1ilgi PoInt or Mar 17. has at Inst had the
effect of cutting oTt receipts. and today only
thirty-two bails were counted In the yards.
: it was the quallest TUU of the month and
the lIglitcs of any day since the middle
of April. Shtpperl. howevcr , IiItIt bear In
i nntI that the declIne Is general at all

from any other.

ionipnrntle Menenremeal , , sf Sal-
dintpi of OIlier Lnni1s-1)fecIe Its
% 'oiunfcers-Whnf Consulates
the 1dnl Soldier. ' ' '
The Yankee Is a much bigger nine than
the Spaniard , and that is an Important act-
vanthgo for the American in this war , With
all his pride of race the haughty Don is it
little fellow ; In stature he th least among
the Europeans , averagIng only five and one-
half inches over five feet , The soldier who
fights under the stars and stripes nveragos
five feet seven and one-bali' inches , in his
stockIng feet ; ho weighs ten pounds more
than the Spaniard , and his chest girth Is
nearly two inches greater , These are points
that count on the field of battle.
Of course , size is not everything In a
soldier , Never in history has it counted
for so little as It. doc today , Inasmuch as
modern warfare is conducted chiefly by
machinery , battles are fought at long ranges ,
and hand-tohand encounters are rare. The
Japanese are smaller than the Spaniards ,
yet there are no fiercer lighters ; the Amen-
can Indians , on the other hand , nrc superior
In stature to the Yankees. lOut , other
things being equal , the bigger mann has an
advantage. The Yankee is the tallest of
civilized macn ; In Europe only the Norwegian -
wegian approaches bun nearly Ia 'this respect -
spect , and the Englishman is a fulhinch
shorter.
Recruits for the war with Spain have been
subjected to physical examinations of Un-
onrahleled kevcrity , 20 and even 25 per cent.
of'many companies being thrown out on
account of defects. The supply of men Is
so much greater than the demand that re-
quinements hare been raised proportionately -
ately , and the soldiers gathered for this
conflict on the American sIde whit average
higher in reapect to bodily development and
health than any army mver before assemn-
bled by any nation. Fledgling yduths , such
as were enlisted so nunm rously In the civil
vfl _ trill ha rnn.nln.initc h.p IhnI , 'ntnnr.n
There will be no drummer boys of nursery
ago and fat men nnd bow-legged men will
be turned down.
Physical Defects.
The average volunteer rejected on his
"physical" these days is a very rnJ astonished -
ished person , lie has been accustomed to
consider himself as roprescntlhg , pretty
nearly at all events , time beau ideal of man-
hood. antI his surprise is great when a cold-
eyed military surg on picks out flaws all
over hIm. Be is too tall , perhaps. Not
that six feet and a bIt over is an objectionable -
able stature , but very tail men are apt to
lack depth of chest , which Is a quality indispensable -
dispensable In a soldier. Depth of chest
means lung capacity , which implies endurance -
rance , marching ability , etc.
'The surgeon inspects the teeth of the
would-be recruit , as if he were a horse , and
turns him down If they are bail. Good teeth
are required for the proper cliewic of food ;
defective ones mean dyspepsia.,1. f it be
true that an army "travels oe-i&itomnch"
the individual fighting man l handicapped
by trouble with his digestive apparatus.
Maybe the volunteer is too short , or too
fat. Plunmpness is well enough , but the War
department wants no fat men , because they
lack strength , endurance and activity. Besides -
sides , fat is a symptom of physical degcn7
eracy , and is apt to meanwcakness or the
heart ,
The volunteer. "fit" in other respects is
likely to be amazed at iinding himself rejected -
jected because his feet arc excessively flat ;
yet the requirements are carried to such
an extreme as this. It seern that a very'
flat-footed soldier does not make a satisfactory -
tory Infantryman , because he cannot march
well. Negroes , of course , are xtromely
fiat-footed , but data arc lacking to show
how their marching powers compare with
those of whites. During the civil war they
cliii some pretty good marching , certainly.
Necessarily , the recruit must have proper
feet. and even his toes must answer to cer-
tam 81)eClflCatiofla. An ingrowing nail , or
oven a corn , will count seriouly against
him. ibow-lcggcd and knoclckneeci men are
objectionable , partly because they do not
look well. The military art has its aesthetic
side.
During the present war much attention
will ho paid to time gathering of statistics
of all sorts relating to the soldiers. This
was done /0 some extent during the clvii
conflict amid some. of the most interesting
facte noted had to do with the varying stature -
ure of recruits from dlOtomemit parts bf time
country. 'rime biggest macn came tram Kentucky -
tucky , averaging a trifle over five Teet eight

'l'hie Idesit Sttldit'r ,
Tim ideal heIght ( or a soldier is five feet
ten and one-hiatt incimps. At that stature the
most perfect physical development seems to
be attained. The popular notIon that a mann
stops growing at about 20 or 21 years of

1triimnmuem ( of the Cruiser l'umrelsneei
from ! lrnsil ,
The Scientific American of May 21 gIves
a description of the guns of the cruiser
New Orleans , recently put into commission
cad attached to Commodore Schiey's squad-
i-on. The cruiser w1u purchased from the
Uraziiian government , It Is British built
itad Its guns were furnished by the Arm-
strongs. The article &ays :
The main armsnmext Is made up its fol'
lows : There are three'O4inch rapid-fire. SO-
caliber guns forward , one en either beam
deck and one sponso1T'ut on eitimer beam
on time gun deck ; thre'S fiibch rapid-fire guns
aft. on the poop and two In sponsons
on the gun deck. Ot1thso guns. three can
be trained deem ! ahejuL.-three dead astern
and two on either brOnMSlde. On the gun
deck , in broadside bltvn the 6-Inch guns ,
there are also tour 4ipcii rapid-fire guns.
The secondary battofy ' consists of ten 0-
pounders , of which s 1fl'e on the gun deck
and four on the p000' soil forecastle deck.
Those who are fantihiar with the appearance -
anco of the larger Fiffc will notice that
these guns are unususlly long , the ingth
being fifty calibers oitwenty.flvo feet. It is
only a few years 8inl'lthirty-fivo calibers
was the limit for riiliIg1Jns , The Increased
length is adopted to greater velocity.
With a given charge at powder the veiocity
of a shell will be proportional to the time
during which the gaites of explosion act
upon it in tIme bore of the gun. The longer
they can exert their pressure upon the shell
the greater will be the velocity with which
it. will issue from the muzzle ,
The increase of energy mitmo to increaed
velocity is extremely valualmle in time navy ,
where it Is desirable to save all possible
weight. If by increasing its velocity we
can make a five-inch shell penetrate as far
as a six-inch shell , we can save about emma-
halt the weight of a six-inch battery , It
is considered that , so long as the shell can
bo put through a ship's armor , its size is
of secondary importance. If an eight-inch
simeli could be made to penetrate tIme side
armor of a ship and burst in the engine or
boller.room. It would be certain to disable
the ship almost as surely as a ten-inch or
twelve-inch shell ,
To show vhat velocity will accomplish
it. may ho noted that a four-inch 40'caiiber
gun has a muzzle energy of about 1,000 foot-
tons and will penetrate ten inches of iron
at the muzzle ; whereas an 50-caliber gun
of the same bore has 2,055 foot-tons of
energy , a muzzle velocity of 3,216 feet per
second and a muzzle penetration of IS. ?
inches , Again , the six.immch 30-caliber gun ,
with a velocity of 2,000 feet Per second ,
penetrates fourteen inches of iron at the
muzzle , as against 2,612 foot-seconds vu-
locity anti 21.2 inches penetration for the
50-caliber six-inch gumt mounted on tIme
Now Orleans ,
It was largely the fIve-inch , ninny cali-
bored , rapid-fire batteriek of Commodore
Dewey's squadron that swept time Spanish
fleet out of existence by time awful ball of
shells which they poured upon it.
The 6-inch gun of the Now Orleans is
carried in a trunnion sleeve oF seating , in
which it slides. It is held In time forwarder
or loading position 2)3' coil springs , inciosed
in two cylinders wlmich form part of the
seating. Attached to the guns are two pistons -
tons which travel in time cylinders , time int-
ten being filled vflhm glycerine. When the
gun is fired limo gun iides back in time sleeve
carrying the pistons with it , and the recoil
is checked by the resistance set up by the
glycerine in traveling through thin pistons ,
time passage of the fihid lmeing throttled by
a grgdualiy ciosin' ' 'rlve. After time gun
lmas macto its fieqojJt isjeturnetI to the
1oadlnr nosltton by the at1nn of time enii
spnings , .whlcfl care' Iconmfmrea.'cndfduniog the
recoil. The gun.and the-gun crew are coin-
pletely lirotecte0 ofl limO froit , sides and
overhead by a hIarvs steel shield , which
is four Inches in thickness in front of the
gun. The shield conmsmown close to tIme
deck , anti , as it is i.ol'ted { to the carriage
and rotates with It , the-crew arc sate from
machine gun buIietsdnV' the lighter rapid-
fire shells.
The sights , of which. there are two separate -
ate sets , one on eae1side of 'the gun , are
attached to the trunjonTs1eeve and are not
affected by the recoil. The gumm is carefully
balanced upon a eoleal mount. which is
firmly bolted down tci"Lho framing of the
deck. It rotates on-a-race of steel balls ,
and the balance , whti 'it Is in the loading
positIon , is so perq 1m.at the whole piece ,
weighing oyer seven and a imaif tons , can
ho mowed with a very-slight pressure , Attached -
tached to time left-1mamd side of the carriage
and swinging with the' gun is a platform ,
upon which the gunner stands. A similar
platform Is hung from the right-hand side
of the carriage and in line with the right-
hand sigimts. Just in front of the gunmmer
are two hand wheels , one vertical , one imori-
zontal , for training ad elevating the piece.
In front of time platforpi is stowed away a
small electric baltery from which wires lead
to the breech imlock for ienitinz the charge.
This is done by limo gunner pressing a small
rubber air bulb.
It is possible that the murderous imahl
of bullets from an enemy's machine gimims
may find its way througim time open slots
in time shield and carry away tile siglmts.
If this should happen , time gmmmm could Imavo
the proper elevation by means of time graduated -

gunner. On the inside of the shield to his
heft is a table giving elevation for vanloua

time proper numnher corresponding on time arc
to the distance of time enemy's ship.

covering all possIble subjects of future dii-

on both parties , providing for the joint use
of the Nicaraguan canal , amid embracing
ivimat would amount. to an alliance , offensive
and defensive , to the end that Great Iiritaiii
may enjoy in peace its Asiatic possessions ,
wlmhho the United States will lmave a share
of the trade in that quarter and will be
secure also in time application of the Monroe
doctrine. All of those subjects have boon
discussed from home to time in the zmrcss of
time United States and England , and the
probable basis for the coalition at. this time
is to be found Ia Mr. Clmamnberlain's pcech
recently delivered , which baa aroused so
mmmcli interest. on both hemispheres ,
So far as the Nicaraguan canal Is con.
cerned , it Is pointed out that if the Utmiteti
States contemplated joint use of that mmmeang
of commimimnication there will be no Imeces-
sity for including such a provision in a
treaty , inasmimuch as Umo same result would
simply be an affirmation that time Clayton-
Btmlwer treaty , tmnder the terms of whietm
botlm the United States and Oreat Britain
declared for joint control of any waterway
to be constructed In the future , is still in
force , The trade relations are even now
being adjusted on a imew basis tlmrough time
drafting of an mmgrecmnent between Sit' JflAn
l'auncefoto for Great BrItain and Mr. ICes-
son for the United States , under the ternis
of tIme reciprocity sections of the Ditmgley
bill. This has advanced almost to cotnple-
tion and the result may be proclaimed
within the next week uolcss sonmo unforeseen -
seen delays are encountered.
Time taik of a union on an interpretation
of time Monroe doctrine is ratlmer sentimental
than practical at thmls stage and there is time

tlon , time British premier nowhere udmittoit
any application of the Sionroe doctrine to
the boundary qtmcstiorm , and so tar its Is
known there lies been no chammge in Uritisim
sentIment on that point. tip to this time.
As to the relations of the United States
and Great Britain in respect to Asiatic
trade , timore is no reason to believe that
there has been any change Ia the policy of
our own government wlmich , while animnatott
by the kindliest feelings toward the British'
and appreciating what has been done by
Great Britain to liberalize Chinese trade ,
I has confined Its efforts to the single object
. of protecting American trade from invidious
discrimination and so Mn , it is believed ,
with signal success.
In British omcinl circles here much satisfaction -
isfaction is felt. at time conspicuous growtim
of friendship between limo English-speaking
ocoplo on both sides of the water , bill it. is
the view in these circles that it Is a healtlty
and desirable growtim which cannot find mm.

in the course of Limo as time restmlt of vtmblie
