FAvORS MILLIONS FOR DEFENCE.
CAPTAIN II. F. W. CAMPBELL TALKS OF THE
NAyv Avn COACH DrrrNcrs

NAVY AND COAST DEFENCEs
Captain II. F. W. Campbell lectured last night in
the North Presbyterian Church "Our Navy and
Coast Defences." The lecture illustrated with
stereoptcon views Of the great battle between the
Monitor and the Merrimac which tho captain wit
messed from the shore. He was at that time a
member OF the Goth Indiana Regiment. and was
stationed at Newport News.
Captain Campbell said that no made declaration
seven years ago in Irving Hall that the Nation
should expend S35OOoo0Oo in building war vessels
and equal sum In coast defences. He was sub
jected to much adverse criticism at tho time. he
said but he thought that recent developments had
completely vndIcated him. He said he still be-
lieved that the expenditure Of less sum would not
insure adequate protection 10 the harbors the COM
merce the citizens at home and abroad. and tho
flag wherever il floats. He said that while tho
Nation was only sixth in naval strength al the
present time II had not started 10 build modern
veseels until sixteen years after the other Ave
great Powers began 10 strengthen their navies and
ter built better equipped and better manned than
those OF any other country on earth.
The Captain then described how tho present high
grade OF vessels had been developed together
with dirgent dautomobile torpedoes rapid fire
ard disappearing guns searchlights and r,,bna rtne
boats Captain Campbell said he served four years
and two months in the War OF the Rebellion, and
that he had all the he wanted. But he
thought that the only way TO prevent war was for a
nation to prepare for IL and that other nations
would then respect It's power and refrain from In
sulting II.
