FIRST REPORT.
Military Secretary of the Army Is
Heard From.

Washington, Nov. 1O.-The annual
report of Gen. F. c. Ainsworth, the
military secretary of the army, the
first issued from his office since it's
creation by congress at its last Ses-
sion, gives the total strength of the
army at the close of the last fiscal year
at 1871 officers and 6S,946 enlisted
men. The loss of officers from death,
dismissal, retirement and other causes
was 1856. The number of enlisted men
lost by death was 456.
A reduction in the number of ma
lariaI fever cases at West Point is at
tributed to an attack made on the
mosquitoes. Speaking of the discipline
of the cadets, the report says it is be-
lieved that the close observance of the
regulations governing the treatment of
| fourth class men is due as much to an
increasing disposition to yield ready
observance to the authorities as to the
results of disobedience. The average
cost of SubsiSting cadets was stated to
be 64.3 cents, as against $50 cents
the previous year. This increase in
COST the report recites, twas partly
due to the unusually high prices of all
food supplies, and partly to the main
tenance of an extra table during the
active athletic season. and to the visits
of instruction made by the classes dur
ing the year"
OF the 27,3SO recruits enlisted dur
ing the past fiscal year, 3 ,662 were for
eign born. Complaints to the num-
Der of unsatisfactory recruits are said
to be unusually numerous.
Speaking of the militia. it is said
that very satisfactory progress has
been made towards bringing the or
ganized militia, respecting armament
equipment and discipline. up to the
standard of the regular army. A total
of $3.50 officers and S3.102 enlisted
men of the militia organizations were
present at the inspections.
Referring to the act of congress
providing for a roster of officers and
enlisted men of the union and confed-
crate armies, the report says that the
responses of the governors addressed,
inviting their cooperation, have been
such as to assure the department that
they fully appreciate the importance
of the work and will cooperate heart
lily with the department in its efforts
to give the confederate soldier the
place that is due him in the proposed
cOmpilat ton.

Authority to go ahead with the work
was given recently when President Il
p Ripley passed over the Ottawa cut

The work of laying the second track

remaining link to be completed after
this work is disposed of will be the 81
miles between H. u. Tower and Ken
ton. This stretch of 81 miles will be in
cluded in the budget for next year 5
work and viii be one of the first things
to be begun as soon as the work opens
up in the spring.
The work of getting in the founda-
tions for the two steel bridges over the
NeOshO and Cottonwood rivers is being
rushed as fast as possible in order that
these bridges may be put in this fall
before frost will prevent further work
The tracklaying will be pushed vigor-
Ously.
next spring which will give the Santa
re QOuDle track between AdAlSdS 0ilS
and Florence, it is planned to take up
on the following year the extension of
the double track from Florence to
Newton.
The company already has a double
track out from Newton east a distance
of two and a half miles for the use of
trains in clearing the freight yards at
Newton while waiting for a passing
train at that point
The main line of the road from EN-
poria to Holiday via Topeka will not
be double tracked. The heavy through
freight traffic is all routed via the cut
off which makes it unnecessary for a
double track for the main line With
the completion of the work planned for
next spring. the Santa F'e will have
double track from Kansas City to Holli-
poria and two tracks from Emporia to
Florence.
It is deemed important to complete
the work of double tracking all of the
line between Kansas City and EmpOria
before any other work is done for the
reason that at Florence all freight is
diverted to and from the Gulf lines and
Texas.
Aside from this work and some re-
laying of present track with heavier
steel it is quite likely that not much
Improvement work will be carried out
in Kansas next year. 1t is true that
