European Military Wen Marvel at
VII. rsos u.an tecounli-he

EuroneRn Military Wen Marvel at
What Has Been Accomplished.
Within so days 5000 American sol
diers have sailed through the Mediter-
ranean past the doors Of the nations OF
Europe. An object lesson in something
more than numbers has been given.
Ten months ago such possession as a
troopship was unknown TO the United
States government. All territory was
contiguous. The only transportation
with which the American Quartermas'
tiers were familiar was on land. When
the opening weeks Of the war found
troops modifying at Tampa, the gov
eminent was obliged to charter coast
wise craft scattered oil Of the way from
New York to New Orleans The boats
were Of various shapes and sizes. They
were hurriedly transformed into trans
ports. and Skaters expedition of H.
600 men got off for a three days steam
ing after what at one time threatened
TO be endless confusion.
Last week one of the new troopshlps
dropped anchor in Manila bay after
trip more than half way around the
world and in the season Of storms. OF
the .. 600 souls on board not one had
sustained an accident Of SO much as a
broken arm. When one Of these Ameri-
can trocpships stopped at Gibraltar
British officers asked the privilege OF
inspection. They went aboard and with
the thoroughness Of experts proceeded
to look over the arrangements TO the
smallest details They examined the
sleeping quarters the galleys the exer-
else spaces. the baths-in short, every
part of the ship And when they had
finished they told the American officers
that Great Britain, with all Of her ex-
perience in the water transportation OF
troops, had no transports 10 compare
with those which the American govern
ment had devised for the movement OF
soldiers to distant possessions They
marveled when told that 1000 men
had been conveyed across the ocean
without an accident They explained
that the British government never
moved such numbers Of soldiers on an
ocean voyage without expecting to lose
one or more disabled by accidents Incl
dent to sea travel.
With 6. 600 on the way to Manila by
the easterly route. the war department
has had 8. 600 on the water by the west
ern route An army Of American troops
is moving across the oceans bound for
common destination and the achieve
ment receives scarcely more than pass
ing attention in the United States To
other governments this easy execution
Of a great military transportation prob
lem is "a matter Of much more comment
and surprise than it is at home The
military journals Of foreign countries
are discussing il as they did some Of
the feats of the American army and
navy in the war with Spain This
movement of troops and munitions to
Manila from the United States is an
other in the series of eye openers for the
rest Of the world
