WILL URGE BIC
CHANCE IN ARMY
General staff Blames Ineficiency To
"Pork Barrel" Method Of Mill
tary Appropriations.

WASHINGTON Feb. 5.-The United
Press is able today to give the prin-
cipal features of the forthcoming re-
port of the special stan recommend
ing a reorganization OF the army and
definite military policy having for
its object the perfection OF a properly
proportioned lighting machine OF high
efficiency"
The report will censure the present
plan OF scattering the army in small
garrisons throughout the country and
will arraign the pork barrel" method
OF military appropriations, which is
held by the general staff to be one
OF the main causes of the alleged
present inefficiency OF the army.
Only the explicit ordrs of President
aft, II was learned by the United
Press today. prevented the report
from going in as a part OF the annual
report OF the secretary OF war. The
president desired that all cabinet Off
GERS cut down their estimates and
after the army estimates were pre-
pared, Secretary Dickinson made a
blanket reduction OF four millions In
the interest OF economy. The army
appropriation bill went to conference
yesterday and 1t is approximately as
estimated by the general stan.
The changes desired by the general
staff will b presented to congress
later in a separate bill which will be
accompanied by a presidential MES
sage. Here is what the general stan
wants:
Five new regiments year for six
years.
The doing away with the various
small departments" and the concen-
tration OF the army into four zones
of defense
The training OF the national guard
in these four zones together with the
regular army so that higher degree
of discipline can be brought about In
case 1t is necessary to mobilize a
large army quickly at any one point
on our frontiers.
The elimination OF the seventy-six
garrisons caustically termed hitch
ing posts" by the general stan.
A special service corps under the
command of a regimental quartermas-
ter officer. 10 care for the large posts,
so as to permit the regular soldiers
always to be with the colors and re-
ceive rigid training.
The new plan is to be completed
within six years, according to the
present intention of the general stan,
when the Panama canal shall have
been completed, and It will be neces-
sary to provide for its defense.
A special board. headed by Major
General Leonard Wood. and Gen. An
thony Murphy Of the coast defense
corps. will leave for Panama next
week and will be Incorporated in the
general army reorganization plan. II
is estimated that aside from the two
ends OF the canal. there are only 21
miles of frontier on each side OF the
zone, that call for protection and that
the two regiments can properly handle
the Notifications planned.

KEY WEST. Fla. Feb. 5.-A wire
less fash sent broadcast saved thu
lives of Capt. Moore and his crew Of
46 men, OF the steamer Kentucky,
which Is now at the bottom Of the ssa
off Cape Hatteras. The signal IS. o,
S." the new international alarm OF
distress, was recorded in all wireless
stations from Capt May to Jackson
vile and then followed a mad race
by steamers to reach the Kentucky be-
fore she sank.
The Alamo, of the Mallory line,
which was 200 miles east by north OF
Savannah, was the nearest TO the Ken
lucky and she dashed at top speed TO
her rescue. Nothing was heard for
five and a half hours after the Ken
lucky flashed the signal OF distress.
Then another message was sent
through the chartered void announc-
ing that the Alamo had taken of Capt!
Moore and his crew OF 46 men. The
Alamo headed for Key West after the
Kentucky had gone to the bottom.
Late yesterday afternoon every
wireless station on the Atlantic sea.
board was trying 10 get in touch with
some of the ships that were running at
top speed to a point off the Carolina
coast, where the Kentucky, recently
rebuilt in New York for the Alaskan
North Pacific trade, was rapidly sink
Ing.
At noon the dreaded IS. o. S." the
emergency signal OF the United Wire

the cir. II was picked up by the opera
tor on the Mallory liner Alamo. en-
route down the coast, and then about
200 miles from the Kentucky. w. q.
MacGinnis, the wireless operator on
the Kentucky, repo; ted that the ship
had sprung a leak and that the water
was making fast IN her hold despite
herculean efforts OF the crew and the
ships pumps to keep 1t clear.
I'VE need help Immediately; we
are sinking; hurry" was the last word
heard from MacGinnis, and the reply
that the Alamo was coming as quick
as forced draught would force her
went unanswered.
The cry for help was repeated by
the Alamo to the shore stations and
soon every vessel I'm the vicinity OF the
Carolina coast was hurrying to the
scene. The government flashed sig
nails to revenue cutters and the bat
tleehip Louisiana, engaged in a speed
trial OF Hatteras to make for the
scene and soon vessels were converg-
ing on the doomed steamer from every
point OF the compass.
The Kentucky was an old Joy liner
plying the Sound and although she was
recently rebuilt at cost of $4,000,
she was far from being OF character
TO make the long trip to the North Pa
cific in safety. F. p. Laskett, OF Seat
tie. chief engineer OF the Alaska-Pa-
cifc Steamship q Transportation Co,
was in charge OF the vessel, while
her navigator was Capt Moore. She
cleared from Hoboken on Jan. % and
six hours after she showed her nose
past the Hook word came that she
was leaking and wallowing badly in
the trough OF the sea. She headed
for Newport News, but before she
reached that point she was terribly
battered by the waves and almost
turned turtle. When she put into the
Virginia port several OF her crew left
her. declaring she was in no shape to
try to go around the Horn.
