close upon the alarming statement
made yesterday by Maj. Gen. william
II. Carter before the house committee
on military affairs that $4,000 effici-
emit japanese soldiers are now in Ha-
wall ready to wrest that invaluable pos
session from the United States. The
war department today admitted that
definite plans are now complete to
equip and rush an entire division or
troops. recruited to war strength, to
those islands for permanent service.
1t was decided to send five regi-
ments of infantry, each of the IL COM
panies recruited to Use men; one regi-
ment of cavalry, every troop at full
strength; one full regiment Of field ar
tillery; eight companies OF coast artil-
lery, to be separated from the immobile
army, one company OF engineers and
one company Of the signal corps. All

~ sanitary force and under the COM
mand of a major general.
1t was further learned today that not
content with sending q full division or
soldiers to Hawaii, the government has
sent the Pacific squadron of armored
cruisers as we'll These four big ships
are at the present moment carefully
engaged in making a minute survey Of
the coast from a naval point Of view, IL
being their purpose to ascertain precise
ly where an army could land.
So anxious IS the war department to
prevent its panic from becoming known
that today Secretary OF War Sumson
contradiCted the statement made by
General Carter as to the number or
Japanese soldiers in Hawaii. He did
not, however. deny that the full d.
vision OF troops numbering more than
$4,000 fighting men. the biggest army
every hurried by the United States to
distant territory. except in time of &C
tual war is going tc these islands. The
entire infantry force alone will number
5000.
General Carter expressed regret to-
day that his statement had become pub
lie. 1t was made in confidence before
the military committee, he said. Even
a stenographer was barred from the
room while he was giving his testimo-
ny. AS to General Carriers opportunity
to obtain exact knowledge. 1T is point
ed out that up to IS months ago he
was stationed in the Philippines. On
his way home he paid visit TO Ha-
- ---l-
illustrating the eagerness with which
the war department is making ready
for this emergency. 1t is pointed out
that within the past few days Gen.
Leonard Wood has directed that COM
plete list showing the continuous term
Of service in WashI Igton Of all off
GERS now here should be prepared ami
sent to him. gs-.r
1t IS said that every officer who has

NEW YORK, Feb. 2O--Dayid Murphy.

lower end Of Manhattan with Frank

Murphy used his camera repeatedly
while over tho hsrbor. one excellent

reservation on Governors Island. Cas-
tie William is now used as a military

lures made by Mr.. Murphy and by
Adrain c. Duff. another American
Press Association photographer, the
New York World says editorially:
The performances in photography
from the Coffyn hydroaeroplane over
New York harbor should interest every
military power and every fortress Of
Europe or the world. The photo
grapher has been wholly new to the
situation. His work has been done
while speeding at forty miles an hour
and against the vibrations and sway
ing OF the machine. No provision
had been made for steadying his posi-.
tion, and the camera had 70 be aimed
more or less hlindly. That there should
have been any results az all Is sur.
prising. That the actual result should
be photographs OF unsurpassed clear
ness and fidelity to detail is wonder
full When this is possible what will
become Of the hysterical pains taken
by the great military powers to pro-
tect their fortihcations from the spy
ing Of camera men on foot? What OF
the possibilities of Photographic air
reconnoissances of the enemy and his
forces and armament in time Of war?
II is only a suggestion of what the
aeroplane may do TO make war farcical
in its preparations and too deadly for
indulgence in its actualities."
