ParIor Car.


Maj. Wilkinson, recruiting officer for

men to the front last night over the
Burlington route. They will go to Fort

make the trip in charge of Acting Ser

night where Maj. Wilkinson lined them
up and gave them a cheering little talk
in which he praised them for their pa
triotism in Offering their services to
their country at this time, and prom
ised them that they would be we'll cared
for. But five or six Of the men were
from this city. On this account there
were but few friends to see them off,
and the words of Maj. Wilkinson were
more than welcome.
From the recruiting office the men
marched in double file to the Union
depot, where they were put on board
the parlor car Winona. Maj Wilkin-
sons last words to them were that
they had been given a fine car because
they were fine body of men, During
the interval before the time for the
departure Of the train, quite a crowd
assembled, and as the train pulled out
they were given three hearty cheers
and many godspeeds were shouted to
them.

LONDON, Aug 1.-THE morinh papers
comment upon the proposed immense
increase in the American navy. The
Standard says:
''Such feet operating from Manila
as base would be able to exercise con-
siderable influence upon the progress OF
events in Chinese waters and added to
the English China squadron and the
japanese navy would make a mighty
armament indeed"
The Standard suggest that this con
sideratlon may give Russia pause.
The Daily Mail says: 1.-THE new pro
gram is startling in it's immensely. The
American navy jumps to fourth place
among the worlds fleet. It will not
long remain fourth, nor will it be long
before the United States will have i
policy i'll China"
WASHINGTON. Aug. ia naval pro-
gram for presentation to congress, i'll
volving the immediate construction OF
Is warships, has been adopted by the
naval board of experts to whom the
subject had been referred by Secretary
Long. 1t provides for three seagolng
barbet-turret battleships Of $4,000 tons
displacement and minimum Of 49,
knots speed when the vessels are loaded
to their deepest draught, or an average
speed above 10 knots under ordinary
cruising conditions; three frst-class
armored cruisers OF $4,000 tons and %
knots speed; three second-class pro-
tected and arnored cruisers of 5000
tons displacement and 20 knots speed,
similar to the Maine type, but highly
improved, aud for six protected cruis-
ers of 1880 tons and I6 knots speed.
The reduced speed of these ships was
brought about by the desire to secure
unprecedented range of action on ae
count of the increased responsibilities
of the United States in the Pacific and
the certainty that these vessels or most
of them would be acquired to make up
the fleet in that ocean. The sacrifice of
speed to endurance was made with a
view to securing vessels of at least 5000
knots radius, or capable of steaming
straightway from San Francisco to Ma
Mia and Samoa.
