In answer 20 a house resolution by

inquiry has developed interesting In
formation regarding the plans OF the
military strategists for the future dis
position OF the army and its improve
ment
The principal object is TO dispose
OF the present small army with dis
tinct reference To it's mission In case
of war. This first involves adequate
forces for foreign garrisons, which
cannot be reinformed from the Uni
ted States after the outbreak OF hos
| tilities. With the remainder OF the
army mobile force is to be organ
lied and distributed among about
eight great strategical points in the
United States instead Of scattered In
| 10 posts. as now.
Two or three OF these groups would
be on line between the st. Law
renee and Atlanta. covering the At
lantic seaDoard: two or three groups
would be on the line between Puget
sound and Los Angeles, covering the
Pacific seaboard; at least two groups
between the great lakes and the Rio
Grande, serving as first reserves for
either seaboard and for the develop
ment OF the national guard and vol
unteer forces to be organized in the
interior.
BY the concentration OF the army
In eight posts, IL is declared, the an
nual cost of maintenance of the army

| The following posts are declared
| to be so located as to permit OF their
being retained as strategic concen-
! tration points: Fort Porter, Buffalo,
n. Y. (Albany is suggested as an al
tentative position; Fort Oglethorpe,
! Ga. ESPECIALLY desirable for a
cavalry brigade); Fort Mcpherson,
Atlanta, Ga. (of great strategic value

group.

Thompson. At the time the city pur-
chased the property at the foot or

that the park could be connected with
Fort Wayne by dock or an overhead

Col. Booth, in command OF the

The first appropriation of $4,000
for the establishment OF Fort Wayne
was made by congress in 1841. With
this money sc acres of land were pur-
chased and preliminary work started,
but the fort was not completed until
1851 because OF difficulties In securing
further appropriations. This site was
chosen because OF it's strategic loca-
ton at the narrowest point in the De-
troit river The fort was not regularly
occupied until 1861, the first year OF
the civil war. The reservation was
used as a parade ground by the First
Michigan infantry, which responded
TO President Lincoln's first call for vol
unteers. The Third u. S. cavalry was
the first body OF government troops to
be stationed here, and 1t has been &C.
cupied by regular army regiments
since then.
Before the establishment OF the
fort. the property had been used as a
camp and parade grounds on numer-
Gus occasions. During the Black
Hawk war, for instance, il was mill
tary camp.
For several years the reservation
has been open to the public, and there
has been standing invitation TO the
public to attend the band concerts and
drills.
