APPROACH TO BALTIMORE.

The artillerists on shore will be distributed In
the same manner as would be done with 5000
troops in three artillery districts confronted
with the expectation of an attack by an enemy
on the sea. 1t will be necessary, of course TO
adopt certain rules approved by both SIDES, Tor
convenience and in order to avoid interference
with commercial and other conditions. For In
stance in view of the narrow approach to Balt1-
more, which is dredged channel, and the faciil-
ties which this channel affords for mining or
obstructing, the operation of forcing the channel
or running by the forts is not deemed practl-
cable Destroyers and other small vessels sent
up the channel will be regarded as moving TAR
gets for the purpose of testing the range hndlng
system and the searchlight, and not as engaged
batteries Forts in the three districts will be
modified on a war basis, allowing two reliefs
for each gun emplaced, with such additional men
as may be needed to furnish three reliefs for the
range finders and the complete complement re-
ouired for the submarine defences.
The enlisted men and officers of the torpedo
school at Fort Totten will be employed in the
defence of Baltimore and Washington. General
J. P. Story has made this recommendation, and
as chief of artillery his views on the subject or
the disposition of troops will prevail. He also
objected to rule which prohibited the artillery
from getting such information as 1t may of the
war vessels operating in Chesapeake Bay. 1t
was pointed out that in time of war it would
be possible to obtain much information con-
cerrling the ships of enemy, and 1t was held
that an equal amount information. such as
could be obtained from records in the possession

PORTABLE SEARCELIGHTS.

Still another feature which will be tested
under practical conditions Of service in the
mock war Of middle June will be the new porta-
bic searchlight. 1t was discovered in the manoeu-
vres of two years ago that the gunfire Of naval
ships was directed with what would have been
telling effect if the shots were real, account
Of the stability of the searchlghts. In the COM
ing war game these lights will not remain in
one place. They will be mounted on cars. and,
In that way their location can be changed, in
addition to which their removal will prevent
their destruction by shot from the fleet. This
is condition which must be guarded against,
for while Rear Admiral Dickins would not in

NAVY WILL TRY TRICKS.

On board the naval ships there will be practice
in the training Of guns, in the formation ol
ships for the running of forts, in the concentra-
ton of gUnfire, in the employment OF torpeuo
boats for gaining information and in marking
the safe course among the submerged mines
1t will be important for the navy to take
part in exercises of this kind although SO rhuch
is finally left in question, even with the ar,
bftrary decisions of the umpires. Ihere are an al.
sorts of tricks which can be tested 10 tnelI
limit by the naval people, and 1t is certain tfat
the cover of night and the obscurat1on py los
will be avaed of by the naval fleet TO carry
out their part of the problem. 1t can never pe
