His Request About Wires For Forts BE
ing Granted, He Has "A New One.
WASHINGTON, March A.-secretary
Alger had with him in conference for
some time yesterday General A. w.
Greedy, chief signal officer Of the army.
General Greely has urged upon the sec
retary the Importance Of an allotment
Of money FOR the purpose Of connecting
the various parts OF the fortihcations
at seaport cities by means Of electrical
communications and in response to his
representations on this subject work In
that direction Is about to begin In New
York harbor.
Another matter which General Greedy
thinks OF great Importance to the army
IN case OF hostilties is tho employ
ment Of balloons for observation pur-
poses. He has asked repeatedly for an
appropriation from congress for expert
ments In this line, but thus far his ef-
forts to obtain money have been un-
successful
lie hopes that more money may be
put at his command for experimenting
with balloons, as he believes they would
be invaluable for many purposes In
time OF war. For instance, he says,
while fioating in the air off the coast
around any Of the seaport cities they
could observe the presence of ships of
the eneiny's fleet at great distance off
shore and by means Of the cable at
tached TO them and connecting with
telegraphio instruments below could dis
seminate information Of the fact while
the ships were yet great distance off.
Balloons, moreover, he thinks, would
be OF great value 10 the military branch
Of the service. Should an army OF oc-
cupatiOn be sent to Cuba the balloons
would be OF use. II is thought in the
observations Of the operations of the
enemy's army, the country being quite
heavily wooded, so that it would be i'm
possible to ascertain the movement OF
opposing troops on the ground.
| General Greely does not believe there
Is much danger to be feared from the
Gre Of the enemy, as experience has
shown It to be a very difficult matter
to gauge properly the height to which
the aeronaut has asoended.
