AMERICAN SHIPS FEW.

Commissioner Chamberlain Shows Up the
Evils OF the Present Registry System.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The annual re-
port of the commissioner of naviga-
ton, Eugene T. Chamberlain, is mainly
an argument for free ships, based
on the maritime standing and policies
of. the United States and other
nations. Only six steamships, inc1ud-
ing the New York and Paris. crossed
the Atlantic. and only seven the Pa
ciic last year, while from New York
and Philadelphia alone thirty-three
steamships, mainly new steel vessels
owned by Americans, crossed regularly
to Europe under foreign flags.
He says that American enterprise
is century in advance of the law.
In thirty years only one American
steamship has once visited Hamburg,
the greatest continental port, and last
year only two sailing vessels entered
there. Every bushel of grain which
left New York for Europe last year
was carried under a foreign flag. Of
1900 vessels passing the Suez
canal in the last three years only
six have been American. Every civ
ilized nation but the United States al
lows it's citizens the use of the national
flag over vessels in foreign trade,
wherever bought, having learned that
otherwise they will buy vessels under
foreign flags, charter such vessels or
abandon navigation altogether to for
oi0n rivals

THE ARMY.
Secretary Lamont Makes some Recon-
mendations.

| menO8Ea0nSs
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The annual re
| port of Secretary Lamont shows saw
ing of 100000 in salaries and contin
| gent expenses in the administration OF
the war department at Washington
besides economies in the recruiting
service, rents, etc. Expenditures fol
the last fiscal year were $50, O39, 0O9; ap
preparations for the current year are
$50, 429, liz; estimates for the next year
q, e So, 31s, 629
It was found necessary at times dur
ing tn period from March to july in
various D. aces to employ considerable
part of the a. rmy to execute the orders
of the United States courts, otherwise
successfully defieo> and resisted, to pro
tect the dispatch OF the United States
mails and to guard the property of the
government. The movement of troops
thus necessitated was the largest which
has taken place since the close of the
civil war. The extraordinary tasks
imposed upon officers and men Were
discharged promptly, firmly and judi
ciously, attesting to the thorough
efficiency of every branch of the serv.
ice.
On October. the army numbered
Officers, 2, 1856; enlisted men, 25, TIP. o:
the latter, for various causes, only 20, liz
were effective.
Secretary Lamont earnestly recon.
mends legislation to establish the bat
talon formation now adopted by the
armies of every other civilized nation.
To effect that change he recommends
return to the law of 1870, fixing at 30:
600 the limit of the army. By changes
proposed the army will be increased q
per cent. in efficiency, 1615 in number.
and only per cent. in cost of mainten.
ance. The actual combative strength
will thus become about %, 900, the mum.
Der now contemplated by law, but
which is reduced by detachments and
otherwise to about 10000 It is pro-
posed to add two companies to each Oh
the twenty-five infantry regiments and
two batteries to each of the five artil-
lery regiments. No increase in cavalry
is proposed. The cost of the increased
number of enlisted men would be ST.
1000 annually, but retrenchment has
reduced administrative expenses of the
war department at Washington $780,
900, and by applying these economies
to the benefit of the army efficient or
ganization and greater strength can be
obtained at an increase OF only $500, 900.

by her forces. Too much weight.
the papers declare, should not be
attached to the Chinese overtures
for peace, for it is believed that
Japan will be required to give
to her enemy further proof of her
power in order that the Chinese people
may learn that their government sued
for peace. If Talu and Shan Han Kwan
should not be attacked this winter
owing to the severity of the climate,
the war will be carried on in other parts
of China. No armistice will be granted
unless China formally sues for
peace and surrenders Pekin to the jap
anese or gives other pledges in proper
ton to the demands of Japan. If China
is unable to pay the war indemnity
Immediately a portion of the sum de-
cided upon paid down will be accepted
and the remainder may be paid in in
stallments with interest.
The minister of foreign affairs has
handed to United States Minister Dun
Japan's answer to China's proposition
for transmission to United States
Minister DENLY at Pekin. It is
rumored that one of the guaran-
tees demanded by Japan is the
continuation of the Japanese occupa-
ton of Port Arthur until the treaty
conditions are fulfilled, but it is appre-
hended that such a demand may in
volve Great Britain. to which nation
such occupation would be obnoxious.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 1.-The final day Of
the Transmississippi congress opened
with light attendance, large pro-
portion of the delegates having gone
home last night or this morning. A
list of vice presidents and executive
committeeman were announced, the
list being incomplete and to be filed
later by communication with the Off
GERS of the congress.
The remainder of the report of the
committee on resolutions was read and
the following expressions were adopted
as the sense of the congress. Recon-
mending to the southern states the
production of ramie as a means of di-
versifying the crops of that section;
favoring action by congress extending
the provisions of the Carey arid land
act to the territories: urging congress
to pass acts for the admission of
Oklahoma, New Mexico and Ari-
IONA as states; favoring the al
lotment of the lands of the five
civilized tribes, the creation of a state
or territorial government, with COM
plete court jurisdiction, or the union
of all or part of the territory of Ok
1ahoma and admission in single state
hood with that territory. This last
was adopted, after some debate over a
minority resolution favoring an en-
1argement of the jurisdiction of the
federal judiciary in the territory and
deferring statehood until the lands
should be allotted and the new citizens
be ready for lf-governmeut. Omaha
was selected for the next meeting.
