WASHINGTON, Oct. 2-Nowl that a
question has arisen as to the best method Of
providing an efficient system Of transpor-
ia ton by sea for the army, 1t may be Of in
terest to mote what the view of the navy
department has been all along in this mat
ter. The attention of the department was
called by Admiral Sampson at an early
stage to the defects Of the transport system
as revealed IN the departure from Tampa
Of the Shafter expedition. and the delays In
the landing at Baiqutri, Cuba. The action
of the navy department at the time Is
shown by the following memorandum pre-
pared by Captain Dickens. who was at the
time acting as chief Of the navigation bu-
reau in the temporary absence Of Captain

recommend the adoption at once Of the

In booking up information covering the
subject Of the above cablegram, I am not
able to find in the office of the naval intel

regulations covering the combined acton
of the two services In consequence Of
this, would suggest that a cablegram be
