that the personnel of the organiza ton

owing to disagreements with the various
musical unions of the country IL is ex-
tremely difficult to get first-class men to
enlist for the pay now given musicians OF

moved to decline to re-enter the service
upon the expiration of their terms of en-
lfstment, having in view the fact that they
anticipate that they will be enjoined from
accepting outside engagements. 1t is only
by taxing up outside work that these mu-

earn In civil life. The considera ton of the

Report of Gen. Elliott, Com
mandant of the Marine Corps.
AT LOCAL BARRACKS
IMPROVEMENTS THAT HAVE
BEEN MADE AND ARE IN VIEW.
More Pay Recommended for the Mem
bers of the Marine Band, Whose
Status is Declared to Be Unique.

General Elliott, commandant of the
Marine Corps, in his annual report to the
Secretary of the Navy, made public today,
presents strong argument for an addition
to the corps of 2, 4S0 enlisted men to be d.
vided among the various grades. During
the past year no additions were made to- the
authorized strength of the corps. viz, 2IS
officers and 1852 enlisted men. General
Elliott says that the present force Is not
sufficient to properly perform the service
desired, to the end that government prop
erty contained in the various navy yards
and stations be adequately protected.
Referring to some of the special duties
devolving upon the corps. General Elliott
says that 800 marines are stationed In the
Philippines and battalion Of 420 men is
serving on the Isthmus of Panama. An
other battalion, it is said, will be required
for the naval station at Guantanamo, Cuba.
Naval vessels going into commission within
the next few months will require large
number of marines. In addition to which
attention is directed to the fact that new
posts have been established during the past
year at the naval station, Algiers, La, the
naval station, Honolulu. Hawaii, on the
Midway Islands, and an order has been

with the force at it's command" says
General Elliott, lit will be absolutely i'm
possible for the Marine Corps to meet the
various demands with which it is being con-
fronted. 1t will be observed that in the
foregoing no account has been taken of the
numerous ships which win be commissioned
within the few months next following
January 1, 1905. These vessels will all carry
large marine guards, 1t is anticipated, and
the necessity for SO supplying them Is an
additional factor to be considered when the
matter of increase in the enlisted personnel
is taken up"

The Russian navy is perhaps in a
little better condition than the Spanish
navy was in when the United States
got after it, but it evidently isn't any
thing to brag Of. 1t is asserted that
the recent accidents to the new Rus
sian battleship orel were due wholly to
the extraordinary Incompetence Of
scratch crew. For months past con-
siderations of general efficiency, and
particularly of efficiency Of the deck
officer, staffs and crews on board YES
sells ''for the Pacific" have been sub
ordinated to the necessity OF getting
the ships out to sea with the minimum
of delay. Russia had no sufficient sup
ply of qualified commanders, officers,
engineers, artifcers, or well-trained
sailors. Even when the Japanese struck
their first blow last February many
Russian ships in the Pacific were Still
short both in their officer and deck
compliments, while the shortage in
their engine and boiler rooms was a
matter of common knowledge in Rus
sian naval circles at home; although
fairly numerous drafts had been hasti-
" collected at Kronstadt, Libau, Sc
vastopol, and Nikolaieff, and dispatch
ed to Port Arthur by rail across ST.
IBERIA. When the time came for COM
missioning the vessels Of the second
Pacific fleet it was found that the bulk
Of the material available was Of indif-
ferent quality. The supply Of exper-
fenced engineers was especially def
cient. AS one way out of the difficulty,
engineers and boiler room men were
taken over from the volunteer fleet,
the Russian Steam Navigation, and
private companies. The volunteer feet
authorities got substitutes where they
could with queer results. Not long ago
two new torpedo-boat destroyers were
added to the Black Sea fleet. They
were warranted to make twenty-six
knots; they went sixteen. This result,
as the commanding admiral explained.
was due to the fact that the engine
room stats knew nothing about water
tube boilers.
Russia is big, and has evidently felt
too big. However the war turns out
she can learn much from little Japan,
and one of the things she can learn is
| to have her warships ready to fight.
