Il Is to be left to each woman volun-

a salary or not, and whether she has
any objection to transferment from
one place to another, while she Is en-
tirely free in her choice of the nature
Of the work. As, however, there Ia
likely to be superabundance OF offers
for certain kinds of labor, the yoIun.

less than that earned by the man re-
placed; on the other hand. the woman
SO employed may in no case claim the
place when the emergency Is past.

Of Ministers and the Commander-In.
Chief Of Land and Sea Forces, and the
Post Office, railway and other authori.

in fixing the amount and kinds Of la
Dor that would be needed in the event

THE MARINA'S GUN.
4 Contention That Such n Weapon
Impairs the Submarines Usefulness.

To THE EDITOR or THE SUN-Sir: !
submit that the question of the Marina
.rcyolves about her A. inch gun The
mounting OF such a gun necessarily
transforms a n~on-comhatant into a bel
and ! believe that the Admin
.stration is entirely wrong in its attitude
as to the arming of merchant vessels.
For the United States to contend that
a German submarine with its egsshell
Mating should rise to the surface and
deliberately warn \ vessel with 4 ~
inch gun is too outrageously unfair for
serious consideration. The submarine is
a recognized implement of warfare, and
it's usefulness should not he impaired
by the irrelevant fac, that not many
Years ago merchant vessels were allowed
tn arm themselves against the pirates
of the china seas.
Let us bo fair and admit hat an

cargo and a Marina mounting a fine A.
inch gun are vitality different vessels,
Let us reverse our previous finding and
come out nat footed with the truth that

A Promise Of Some New ThrilieFs.

FREDERIC SMITH Is the name ~ a
Yankee who has arrived In this port
after having. as he says. been shang-
haied aboard the British freighter
Midland, which was sunk In the Bay
nf Blscay on October ~ by II German
submarine. Mr.. SMITH says that he
was not shanghaied in the regular
way. which consists in slipping II
tins liquor, Tho innocent ashore
knows nothing further until the mate
enters tine fo'c's'lp and turns him out
m the toc Of his boot at eight bells Of
the morning watch next day.
Concerning the details of the co.
ercion put upon this Yankee seafarer
we read only that he suffered no rough
treatment. His shanghaiing vas he
says, purely scientific" There is a
story Of MORGAN RO%BERTsoN's IN
which the hero was shanghaied nj
San Francisco by N vcrSd in the
arts Of .jiu-jitsu. A hard blow inflict-
pd on the pneumogastric nerve made
the subject suitably unconscious OF
everything terrestrial. When he re-,
gained consciousness he was for some
time unable to spenk. This novelty
made interesting reading. Since tn,
publication of that tale there has beer
hardly any variation in the styles oi
shnnghaiing sailors. The hero l. treat
ed in this fashion less frequently Thar
he used 10 DO, probably because Of III,
operation of the new seamen's law
which makes it n highly punishable
offence to treat the man before tn,
mast unkindly.
II il will not he sclf.incriminntor!
Mr.. SMITH has n duty to perform
toward the fiction writer's: he mus
acQuaint them with the method Of hi
taking on. The royalties they cnl
pay him will amount to more than a
able seaman can earn In II doze
present day passages.
