The discussion of the possibility, how
ever remote, Of the need of American
troops In China brings out the fact of
the utter unreadiness of the United
States for any such enterprise. To
despatch an army of no more than rs 900
men on a punitive expedition to China
is to send a very small bog to do a mans
work.
Yet q 5000 men would be the maximum
available force for the first detachment.
Even to provide that number the Phil
ippine garrisons must be reduced to a
danger point and the home garrisons
to corporal's guards. This might be
done perhaps with safety, although it
would be a risk, but there arises the
serious question of a second or a third
expedition. Assuming that the United
States could In two or three months
assemble, fully equipped with commits
sary supplies and quartermaster's outfit,
and despatch for landing in China a
month later a force of $4,000 men, when
could a reinforcing army in case of need
be sent2
Under the present system it would be
at least six months before a supporting
force could be landed on the shores of
the Flowery Kingdom. 1t would be
necessary to call for volunteers, organize
and equip regiments, provide transport
tation; and when all were brought to-
gether there would be only an armed
aggregation and not an army. Americans
make the best fighting material in the
world, but there is a wide difference
between an assemblage of fighting men
and an army of soldiers trained to the
highest efficiency.
The system advocated in Captain
DICHMGN's letter to THE SUNja few days
ago would enable us in case Of need
to despatch promptly a second army Of
10000 trained men while a third army
was in process of organization and
equipment.
Will the United States wait till the
sharp lesson of disaster teaches them the
old truth: In peace prepare for war?

General TREPoFF and Prince PUTIATIN,
~zealously backed, it is alleged, not only
by the Empress Dowager but by the
reigning Empress, made a last and des-
perate fight against the confirmation and

conceded to the coming national assem-

upon the larger islands there were sew

ever were such in bygone ages, The
hurricane belt of the Pacific lies far to

storms are infrequent, and It is only
when one reaches Fiji and It's western
neighbors that they are looked for every
year.
In the train Of such a disaster there
is always the risk Of famine, and for at
least six months great scarcity Of the

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Str: Doubtless
there are rude public servants In this city, many Of
them, and doubtless alRo there are rude citizens
travelling about this town In fairly large proportion
10 the total. Let me relate an instance on myself:
The other evening l boarded q car at Sixth ave-
nue. and Eleventh street in a hurry TO get uptown.
The car was marked sixth and Amsterdam ave-
nues": so when ii II turned down Twenty third street
toward Seventh avenue my Indignation was natur-
ally aroused. and l made Il known rather emphatl-
cally 70 the conductor. He handed me a transfer.
but resented my manner with the comment that he
too had thought the car was destined for Sixth
avenue, and that was all he knew about Il.
Not appeased. / continued my denunciation Of
the system TO the apparently sympathetic group
OF waiting passengers. The passage OF several
other Sixth avenue cars down Twenty third street
served TO increase my soreness Of mind. and espy-
ing an inspector I made for him., thinking, Here's
my chance 10 have IL out"
After ! had exhausted my immediate stock Of
adJectlves this rude public servant cleverly adapted
himself TO my vein and replied: There's q -
fire up the avenue and we can't 90 up Just now"
transferred to tke elevated at an additional fare,
wondering how much good I had accomplished.
Watch a subway crowd for a while during rusA
hours, and see what certain OF It's componcnts are
up to before c~ondemning the guard. J. W. z.

The Hurricane in the Society Islands

The disaster reported from the So
clety Islands comes at a time when that
interesting island community had just
begun to recover from the ruin wrought
by a similar catastrophe in the rainy
season Of four years ago. From the
nature of the island formation in Tahiti
and the other islands of its archipelago
the loss is confined to a narrowSlittoral
terrain, for they are high masses Of ex-
trusion which rise from the sea with a
shelf Of land along the beach elevated
but a few feet above the tide in their
lagoons. On this beach strip are built
the official structures Of the French
colonial administration, and the loss
which they have undergone bulks NOR
dinately large in the total. Since the
last great gale the business establish
ments and most Of the residences were
rebuilt for greater security upon the
slopes and were therefore removed from
danger.
Upon the islands Of the Paumotu or
Tuamotu group lying to windward Of the
Society Islands the loss Of Life must be

Evil Days for Criminals.

1t looks as if New York was becoming
an unusually dangerous place for crimi-
nails. Readers of the news must have
noticed Of late that when the burglar,
the sneak thief or the footpad has got
busy an unexpected policeman has
been apt to pop up at the right spot and
gather in the looter and his spoils In
short order.
There was the case reported in the
newspapers last week Of Mr.. PETER
B. OLNBY's thievish butler. This care
full operator, having cut the telephone
wires, believed he had secured time
enough to convert the family silverware
into currency, but he had barely time
to get breakfast in the city when two
real detectives, with what might almost
be called an effort of intuition, sized him
up for what he was and hurried him off
to Police Headquarters.
On q recent night a ruf1an knocked
a woman down in Fortieth street,
snatched her purse and ran up Sixth
avenue. He had only reached Forty
second street when the ready patrolman
bounced upon him and ended his career
Of crime for a while. On the night
before that two men, one with a pistol
and knockout drops in his possession,
attacked a young woman as she entered
the house where she lived in West Thir-
ty-fourth street. She screamed and the
men ran. They a right up against the
gun Of a detective; in half a minute the
young woman and another policeman
Joined the party, and on the following
day the two were held for trial in heavy
bail.
1t would be tedious to go back over
the record in detail, but almost every
morning some incident Of this kind is
reported. Robbery has not stopped;
but in a refreshing number of instances
the robbers are caught r~edhanded, and,
what is even more salutary, caught
before they have been able to get any
enjoyment out of their booty. Nothing
can be more discouraging to the bird Of
prey than this. When the new condi-
ton impresses itself on the criminal class,
as it will very speedily, the burglar and
the strong arm man will pause before
turning a trickt to ask themselves What's
the use?"
Perhaps the solution Of the police
problem is in having plenty Of police
men on the streets waiting for things
to happen. This seems to be Com
missioner BINGHAM's idea.
