"WASHINGTON NOTES. WASHINGTON , December 5. The annual tepotcof thaeocroUry"of the navy was made public to-day. Secretary Chandler enys tlio dopartmeut is confirmed In the opinion that the criticism * ) advanced last year ng.dnst new i ships were of llttlo moment or based upon theories at varinuco with the progress of mod ern shin building. Comparisons of f pocd bo- twcoii the now cruisers and great Trans-At- 1 lantic racing steamers nro unfair , because tlio . latter attain their speed only by sacrificing I < ] U.litiea essential to ship war. They am nn- * ' , protected , unwelldly , and of enormous draft f and dimensions. The uutnber of thorn pos- Bossing very high speed Is email and tlio ? > | ? iiew cruisers could overtake ninety * j selv per cent of the murcha it in Jitoamers in the world. The rate of speed as- fignod the now ships are based \crycon- - i > erv.itivo calculations at their probable per- . . forinance and they will undoubtedly exceed , t i the eBtiniate , but tlio first uuarmorcd cruisers ' * ' of the now American Hoot are not intended for comparison in speed with the unprotected racing ships of enormous size or iu the defen sive power with the modern iron clads. The secretary recommends the construction _ of ev en modern cruisers annually for a period of ton years. Such a plan , ho says , while conforming to the conservative demands of our national policy and afford ing ample time for adopting Jevcry new device In the iconatructiou would give the country , at a. Ainodcrato cost , and an ndcquato training of ' 'its ' olticers and maintain ita safety and honor. In regard to the existing navy Chandler says : i "It appears from the condition of the fleet that at the end of the next fifteen years the only cruising vo-wols on the present list re maining will bethreo Email iron vessels the Monocaey , Alert and ranger. The real explanation of disproportion between thu expenditure and the results accomplished by the local administration is to bo found In the policy of attempting , at a great cast , to rehabilitate worn out structures under the name of repairs. Kepair and construction In the absence of the fixed limit are terms ' easily interchangeable , and the published statement of expenditures under the first name during many years , ibow it is only too apt to mean the second , llio bureaus are unrestricted - [ restricted in their expenditures for ro- mnirs , eicept by the gross amount of thuir annual appropriations , ithe practice of reconstructing vessels under the niui : < - of repair is only n pretext upon 'which ' our overgrown navy yard establish- nuiits cou'd ' be justified , und it appears instead ot maintaining our yards _ for the advantage - vantage and benefit of our ships , the ships have dragged out a protracted existence for the benefit of the yards. Concerning navy yards , the secretary holds only two naval work-shops should bo maintained on the Atlantic const mid ono on the Pacific , namely , New York , Norfolk and Mnro island. These would need certain improvements iu organization ; first , all politics ehould bo excluded from their management ; secondly , responsibility for \work mutt be more definitely fixed. The secretary reports a removal from Siberia of the bodies of Lieut , commander De Long of thu Jeanette and his companions and give the history of the Urccly relief expedition , the expenditures for which wore ! > 7i-,90j. ( In tha preparation of the ex > , pedition there was no omission or mishap add UN success retlected high honornnd credit upon tl.o American navy. The sun foundry board was reconvened In April to decide on full plans and estimates to carry out its recommendations It has obtained Information that there aio reHpon iblo steel manufactures In thii country who , although not provided at present with the necoasaiy plane , are willing to construct the 6 < ime and make bids for contracts with the governniBiit for a supply of material for the heat iest guns if guaranteed na ordei of sulli- < ient magnitude , with n positive appropriation coveimg a serif * of years shall bo niado by , i-cngrcus. Secretary Chandler details facts In ' > connection with frauds in the bureau of medl- , cine nnd surgery. The amount of tug- ' ) > ected vouchers is fcl'.il.fys , extending i over a period from 1870 to 1881 The mrgeon V Rtner.il neglected to reijnlro the customary j Bvideuco that thu goods had been received. T The frauds were made easier by the frequent UHO of thu exigency clause , under which pur chases are made without advertising. The expenditure of the department for the fiscal , xear ended Juno 'M , Ibbl , were § 17J92i01. ! ( ICstnnatos for ordinary purchases and public work for the next fiscal year are S17,8tOG50 , und the estimate for the increase of the navy is $10,071,1)72. Of this latter sum about one- half would be neoiled the coming fiscal year , Tto secretary comments severely ujon the existing practice of securing the solicitations of persona possessed of pollticial or social in- W , lluence In bchaf | of otlicerR , whether for the jmrposa of securing agri-cable duty oreffecting a restoration bylepitilatumof those whohave been dismissed for drunkenness or other miscon duct or for Incapacity. Ho says such restora tions demoralize the service. 1'ublic opinion ' should sternly condemn all who have been t'ullty of misconduct In olfico as well H those ? who lend themselves to efforts for the restora tion of officers removed. Indlirussing this sub ject ho refers to the president's veto messsago on the l ° iU John Porter bill as "pointing out the unconstitutionality of such legislation and Nhnwlng the constitution has provided and ftfectuiil barrier to any roUorutiou by let-lain- tura of particular ollicurv. " In conclusion Chandler dwells upon the clwe connection between tlio improvement of ( the navy and development of tlio Merchant ; , ' < marine service and proceeds to show that to make the latter commensurate with our trade , our coast line , and numbdr und wealth of our commercial cities , we must have great linoi of ocean steamships of higher speed and large capacity for carrying our flag to the most distant lands and saving to our iieoplo the vast profits of the carrying trade. The only way to accomplish tills , ho sajB , is through direct encouragement given by the government , eittier in thu form of bounties npun construction , or payment for carrying malli , so that American capitalists will be In duced to embark In the business , The recent . enactment * repealing the laws requiring all rMinerican vessels arbitrarily to carry ' 'foreign mails he Bald should be supplemented by a provision that contracts for carrying such 'walls ' on American lines of steamers over all the principal ocean highways should he let for [ terms of years to the lowest bidder.
