LONDON. July 4.-Forty years ago q
hotel near the Strand which contained 100
bedrooms was the largest in London. To-
day there are 100 great hotels in central
London with about 800 rooms each.
Yet 1t was found impossiblesto accom-
modate the vast number of visitors who
came to London to see the white city and
journey to Ascot TO take part in the Pan
Anglican congress and to enjoy the mag
nificent spectacle provided by the great
horse show at Olympia. This month
when the Olympic games at Shepherds
Bush attract a new host OF visitors from
the provinces and abroad. the congestion
will be still more acute.
In the 100 great hotels referred to 49,

The 1900 guests at these hotels are, il

huge army of visitors now in London. To

ARMY AND NAVY NEWS

and it is upon this point that the experts
differ in opinion. Some of them say that
the rotation of the shell would have an
effect at the point of impact altogether
different from what is the case when the
range is short, notwithstanding the re-
ducet velocity. 1t is appreciated by the
naval authorities that the discussion will
go indefinitely and with more or less
viSor until there is firing at long distance
This is not possible at Sandy Hook but
1t Is believed it can be carried out on
the Potomac river. of course, under such
arrangements will preclude disaster to
passing craft.
Two Good Fighting Names.
George lAaMountain and II. V. Labom-
bard of New York have been admitted to
the Naval Academy at Annapolis on the
nomination of Representative Malby Of

Paw of Mounted Militiamen.

The War Department has approved the
opinion of the judge advocate general of
the army on the question of the pay OF
certain officers of the organized militia
under the terms Of the act of May ii last
II has been decided that militia officers
below the grade of major who provide
themselves with mounts by so doing De-
come entitled to the additional pay pro-
yided in the statute for officers or their
rank and grade. If the Secretary of War
decides that regimental and battalion
staff officers are required to be mounted
the effect will be to entitle them 10 the
additional pay provided by law Ihe act
Of May II has no application to chap
lain with the grade OF major so far as ad-
ditional pay for owning horses is con-
cerned. Chaplains with the rank OF cap
tain and lieutenant are entitled To the pay
of those grades in the army. No provision
has thus far been made by law or regula-
ton in respect to their ownership or
horses and they have been generally re-
garded as dismounted officers.
Long-Range Tests on Potomac.
An important naval test is contemplated
by the naval ordnance officers at the prov
ing ground at Indian Head. Md. For a
long time there has been much discussion
among the experts as to the effect OF
long-range firing on armor. The facili-
ties at the naval proving ground at In
dian Head and the army proving ground
at Sandy Hook y. j., do not permit of
firing at ranges which resemble conditions
of actual war. Something like the con-
ditions are approached by reducing the
velocity to give the projectile the force
at the shorter range it would presumably
possess IT. the shell had travelled 5000
wards or more. Under these conditions
the plate is tilted so to carry out
theoretically the direction the shell would

1t is ordered by the War Department
that during coast artillery service practice
all enlightenment doors and windows of
the battery that is firing shall be kept
open. This is stated to be simply pre-
cautionary measure and intended to pre-
vent the loosening of the door hinges and
the breaking of window panes.
Large Contracts for Tenting.
The War Department has awarded
| contracts for cotton duck for tenting
to be used by the army during the COM
ing year. The contract calls for cotton
duck of three grades and provides that
1t shall be awarded to three different
firms. The successful bidders are all
New York firms, although 1t is under
stood they represent manufacturers, and
, in this way the Consolidated Cotton
Duck Company of Baltimore will likely
get it's share. although the cotton duck
company does not appear as an indi-
vidual bidder. The successful bidders
were Fred S. Bennett, Otto Goetze Com
York. The total calls for an expendi-
ture of about $35O,000. About $1,000. 900
was authorized by Congress for cotton
duck supplies.

concerning two impudent tramps

aged to get the slugs mixed,
with the following results:
The bride entered at the right
escorted by her brother, who
knocked at the door demading
something to eat. She was beau
tifully gowued in gray travelling
costume. The groom wore the
conventional suit for such
affairs, a ragged brown corduroy
suit, a soiled shirt and a batter
ed derby hat and was accom-
panied by a fierce-looking bull.
dog. Both were dirty and un.-
kempt. They left town in a side
door sleeper of a local freight
train followed by showers of
rice ,old shoes and good wishes.
If they are caught here again
they are likely to be roughly
handled by indignant citizens.
