A NEW ARMY BILL.
Chairman Hall Summon Home Mil
itary Com m l tee.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27. Chairman
Hull of the house committee on military
affairs lias called a meeting of the com
mittee for this afternoon. lie hopes that
a (luoruin will be present and that the
committee can go to work Immediately
upon the outlines of a new army bill.
"It will be in the direction of economy
to puss the army bill without delay," said
Mr. Hull. "The unity now in the Philip-
CONGRESSMAN J. A. T. HULL.
iueg will have to be brought home in the
summer that is, those of the men who do
not care to re-enlist. The transports
which go out for them should depart la
den with the troops who are to replace
them, else the ships will make one voy
age empty."
Mr. Hull was in conference Inst week
with the president und .with otliciuls of
the war department upon the character
of legislation desired by the administra
tion. He said the president will commu
nicate to congress very fully his recom
mendations about the army, and he did
not assume to speak the president's mind
' in advance.
He thought, however, that the adminis
tration would not be content with any
makeshift legislation, no proposition to
ojininuo the present law for two years
more. His impression was that the presi
dent wanted authority to raise a regular
army siillicient for the needs of the coun
try 100,000 men, if necessary the num
ber to I reduced when there was no lou
sier need for them.
Mr. Hull said the Tuft commission had
reported that 15,000 Filipinos could be
filiated immediately in the army for the
Philippines and that they would make
good soldiers under American otlicers.

Dr. Morrison, wiring to The Times
from Peking Sunday, soys:
"The foreign envoys have ngreed to
two proposals that were previously reject
ed, owing to lack of unanimity. These
nre Sir ICrncst Satow's proposal that
China should agree to recast the commer
cial treaties and the Italian proposal that
China should consent to foreign financial
control as a guarantee of the indemnity.
"The delay in the presentntioii of the
joiat note is due to postponements by the
home governments. This increases the
ditlicultics of the situation and aggra
vates the dislocation of trade and finance,
especially the collection of inland reve
nues! At the lowest estimate the indem
nity is computed at l0,OlHI,000."

OPERATIONS OF ASIATIC SQUADRON,

sel I nder t ons! met ion 'Will
ltetilre Much l.nraer Force,
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-The nnnu
nl report of the secretary of the navy,
Just made public, open with n history of
the operations of the Asiatic squadron
Among other thing Secretary Inng says.
"The fleet on the Asiatic station has co
operated with the army in the Philip
pines, transporting and convoying troops,
patrolling a wide area of badly chart
ed waters, sending out landing parties
nnd keeping (lie coast Hear of the enemy.
Tlie small gunboats have been of great
value iu preventing the landing of arms
for the Insurgents nnd cutting off illicit
trade with ami (inning the Islands.
"The cordiality which has character
ized t ho rein t ion of the nrmy nnd nnvy
is shown by numerous reports from otli
cers on duty in the Philippines nnd is
alike creditable to both branches of the
service.
"In view of the disturbed condition In
Asiatic waters nud of the demand upon
the n.-y the department early in the
year deemed it expedient to augment the
force in that quarter. The commander
in chief of the Asiatic station. Hear Ad
miral ftcincy, was accordingly given an
assistant. Bear Admiral KemplT. to in
sure under command of an otlicer of rank
and experience n division of the fleet if
necessnry in quarters distant from the
Philippines. Almost Immediately there
after elrcumstnnees made it necessary to
maintain n separate force in Chinese wa
ters, and the junior rear admiral was or
dered to proceed with a squadron to
Tuku. China.
"When, therefore, an optical for help
came from (he legations at Peking, this
government not mily had nn adequate
naval force at the nearest senport town,
but also was able to send forward imme
diately n force of marines for the protec
tion of the I'nitcd States legation.
"The annuls of history present few ex
amples of more dramatic interest than
the story of the beleaguered legations in
Peking, from June 20, liMKl, the dote on
which the German minister wns killed
and the siege began, until Aug. 14. when
the allied forces entered the Chinese capi
tal. Oftlcial nnd unoltleial reports, nnd
particularly the dispatches of our min
ister, show that the American marines
bore their full share iu the burdens of de
fense during this memorable siege.
"The United States legation was sit
uated just inside of nnd near to the wnll
of the Tartar city. When the legntions
were assaulted, the American detach
ment immediately occupied n position on
the city wull, a strategic point of great
importance; established an improvised
sandbag fort there, which enabled them
to defend the section of wall Immediate
ly commanding the legations, und. al
though repeatedly attacked by over
whelming numbers ami on two occasions
driven for a few minutes from the wall,
they were never permanently dislodged,
but held this vital position until relief
came.
"In tlie meantime the foreign settle
ment in Tien-tsin itself was subjected
to attack, ami communication between
that city und Taku was interrupted. On
the lUth of June a detachment of 8 offi
cers and l.'!2 enlisted men, chiefly from
the first regiment of marines dispatched
from Cuvite br the Newark nnd Nash
ville, arrived at Taku. Instructions were
immediately given that this force should
take part iu the forward movement for
the relief of the besieged at Tien-tsin.
"To record the instances of gallantry
displayed by our ollicers uud men ut the
capture of Tien-tsin would almost be
equivalent to u publication of tlie entire
roster."
The secretnry then refers briefly to
the movements of the north uud south
Atlantic squadrons and at the Pacific
station. I'nder the head of uavy per
sonnel he says:
"The ueud of ollicers for sen duty is
steadily growing, and at times the' de
partment is seriously embarrassed by lack
of necessary ollicers to properly man ves
sels required for immediate siT.
"This need will be still greater when
vessels authorized or building are com
pleted and ready for commission. The
report of the bureau of navigation rep
resents that it would be impossible ut tho
present time to man our available Heel
were an emergency to occur demanding
such action. AttcntiifFMs earnestly in
vited to thc-dctuiled ingestions of this
report and to the statement that with tho
completion of vessels now under con
struction an immediate increase will be
needed in the enlisted force of not less
thuu 5.000 men. '
A list is given of the 51 vessels, large
and small, now under construction, show
ing the progress of tho work. Nearly all
of the above number will be completed
before the close of 1001. In conclusion
the secretury says:
"The bestowal of special rewards is
urged because it is appropriate and just
I hat they should lie given, and not from
the fear that duty will not be will done
without them. The fact that the nation's
acknowledgments ure lugging behind the
brilliant performance of its ollicers and
men iu active service does not seem to
have in any degree impaired the quality
of their patriotism and devotion to duty.
"The past year has been so prolific of
such examples that, while the enumera
tion of them in detail is here impractica
ble, the department calls special atten
tion to the olliciol reports in which they
appear. They ure found in every line of
the naval service, not only iu buttle,
which makes service conspicuous, but
on the voyage, iu watches along the coast,
in expeditions to distant islands, in the
trying responsibilities of command, often
unaided and alone, In the unmartial work
of transportation, in hospital nnd on .ita
tion, in surveys and soundings, iu In
struction ami discipline, in the inestima
bly valuable preparatory work of the bu
reaus uud navy yards and in all the
shifting variety of exacting duties iu
which service, if not conspicuous, is none
the less deserving and is rendered with u
zeul, loyalty uud ability as heroic In the
homely routine of common place us when
exhibited on the field of glory. There is
no finer type of the public servant train
ed to high sense of his olilcial obligations
and no hand iu which the honor of Ids
country and the rights of Its citizen.? ure
safer than is to be found iu the uuvy o
the United Stutes."
