Not understanding this, we mistake

the facts. We look over our church

represent the amount of piety in that

many most consecrated souls that are
not found in churches. Look into

problem, for it is believed that the island
is bedrock, and to remove it would be a
task of enormous proportions. AS a pre-
liminary to any further progress in this
party, and until the result is learned moth.
Ing more will be done in this direction.
Among other improvements in view is the
erection of an immense supply depot, a
central agency for the army posts and
camps in all parts of the world. The scheme
Is merely tentative now and has not
reached the stage where plans can be drawn
to embody the boards ideas. Should the
board decide to erect other buildings there
will be no ack of room.
The board is also considering either the
enlargement Of the present barracks or the
erection of new quarters. The quarters
will easily accommodate a battalion of
soldiers. and it is thought advisable to in
crease these facilities. But, with sufficient
room for a battalion Of men, the officers
quarters are now inadequate. There are
good reasons for believing that the boards
report will include a recommendation for
som additional houses and buildings.

PLAN FOR BIG SUPPLY DEPOT.
Naval Transport Service in Need Of
Enlargement. 80

New York, July 2s.-Plans for enlarging
the facilities of Governors Island. in New
York harbor, and making 1t one OF the
best equipped military establishments in
the world, as well as a center of the trans
port service in this country. are now under
way The work is under the direction of a
board comprising Major General John r.
Brooke, commanding the department Of the
east; Colonel Gillespie Of the engineer de-
partment. and Colonel Amos s. Kimball,
assistant quartermaster general. These
officers were selected by Secretary of War
Root some time ago, to survey the field
and present their recommendations to the
war department.
The first meeting was held in General
Brooke's Office a day or two ago, and an
other will be held the early part of the
week.
One of the first problems taken up was
that OF removing the transport service
depot from South Brooklyn to the island
and making it the central depot OF the
country, with vastly increased room and
facilities, and more convenient Of access.
One great difficulty confronts the board
in the proposed change-that of securing q
sufficient dockage depth around the island
to admit the draught of the big army
transports. Some of these transports draw

No g%unpowder has been exported from
the United States to China, Hong Kong
or Japan since 1897. China took nearly
twice as many tirearms from the United
States in the last six months OF 1899 as
she did in the preceding fiscal year and
about four times as many as she did in
1896 or 1898.
Hong Kong took nearly as many in the

twelve months ended June 80, 1899, and
nearly three times as many as it did in

good many Of the firearms exported to
Hong Kong found their way into the
hands of the Filipino insurgents. The
total exports of firearms and munitions
of war to Asiatic countries from the
United States cut a small figure as COM
pared with similar exports from Europe
to the same countries. For example, in
the last nnual report Of Consul Rags

within the last three months Ger
