CANVAS UNIFORMS.
Chances For Their General Introduc-
ton In the Ar1nv.

Washington, April General Miles.
commanding the army, after conferring
with secretary Alger has ordered 100
canvas uniforms. with a view to their
general Introduction as a light and SER
viceable field uniform by the United
states army. IT is a marked departure
IN uniforming the army, and one in the
interest OF preserving the health of
the men while in active service. The
sample uniforms already ordered are
of strong canvas. of a fine texture. hut
durable material. The color is a gray
brown, said to he particularly desir-
able in time of hostilitieS, as it is diff
cult to be distinguished from the earth
grass, cornfields or dead leaves. 1t is
light and cool in summer, is very SER
viceable in winter and impervious TO
the rain. The canvas suits are already
in use among frontiersmen and do good
service in rough outdoor work. Cen
eral Miles idea has been TO combine
this serviceable frontier suit with
enough color and adornment to give
it a military aspect. The final designs
show the canvas suit and buckskin
leggfngs. with cOlored cloth cuffs. col
lar. chevrons and national coat of
arms above the chevrons. The color of
the cuffs, etc, depends upon arms of
the service; in the navy, blue for the
infantry, red for the artillery and vel
low for the cavalry The hat is of
light felt or Of canvas. similar to that
now worn, but turned up on the left
side, with a colored rosette Indicating
the arm of the service and a short al
grette or plume above the rosette. The
knee breaches and lggings complete
this serViceable military field uniform.
