increase of about hundred per cent. in num-
bers since 1914, the expense is more than five
hundred per cent. Owing to the great exten-
sion of the outposts and the nature Of the
country, supplies are obtained with great
difficulty. He says: 'e3 4a''sS4s
"The reinforcements for the troops, as well
as nearly all their supplies, are taken from
the older States, over long land and water
routes, at an enormous expense. Large trains,
belonging to the public, and hired, have been
constantly moving over the land routes, AMI
with the troops in the field; and vessels, at
an expense bearing some relation to the great
increase in the cost of labor; have been en-
ployed in transporting troops and building
materials, forage and other supplies, on the
| water routes: Tie consequence OF all which
is, that, with the army increased a little more
than ons half, or OF fifty per cent the cost OF
i transportation in the last fiscal year has
equalled two millions of dollars, OF more
than fifteen hundred per cent.
In the present condition Of the newly ac-
quired Territories, with the posts establish
ed for their defence necessarily SO far from the
sources of supply, and SO large portion Of
their garrisons mounted, more than ten thou
sand horses, oxen, and mules are constantly
required for transportation, and for mounting
guides, spies, escorts, and troops; forage is
therefore heavy item of expense" b
In regard to Indians, he says;
"The Nomadic Indians between Texas and
New Mexico, have, as long as we can trace
: their history back, and down to a recent pc
Rod, followed and subsisted upon the i'm.
: mense herds of Buffalo that once oyercoverec
: the plains east of the Rocky Mountains. Th(
: Buffalo have been rapidly diminishing fo
: many years past, and now afford the Indians
. very scanty supply. These Indians havt
: ever been warlike, well mounted, and wei
armed. The rapid disappearance OF their &C
customed means Of subsistence has, for SOM
time past, compelled them to fight, steal, Q
strive. Brave men in savage state, witt
n ann; in their hands, never starve themselves
nor allow their women ami children to starve
when subsistence can be won by prowess
II skill For half century past as the gam
It has diminished, they have been in the habl
n of making inroads into the Mexican provin
ces; and they have at length broken into an
overrun some of the better portions OF thos
n provinces, as the northern borders formerl
broke into and overrun the Roman empire
: Recently they have made inroads into Texas
n and there as we'll as in New Mexico, the

t. employment as if state Of war had existed
