Washington, April 4—A regular army of 250,000 men in time of peace the proposition presented in an amendment to the Chamberlain army reorganization bill in an amendment Brandegee of Con- It provides the of men in the army in lieu of the 180,000 peace strength which necticut the Chamberlain bill calls for in its present form. Two hundred and fifty thousand is the number recom- mended by Gen. eral staff of the lege. Senator Brandegee's amend- ment further provides that addition- al units of infantry, cavalry and field artillery, to the aggregate number of 50,000 men, may be organized at the order of the president, in certain pro- portions. Senator Brandegee had a little col- loquoy with Senator Cumins of Towa during the debate on the Chamber- Jain bill, wherein Mr. Brandegee took issue with Cumins’' statement that Wood and the gen- army, the Hay house army bill authorized the president to draft the national ! i guard or organized militia into the federal service. Mr. Brandegee said that the Hay bill merely authorized the president to draft individua ‘\ho are members of the national rd, into the federal service, and that there is no authorization to draft the national guard organizations into federal service.

A proposition to have a great mil- itary training camp on the shore of Narragansett bay or on an island in the b; for the joint use regular army, coast artillery militia, students, and volunteer citizens, is being advocated here by Capt. Harry B., Kane .of Narragansett Pier, R. T, Conn., who is interviewing members of congress from New FEngland and others about the matter. Capt. Kane, who was himself a student at the Plattsburg camp last summer, has taken the matter up especially with Representative Stiness of Rhode Island. Kane is a former member of the National Guard and is said to be acting altogether unofficially. He points out that Narragansett Bay is a very strategic location; that it is a well fortified as any place on the New England coast, that it is con- veniently accessible to men desiring military training throughout New Eugland. If there is war and in- vasion of this country, it is thought the enemy would likely aim at agansett Bay on account of its sirategic value. Then Boston, Con- necticut cities and New York could be attacked from the rear. TUnder the circumstances, Captain Kane , it is desirable to have men ained for military service at that point, so that they would be familiar with the surroundings in case of war. Civilians, militiamen and students could be trained there with the co- operation of the regular army, which garrisons Forts Adams, Wetherell and Greble. ; The matter is: being broached at this time, it is understood, on ac- count of the popular interest in pre- paredness, and because of several measures pending before congress. and the Chamberlain arm 1eorganization bills both contain pro- vision for extending the Plattsburg camp country, the training located by the war department. There also a bill which has passed the senate, providing that the depart- ment shall issue supplies to studen desiring to undertake military train- ing. The exact site on or near Narra- gansett Bay has not been decided upon definitely by the promoters of the project, it is id. Captain Kane suggests Conanicut = TIsland, near Fort Greble. Former Governor Charles Warren Lippitt of Rhode Is land is said to be very much inte ested in the broject. The claims of Newport for the pro- posed joint army training, militia, student, citizen camp, were presented to the Rhode Island delegation today by Mayor Patrick J. Boyle of that city, who wrote the exceptional facilities afforded by the island of Rhide Tsland, on which Newport is situated. Boyle alluded to the situation Newport, the fransportation facili- ties, camping grounds, deep water, the proximity of the nava] station, ete. ‘tha camps of the amp site. bill, England for the Senator McLean’s troduced, for provides for each of $2,500 the tion service, annual salaries to boilers at New London, New Haven, and other points.

Mr. Tread- way inserted in the Congressional Rec- ord reports of army engineers upon the improvement follows: | “These two items in reference to the Connecticut river bring up the very in- teresting subject of another important measure that is excluded from present bill under the vote of the com- mittee not to take on new projec Long before m:; very strenuous effort was made, and continued over a period of years, to secure navigation in the Connecticut from Hartford to Holyoke. Fi- ! nally a favorable report has been se- cured from the board of engineers, house document 417, sixty-fourth con- gress, first session. This is a great step forward toward securing navig tion to Holyoke. This project waits both the pleasure of congress in adopt- ! ing new projects and the possibility | of co-operation between individuals or private corporations and the federal government in hydroelectric develop- { ment. I therefore hope that the time is not far distant when new projects in the river and harbor bill and also when a general dam act such as is probably the proposal of the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Adamson) in this congress may be adopted. We have conserved 50 strongly the natural resources of the country that we have wasted indefin- itely the possibility of development of that kind. Conservation has run riot, and it is time that we did corserve by saving the great waste that has been lost for all of these years. The Con- necticut river is one of those projec | and therefore T am heartily in favor of such a proposition as will bring it be- fore the house.” river 'PIRACY ON THE HIGH SEA, IS THE CHARGE It Convicted Schiller Will Go o Prison for Life w York, April 4.—The United States attorney general sent word to the local federal authorities here to- day that a formal charge of piracy on the high seas for which the penalty upon conviction is imprisonment for life, is to be preferred against Clar- ence Reginald Hudson alias Ernst Schiller, the German who unaided took possession of the British steam- | ship Matoppo after it had left New | York last week for Europe. !
