ARMY REPORT.
The Qusrtermaster-Genera of the Army
 Makes Some Recommendations.

The Quartermaster-Genera of the Army
 Makes Some Recommendations.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-In his annual report, Quartermaster-Gen. Batchelder earnestly recommends increased appro- priations for barracks and quarters. He says the present appropriations are insufficient, and that, owing to the temporary character of many of the present structures, over one-half of these appropriations must be spent to keep them in repair.
 Attention is called to the intolera ble condition of the approaches to historic Arlington, one of the most beautiful parks in the country, where so many of the nations heroes are buried. To render it accessible, good macadam- ized road should be provided at 8 cost of S50,0O and a bridge should be constructed over the Potomac. The latter would also be of great value from military point of view.
 To carry out the act providing for the location and preservation of the lines of battles at Antietam Md, the govern ment must acquire 800 acres of land, necessitating an additional appropria- tion of S5O,OOO. A vast amount of cor respondence has been carried on in the prosecution of the work. When the positions of the several brigades of the two armies and their batteries-a total of 232-are located and designated by temporary markers, the work will be largely completed. The temporary markers will then be replaced by per manent tablets or monuments. The ordnance department has supplied the condemned cannon to mark the bat teries.
 At Gettysburg, Pa, the purchase of land for monument sites has been com pleted, and the sites of commands have been marked on the tablets and guns.

AMERICAN BEEF.
A stroke of Diplomacy by Foreign Powers
 --Retaiiating Against Americans.


 -Retaiiating Against Americans.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.--Agricultura department officials, who are watch ing the progress of negotiations be- tween Germany and the United States over the question of excluding Ameri. can cattle, incline to the belief that by her latest move the European power has prepared for a clever stroke of diplomacy. The announcement from semi-official sources that the German government had agreed to leave the crucial point of dispute-whether or not Texas fever could be communicated to other cattle by the importation of American stock-to the preponderance of expert opinion, seemed on it's face material concession to the United States. 1t might have been accepted as such, but for the qualifying state ment that their chief authority would be Frank Billings, of Nebraska.
 The work of Dr. Billings is we'll known at the department. He was formerly connected with the state az ricultural experiment station of Me- braska, and other labors which he con- ducted and which brought his name before the public were experiments upon swine, in furtherance of an in- occulation theory which the scientific men of the department smiled at.
 A thorough investigation of the prop agation of Texas fever, conducted by the bureau of animal industry before the present complication with Ger many had arisen, led to conclusions which preclude the belief that the germ could be spread abroad by the exporta- tion of northern cattle. Dr. Billings, however, antagonized Dr. Salmon's verdict, and wrote paper which fur nished just the authority the Germans would doubtless desire.
 Officials say that it is evident that Germany has secured the writings of Dr. Billings on the subject, hence its avowed intention to rest its case on his opinion. Bureau scientists assert that pr. Billings has strongly antagonized the departments work recently and think that he may be aiding the Ger mans in this matter.
 The news that the Hamburg authori- ties passed two cargoes of cattle as healthy, and that Prussian sanitary officers who were ordered to Hamburg discovered Texas fever, confirms the belief that the prohibition of American cattle was inspired by the government as a retaliatory measure against that clause of the schedule which operated against German interests.
