ENGLAND'S TACTICS.
Ex-senator Ingalls, AttaG'S The AppFOpFia-
tons for The Nary.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-An article con-
trlbuted TO the New York Truth by ex-Sena-
tor ingalls,, which has created much conf
ment, is in substance as follows: The
annual shrek about our defenseless coasts,
and The b1mbardment of New York, Phila-
drlDhia and Boston has not been omitted.
The yearly pamphlet describing bloodhound
ling incid ents and the appalling conse-
quences Of war with Chile and Spain in
1865 has been sent to each Senator and Rep
reseulative in Congress. The editorial es-
Inmates in the metropolitan press of the
amount OF property within reach OF an
Italian lronclad in Lower Bay, and the ram
= SON that could be extorted from merchants
and bankers, have all been submitted and
filed away Tor use again in 1892. Their pur-
.IOSe IS to reconcile the people to the passage
O a naval appropriation bill and to enOr-
nous aud pTOlllgate expenditures in time of
peace for SHIPS, Notifications and munitions
of war.
THE capacity of the United States to
create navy in case Of emergency was
demonstrated in the rebellion. The duel
netween the Monitor and Merrimac in
Hampton Roads revOlutionized national
warfare, and the problem since then has
been 10 construct armor that no projec,ile
could penetrate, ana then to invent DrOlec-
tiles that no armor could resist. European
nations have been conducting these eXpen-
eiye experiments hitherto and the ships Of
other explosives complcate the situation.
and the navy we are now building at cost
of Sc, 600, 600 will be as worthless in 1860 as
Roman galeys. England. France and Italy
would gladly sell US their floats at 30 per
cent Of their cost.
"The millions we are squanderiDg on
vessels had better be spent for earthWorks

fleet could threaten or assail. Is there any
necessity for spending millions every yearfor

his preparations for the arrest

which are being made to establish her
identity. The woman protested against
the ingratitude and lack of apprecia-
ton shown in return for her
unselfish interest in the case, but
the county solicitor said that no trif-
ling or interference would be tolerated.
While it is generally believed that it is
DR.. Walker, there are those who enter

HANOVER, n. H., Sept. 29.-Last
night at O'CLOCK the door-bell of
Farmer Warden's house the home of
Almy'S victlm) was rung by woman,
who said, as the door was opened:
Here's lady who wants to stay all
night" Inc visitor had on stylish
hat and a veil drawn over her face, and
wore Il long circular reaching to the
floor. She stepped forward at once
into the house, and without any pre-
liminary said: Il game up here to stay
tonight. l want to see Christie's room
and sleep in her bed. L come as
friend"
The family were startled, but request
ed her to sit down. They asked the OBJ
ject of her visit, but she said she was
very tired then, and would explain all
in the morning. Oscar Wardsn, of Mon-
roe. n. H., brother of A. II. Warden,
noticed that the visitor had a somewhat
masculine appearance. and his suspi-
cions were aroused. While sitting on
the sofa, he suddenly seized her hands,
and, after struggle in which the in
truder developed muscular power I'M
usual for a woman, the circular was re-
moved, disclosing a person dressed In
Prince Albert coat, vest and trousers,
| with a white bosom shirt. The intrud-
er thcu declared she was woman, and
ner name was Dr.. Mary Walker. The
woman, who mad become much excited,
further than to say that she had come
to save Andrew Warden's life, and
would make further statement in the
morning,
Neighbors were called in and sat up
with the woman until morning. The
family this morning could not be
convinced that the person was
not man. Oscar Warden said
that no woman of her size could
possess such strength, and besides the
|. large neck, hands and feet, the voice
was masculine. He felt so confident of
this, and that there were confederates
about, that he and a neighbor stood
guard ali night before the house,
armed with shotguns. The members of
the family were excited that they also
sat UP all night. About a. m. steps
were heard by the outside watchers,
but the bark of the Warden dog fright
ened away whoever made them.
Is The alleged Mary Walker is about
with very dark hair. rather long, with
I traces Of gray. has a short face with no

Mr.. Warden several letters. To identify
herself she showed two receipts for
