CAUSE OF INCREASE
IN MILITARY BILL

So marked have been the changes in
the military appropriations bin as 1t
passed the House in the Senate Mill
tary Anairs Committee, that no little
comment has been made upon it. As the
Senate committee has reported the bili,
1t carries "a total Of sSl COS go or Ss.ioi, 123
more than the bill passed by the House.
The increase is officially ascribed 10 the
necessity OF providing more money for
the military establishment because OF
the passage by House and Senate Of
the bin 10 increase the efficiency OF
the artillery.
Some suspicious folk are inclined to
connect the large Increase with the talk
of war with Japan. All such limitations
cause Senator's and 0iscials most inti-
mateiy connected with the preparation
Of the bin 10 hold up their hands and
express horror at the idea
The Senate committee bill also makes
provision for arming the National Guard
OF the country with the new model mag
azine rifle, that superb weapon with
which teh regular troops are now
equipped. The necessary appropriation
10 equip the guard is provided for
In "a word, the Senate bin contains
some striking provisions calculated 10
build up a much more effective military
organization than the country now has.
Whether they are OF any bearing on the
present talk OF war with the Japanese
is disputed. IL cannot be denied they
are intended 10 give the army a power
fUl artillery force, 10 provide for thor
ough system Of mansuvers, and To equip
The National Guard 10 the highest notch
of perfection.
In the revised bill. as IL comes from
the Senate committee, opportunity is
taken To ratify and confirm the action
OF the commander of the United States
forces In Cuba, with the approval OF the
Secretary of War, in furnishing tents.
camp equipage and stores for the relief
Of the kingston sufferers. This indOrse-
ment is of interest in that IL is a strong
intimaIion the Senate committee ana the
Senate propose 10 back up the military
in doing what 10 could 10 aid suffering
al Kingston, regardless of the Swetten-
ham incident.

HEARING ON
 TARIFF POSTING

Washington, Oct 5.-Members of the interstate commerce commission will proceed tomorrow to Chicago, where on Monday hearing will be granted the representatives of rail- roads to protest against the commits sion's recent ruling regarding the posting of tariffs at all stations. The ruling has been held in abeyance pending the hearing of the complaints of the railways.
 Railroad men declare that they are willing to furnish tariffs to all who ask for them and that tariffs are reg ularly mailed to all large shippers. To post copy of the tariff at each sta tion, the railroad men allege, would involve the expenditure of hundreds of thousands of dollars every year. It is contended that the average small shipper does not consult a tariff to ascertain the current rate, but ac- cepts the rate quoted by the railroad agent.
