THE CALL FOR TROOPS
win Doubtless BE Issued by the Pres
ident This Afternoon


Washington, April 21-The topic OF
absorbing interest in military circles
yesterday was the expected decision of
the president and Secretary Alger upon
the question of how to place the vol
unteer forces at the service of the gov
ernment. No less than three consulta-
tions were held yesterday at the White
House on this subject, but 1t was
finally announced that it would not be
possible to issue the expected call for
volunteers until this afternoon. The
district militia forces have been Of
fered to the government by General
Harries and there is some expectation
that these will be the first of the
militia forces TO be drawn into the gov
ernment service. other events of the
day at the war department were the
return to Washington and report of
the artillery expert who inspected the
southern fortifications, and the ap-
pointment of some new aides on the
staff of General Miles. The ordnance
bureau also made another heavy requi-
sition for funds.
The present expectation is that Cen
eral Miles, commanding the army, will
leave the city on Saturday for tour
of inspection of the points where the
regular army will be mobilized i'm the
south. He will be accompanied by a
number of aides, and the first stop
will, it is said, be at Chickamagua
battlefield After spending some time
there the general will proceed to the
other points, returning thereafter to
Washington. The trip will be primarily
one for inspection purposes, besides
which it will give General Miles and
his aides much information respecting
the conditions existing at various
points for assembling the militia.
General A. w. Greedy, chief signal
officer, has detailed Lieutenant Joseph
E. MaXfield, stationed at New York,
to take charge Of all matters pertain
ing to the question of providing bal
looms for the use of the army
Surgeon General Sternberg, of the
army has had applications for posi-
tiOns by over 1000 persons in the medi-
cal profession The surgeon general,
however, thinks the regular army med
ical corps is adequate for all present
purposes. In the event of the occupa-
tion of Cuba the department would
make an effort to obtain physicians
who are immune to yellow fever for
service there.
1t is said the war department is MAX
ing arrangements for purchasing an
additional number of machine rapid
fire guns in Europe.

SUBMARINE BOAT HOLLAND.
gan to fear that the Holland had dis
appeared never to rise again. Some
of the more sanguine of the Hollands
friends kept the doubtful Thomases in
good cheer by assuring them that the
boast was capable of staying down for
As hours, and that there was no fear of
her safety and that of the crew. One
of the lookOuts on the Linderman spied
the coming tower of the Holland about
a mile and a half to the eastward at
the end of 3S minutes but this appear
ance of the little craft was only mo-
mentary, for she disappeared again.
and at the end Of 5S minutes from the
time she first went down she bobbed up
serenely about two miles south Of the
black buoy, and her whistle footed
joyfully.
During the entire trial Of the diving
capabilities Of the boat the naval eX-
perts caught sight Of her only once,
and while they did not tell what their
opinion of her was, the fact that the
experts failed to locate the position, or
rather whereabouts of the boat, not
withstanding that they We're aware
that she must have been within a
radius Of three miles from where the
tugs were lying, they undoubtedly were
satisfied that the submarine boat could
easily steal a march on an enemy,
when she could play sad havoc.
A dummy projectile weighing about
so pounds, with a force of 600 pounds of
air pressure was sent a distance Of 400
yards. A dummy torpedo weighing
S26 pounds was quickly sent through
the expulsion tube in the boats stern
about 80 yards.
The boats endurance qualifications
are distance of 500 miles on the sur
face and As hours under water. If the
inventor builds other boats he will in
crease the motive power from 45 horse
power to 100 in the engines, which are
worked by gasoline, and it is expected
that the new boats will have a speed
of at least y knots an hour
