With Less Than $4,000

Washington. December 11.-Secretary
mittee on military affairs today that
the total authorized strength of tina
army was $4,000 against a total pop
ulation of 100, 100000 people under the
American flag, and that he could not
see how the government could get
along with less than that number of
soldiers in times of peace. He was ex-
planning the estimates for army appro-
priations for the coming fiscal year.
Asked why there was a necessity for
large force on the Isthmus of Pan
anna, the secretary said that il any
foreign nation should land a force in
the vicinity of the canal 1t could de-
stroy with explosives $375,00 10000 of

adays nations are not giving notice of
beginning of operations against an
other nation and cited the instance of
Japan. which, he said, gave no notice
to Russia, but sent a landing force
without notification of its purpose.
Mr.. Garrison said his large estimates
for guns and ammunition were iusti-
fled inasmueh as those things could not
be manufactured overnight. He denied
there was any enticing of men into
the army and asserted there were
thousands upon thousands of patriotic
men who would gladly come in the
army for a short time for the sake of
the disciplinary training but for tho
long enlistment term.

No Foreigners Injured

Vera Cruz, December 1.-THE American
consul at Tampico, Clarence A. Miller,
reports by wireless that no Americans or
other foreigners were injured in the first
days lighting there between federals and

department to charter vessel.

ion prevailed that an attack on Mon
terey was to be expected soon, but
that 1t might be postponed until other
cities had been attacked. Many persons
of various nationalities, who are with
out consular representation at Tampico,
have applied to the American consul
for protection, which he has accorded.

Senator Burton of Ohio occupied the
greater part of today's session with an
argument favoring a great central bank
as against the regional bank plan.
While no formal attempt was made to
secure an agreement fixing a date for a
final vote on the bill. the matter was the
subject of considerable discussion among
senators today. 1t took definite form in
a proposal advanced by Republicans to
vote next Wednesday or Thursday il
night sessions could be discontinued. No
action is contemplated however, until
Saturday.
At tonight's session Senator Owen
made a vigorous reply to Senator
Hitchcock and endeavored in violation
to force a vote on the first Hitch
cock amendment. He declared that
"the obvious intention of the. senator
from Nebraska Is to show that the
President of the United States has ex-
ercised tyrannical power over the Sen

calls a secret caucus. There was moth
