000 in the improvement of these posts, which aggregate an area of near- ly 15,000 acres of land, and are located but a little over 100 miles apart. Itis contemplated, if proper facilities can be provided, to quarter several thou- sand soldiers at these posts and to have annual maneyvers similar to those of France and Germany, combining the operations of infantry, cavalry and ar- tillery, and bringing into operation every feature of field service known to actual warfare. It is also proposed to include in the operations of the regular army troops in these maneuvers the instruction of militia organizations of as many states as can be provided for, thereby estab- lishing a great national drill ground for the soldiery of the country? PLANS COMPOUND TURBINE. Lieut. Graydon, Formerly of United States Navy, Invents New and Powerful Engine, Lient. James Weir Graydon, for- merly of the American navy, who built the London and Paris Ferris wheels, the other day placed on view an in- vention which promises to revolution- ize the world’s shipping. The inven- tion is a compound steam turbine bearing the same relation to the tur- bine invented by Charles A. Paarsons in Glasgow that a compound engine does to a single one. Graydon’s tur- bine uses steam under 15 different pressures within a single cylinder the size of a nail keg. The model exhib- ited génerates 25 horse-power and makes 3,000 revolutions a minute al- most without vibration, as the power is applied directly to the shaft. The turbine uses but one-third of | the amount of steam required to run an ordinary engine and about one-half the amount required by Paarsons’ tur- bine. Andrew Carnegie is organizing a company with a capital of $4,000,000 to apply this power to steamships, which, it is believed, will cross the At- lantie in three days. The works will probably be established on the Dela- ware river, near Philadelphia. Her- bert Greig, Andrew Carnegie’s agent | tn London, confirms Graydon’s state- ment regarding the invention. Gray- dion also intends to apply the inven- tion to’ submarine boats and with a gas generator to automobiles. Chinese Women Go to Picnic, Dressed in their native costumes, with yellow striped trousers and gor- geous blue blouses, the Chinese wives of the Chinese merchants of New York attended a picnic the other day at Prohibition park, Staten Island. Their children went with them, but their husbands were barred. It was the most remarkable picnic New York ever turned out, for some of the pic- nickers had scarcely ever before been out of doors, while quite a number had been cooped up for more than 20 years in the tall twisted tenements | of Chinatown. There were girls of 16 whose faces had never been seen in the streets, and women of 50 years old who had never been out of their homes since they were married, years ago. They represented Chinatown’s best society, and there were 86 in the party, which was in charge of sev- eral women of the Sunshine society, and Rev.

UNFOUNDED OPPOSITION TO SUBSIDIES, Value of Ocean Flyers to the Gov- ernment in Time of Peace or War —Bulld Up the \Nation’s Ocean Trade and Augment Its Naval Power. {Special Correspondence.] Washington, D. C., Jan. 16, Considerable opposition to the payment of subsidies to swift American steamships has developed in the press of the country. The statement has been widely circulated that these ships merely carry passengers abroad to spend American money, and to bring back wines and silks for luxurious cit- izens, and that such ships, so employed, are of no help to American commerce. What is wanted, these opponents declare, is car- go carriers, the low-powered steamships that take cargoes wherever they offer, and carry. them wherever they are consigned, regardless of established lines. And these are the ships, they go on and assert, that have given Great Britain her preeminence as a maritime power. All this sounds plausible, and somewhat logical, and, if not analyzed.by those hav- ing knowledge of the facts, helps to create an unfavorable and hurtful sentiment to- ward the shipping bill now pending in congress which properly considers swift steamships, as well as slow ones. Asa mat- ter of fact, the swift steamships carry those products from the United States that are the most valuable, and, in many cases, the most perishable. Were it not for the fast steamship California fruits — a growing business—could not be exported to Europe; with them, the exportation of Pacific coast fruits steadily grows and prospers. All kinds of dressed meats, ham, bacon, lard and an infinite variety of agricultural or farm products, that have gone through va- rious stages of manufacture are sent abroad in swift ships. Swift ships carry the mails; and it is‘es- sential that the maiis be carried with the utmost rapidity. Invariably swift ships are parts of regularly established lines, and they make regular and frequent voyages to and from their terminal points. The swift- er, the greater, the more powerful the ships, the more profitable their use is to their re- spective terminal countries, but the truth is the less remunerative they all are to their owners. They carry the most expensive cargoes that go both ways, the manufac- tures upon whic labor and skill have been expended, and which. return the largest sums to their producers. But these are the ships, the large, pow- erful, swift ocean flyers, that are most use- ful to the nation in time of war. They are at once available as carriers of important dispatches, in cases where celerity is of the utmost importance; they are useful as aux- iliary cruisers, they can be quickly trans- formed into cruisers and then prey upon and destroy the enemy’s commerce; they gan act as scouts for fleets, and keep them informed regarding the movements of the enemy, keeping in touch with the enem} and eluding capture through their swift ness. This was well illustrated by the four great ships of the only American line in the trans-Atlantic trade, during our war with Spain. They were steaming at full speed between 500 and 600 miles a day, far out upon the Atlantic, keeping watch for Spain’s cruisers, ready to report them to the flying squadron at Hampton Roads. It was this scouting work, so. effectively done, that compelled Spain to send Cervera far to the south, when but for them Cervera might have threatened if not seriously and irreparabiy injured our great Atlantio and Gulf seaports. The swift steamships are the nearest at- tainment to the ideal, the consummation of the highest hopes of the artists engaged in their construction, at once an effective dem- ongtration of man’s best handiwork, and at the same time an invaluable aid to the na- tion when most in need of aid. Such ships are the final outgrowth of regularly estab- lished lines where a trade has been built up at great expense, after many years of faithful effort, and through a service that is thorough, complete and attractive. They arethe best of their kind and a nation whose people fail to appreciate them docs not grasp the full significance nox the full value of sea power. The so-called tramp steamships, the ves- sels that carry cargoes wherever Cestined, are merely the carriers of the surp!us car- goes that accumulate after harvesting, or at exceptional times, when the regular lines are overcrowded. But it is the reguiar lines that build up a nation’s trade—never the tramps—and they often do it for years at a Joss, until they are thorough.y established and have accumulated a paying business. And Britain’s sea power lies in her great steamship lines, not in her “tramps.”” O7If the agents of foreign steamships are deliberate!y working to defeat the pending shipping bill—as is being said ail over the country—congress should be warned. The American people are not in the mood to see legislation helpful to-a great American in- dustry defeated in the interest of foreign- ers. ©Congress is not, of course, deliberately conspiring to injure any for interests. But if the iatter happens to mondpolize any great American industry, as they do the carrying of our imports and exports, and congress in legislating to promote this in- dustry in the United States does hurt for- eign intercsts, that is a mere incident, not the objective. O7 If the foreign steamship’ lines are spending money lavishly to defeat the ship- ping bill now pending in congress, as ig ae serted in Washington press dispatches, it aust be that the bill in question would hurt the foreign ships. It that be so, it must fol- low that it would he!p American ships. Con- gress should not be siow to follow this ar- gument to its logical conclusion. Congress, as a body, cannot escape its obiigations to the American people in the matter of providing legislation for the re- vival of our shipping in the foreign trade, by saying that this or that bill is not just perfect. The people elect congress to leg- isiate in the interest of the American peo- ple and they have no time to study all the details. Results count. Members of congress cannot be any more concerned to keep at home and cir- culating among American workingmen and” business men the.$200,000,000 now annually paid to foreign ship owners for doing our foreign carrying than the people are them- seives.| What the people expect is thet this sentiment will find expression in an ef fective statute before adjournment, ~— A HDS FA TE SUBSOY BIL Democrats Who Will Support the Measure to Build Up Amer- ican Shipping. GROWING SENTIMENT IN THE SOUTH tmprovement of Rivers and Harbors and the Construction of Larger Ships Viewed with Approval by Producers and Business Men. {Special Correspondence.} Washington, Jan 23 When the opponents of the shipping bill came to be finally counted,during the clos ing days of the debate on the army bill in the senate, the fact was uncovered that a few influential republicans were among them. These men had certain notions that the bill was inequitable in its provisions, and they had been in the habit of meetiig and comparing notes and assuring each other that their suspicions were well grounded. Finally, however, these objections were brought to light, and, when that was accom- plished, and the friends of the biil were given a chance to discuss these objections, their apparent force melted away like snow under a summer sun. The result has been that a few amendments have been agreed to in the bill that cover every possible point of doubt on the republican side, and they are now all united in the senate in favor of the bill as it stands. When a vote is reached on the shipping bill there will be a disagreeable revelation to the democrats of a few of their own members who will support it. Not leesthan . half a dozen democrats have, one way and another, indicated that they may be relied upon to support and to vote for the bill, and they explain, too, that this is, largely, in obedience to urgent requests from their con- stituents. Nowhere in this country is this more in evidence than in the south, where, hitherto, opposition has been <o general to all forms of government aid, at least on the part of the statesmen representing southern constituencies, as to have caused a feeling of despair at times among their more pro- gressive and up-to-date coileagues from the north and west. The improvement of rivers and harbors in the south, followed by the construction of much larger ships for the carriage of south- ern export products, and the consequent re- duction in freight rates and increase in di- rect returns to the producers, have been ob- ject lessons of immense value to the south- ern business men, and the fact is sowly dawning upon those whom they send to congress to represent them. No longer is there opposition in the south to the im- provement of rivers and harbors; indeed, there is more money likely to go into the improvement of the great seaports of the eouth, and especially of the gulf, and its tributary streams, than into the north. The direct benefits from this have been felt in every hamlet, village and city in the south, whether located upon a navigable stream or not. So, too, it is beginning to be felt through- out the south that the construction of the Nicaragua canal will be an undertaking of the most far-reaching benefit to the south, and the peopte of that section are begn- ning to appreciate the wisdom of Senator Morgan’s valiant fight for that great water. way. The spending of $150,000,000, or even $200,000,000, for the construction of the Ni- caragua canal, it is beginning to be believed throughout the south, will have a benefit each year, upon the increased markets abroad for their surplus products that will repay them, and the nation, too, each year for the total sum of the expenditure. And, with these thoughts crowding one another upon the southern mind, it is quite easy and logical for southerners to appreci- ate the value of ships of our own, doing our own foreign carrying, and keeping the whole of the $175,000,000 at home that is now spent every year for ocean freights that are paid to foreignship owners, and by them taken from the country, to the loss of our national wea'th, to the deprivation of our own peo- ple of employment, and to the strengthén- ing of the auxiliary naval resources of our foreign rivals. In these circumstances the expenditure of $9,000,0000 a year to save ‘from $175,000,000 to $250,000,000 a year is not a proposition ether to frighten the average American citizen or call forth his protest. In fact, the demand for just this kind of a thing is becoming quite unanimous among the business men of the country, south, west, north and east. Senator Hanna is quoted as saying that his mail contains each day a number of re- quests, ranging between half a dozen and a dozen, from students in the high schools and colleges and universities, for copies of his and other speeches on both sides of the shipping question, in order that members of debating teams may familiarize them- selves with the arguments proand con. The | subject is one of the most popular debates now throughout the country, and the results of these debates, almost invariably favoring subsidies, are extremely gratifyng to Sena- tor Hanna. © 7Few people are aware that at a very recent debate between two strong teams, one representing Columbia unversity, of New York, and the other representing the Universty of Pennsyvania, on the question of paying subsidies to American ships, the former taking the negative and the latter the affirmative of the proposition, the Penn- sylvanians won, and this notwithstanding the fact that the three judges were free traders and democrats, one being a very dis- tinguished ex-United States senator from Delaware, 7 However uninformed on the subject of American shipping the present generation of Americans may be, the popularity of the question in our high schools, colleges and universities insures a grasp upon the sub- ject on the part of the youngmen just enter- ing active business life that is quite reaesur- ing as to the future of our mercantile ma- rine.
