It will be nee " Vssury to start n steamer from Sun 1'ranciseo early in November in order to reach the Philippines by Christmas, nnd friends of the soldier bovs out beyond the Pacific, who wish to for- vurd boxes of good things are already In Correspondence with Quartermas ter Oen. l.mltngton on the subject. . The rigid rule has been laid down that Christmas boxes for the soldiers . at Manila must not contain quantities '. of sweet things calculated to dls . turb the digestion of men living in -the tropics. Mincemeat, fruit cake '. And candy will be permitted only in , small parcels, and it is advisable that - the packages be limited in weight, as ; -the department will not be able to iorward over 1,000 tons at the ut most. The packages will have to be delivered at San Francisco without J expense to the government, which has no fund for transporting such sup plies, and it is essential that the quar termaster general shall give permis sion iu each case for the package to jjo aboard a government transport. f EFFECT OF THE WAR. Eaa-llah Stateaaaaa Talaka a ' Laraja , Armed Force Will Hereafter Be i Xeeesaarr la tailed States. J ' Rt. Hon. Leonard Henry Courtenay, .: former deputy speaker of the house of - "Commons and now unionist member - of parliament for the Bodmin division - cf Cornwall, speaking at Tideford, Cornwall, said that one of the conae ajuenees of the war with Spain upon . tne American people had been to ., -create spirit which must in the near , future lead to' a great transformation ox American character and policy. "Instead of being a self-contained, industrious, peaceful, and non-aggres sive, people," said- Mr. Courtenav. "the Americans, if they take sovereignty in Cuba, will have to keep a large naval ;and military force in order to make -the Influence of the United States felt Although the American members -of theVpeace commission have declared -that the United States does not want Cuba or the Philippines, the history ci our own country has shown that " when once there is an occupation the intention to leave after disorder has been righted has seldom been put mio execution. "The war emphasizes the necessity of the peace proposals of the czar. If there had been an organized tribunal -to settle international quarrels the Hispano-American conflict might have - been averted even after passion had been aroused by the Maine disaster." JfORTIFICATIoifs-?-HAVANA. Deaerlptloa of Gaaa, Aaaaihloa, Sankrn Masked Batterlea, Bte., Sent to War Department. The war department has received a detailed description of the fortifiea- tionsof Havana. Besides old guns there re 43 new guns. These guns are principally of the Tlontoria and Or donez pattern, but there are a few Krupps among them. The strength of the Spanish gar rison in Havana is estimated at 100, 00, evenly divided between volun teers nnd regulurs. This strength could have"iieen increased at any time by calling provincial troops to Havana. , The exact number of arms in Hav ana is not known, but the armament on hand in depots, artillery parks and .lores of all divisions of the army of the island of Cuba is: Mauser Titles and carbines, 131,015; Reming ton rifles, 137,974; of private guer illas, 14,000; total, 262,989. Out of this number only 30,000 are believed to be new. Of cartridges there are 9,000,000, Great ingenuity has been displayed In tbn construction of masked bat teries. Closely underlying much of the soil in the vicinity of Havana is coral rock, easily excavated. Trenches .are cut into it, and from short dis tances nc thing is seen to indicate the existence or extent of defensive works. NAVY NEEDS MEN. lie Declared Uefore Cuasjreas Takra Aetloa. If u treaty o? peace with Spain should be signed before congress makes provisions for an increase in the enlisted strength of the navy that important brunch of the govern ment wuuld be badly crippled. With the increuse of the navy there has been & demand for more men, and at the btglnniiig of hostilities congress authorized Secretary Long to enlist enough men to man the vessels, hut their services must be dispensed with when peace is declared. April I, when preparations for war were be ing niude, the men and apprentice numbered 13,06, and under the au thority allowed iu the conduct of the war this was increased until the maxi mum strength was reached August IS. when l.iss enliiMed meii were iu the service. This number has been grad ually decreased by discharge of the naval reserves until there remained oil Oitober 14 only 20.270 men. Of these 7S0 are on receiving ships and 400 of them are short term men, and not available tor foreign service. Secretary Long asserts that if fur ther reductions ure made the navy will be crippled, the departments will be unable to reestablish European nnd other foreign stations, and will be compelled to put some of the vessels out of commission. Secretary Long will ask congress for an increase of at least 7,500 men. which will bring the enlisted strength of the navy up to 20,000. Kvery dnv bundreds of applications for discharge are made by men who enlisted for the war and whose positions in civil life are in jeopardy because they do not resume their duties. The " depart ment is unable to grant these requests and this may cause many of the men who fought for their country to lose their positions In civil life. SEA-SIGNALING DEVICE. But top u Mm Ci lovko f'A IS, 4jla JkMjfM3 Sciatic nerve Wood Turning Done to Order. Improved Apparataa Glvea a Tkor-aaa-k aad Saeceaafal Teat at Hebokea, K. J. An interesting test was made at the Hoboken (N J.) pier of the North Ger man Lloyd Steamship company of the lucigraph, an invention of John W. Ilayward for signaling at sea. The lu cigraph is a combination of typewriter and stereopticon. Instead of u screen a rapidly revolving "pin-wheel" i? used, on which are thrown the signal letters that are brought before a strong light on slides worked by u keyboard. A pure white light thrown upon 'the disk is intended by the in ventor as a signal of attention. When answered by another vessel, the let ters representing the international rode messages are thrown upon the disk. These letters may vary from n minimum of 15 feet to any s'ize, and may be seen by the naked eye at a great distance. The test proved suc cessful. Letters of light 18 feet in length were thrown upon a revolv ing screen, and could be teen with ease from the Jiew York side. WILL CAUSE A BOOM.

' IS"' French, It is expected that the decision ot the secretary of the navy to retain all the vessels purchased during the war win nave the effect of causing a boom in American shipbuilding. It comes just at a time when there isan unusual demand for ships flying the American nag on account of the expanding com merce of the United States in general and particularly on account of the de cision of the udminstralionloconriue trade between American ports and Puerto Kico to American vessels. The navy, in preparing for war, drew very largely upon the tonnage of the coastwise and foreign lines sailing un der the American flag and the business of these lines cannot be restored to its former proportions until vessels have been built to supply the places of thost taken by the government. To restore to these lines the number of vessels they had before the war will require the construction of 17 vessels. MONTH IN DRY DOCK.
