to war strength.
Equipment was gathered as quickly
ms possible. General Stotesbury ex-
planned, but except for meat tins and
blankets it could not be issued TO the
men until they had been mustered into
the Federal service. When General
Wood was told that New York had
used its supplies in Quitting those
already in Federal service he recon-
mended at once that the mastering
officer be empowered to adjust such ad-
vanccs by the state.
"The volume of correspondence at
the War Department evidently delayed
action on this request" said the adju-
tsnt general, "and il was not until
three days ago that the mastering
officer in charge Of the property at
Camp Whitman received his final au-
thority 10 replace the 1000 sets OF

Martin came 70 the field hospital
without medical history, which has
made treatment moredifficult. He lies
under a mosquito bar, surrounded by
piles of paraphernalla which the sur
geons have brought into play, his life
hanging by slender thread that an
attempt to move him to the more ade-
quately equipped base hospital would
almost certainly be fatal.
The sides of the tent in which Mar
tin is lying have been raised, that each
vagrant breeze may lend its aid, and
the earth of the floor is kept damp TO
relieve thes tuffy heat under the can

UNCLE SANS FORECASTS.
The Maritime Exchange at Philadel

To n EDITOR OF n SuN-Sir: In
THE sun OF May Fl Stuart :. Scott Of

tions n storm signals displayed from
the reporting station OF the Philadelphia
Maritime Exchange at Delaware Break

he arrived at the Delaware Breakwater
about shutdown and that the storm flag
vas flying Mt the signal station. that the
wind was fresh from the southwest with
every indication Of a blow and that dur
ing the night tho wind hauled to the
northwest n blew half a gale.
After investigating the report ! fnd
the facts to be as follows:
No storm flag was displayed at the
signal station on May 10 until 10 20
+. NJ. when southwest storm warnings
were ordered up from Washington.
The vino at Delaware ~Breakwater on
May 10 was from the southeast from
10 A. NJ. until s p. NJ IT hauled to
the south at 8 r. NJ. and at 10 r. NJ
IL was southwest. The greatest velocity
was forty miles. at 10 rs Il. NJ.
The direction OF the wind remained
southwest from 10 +. NJ. on May 10
until A.. NJ. on May IL and did not
haul 10 tho northwest until noon OF
May IL, and the maximum velocity
reached on that day was forty-six miles
for a short time from the southwest at
5 80 4. NJ.
This statement can he verified BY the
United States Weather Bureau. TO which
al reports are transmitted. There is
absolutely nothing amiss with the

this State, but in providing for a
commission outside of the state II
expressly provides that such COM
mission may be executed during the
recess Of the Legislature. Section 81
of the Legislative Law goes a step
further and confers upon sub-com-
mittees virtually all the powers OF
standing committees without restric-
ton or limitation.
Finally, the Code OF Civil Procedure
(section s54) definitely disposes Of the
question by explicit reference to-:
A committee Of either house Of the

thereof. or after adjournment thereof.
The constitutional powers Of the

mittee during vacation. 1t Is settled
by the Court Of Appeals that the

Improving the Navy Bill.

Before the vote was taken In com
mittee Of the whole in the House on
Representative BUTLER's amendment
increasing the number of submarines
to be authorized, the naval %appropria-
lions bill being under consideration,
Mr.. PApGErr Of Tennessee appealed
to members not TO be moved by mis-
guided enthusiasm for the submarine.
''They need" said he, "the protection
Of the heavy guns Of the fleet or
coast defence" This from the re-
sponsible chairman Of the Committee
On Naval Affairs!
If naval operations in the European
war have proved anything It Is that
submarines with n supply base are
independent Of 'the heavy guns Of the
fleet or coast defence" The effective
ness of the submarine has been lin
tied only by Its radius and the de-
vices and alertness Of the enemy.
Now MS Il the misguided enthusiasm
Of which Mr.. PADGETT complains, The
British b~attlcships Audacious (dread.
nought), Formidable, Triumph, Mn
jestic. Goliath, and the cruisers Her.
mes. Hoguc. Greasy, Aboukir and
Hawke are known to have been sunk
by submarines, besides destroyers and
torpedo boats; from the same II
the French have lost the armored
cruiser Leon Gambettn, the cruiser
Amiral Charnier, and the auxiliary
cruisers Provence and Indian; the
Italians the armored cruisers Amalf
and t;aribaldi the Russians the ar
mored cruiser Pallada. This list Is
incomplete and does not include sew
eral mysterious sinkings. Misguided
enthusiasm, indeed! Even Q prairie
member Of Congress can Judge Of the
