It is understood that a more or loss de

ARTILLERY REORGANIZATION.
Major story Bays That the Greatest
Need Is Mora Men.
Washington, Oct. 19. Accompany
ing tho report of Major-General Brooke,
commander fit the department of the
oast, to the war department, was a re
port by Major Story, Seventh artillery
inspector. Major Story statos that
the personnel of tho artillery is mani
festly inadequate to serve the arma
ment already mounted, and ho believes
thoro is such genera) recognition of this
fact that thero will be an inorouso ia
artillery forces at the coming sossion of
congress.
"It should be remarked in this con
nection," be says, ",tnat the enlisted
force required for one, jrellef to serve
the modern coast armament in this
military department ia estimated at
15,010 men. Ob the 18th of last Jane
the enlisted strength of the heavy bat
teriea in the department amounted to
only-4,088 men, and of theae quite a
number of artillery soldiers Are requir
ed by the exigencies of the service to
garrison posts which are not properly
artillery statlone.
"It may also be stated that1 with the
exception of the artillery sobool at
Fort Monroe, Va., there is not ia any
important harbor in the United States
even the minimum number of officers
and men required by the coast artillery
regulations for tho service of modem
armament fire, control and direction."
Major' Story comments upon the ax
tillery reorganisation bill.now pending
in congress, and says it is a serious de
foot of the measure that it doos not
supply sufficient oflloers for staff ad
ministration,. "The number of oflloers now absent
from tholr batteries," be says, "1
probably in excess of 40 per cent, and
thero is no prospect in the near future
of improvement in this respect. If the
bill passes in its present form this un
fortunate condition will be aggravated,
since officers must be withdraws from
tho batteries for staff admlulstratloa.
It is, therefore, earnestly recommended
that the artillery be pat npon the same
basis as infantry or cavalry in provid-,
tag otnoers for ataff work."
STRIKERS IN A RIOT.
,,' MssasV gertaaa AsTray ta"Mie Aa
mraeite nea-iea.
Hasletoa, Pa., Oet. 1SJ. A special
policeman waa killed, another waa
wounded la the bead, a striker waa
probably fatally shot and 10 nonunion
men were more or less seriously wound
ed at tbe Oneida colliery, of Coxa
Brothers, in a clash between the offi
aers and 500 strikors this morning.
Tha dead policeman is Ralph Mills,
aged 50 years, of Beaver Meadow, who
'was one of the oflloers conveyed in a
special train early this morning from
that place to Oneida. He was shot
through the back,
Those seriously wounded are: George
Kellnor, aged 88, of Beaver Meadow,
also a special officer, received shot
wounds in the head, but will recover;
Joseph Lekow, aged 88, of Sbapptou, a
striker, shot in the groin aud will
probably die.
Tea nonunion meii were stoned, but
only two of them were seriously in
jured. They are John Vaa Blargia aad
James Tosh; of Sbeppteu, The former
sustained scalp wounds, aad the latter
bad four riba broken.
The Oneida colliery bad been is
operation alnoe tbe inauguration of the
strike. The unlou men at Oneida aud
Sheppton decided early tills morning
to ulose the mine. They gathered la
groups ou tho streets as early as 8
o'clock. As the nouunlon men weat
to work they were asked by the strikers
to lemaln at home. Some turned back,
others did not. Those who went' to
tbe colliery were stoned, Van mar
gin, one of tho nonunion employes, at
tempted to draw 'a revolver, but tha
woapon was taken from biin,uud he re
ceived a beating. This ooourred just
before starting time at th mine. Tha
strikers remained at the colliery all
morning.
Jnpaa Turns to Kiisela.
Yokohama, Oot. 12. The tone of
publlo sentiment iu Japan, while It
partakes of the general bewilderment
arising from tbe muddle in China, in
dicates quite plainly that there ia a
decided tendency toward joining bands
with Russia, should this emplro's nat
ural allies, Great Britain and America,
turn the cold shoulder to ber. At the
same time it is perfectly well knows
here that Russia's hopes are centering
in an ultimate alliance with Japan
and it may be that tbe latter, if the
Western frienda forsake her, will tare
to her aeinl-AHlaio neighbor as the only
resource for the settlement of the East
ern problem. That it will bo a dis
agreeable and unwelcome recourse goes
without saying. Tho result of tha
Chinese campaign and the facilitiea lor
comparison between the soldiers of tha'
different nationalities, which It baa
afforded, baa been to awaken a prot
found contempt for Russian soldlwy
on the partofjhe Japanese.
