A NATIONAL WARNING.
Tho Army and Navy Should B
Strengthened for Emergency.
New York SUM

Representative A. P. Gardner of
Massachusetts,, who served on the staff
Of General James H. Wilson in the
Spanish war, again sounds the warn
ing which has so often fallen on deaf
ears, that the country is not only un-
prepared for war that may come at
short notice but is actually deficient
In equipment for both the army and
navy. upon which it relies for de-
Tense. Mr.. Gardner Is not an alarmist,
and he Is not a lingo. He has forth
fed himself with the unanswerable
facts.
The navy could not be modified to-
day with fighting complement. 1t is
thousands Of sailors short. Moreover,
three years are required to make a
man Of war'sman. 1t has torpedo
tubes but far from enough torpedoes
for active service. OF battle cruisers
it has none, and but three fast scouts.
The submarine flotilla is few in num-
bers and contains obsolete types. 1t
would be no match for either the Ger
man or the British flotila in efficiency
and execution. The navy needs a good
many more destroyers. 1t is an old
story that the navy Is far behind Eng
land or Germany In dreadnaughts.
Turning to the land forces Repre-
sentative Gardner shows that they do
not constitute a modern army capable
Of giving battle to an army Of inva-

Situation Of the Metals
Engineering and Mining JournaD

to around &c. Then came the war and
the sudden realization that England
was going to be cut of from her main
supply Of spelter. The same thing was
realized in England. and buying of the
American spelter began from there
with the result that our market rose
by leaps and bounds to about &C.
Probably about 10000 tons was sold
for export at this time. but England
had for the moment overbought her
self, wherefore the demand from there
in which speculative interests had
played q part. suddenly ceased; and
England being able little later to Oh.
tain some spelter from Rotterdam, thu
price in this market declined in Sep.
TENDER about as rapidly as 1t had ris.
en- in August. Early in October, the
price was back at about 4.7Oc, or just
where 1t started at the beginning Of
August, and now It Is at 4.5c.
The shelters by their recent sales,
domestic and foreign, relieved them
selves considerably. but all OF them
are still carrying large unsolo stocks.
Reports from most of the western
works tell Of unsightly piles of the
metal awaiting orders for shipment.
without doubt, America is going to
experience a further demand for spell
ter for export Even now there are
signs Of interest from the other side.
But the third phase of this business
will probably be sober one Whereas
in August England cabled 1--WE want
spelter and we'll take it at whatever
price you ask" now she writes, wen
take some Of your spelter if you will
deliver it over here for a22h."
/ Copper.
The copper situation has been 80
much discussed that 1t is unnecessary
to 60 further into the details Of it now
It may be remarked only that, where
as the producers of both lead and spell
ter have paid the penalty of excessive
production, the producers of copper
were not guilty of anything of that
sort and are the innocent victims Of
an unexpected Industrial chaos. There
was nothing for them to do but to cur
tail their production. In general, the
American producers have reduced by
about so per cent. 1t is to be feared,
however, that the leaders among the
producers have been unduly optimis-
tic in thinking that curtailment Of
so per cent would be enough. Nobody
can yet tell definitely about this mar
ket, for the reason that what there is
Of 1t Is restricted by common consent
of the smelters, but the failure of de-
mand to develop indicates that we
may yet see level Of price that will
produce the necessary curtailment by
extinguishment Of production.

HAW[EY TAKES 4 FALL
OUT Of N. ALEXANDER
TELLS WHAT He
WOULD DO As GOVERNOR
HAwLEY SAYS HE CAN'T.

Moses Alexander, the democratic
candidate for governor, spoke at Burke
last Friday evening, when he INDUCED
in his usual promise to reduce the
taxes, clean out the state house ana
generally establish a system OF demo-
cratic simplicity in the conduct OF the
state government, provided the peo-
pie would elect him governor OF the
state. OF course, to one who stops 70
consider the promises put forward by
Mr.. Alexander there Is but two con-
clusions. One Is that he knows notn-
ing of the power that is vested IN the
governor and makes these promises In
ignorant honesty, and the other Is that
he makes these sweeping promises
knowing that he is powerless to car
lry them out and assuming that tie
people do not know 1t. In either case
he Is placed in most unfavorabie
light before the voters Of the state
HawIey Hits Alexander.
Mr. Alexander's campaign has been
made almost exclusively upon his
promises in the way of reducing tax
alton through abolishing commissions,
doing away with what he might con-
slider unnecessary offices and in gen
eral revision of the present methods
OF handling the business of the state.
! In his speech at Occur d'Alene a few
weeks ago Governor Hawley purpose
" or Internationally took all the wind
! out Of Mr. Alexander's campaign sails
by the following comment on the
powers of the governor and having
served In that position he is in posi-
ton to know what he Is talking about.
Governor Hawley said:
Powers Of the Governor.
| MANY imagine that the Office OF
governor confers great power upon
the incumbent. 1t does invest him
with grave responsibility. 1t gives
him great power in certain directions
but in matters affecting reform in the
administration of our state affairs, in
matters affecting taxation and the
maintenance VI LIlC SldtC 6OfClAhiSh'
and state institutions he has about as
much to do outside Of making sugges-
lions to the legislature as the men and
women within this government have
to do with the government of China
He can make suggestions If he has a
friendly legislature. But 1t Is
the legislature, and the legislature
alone, that is responsible for the APP
preparations made to our different in
stitutions and our different boards 81
control, and our different offices and
tax rate, and the amount paid by the
citizens for carrying on the affairs OIL
state is determined by these appro-
priations so made by the legislature
and not by any act of the governor
himself"

Lead.
The lead market was weakish our
ing the first half OF the year An ex-
portation of about 10000 tons OF DO
nestle lead relieved the situation
however, and prevented the slump that
there might otherwise have been. ow',
ing to the large production and the
none too good consumption. Just be-
fore the war, the export demand hav-
ing ceased, the selling agencies made
overtures to the miners. especially
those of the Occur d'Alene, to curtail
their production, but no heed was CIV
en- to this advice. After the war be-
gan there was some hope that there
might be a renewal Of the export busi-
ness, but while 1t has been possible to
sell small quantities to Europe there
has not yet matured any great de-
mand from there, which would relieve
the situation here. The situation here
has been that the refiners have been
carrying large stocks Of lead which
they have not been able to sell In spite
of offers at concessions, inspired by
the general desire to have none!
rather than lead at time WheT
money is dear and burdens are great
The miners having refused to read the
signs Of the times and the smelters
being unwilling to add to the leat
they were carrying, the market tool

Zinc.
The zinc smelters at the mid-yeal
were in a desperate plight, carrying {
stock of "a 1000 tons, a far larger guam
tity than ever known before in TIL
history of the industry in this country
while there was strong presumptiv'
evidence that the galvanizers and tn
brass makers were themselves over
bought. Here again, we were witness
ing a maintenance Of excessive pro
duction, but few Of the smelters be
ing willing to make any material cur
tailment, and the aggregate Of thei
output being about the largest on rec
ord. In July, the price for spelter hal

pessimists were foretelling declin

ness for a couple Of weeks. Just got
to be good friends with everybody, and
he seemed a first rate square sort OF
fellow. One night he got to talkinr
about his experiences in different min
Ing camps and Of the fine chances he
knew Of down in Mexico, and how his
rich uncle in Denver was going to
stake him for trip in the spring. The
upshot of 1t was that somebody pro.
posed that we get up a little syndicate
and send this experienced man down
to prospect for mines in Mexico. Al
first he acted as II he would rather
wait for his uncle's cash, but finally
consented to a scheme by which IL OF
us were to put up $50 month each
for about year or less. The pros
pector showed how he could give uy
big returns on our money, and that
maybe he'd be sending money to us
before the year was up. Said he would
have to travel around pretty much a,
first, locating the best ground, and that
1t would be a good idea to have the
first six months installments at the
start so he could get a good outfit anf
hire enough Mexicans to get quick re-
turns from the mines. We came across
with 5000 each and began to figure or
how soon we could throw up our Jobs
and live on easy street. But don't
you know, that fellow never sent for
the rest Of the money and we can not
imagine where he Is"
That night the E. M. figured 1t out
