An Idea of tho extent and resources of nn Indus try with which the general public is little acquainted is about .to be fur nished In connection with the tour of President Roosevelt and party across the continent. Persons who have noticed tho street vendors who lino the curbs on the occasion of any public gathering and dispose or cheap badges and other r.nudy fouvenirs to the crowd would hardly believe that these ubiquitous and noisy gentry represent a calling that of lato years has reached vast pioportions In America nnd Is backed by resourceful brains and vast capi tal. That such is a fact, however, Is ev idenced by plans that have boon per fected in this city whereby it hns been arranged that a party or more than a score or these prorcssional fakirs or hawkers shall accompany tho pres idential party from tho time it reaches Chicago day after tomorrow until It returns to Washington In June alter the accomplishing n trip to the far Pacific Northwest. It being Impossible to travel in the presidential train it Is necessary that tho vendors of souvenirs, ennes, etc., keep constantly jumping ahead nnd waiting for the presidential special to catch up. Thus n party of 10 will reach a city the day before the pres ident and he on hand to supply the ciowds. while another party that has covered the preceding stop will be jumping to the second or third city and awaiting the coming of the dis tinguished tourists. Meanwhile other members of the "syndicate" aro to remain In New York to ship the souvenirs to points previously agreed upon. Tho success of the project means n largo outlay of capital and incidentally a study or lime tables and a mapping out or a route In tho same careful manner as Is done by a big circus on tour.

Persons who fol low the trend of events In shipbuild ing nnd tho breaking of records on tho Atlantic ocean by great liners are awaiting with keenest Interest the re sults of tho trial trip begun today of the North Germnn Lloyd trans-Atlantic liner, the Kaiser Wllhelm II. From the day tho keel uf the big liner was laid the company has not concealed Its hope that sho will bo oblo to make the trip from Snndy Hook to Plymouth nt n dally nvorngo speed of 23?6 knots an hour. Should tho great liner be nblo to llvo up to this promlso sho will, of course, come newer making the passage In llvo days than was ever done before, nnd will (stnblish her absolute right to tho title of "Queen of tho Sea" ln practi cally every respect. That tho hopes of tho builders nro not without foundation Is evidenced by h comparison of tho now ship with some of the biggest liners now in the Atlantic service. Tho Knlsor Wllhelm II Is equipped with engines capable of 40,000 horso power. The noutschland has about 37,000 and the Kronprintz of tho Hamburg-American line, which nt present holds tho rec ord for speed, has nbout 34,000 horse power. Tho displacement figures of tho Knlsor Wllhelni II nro 20,t00 tons, which is enough to fill n canal 30 feet wide, fi feet deep nnd B.1K3 reel long. As for the coal bunkers, their size will bo appreciated when It Is Known that their cnpaclty is four times as largo ns the biggest (initio- snip alloat and equal to Ihc enrgo capacity of a large ocean tramp. The vessel will havo accomodations lor S00 flrst-chiss pnsscngers. 400 sec ond cabin, and 1,100 steerngo pnsson gers, besides tho BOO persons who will compose the officers and crow. In Its Interior fittings nnd decorations the ship will excel in many respects the finest steamship alloat.

Tl.o lirbt important step toward the formation or the general staff of the army as provided for a recent act of congress, was taken today when tho board ap pointed by the president to recom mend details for the general staff corps began its first meeting In this city. Tho board consists of Generals Young. Chaffee, Bates, Carter, Bliss and Randolph. The duty of tho board la to recommend for detail 42 oincers from the army at large, in cluding tho existing staff corps and departments and the lino, to complete the first organization, exclusively of general officers, of tho general staff as constituted by tho recent act of congress. The now law will not go into effect until August 15, because that is tho date uuon which General Miles rotlres from active service, and both tho president and congress desire to avoid anything that might bo interpreted as a reflection upon or Interference with him. General Young, who Is to bo tho first chief of staff, Is already engaged lu preparing plans for tho organiza tion of tho new corps, which will con slst of lilmsejf, two other generals, four colonels, six lieutenant-colonels, 12 majors and 20 captains to bo de tailed for periods of four years from the different brunches of the service. At tho ?nd of their details they must return to their regular duty and can not serve again upon the general staff corps for an Interval of two years, except In time of war or in case of emergency. These officers while serving on tho general staff are actually being educated lu tiie science of war. Thoy may be assigned to any duty the president sees fit and required to pursue any course of study that he may designate. Tho Idea Is to qual ify as many officers as can be spared from their regular duties for positions of responsibility in tlmeof war; to give them a training that thoy can not obtain while serving with their regiments and performing tho ordl nary duties or a soldier In tlmo of peace. As an auxiliary to tho goner nl staff corps tho new war college, which is to be established In Wash ington, will give officers what .may be called a post-graduate course In mili tary cslence.
