Testing Wire-Wrapped Ordnance.
The army ordnance bureau will short
ly test at Sandy Hook, N. j.. two 12-inch
wire-wrapped mortars of new design,
developed by the ordnance officers in
Washington. 1t has been found that by
strengthening the mortars by wire wrap
ping it is possible to reduce the weight
of 12-inch mortar about 30 per cent, as
compared with the mortars of that cali
ber now in service. Improvements have
also been made in the method of loading
the mortars so as to give greater fire
rapidity. 1t is the purpose Of Gen. Gro
zier, chief or ordnance. to construct six
teen of these mortars. They will be
placed In the new coast fortifications and
probably some of them will be sent to
the defense of the Hawaiian Islands and
of Manila bay.
Army ordnance officers are gratified
with the results of the preliminary test
of the new 6-inch rifles Of the wire
wrapped type. These guns are to be
further tested at the army proving
grounds at Sandy Hook, and much de-
pends upon these results in the exten sion
of this system of construction. The prin-
ciple Is expected by some enthusiasts to
bring about a revolution i'm heavy gun
In that 1t will be possible
to wrap the jackets of heavy guns with
wire instead of constructing them on
what is known as the "built-up'' method
Certain improvements have been made by
adopting superior quality of steel In
the tube. 1t has been found that not only
is the elastic strength of the gun in
creased. but there is saving of about
in weight, together with a re-
duction in the cost of manufacture.

Decrease of the Army.

The execution of the order limiting
the enlisted strength of the army to
$1,000 men by July l. 1910, will probably
be accomplished without difficulty, and,
IL was said at the War Department to-
day, without the reduction having any
appreciable effect on the usefulness of
the military force. The decrease Will
be distributed as evenly as possible, in
order that there may be no undue lack
OF enlisted men in anN branch. Most
commanding officers believe they are in
need Of more men. That is manifestly
the case with the Coast Artillery Corps,
the head of which. Gen. Arthur Murray.
will make recommendations to that effect
in his forthcoming annual report.
The reduction of 5000 men, according
10 the latest estimate Of the enlisted
strength. easily be brought about by
a decrease in the number of enlistments
during the next few months. The rate
of discharges in the regular army by ex
piration of terms of enlistment would
accomplish the reduction in three four
months if it We're necessary to apply
nearly 5000 men at the general recruit
ing stations not yet assigned to the va
rious branches of the army.
The order naming July / next as the
date when the military force must be re-
duced IS with view to having the es-
Inmates for maintenance which will go to
Congress next December prepared with
that decrease in mind. Those estimates
relating TO subsistence. transportation,
clothing and medical supplies cover the
next fiscal year, beginning July 1. The
reduction of the enlisted force of the
army will save the government about
sS,OOO,00O in the estimates for next year
and enable the Secretary of War to meet
the Presidents wishes for a reduction of
at least $o00O0.0O0 In the total estimates
for the maintenance of the entire mill
tary establishment.

 "lf Dr. David Starr Jordan pres- dent of the Stanford University. knew the real facts of nature, he would never have oaid any such thing. The little fsh hatches, after the egg has laid in the rapids. He drifts with the current toward the sea. Once outside he drifts with the Japan current. Who knows, perhaps he goes around the circle before he returns. Perhaps he feeds meanwhile on the trillions of sbrlmps that are found off the gulf of Cali fornia. This, I believe, is what the Chinook salmon does, and when spaw- ming time comes they return to the Columbia, breasting the current, in the vigor of maturity. as once, imma- ture, they drifted with it.
 In the meantime the Pacific Fish erman has nothing to say, except fl you don't believe it go and find out.

David Starr Jordan, the world $ greatest authority on fish entertains the tentative theory that the sockeye salmon, during the four years inter- vening between the time it leaves the Fraser River spawning grounds and returns, lives about ten miles off the west coast of Vancouver Island, about forty fee. under the surface of water a mile in depth. This discovery was made few weeks ago by Prof. Charles A. Glltert, professor of zoo- logy at Stanford University, student of the salmon for thirty years, and is the result of weeks of investigation spent on the North Pacific Coast, says the Pacific Fisherman.
 "The sockeye salmon is the most puzzling, contrary fish l ever hand led" said Dr. Jordan. Prof. Gill
 
 bert, several weeks ago, after-investi- gations conducted along the coast ot Washington and British Columbia, arrived at the tentative conclusion that the sockeye spends three years of its life ten miles off the west coast of Vancouver Island. There the water is mile deep.
 'He believes the salmon swims about thirty or forty feet under the surface and feeds on larvae and min- ute organisms. l concur with him in his theory. Don't, however, quote me as saying authoritatively that the salmon lives there. We are not fully satisfied on that point yet"
 This is the first venture that has ever been made as to where the sock. eye goes after he floats down the river into the sea. Already, however, their theory has been denied, and strange to say, the denial comes not from sockeye packer, but from F. A. Seufert, a Columbia River can neryman, whose specially is the pack ing of the Royal Chinook, Says MT.
