OF THE BRITISH FORCES
sTARTLEs THE HOUSE
OF LORDS.

LONDON. July 1.-THE armed
forces OF Great Britain as a body are
as absolutely united and unprepared
for war" declared Field Marshal Rob
erts in the House OF Lords. "as they
were when the South African war
broke out. The lessons OF that war
have been forgotten"
BY such alarming statements Lord
Roberts, formerly the COMMANDMENT
Chief of the British Army. startled
the House of Lords.
The Earl of wemyss and March had
introduced resolution denying Pre-
mier Balfour's statement that armed
invasion of Great Britain is impossi-
BILE and urging the necessity OF keep
ing up enough land forces to repel any
possible invasion.
During the discussion. in a long.
well-considered speech. Lord Roberts
emphatically uttered such frank, re-
pugnant truths as:
81 deliberately express my opinion
as practical soldier that the military
force of Great Britain is inadequate.
imperfectly trained. even totally un-
At to uphold Great Britain as first
class power.
For this shameful state of affairs
do not blame the government, but
I do attack the people of England,
who display no national feeling to-
ward the military until danger arises.
Then the soldier is the pet OF the peo-
ple. but this affection for him is only
an evanescent enthusiasm which en-
tails no self-sacrihce and passes away
as soon as the danger disappears.
"The question is Of the life or death
of the empire, the issue of which de-
ponds upon Great Britain being ready
10 defend the eastern possessions and
at the same time to take part In any
affair nearer home. Either OF these
necessities placing In the field an
army as large and as efficient as that
of any European country. all of which
may be considered nations in arms.
II appeal to the country to awake to
its danger to take hold of the army as
o great national issue upon which
Great Dritain's very existence depends.
Either every Engilshman must per-
sonally take part in his country's de-
tense or he must help to make those
who have the responsibility to mako
her defense efficient in every way"
After Lord Roberts strong speech
the government decided not to oppose
L ord Wemyss' resolution, which was
adopted without opposition.

THE LOST HAVE BEEN FOUND
Three Young Men For Whom Search
Has Been Made Were
Found Yesterday.
WERE AT CHESAPEAKE BEACH
WITH THE BOAT.
Captain Martin Recognized The
"Harry" Although Name
plate Was Gone.

The oathoat Harry, which was
rented on Friday, September to three
/ young men Tor a three DAYS outing
| by her owner, Captain Burtis. OF this
/ city, Tho has since been searching
| nigh and low for his property and the
| youths who hired her, was yesterday
| located at Chesapeake Bach by Can
| tain Q. L. Martin, of this city.
The youths had removed the name
| plates from the port and starboard
| bows OF the craft, but claimed that one
of these had been rubbed off by vio-
lent contact with the wharf at Chosa.
peake Baech They were not known
personally Co Captain Burtis. who
rented them the boat without any de-
posit upon the mutual recommenda-
tion of mutual friend. Upon being
accosted by Captain Martin the youths
partially admitted their guilt and
were taken in charge by Captain Mar
tin and the chief of police at the re-
sort
To those gentlemen the boys gave
their names as +. NJ Strawn, of 1888
Columbia Road, N W.. Washington.
ID. c., and Maynard o. Burrell of
Wisconsin avenue, Cleveland Park. ID.
.. The other youth had been sent
TO Washington on Saturday with all
the available money in the crowd TO
procure funds TO take them all to their
homes The third fellows name was
said TO be A. Mills Taylor, of 1908
Glendon ayneue, Washington.
According to the story told by the
two who'were found with the boat Mt
Chesapeake Eeach, they left the Sow
ern river early in' the week and after
severe trip, during which they had
once to beach the Harry, " they final
ly reached Chesapeake Beach on We'd
nesday night, where they had since
been without any provisions and no
money TO get any or TO proceed furth-
er. On Saturday Taylor was given
all the money in the crowd, amount
ing to bare car fare from Ohesa-
peake Beach TO Washington, and he
promised, it is said, to get money and
| return to his comrades on Sunday.
Captain Martin, after recognizing
the boat and getting a confession from
the other two BOYS, waited about the
resort until the last train from the
Capitol arrived and as the messenger
did not return he advanced the two
yy6o9nng fellows who were still with the
the Harry. Mr.. Harry Waysoti,, WHO
was also at the Beach, took charge of
| the catboat and sailed her back to this
city, where he turned her over to her
owner. The two boys to whom Cap
/ tain Martin advanced car fare, prom
ised to repay him by Thursday If he
would let them go.
The impression prevails that the
! youngsters were trying to get the
Harry TO Washington by way of the
| Potomac river, but their plans mis-
| carried on account of the money and
| provisions giving out
