Washington, December L.
BAR ON SEARCHLIGFITS.-Th navigators Of
harbors and rivers in the neighborhood of the coast
fortifcauons have complained to the War Depart
ment of the practice of the artillery chiefs IN
charge of the searchlights Of throwing such Ignls
upon their ships much to the annoyance OF those
board. It has been ordered from the War De-
partment that greater care be exercised in the
operation of searchlights mounted at the coast
forts. 1t Is very well known that light of this
kind is apt to lead to serious consequences since 1t
sometimes blinds the at the wheel. The army
searchights will. therefore, be used only when 1t Is
absolutely necessary and will be directed toward
those ships used by the government for artillery
purposes. Whenever any other vessel Is lighted IN
this way the light will be removed so soon as the
identity of the ship is disclosed so soon as the
usual alarm whistles sounded The artllleflStS
say the Searchght has to have prominent
place in the operations of the guns at night, ana
is now regarded absolutely essential in the
location of target It is also necessary 10 conduct
constant practice with the lights that the oper-
ators may have every opportunity to perfect them
selves in their management. Every coast fort Will
equipped with more of the scare nJS
and some o. the plants will be of great power.
