POST HERE
CERTAIN
Garrison's Plan to Centralize Reg
uIars Will Result in Enlarge
ment Of Fort Mcpherson.

That Secretary of War Garrison's
plan to abandon 100 or more "abso-
lutely useless" posts in a move 10
centralize the army will mean an
enlargement Of Fort Mcpherson, max
ing it one Of the largest in the coun-
try. is the consensus of opinion of
army men here. including Colonel
vanOrsdale, of the Seventeenth In
fantry.
vanOrsdale, of the Seventh Regiment.
Nor is this opinion a haphazard
guess. The officers base their knowl-
edge OF the matter largely on re-
marks made by Major General Leon
ard Wood. chief of staff. on his last
visit to Atlanta.
If the plan of centralizing the
army, which has been under consil-
Grafton for several years, is put into
effect" said General Wood on this
occasion, Fort Mcpherson will be-
come one of the largest posts in the
country"
Wood to Advise Secretary.
AS General Wood will be one of the
chief advisers of Secretary Garrison,
accompanying him on his tour of the
posts, there is little doubt, It is point
ed out, that the Georgia post will re-
ceive favorable consideration. r,
Garrison, General Wood and Quar-
termaster General Aleshire, who will
make the inspection of the army
posts, will begin their tour next week.
Atlanta is too strategic a point for
the War Department even to con-
slider its abandonment. according to
Colonel VanOrsdale.
81 hardly think it is possible that
Fort Mcpherson is being included IN
plans for army-post abandonment
said he. IF such a movement is on
foot, / would be inclined to believe
that it has to do with posts in the
West and on the frontier, which are
lutte a distance from the railroad and
which hold but a handful of troops in
many cases.
Atlanta a Strategic Point.
THE location of Fort Mcpherson
puts us within twelve hours of the
Atlantic and twelve hours of the Gulf
coasts, the great number of railroads
entering Atlanta making it a central
point There are other big advan-
tages also which make the abandon
ment of this post out of the question:
it seems to me.
IF troops are to be concentrated,
Congress must first appropriate
money with which to build quarters
at the larger posts sufficient to dc-
commodate a much larger number Of
men. For instance, there has been
talk of making Fort Mcpherson d
brigade post, but before this can be
accomplished it will be necessary 10
put up additional buildi-gs. ] believe
a sufficient appropriation for this will
be granted if Secretary Garrison de-
cides to continue the post"
When questioned as to the probable
abandonment of Fort Oglethorpe, at
Chickamauga Park, Colonel VanOrs-
dale said he did not believe the War
Department would consider its elimi
nation, as it is a splendid strategic

WANTS DRY INAUGURATION.
Senator Gallinger Has Bill in Senate to
That Effect

Washington.--A dry inauguration
would mark Presdent-elect Wilson's I'M
duction into office if petition presented
in the senate by Senator Gallinger on
behalf Of the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Association is fayorably acted
upon by congress. The petition urged
the closing OF all saloons in the national
capital on March 4.
Further action by congress will be
necessary If President-elcct Wilson do
sires to have a public reception in the
capitol or any other government build
ing as a substitute for the inaugural
ball, to which he is opposed, in the
opinion expressed BY members Of the
joint congressional committee on inaug-
iTation.
They contend that they have not the
power at the present time to make ar
rangements for the proposed reception.
The committee will be guided in its final
decision in the matter by Mr.. Wilson's
wishes.

TAKE UP APPOINTMENTS.
Republican Senator's Will Hold Caucus

Washington Republican senators are
considering holding caucus to take the
condition Of business and appointments
in the senate. No Republican caucus
has been held thus far this session be-
cause of the differences Of opinion within
the party ranks.
Successive executive sessions CT the
senate have failed to bring action on
more than three or four Of President
Taft's 1900 appointments. Republican
leaders have become convinced that they
must either get action upon them or
draw the lines so closely as to fix re-
sponsibility on the Democrats for the
delay.
The legislative condition u the senate
also is becoming serious enough fer eau
Gus action, it is claimed. Democratic
senators win hold caucus to consider
the situation as it presents itself to
them.

United States Would Lose Battle in
Philippines.
Washington. WORKOUT cavalry horses
and inefficient Filipino teamsters would
prove menace to Americas success in
the event of campaign in China or
The Philippines, in the opinion OF Brig
Gen. Frederick Funston, commanding the
department Of Luzon Of the Philippine
division Of the army.
Discussing these questions in his an
nual report, Gen. Funston says: "rhe
recent substitution of many Of the
American Transfers by Filipinos, on the
score Of economy, Is, from the stand
point OF efficiency, most regrettable.'
He points out that even where Filipino
drivers have the courage, they lack SELF
confidence, strength and skill, so thas
they will plunge down bank and into
a stream with fatalism Characteristic
of their race, trusting more in their
mules to get thorugh somehow than in
their own efforts to control them.
