BRITAIN'S WAR SYSTEM
Being Studied by America With View
of Partial Adoption.

New York. July 25.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
Colonel William Carey Sanger, who has
been studying for months the British sys-
tenn of auxiliary forces, under instruc-
tons from Governor Roosevelt and from
Secretary Root, has completed his investi-
cations here and has started for SWitzer-
land with Mrs Sanger. He will probably
devote several weeks to examination of
the Swiss military service, which is unique
in Europe, being an anomalous but effec-
tive system of compulsory volunteering.
Colonel Sanger'S work in England has
been thorough and his report will include
comprehensive survey of the operation
of the British military system of regular
and auxiliary forces during the war in
South Africa
He has been especially interested in the
second line of British reserves, consisting
of militia, volunteers and yeomanry and
the information which he has collected
will have a direct bearing upon the Amer
lean problem of establishing a. homogen-
eOus reserve, or auxiliary force for the
army through the cooperation of the fed
era1 and state authorities, when the rela-
lions of the national guard to the regular
army have been determined.

Gen. Chaffee Made Trip to Japan in
p Days.


New York, July 25.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The most important and interesting
official news received by the war oe-
partment from the Orient TUESDAY was
a dispatch saying that the transport
Grant had been sighted IN the 1nIandS
sea of Japan, and would reacn NagdS-
aki at an early hour today, twenty-five
days out from San Francisco ApoaIu
the Grant are Major General ChaIIee
(Who will learn of his promotion 10 lhat
rank as soon as he steps aShOre,) IWo
suuadrons of the Sixth cavalry and
battalion of marines. General ChaiLee
will receive Geographic adVlceS from
the secretary of war Whlch VIII nasLen
the departure of the Grant Tor 1ahu'
where she will probably arrive on sat
urday. 1t is expected that General
Chaffee, after a conference with Al
miral Remey, will Immediately ProGtG;eSb
to Tien Tsin leaving the troops when
accompanied him to follow as quickly
as practicable. 1t is expected that tne
transports with two battallonS OF the
Fourteenth infantry and Re1lly,s pat
terry of the First artillery from Manila,
will reach Tien Tsin by the time Gen
eral Chaffee arrives there. AFTER hl5
conference with Admiral Remey ana
the commanders of the military FORCES
at Tien Tsin, General Chaffee Will
promptly and fully advise the war de-
Datrment in regard to the details OF the
situation and the prospect OF an carry
kin. 1t is understood that his instruct
tions contemplate that he shall do all
he can with due regard, OF course, TO
military considerations, to promote as
early an advance as practicable, ana II
is expected that in doing this he VIII
act with the hearty cooperation OF the
other commanders of the international
forces.
That the military preparations of the
United States for the rescue of Minister
Conger and other American citizens in
China, if they are still alive, and for
the protection Of other American inter
ests there will be pressed as vigorously
as ever pending the suppression OF the
disorders which the imperial govern
ment has virtually confessed it's in
ability to quell is evident both from
the presidents dispatch to the emperor
and from the vigor and energy with
which such preparations are being
pushed. 1t is now conceded that bat
terry o of the Seventh artillery, now at
Fort Riley, Kan, under orders for Ma
Mia. will probably be diverted to to
North China This battery is equipped
with siege guns. Owing to the great
size and weight of these guns and their
carriages, their removal to China is
formidable undertaking and will re-

A DISTILLING SHIP.
Built for Use in Spanish War Will be
Sent to China.

New York, July 25.-The distiIIing
ship Arethusa will reach the Brooklyn
navy yard from Philadelphia today
and will take on a cargo of general
stores, field guns and other ordnance.
While no great amount of stores will
be sent from the yard it is thought
that shipments sent from other yards
will make this cargo one of the largest
ever shipped from the navy yard. These
shipments will nOminally be made to
the Philippines, although it is consid-
them will be sent to China, where the
field guns particularly are badly
needed.
AS the Arethusa will undoubtedly
form part of Admiral Remeys Chinese
fleet, the fact that she is a distilling
ship will make her a valuable addi-
ton to the Asiatic squadron, fresh
water in China being a. scarcity. She
was fitted up for use in the Spanish
war, but before she was ready HOSTILE
tics aid ended and she was mOored
a. the League Island yard in ordinary
for more than year. AS soon as there
was danger of trouble with China she
was overhauled and made ready for
service. and having a. large capacity
she has considerable cargo room, is
an excellent sea- ship, and is in every
way fitted for her new service. The
Arethusa will remain at the navy yard
about ten days.
The Rainbow, now lying in ordinary
at the yard, will probably see service

CALIFORNIA CROPS.
Yield of Grain and Fruits Exception
ally Good This Season.

San Francisco, July 25.-Information
received by the Examiner from all parts
of the state in regard to the condition of
the crops this season indicates that a
very good average of production will be
maintained. From some sections there
have come reports of failures but they
are not SO material as to detract from
what will evidently be a standard of
general excellence. FrOStS and late
rains have in some cases caused severe
damage. In the southern part of Cali
fOrnia the yield of deciduouS fruits will
not be near as large as was expected. OF
citrus fruit there will eb ample output.
San iDegoS supply of lemons will be
double what it was a year ago.
In the northern part of the state the
late frosts were instrumental in slightly
damaging some of the fruit, but the yield
will still be large The reports on grain
are generally encouraging, the instances
where failures is noted not being serious
enough to make any great difference in
the supply. Altogether the prospect APP
pears to eb one OF a most satisfactory
character.

New York, July 25.-The Tribune
says: The drouth which has prevailed
generally in the New England states
and in New York, New Jersey and Del
aware since March, has had a serious
effect on many of the crops, many of
the recent local showers a.ffording little
relief to the farmers.
In New York state the hop crop is
seriously affected and the yield will be
less than it has been for many years
The farmers also report a great short
age in the hay crop, and scarcity of
food for cattle throughout the coming
winter is anticipated.
In middle and southern New England
the continued lack of rain is threaten
ing the late crops, and in Massachu-
sets the early corn crop is failure.
