DEMANDING BETTER
MILITIA EQUIPMENT.
National Guardsmen of Massachu-
sets Believe in Striking While
the Iron Is Hot.

BOSTON, Feb. 2s.-AdjutantG Cen
eral Dalton and Brigadier- General
Guild have been detailed by Governor
Wolcott to go to Washington to see the
Massachusetts delegation in further
ance of a bill now before Congress in
creasing the appropriations for the
equipment of the militia of the several
States of the Union. These officers
went to Washington late this evening
and will remain in the capital as long
as their services may be productive of
good.
Generals Dalton and Guild are to go
before the War Department and state
the present condition of the armament
of the field artillery of the militia Of
this State, with a view to procuring, if
possible, more modern guns. The regu-
lar army of the United States is at
present supplied as to it's field artillery
with the and inch breechloading
rifles The guns used by our National
Guard are the obsolete muZzle-loaders
of the Civil War period, and at least
one of the batteries is almost useless
on account of the difficulty experienced
in obtaining ammunition that is no
longer manufactured in the Govern
ment arsenals. Repeated appeals have
been made to the Secretary of War of
late by the artillery officers for better
guns. The Governor believes in 'Strik-
ing when the iron is hot"

HOLLANDS SUBMARINE
BOAT READY FOR SEA.
Naval Officers Try in Vain to Get
Aboard of the Rather Mys-
terious Craft.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-Men We're en-
gagged all to-day aboard the Holland
submarine boat at Perth Amboy, N. J.,
making preparations for the final trips
of that craft. The boat was constantly
surrounded by crowd of spectators.
Mr.. Holland was anxious to try the
boat to-day, but there was a little
trouble with the steering apparatus, and
when it was remedied it was too late
for the trip. The Holland lies in a
deep basin surrounded by barges. Her
engines are constantly at work, but the
only indication of movement is a few
bubbles which arise to the surface. BY
the end of the week the Holland will
be ready for service, and early next
week the boat will be put in shape for
its long run to Washington.
The exclusive information given by
The Call and Herald regarding this
boat caused several naval officers to
visit Perth Amboy, but Mr.. Holland
firmly refused to allow them to see the
workings of the boat.

NEW YORK, Feb 2S.-With gleam-
ing white sides and FURNISHED guns fore
and aft, the United States monitor Ter
ror lay at anchor to-day off Tompkins-
vile, within a cable-length of the spot
where the black-sded Spanish cruiser
Vizcaya was anchored last week.
Staten Islanders greeted the guardian
of the port of New York with cheers,
and so many small boats put out to the
monitor that one of her officers. said
that New Workers seemed to have: be-
come hysterical.
Ice covered the bows and forward
deck of the monitor this morning. and
it was plain that during her trip from
Hampton Roads waves had dashed
over her decks almost without him
drance, owing to the low freeboard of
the vessel. The warm sun enabled the
crew to get rid of the ice early in the
day, however, and when The Call cor
respondent stepped aboard in the after
noon the monitor was spick and span.
Captain Nicoll Ludlow told me that
the run from Hampton Roads was a
most pleasant one. Fair weather and a
smooth sea had been experienced from
Saturday afternoon, when the monitor
got under way, until early this morn
ing, when she arrived. The captain
said his orders were to come to New
York and anchor off Tompkinsville, and
that he had no idea as to how long he
is to remain. He said he would not go
to the Brooklyn navy-yard or any other
place, but would remain off Tompkins-
vile until other orders were received.
1 asked the captain if he had come
prepared to protect the city of New
York and if the monitor had any I'M
usual supply of ammunition aboard.
The captain smiled grimly, and said:

Captain Ludlow is a great believer in
the efficiency of the monitor type of the
navy vessel. He served on one in the
Civil War, and has been an earnest ad-
vocate of increasing the number of
monitors ever since. He told me that
he hoped to see Congress make an ap-
preparation for fifteen additional YES
sells of the type of the one he COM
mands None of the sailors of the Ter
ror were given shore leave to-day. A
boat was sent off for mail, and the pay
master went to the navy-yard. An Or
derby and a couple of bluejackets We're
halted on their way from their boat to
the postoffice at Tompkinsville by a
crowd of enthusiastic islanders who
shook hands with the tars, presented
tobacco to them and cheered enthusiast
tically.
The Terror at 1 O'clock moved from
her anchorage below Tompkinsville to
a point about half a mile north, oppo-
site the lighthouse station. Passengers
on the Staten Island ferry boat crowded
the rail to have a look at the craft sent
to guard the city.
