The cadets are uniformed and armed with
cavalry carbines, and have regimental

small hospital and signal corps in connec-

In the parade the Carlisle cadets were
preceded by six celebrated Indian chief
tains, red men of the old school,
arrayed in their native costumes of blan-
kets and feathers and war paint. First
among these historic. aborigines came
Geronimo, the Apache and renegade, who
euded Gems. Miles and Crook, and who
gave Maj. Wade the race of his life across
the mountains of Arizona and New Mexico
With him were Buckskin Charlie OF the

no other nation ever thought of max
ing such preparations for training. what
might be called its cheapest labor. in
expeditions methods of work. Here were
long lines OF men doing nothing for
hours together except shoveling. They
were not shoveling coal, but large stones
and pebbles supposed to represent coal.
into a series of ovens The pebbles were
dumped, from time to time, upon an iron
floor. The men then shoveled them back
again into the supposed furnaces of war
ships. Hour after hour this work went
on, the stokers seeming to execute their
tasks with as much enthusiasm as if
actually on board war-ship and en-
gagged in hostile operations.
This explains the extraordinary means
Japan employs to train her stokers and
all other accessories to war-ship admins
tration. When a builder of battle ships
sends one of his creations on her trial
trip, he exercises the utmost care in the
selection of the stokers who are to tend
the furnaces. The adoption of water

He deals with conditions in actual battle
He says:
Early events of the hostilities in the
Far East and subsequent accounts of
various exploits, in all of which torpedoes
or submarine mines had prominent
part, have given rise to considerable dis
cussion as to the relative values of battle
ships and torpedo craft-especially the
larger type of torpedO-boat destroyers.
Some writers have gone SO far as to de-
clare the usefulness of the battle ship at
an end and to incur the expense of build
ing more sheer waste. 1t is too soon to
draw final conclusions from the teachings
of this war, but already there are signs

doned, in the minds of many people.
Although hundred and more tor
pedo-boats and destroyers have been
actually engaged for five months against
battle ships, exposed to attack times
without number, We have yet to learn
authoritatively of torpedo from tor

single battle ship. Those that have been
sunk owed their destruction to submarine
mines anchored or broken adrift, torpedo
vessels not contributing to the result.
except by the confusion and sense Of
greater danger due to their presence. 1t
is evident that in the final summary of
losses the achievements of torpedo vessels
will count less than was at first supposed.
1t cannot be claimed. therefore, that so
far there has been anything to discrcdit
the battle ship as a type; nor IS any such
outcome to be expected from this war,
whatever may be the casualties among
battle ships.
ITO wage successful warfare with a
New-York tribune., 1905-01-29

Such a risk always has been admitted,
and provision is made against it in the
construction of the vessels themselves by
the method of interior subdivision also
by giving squadrons of heavy ship the
protection afforded by torpedo-boat de
stroyers and other light vessels.
with regard to torpedo vessels, it will
be recalled that after the war with Spain
not a few persons said that the torpedo
boats were of 10 practical value for war
purposes The moral effect alone of the
torpedo, it is safe to say, will prevent
this opinion being further entertained,
notwithstanding that the tangible results
so far achieved by the automobile torpedo
are less than at first reported"
As shown by recent Message and Re
port, the President and Secretary of the
Navy practically indorse the views of
Admiral Converse.
The newspapers recently contained
cable dispatches announcing the final
destruction of the Russian fleet of bat
tie ships in Port Arthur harbor. That
end of a fine lot of ships fully iustihes
what | have said about the gage of
efficiency in fighting craft of all kinds.
Had the machinery of these ships been
in good condition, they could have dashed
out of that harbOr long ago, and some
of them ought to have escaped, because
the Russians Outnumbered the Japanese
in battle ships The operations at 2o3
Metre Hill appeal to me as conclusive
demonstration of the capabilities of heavy
guns, mounted on land, as coast defend
ers. Battle ships have no chance in a
fight with Notifications, properly equipped
with guns of equal or larger Caliber than
those afOat. Arguments against the use
of high-Caliber gurs on battle ships do not
apply to their effectiveness behind forti-
fications. am now more convinced than
ever in favor of the fast battle ship; but
a floating battery should not be a craft
that relied solely upon its colossal pro-
portions.
| hardly expect the war-ship of the
future to fully meet all the results gathered
from the lessons of Manila, Santiago and
Port Arthur. Amateurs and mounte-
banks will appear with extravagant and
fantastic projects that will divert atten-
tion and cost millions of good money. |
have painful remembrance of the dis
astrous effects of the Ericsson craze in
the Civil War, the blunGers of which are
not entirely outgrown. Prior to the
Rebellion, we had IN this country as wise
ship-builders as livcd-their equals are
not alive to-day! CThe American model
the clipper ship, the transatlantic packet

but there we're no other kinds, any

naval constructors of that period stood

builders to which | refer, but they were

was the only one that survived destruc-
tiol. | have a vivid recollection of the
extravagancies, prosecutions and threats
employed against naval officers, of staff

citizen who had the temerity to combat
the Ericsson craze.
