UNGUARDED COASTS.

General Miles Again Sounds the Alarm in His Report.

-HISTORY'S LESSON UNHEEDED.

•JW»co on fh? Vr"jt a fl "V v. V.- -. i!»« £Mt Are the Only Points in Our Entire Coaut Line That Could Offer Resistance -to a Foreign Fleet—Wartt Give No Warning and Our Turn Will Come.

Washington, Nov. 12.—The annual report of General Miles, commanding tbe army, has been made public. The personnel is shown to be in excellent condition, well instructed, efficient and attentive to duty. Liberal appropriations are required for public buildings at the posts, mnny of which arc out of repair. General Miles believes that the peaceable conditions now existing among the various Indian tribes is largely attributable to the presence of troops at suitable points, and to the admirable conduct of the experienced army officers who have --laced in charge of the principal a}

im. ns.

While it is

eoonomical and dtsirable to have the reaerve forces of the army near the great centers of communication, General Miles ureently contends that these points should be selected solely for their atratejric value and that the tendency towards concentration should not be carried to the point o" depriving tire western settlements of proper protection.

Under the head of coast defense, General Miles states the condition of theso defenses is such as require decided and immediate action for their improvement. The unirui'rded condition of our •coast is known by every first elas. power, and our people should not be led into false security. He quotes from his report of 1884. a strong argument for the defense of Puriet sound, shows that since thai rime new Canadian railroad connections have been established there, yet

Not a Single Clan

has been placed in position for defense, •while those at the entrance of the Columbia are obsolete and of little value. It is time tin some progress has been made toward defending San Francisco and a few modern guns and rifles have been placed. These, however, are but a small part of the general plan for the defense of the harbor, while San Diego is in the same condition as Puget sound, entirely at the mercy of any foreign fleet.

General Miles recalls what he said hi liis report of 18.S!) upon the absolute importance of the defense of the entire pacific coast, in view ox the fact that i:. •was possible for any naval y.-ver to "blockade every important poit within 90 days while it would take many years to make a successful resistance and the country might be required to pay an indemnity of

TfilV'on T^H u\s.

While the railroads might transport a million brave men to the (oast they •would be useless without appliances to cope with the modern engines of war, and with car intelligence, pride, inventive gv- ius and enterprise, we are as far bellind i:i the modern appliances of war as China or Japan.

Such were the conditions six years ago, says General Miles, and such are the conditions today with the exception of the slirrlit progress made at San Francisco. The entire gulf coast and all the fjreat cities of the Atlantic coast northward to Philadelphia, are

Kntirel.v Without Modern Guns. In position are a few obsolete guns and none of these batteries could stop a single iivst class warslrp much less a. fleet. Seine progress has been made at New York, but like San Francisco, only a small part of the project has been accomplished. With one exception the cities north of l\'ew York are in a similar rendition to those south of it. Some guns and mortors have been constructed and some shipped to their destination, carriages for them are under construction and emplaceni' nts have been made to limned extent.

General Miles, in support of his recommendation for adequate coast defenses, points to the fact that the batteries at Moultrie and Sumter kept at bay iov foui1 years the most powerful navy of the world. He says that our people cherish two misleading delusions: first, that torpedoes can be depended upon to protect our coasts, and, second, that its 4,000 miles of coast can be defended by a navy. He shows that torpedo plants are useless without protccti butteries, and that tire water in our priur:pal liar"bors is so deep that light draft war veseels might pass over torpedo mines with- I out danger. He asserts that the recent 1 maneuvers .n England have shown that even the I

Powerful Kril isli Ts'avy

is unable to defend the British coast against a foreign fleet, therefore he I argues tuat the main reliance must be upon coast batteries.

While he does not anticipate, war in 1 the near 1ufure, he shows that in the I last 200 yeais in less than 10 per cent of I tlio war.s ha:-, there been any formal

warning or declaiv.h'on before hostilities, and as it would require years of time to construct modern weapons of war, it would be unwise to disregard the lessons of history. In our own country for nearly 200 years there has liever been a- period of 8-j years in "which it has not been involved in war. He

Points to tlie Case of China,

which made the fatal mistake of relying npon its vastly superior numbers for safety, and argues that the best guarantee of peace is a condition of readiness for war.

Therefore he strongly recommends the construction of all the high power girns and system of defenses called for in the general plan of the board of ordnance, and fortification and other boards and to meet in part the expense of this oostly undertaking he suggests the application of the funds that might be dejived from the sale of abandoned military reservations. To man these guns be asks an increase of the artillery arm jirith the provision of barracks at Fort Hancock, New York, for the accommodation of these troops, and the systematic detail of subaltern officers for injpfcraction in rotation at this place.

Touching the infantry, General Miles recommends the three battalion organization and regimental posts to keep the jponpiinies of a regiment together. -v

thinks that at least one full iegiment of oavalry should be assembled at Fort Riley, Kan., where field maneuvers might be undertaken annually. To thoroughly demonstrate the utility of bicycles and motor wagons in the army it is riconiiiif.nticd that a force of 12 ccrv,.".^:: .Upped with these devices to ue from the 4,000 officers and nrr? in the army able to use a bicyelewiJ Lorn already

V«nii Extremely TTscfsil.

General iviiies argues for an increase the strength of the army, saying that there is uo reason why it should te crystalized and kept at one strength as it has for years. It should increase with the growth" of the country and be determined by the census at a minimum of one soldier for every 2,000 population and a maximum of one in 1,000.

General Miles concludes his report with several recommendations intended to benefit thp condition of the officers and me:i and attract to the military servi'-e the best element in the community. One suggestion is that where a soldier lias served honorably for five years and wishes to leave the service, nc may, after passing an examination, be commissioned as second lieutenant and discharged. Such a man would benefit any community, be useful in the naiitnal guard aLd constitute a valuable rf serve in time of war. The pay of noncommissioned officers should be increased, officers should be given a rotation in outy to fit them for general commands, and those below the grade of colour- ho serve iJO years and rendered vai able service during the Avar, should be permitted to "tire with rank one grade higher than they now hold.

Counsel for the defense, in summing up, said that the plaintiffs were a "pack of scoundrels." He added that Montague Eder and the first Mrs. Herring were living in adultery, while Dr. K^rring was in America, and intimated that the latter and his second wife held intimate relations before their marriage. Continning, counsel said that Dr. Herring

was a liar and that he would prove him such. At this juncture Mrs. Herring fainted and was carried out of court. Counsel for the defendants, resuming liis summing up, said that Dr. Herring had kidnaped Letitiu Thompson, which fact could be proved.

CENTURY OF GROWTH

MARVELOUS DIANA IN

DEVELOPMENT Of INA HUNDRED YEARS.

Dlsenaalon of Plans For Celebrating the Centennial In 19U0—Some Remarkable Facts About the State Cited by Colonel

Kit Lilly, President of the Centennial Cotnmin«l»n—H(« to Scope of the Great Celebration—Commlmtioner Dougherty's Ideas.

The closing year of the century will round out the first hundred years of the existence of Indiana, the civil government of the territory having been inaugurated on July 4, 1800, at Vincennes. The importance of properly celebrating this epoch in the history and growth of the state was recognized at the last session of the legislature by the authorization of the appointment by the governor of a commission composed of two representatives of each congressional district and four from the state at large for the purpose of considering and recommending plans for a fitting centennial celebration. This commission is composed of leading men of the state. It is known as the Indiana Centennial Commission. The president is Colonel Eli Lilly, of Indianapolis, the first to suggest the movement. The proposed celebration is being discussed throughout the state with much interest, and the commission will soon take up the task of outlining plans for the consideration of the next legislature, with which will rest the determination of what shall be done.

INTERVIEW WITH COLONEL LILLY.

In an interview regarding the great project Colonel Lilly, the president of the commission, said to a press repre--sentative: "Every consideration of state pride and individual duty should move the people of Indiana to grandly celebrate the centennial anniversary of the establishment of civil government of the territorv at Vincennes July 4, 1800. On that day, the 24th anniversary of our national independence and in the very year the congress of the United States first met in the capitol at Washington, the name Indiana was first given to that region which has now become the heart ot' the union, the very ceuter of population, wealth and intelligence. "Indiana is therefore the only state historically representing the boundaries of the li)th century. "The general assembly, recognizing their patriotic duty, wisely and in time provided lor a commission to consider and report a plan for the proper observance of the great event.

GROWTH OF A HUNDRED YEARS. "The general assembly had in mind the wilderness of the year 1800, with a population of scarce five thousand frontiersmen, now grown to be a great state of two and a half millions of souls, with a real value in farms of niue hundred millions of dollars, producing an annual value of one hundred and twenty-iive uaiiions 01' dollars a state with a manufacturing population of one hundred and hity tnousand, earning annually sixty-five millions of dollars, with an output to the value of three hundred millions of dollars, and a mineral output of over fifteen millions of dollars a state with the greatest organization for the education of the masses in the world a state that gave the services of over two hundred thousand men and

twent3*-five

and the usual methods of raising funds for such purposes. To this the general government, should be asked to add an exhibit at its own expense. "But we must not stop here. In every county in the state a competent person should be selected by the Historical Soci» ty of Indiana to write the county history from its organization, and by all means the history of every and battery in the United States vi be it an 1 These histories should in l'.iOO be placed I

in the permanent exhibit.

A GENERAL BRIGHTENING UP.

1 'But if the tangible results of this great event are not manifest in every community the greatest benefit will be lost.

Every city, town and village should clean up and beautify the public places and all citizens shouid adorn tlieir premises by planting trees, flowers and grass, painting or whitewashing fences and buildings railroads should lead off and become an inspiration to the people in this work until as morning breaks

011

the 20th century the Indiana of a hundred years would show the brightest, cleanest, happiest land on earth. The travel of a continent crosses IudiI ana. Let the eye of the traveler rest I upon things beautiful and he will carry I our fame wherever he goes. "So the centennial must not be alone

for the great capital which in 1900 will have a population of 200,000, with its hundreds of miles of beautifully paved and shaded streets, with its boulevards and parks and magnificent buildings and monuments which all may enjoy, but for every city and town, village, hamlet and home within our borders."

INDIANA TIIE PULSE OF THE UNION.

Hon. Hugh Dougherty of Bluffton, Ind., a member of the executive committee of the commission, in an interview with reference to the importance and desirability of such a celebration, says: "Indiana is the pulse state of the Union. Through her the great throbbing veins of commerce, which nourish every part of our national body, flow. Her geographical location and physical features are such that the east and the 'west traversb her territory in passing to and fro. Her capital is the largest in

thousand lives that

the Union might live, and that has erected the noblest monument on earth to the citizen soldier. "These things re in the minds of the members of the legislature audit now remains for the people of Indiana to recognize their opportunity, the greatest ever presented to a state, to demonstrate Hie aciuevonj'-nts

land raUroad center in $$»e world. The center of oar country's population is within her borders. Her position among her sister states is nniqoe, and her marvelous progress since organization as a territory calls for a centennial jubilee of such a character as will best enable her sons and daughters to appreciate the heritage of a hundred years. "There is no way in which we coufcmore effectively kindle that wholesome state pride which must underlie the noblo action of her present and future citizenship than by a parade of her achievement and a fresh revelation of her early struggles. The latter are now matters of recorded history to most of us, and a retrospective view of the heroic struggles'of our fathers would be an eloquent lesson in patriotism. In their toils, their sufferings, their hardships, their conflicts, momentous questions

were at stake and issues vital to the future world. In appearance they were insignificant at times, but in reality, copious and full of benevolent consequences. Acting at the springs of our 1 future greatness, instruments otherwise weak became mighty for good, and our 1 pioneer fathers, obscure to the world, proved to be agents of destiny. They I who entered an untamed wilderness with vast wastes ot forest verdure to make a garden for their children, and the hills then silent in their primeval sleep now echo the music of happy I homes of industry. These hardy sous of toil, whose school was the forest, whose trade was barter with savages, whose social life was that of the campI fire, whose daily lesson was self-sacrifice. conquered the territory of Indiana for 1 civilization. Such memories as these ought to kindle a burning enthusiasm in every loyal Hoosier breast to join in the proposed observance ot our anniversary. "THE HERITAGE OF A HUNDRED YEARS." "Such an observance would be of more than local consequence. It would be a formal way in which our state could give evidence to the world of her worthiness of a place in the family of states comprising our great republic. Our exhibit would say: 'This is our achievement and of this we need not be ashamed. With an agricultural productivity unsurpassed, monumental manufacturing industries, natural resources inexhaustible, among which are lumber, stone, coal, natural gas and petroleum, a school system which is an object lesson to the world, an intelligent, industrious, patriotic, Christian citizenship, populous cities with every modern improvement—in fine all that constitutes the highest degree of prosperity and civilization to be found on the globe— the people of this great state may be exexact ceeding glad to make a representative exhibit of the fruit of their labors and say to the world: 'Behold the heritage of a hundred years.' "Then let us celebrate the event which has led to such marvelous consequences —an event contemporaneous with the beginning of a century which has seen greater commercial development, more extensive manufacturing enterprise, more valuable invention and discovery, more fruitful agricultural activity, more widespread intelligence, more altruistic feeling, and more application of the agencies that make possible complete living than all the cer.furies that pre ceded and
