In this connection Captain Abcr- Tomblo hw Biibmltted some addltloiut artl- : les of value which are now being examined jy the quartermaster general of the army.

It Is stated In official circle * Miat Gfner.il Miles has an emblem In xlew which ho will urge iho sesretary of war to adopt for the uniform ot every commissioned and non commissioned officer In the nrmy. Ho will suggest thai a national dovlce , probably thu coat-of-arnis of the United States , be place I over the chevron of every noncomml Alotu\l officer nnd on the collar or ether cuovcnlrnt place on the uniform of every officer. Gen eral Mllca believes that the national eos.t-oN arms with the motto , "U Plurlbm Unum , " would bo an etiprccrlnto device. While lit Uiiropo General Miles observed Kiat the sol diers and sailors ot nearly nil the greut lu- tlons wore the Inslgnili of a croxvn or somu other lmprtl.it mark \ooii their uniforms IIo believes the Idea Id worthy of adoption nt home , and that the American uniform should display the emblem of th republic. At the qtnrtermnster depot In Philadelphia a noxv material supposed to bo suitable * for shelter touts Is being tested.

A possible defect In the material Is that It has two different surfaces It Is thought that this may bo overcome In the manufac ture and nn Inquiry to this end hn been Instituted by the quartermasters It is dc- str.vblo that shelter tent material shall b uniform.
