THE ft'A It .
Secretary Proctor Makes His liopor
to the President. .
'WASIIIXOTON' , Nov. 17. [ Special Telograi
toTun BIK. ] The report of Socrotar
of War Proctor to the president has bee
made public. It reviews the military situ ;
tlon of the country nnd the legislation' tb
present congress affecting the army. Thl
legislation has been unusually Important an
embraces provisions for lineal promotion an
professional examinations therefor , acts fo
the prevention of desertion , for limitations c
punishments under the articles , of war an
appropriations for additional machinery fo
the manufacture of largo guns , and.-for th
beginning- system of coast defenses.
On the subject of coast defenses the seen
tary says : It has been our traditional polic
from the flrst to avoid entangling alliance !
Wo are separated by an ocean from'tho pou
era which maintain armies. The military
sources of the nation have boea 'so rccentl
demonstrated and its not work of railways i
so adapted to a rapid concentration of troop
on any threatened point , that no hostile fore
is likely to seek an encounterwith us on ou
own soil. A small army sent upon our shore
could not hope for success ; it Is not probabl
tbat any largo ono will incur the risk. W
have , therefore , little to fear from Invasior
and are free from the necessity of mulntaii
Ing largo standing- armies or of.fortlfym
against land attacks.
Under the fortification act of last sesslo
position for forty-eight mortars In , thrc
.groups of sixteen ouch , and for three of tb
now long-range guns will bo" prepared in NOT
YoiJc harbor ; for ono group of mortars an
ono gun in Boston harbor , und forlono grou
of mortars and two guns In San Frnnckicx
As this Is a matter In which makeshift * froi
year to year are both expensive und desirui
tivo of the object to bo attained , I Jrust tbu
a fixed policy may bo adopted In the line of
roasonaulo yearly approprlatloa for-thocon
plctlon of the work ou which the nation Js bu
just entering.
The report shows that desertions from 111
army have decreased " 4 per coat over u you
auo. The secretary recommends thttt con
Kress consider the subject of throa battalia
formation for infantry. The publication c
the rebellion records Is progressing1 favoi
ably. Forty-five books have boon publlshe
and distributed up to Juno 30 , IS'JO.
The policy ot the department to cancer
truto its troops at larger posts as rapidly a
the requirements of the service would poi
mlt has been carried out during the year , an
sixteen posts have been given up and the re
servf.tlons turned over to tbo department c
the Interior , In order that they might b
taken up by the people for private use. Thl
has only been done , however , where it wa
felt tbat the presence of tbo troops in thos
particular localities was no longer necessary
and that their maintenance there was mail
ing needless extra expense.
The licenses of forty-two post ' trader
have boon revolted during the year , loavlni
only tblrty-four traders nt present la the ser
vice , as tno secretary believes it to her wls
policy to discontinue this privileged class.
Under the head of exploration of Alask
the secretary says : '
In order to obtain exact and trustworth ;
information concerning this territory I hnv
approved a proposition to organize
thoroughly equipped expedition to make
aystcmatlu exploration and survey of Aloskc
The duty will bo trying and arduous at th
best , but It will be cheerfully undertake :
both by coini > ctent ofllccrs und by the me ;
and with , In my opinion , a fair prospect c
.Important results. I recommend that aTiuitl

currying the plan into effect.
