OUR NAVY.
The Secretary Recommends the Construc-
 tion of Three Great Battle Ships.

The Secretary Recommends the Construc-
 tion of Three Great Battle Ships.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-The most inn portant recommendation made by Secretary Herbert in his annual report is that congress authorize the con- struction of three great battle ships of about 10000 tons displacement, each to cost exclusive of armament not exceed ing S4. 1000, 900 each, and twelve torpedo boats of from 100 to 300 tons each, at the discretion of the secretary. to cost not exceeding an average of Sl70,O00. Since his last report five splendid ships have been added to the naval list, three of which are capable of speed in excess of twenty-one knots, while two of them are the heetest cruisers in the world. The five vessels are the Marblehead, iS.44 knots; Columbia, 22. 80; Olympia, 2L69; Montgomery, 19.O56, and Mime. apolis, 23076
 One important change of naval policy is noticed in connection with the ad. vertisements for three new torpedo boats soon to be issued. The secretary says that no speed premiums will be allowed on these boats, that the premi. um system undoubtedly had its ad. vantages when adopted, but the de. partment is now convinced that the time has come, with the experience gained, it may with profit be aban- doned.
 After calling attention to the urgent need of legislation for the relief of the personnel of the navy, the secretary recommends that the enlisted force be increased by 2,O00 men. In conclusion the secretary submits estimates for the next year aggregating $27, 1885, 914, ex. ceeding the current appropriations by s, ,495, ,19s, caused mainly by the neces. sity of paying for vessels now under contract. It is stated that after this year the appropriations on this score will rapidly diminish-falling from sl3, 3,259, 393 next year to S75o,OoO in the following year.

THE cITY's ROAR.
It May Be Notated and Heard Again in Fzs
 ture Years.

ture Years.
 I see, said a well-known musician, that the Sun has been publishing the opinion of some artist fellow that each city has it's color tone. suppose he's right; l don't know much about red splashes and green smears. But the publication of that item brings up to utterance point something that I've had in my mind for many years and that is the actual tone, the sound tone, the keynote of cities.
 You know every sound of nature has its notation, whether it is the buzz of insect life in August or the roar of Niagara in late April. So, too, be- lieve that every city has its especial sound, and that the roar of its traffic could be reduced to notation and indi- vidualized. I am positive that the roar of no two cities is alike, any more than the roar of two lions is alike.
 Of course, the roar of a city differs in depth and intensity according to the time of the year, week and day. The roar of New York on Sun day morning in August, for in- stance, is very different thing from that of New York on Saturday morn ing in October, and, again, very differ ent from that of any time in the dead of winter, when all the streets are cov- cred with snow. But these differ ent sounds can be catalogued, and herein will lie the practical utility of the thing. Travel and warfare in the air are bound to come, you know, and when they do the catalogue of city notes will be as much of necessity as a compass and barometer.
 Take an example now. You are travelling in 8 balloon and the wind has been blowing gale for week. The captain doesn't know how much he is out in his reckoning, when he hears a loud-booming note coming up through the clouds. What note is that he asl1s?'' of the mate. The mate puts the elec- tro-tuning pipe to his ear and halloos back that it is BBB fiat below the staff. Triple B flat below the line" says the captain, land this is Sunday, November f. Why, that's New York. Let out the gas there, my hcarties." And in five minutes more you're safe at the Central Park Aerial Landing Inclosure. Why, sir, it's the thought of the age.- N, Y, Sun,

THE ARMY.
Secretary Lamont Makes Some Recom-
 mendations.

Secretary Lamont Makes some hecom-
 mendations.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The annual re- port of Secretary Lamont shows saw ing of S5Oo,000 in salaries and contin- gent expenses in the administration of the war department at Washington, besides economies in the recruiting service, rents, etc. Expenditures for the last fiscal year were $56, 039, 009; ap- propriations for the current year are S52, ,429, ,112; estimates for the next year are $52, ,31s,629
 It was found necessary at times dur ing the period from March to July in various places to employ considerable part of the army to execute the orders of the United States courts, otherwise successfully defied 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 tbe 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 1 the army numbered: Officers, 2,136; enlisted men, 25,772. Of the latter, for various causes, only 20, IA were effective.
 Secretary Lamont earnestly recom- mends legislation to establish the bat talion formation now adopted by the armies of every other civilized nation. To effect that change he recommends a return to the law of 1870, fixing at 30, 900 the limit of the army. By changes proposed the army will be increased 20 per cent in efficiency, 1611 in numbers and only per cent in cost of mainten- ance. The actual cumulative strength will thus become about 25, ,000 the num- Der now contemplated by law, but which is reduced by attachments and otherwise to about 10000. It is pro- posed to add two companies to each of 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 S1,- 200, 900 annually, but retrenchment has reduced administrative expenses of the war department at Washington S500,- 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 S7O0, 900.

JUDGE GRossCUP at Chicago sustained the objections of shippers to the S9 ter. minal charge made by the Santa Fe railroad on cattle cars at the stock yards. The court announced that it would notify the receivers to abandon the schedule. The decision is an i'm portant one to shippers, as it settles the long-contested matter of stock yards terminal charges. All the roads entering the yards have made practic- ally the same charge as the Santa Fe, and the suit against the latter com pany being test case, the decision dis poses of the charges of all the other lines.

Land Cases Decided.

WASHINGTON, Dec. L. Secretary Smith yesterday decided large num- Der of land cases which have been held up for several weeks. The cases, with few exceptions, are of interest only to the community in which the lands are located. One, however, holds that townsite locations in Oklahoma must have valid improvements, that the certificate of location by the land officers is only prima facie evidence and not good against the sworn evidence of witnesses. There are many more decisions which the secretary expects to dispose of imme, diately.
