MOODY IS THE REAL HEAD OF THE NAYY Haw Secretary Has Ideas Which Clash with the Bareaa Chiefs i Men Who Hit, left iaapa. (Prom a BUff Correspondent.) WABHINOTOnI July 11. (Special.) Sec retary Root 1, considering plana tor a erlea of mtlltarr maneuvers at certain western poata next fall. These maneuvers will b la the nature of instruction in taetlra and ara eipected to be of much benefit to tne oRlcera and men fjartlclpat lng. Mr. Root baa long been of the opin ion that a aratem of Instruction of the kind Indicated should be made a permanent feature of our mlliurr system and he baa recommended to congress the enactment of legislation that would make Ha adop tion possible. Fort Riley is one of, the placea selected for the maneuvers next fall. It baa not been determined when 'the man euvers will take place, but it la likely that they will be ordered for the laat week of September. The secretary aald today he would leave for Europe about August 10, that be would not return before Sep tember 15 and that arrangements for the maneuvers would not bo completed until bis return. I Previous plana of the secretary depended upon the passage of the bill introduced In 'the bouse by Representative Dick of Ohio, reorganizing the state militias. This bill was drawn by the War department and Sec retary Root waa very anxious that it be (paused at the last session. It did not jcome up in the house until the. cloelng 4Iaya of the aesslon and then waa post poned until the next session. It provides a plan that will bring the citizen soldiers Into close relation with the regular mll- 1 j grgMiLHiiini uu ti. Pinu wuikiud m section providing that the aecretary of war ahall provide for the participation by the Various state militias in the encampment, maneuvers and field Instruction of any part of the regular army at military posts and ; camps. The militia so participating ia to receive the same pay, subsistence and trans portation as la provided by law for the ofllcera and men of the regular army. Had thla bill become a law the aecretary would have arranged a serlea of tnaneuvera at Fort Riley during thla summer. It Is likely that It will be passed early in the next aesalon and If ao the maneuvers will be held next spring. The plana for the maneuvers next fall provide for the mob ilization of Infantry and cavalry of the regular army at Fort Riley for auch prac tice as may be decided upon later. In the courae of time It Is hoped that campa of Instruction can be opened at several potnta. A board of officers has i aelected the sites for these campa, but congress baa not made provision for the purchase of ground at the polnta recom mended.' It baa been definitely determined that the Joint maneuvers between the army and 'navy shall, take place from August 30 to September 6.' President Roosevelt will at tend and will probably witness the maneu Tra from Mayflower. Moody ia Head of Hary, Secretary Moody of the Navy department baa started bla administration of that de partment ao Ttgoroualy that the beada of bureaus are amazed. 'When. Mr. Moody assumed the position of aecretary be let It b understood among the bureaucrats at the Navy department that be and not they would direct mattera of public policy with which the department waa connected. Secretary Long waa recognized as a fine executive official, but he waa very easy going In bis methods and under him the chiefs of the bureaus were not placed under very much reatralnt. It waa a com' mon saying when Long waa at the bead of the Navy department that the bureau chlefa Jssued orders and afterward con sulted' the. secretary. Mr. Moody has let It be understood that no orders are to be Issued until after be baa been consulted, except In routine mattera over which the secretary Is not supposed to exercise supervision. One of the reforms Secretary Moody has adopted and which be will put Into opera tion at once la certain to Interfere with the programs of certain ofllcera who have been reveling In ahore duty for years and who have also made their plana with the Idea that they will retain thejlr present assignments for aome years to come. The secretary baa learned that many of the officers on shore duty are superfluous and be has written a letter to the ' chiefs of the divisions at the Navy department In quiring why certain officers now on duty In the different divisions could not be re lieved from their present duties and as signed to duty on shipboard. For many years there baa been an urgent demand from the Navy department for legislation by congress that would Increase the num ber of naval ofllcera. When thla demand waa pressed members of the bouse,, who 'are conversant with the conduct of affairs at the Navy department, have taken the trouble to point out that there are on duty svt ths department officers who have not taken their regular turn at sea duty and they have Insisted that before granting ad ditional officers there should be some re organization of the various bureaus at the department. Secretary Moody also. It would seem, takes the position that there la a sufficient number of ofllcera In the service and that the trouble Is that they are not assigned to duty In the proper man ner. The impression In the bouse and aenate is that the great majority of naval officers have soft snapa In the way of shore billets and the result of Mr. Moody's in quiries Is expected to confirm this impression- Reorganising- Bareaas. Secretary Moody haa also decided to re organize the . various bureaua of the de partment and in thla direction he baa pro posed several changes which have provoked aharp criticisms from the beada of the bureaua. The aecretary of the navy la au thorized by law to distribute the duties of the Navy department as he may see tit and It la under this general direction that Mr. Moody will act Tbe details of this plsn contemplate the assignments of all officers except those of flag rank by the chief of the Bureau of Navigation, who Is to be the head of the division of personnel. All other bureaus. Including the bureaus of supplies, accounts and medicine and sur gery, are to be placed under the assistant secretary of the navy, but in case be should need advice be can receive assistance from a line officer detailed for that purpose. The staff bureaus' vigorously object to this ar rangement for the reason, it is urged, that the line will thus be enabled to extend its authority. Having the detail of all of ficers, save those of flag rank in its power, the bureau of personnel can, it la said. not only assign line but staff officers to duty at auch points aa it may see fit, to embarraa the heads of the departments In the performance of their 'work. It is also pointed out by those who object to the sec retary's plan that should the office of as sistant secretary become vacant the line officer detailed in that office would act in place of the assistant secretary and thua both the division of material as well as the division of personnel would be under the direction of line officers. It is aald that Mr. Moody will make many changes In the Navy department. Iee'a Opinion Haa Weight. It Is the general opinion among the few congressmen still in Washington that had General Lee's Interview on the Cuban sit uation been given to the publlo before the adjournment of congress it might have bad a different effect on the present statue of reciprocity with the new republic. There Is no doubt that General Lee is as fa miliar with the conditions of Cuba and the Cubans as anyone in this country. At least, he Is so supported In this regard by public sentiment, and enjoys the con fidence of the men of both parties, many of whom regret that be did not give bis rlewa earlier in the session. Speaking of the disasters that appear to menace the future of Cuba, Representative Cousins of Iowa said the other day: "I cannot aee any assured happiness for the Cuban people, and I mean, of courae, commercial prosperity when I say this, except through annexation. I have always believed that to be the only solution of one of the most vexatious problems that has ever confronted the people of the United . States, to whom Cuba looks as a child, toward its parents. Tbe men who represent the business Interests of the Island have always favored annexation, and today they desire It more than ever. 1 think, It rather premature when Cuba Is spoken of as a possible atate in our union. That ia ao remote it is waate of time to consider it. The bone and alnew of the Island, the thinking men there? who have the best interests of their country at stake, desire such a political alliance with the United States, for without it they can not occupy- a position which gives them standing commercially with other coun tries. I fear the first; outbreak will come from the laboring classes, and auch a hap pening would be almost dlsaatrous. Let Cuba come In as a territory before In ternal strife brings back to It once more the devastation and misery It suffered through Spanish tyranny." The present prominence of this question Is worrying to a considerable extent the beet augar people, who now realize that in defeating Cuban reciprocity they manufac tured a boomerang which will atrlke them an annexation blow. Reducing Force la Pbllllplnea. Secretary Moody today cabled to Rear Admiral Wildes, the ranking admiral In Philippine waters, instructing him to place the gunboats Arayat, Baaco, Calamianee, Marlvelea, Panay and Paragua out of com mission. These vessels are small gun boata which bave been engaged In patrol duty In the lower islands of the archi pelago. Thla action la part of the movement re cently decided upon to reduce the active naval force on the Asiatic station. It will furnish a considerable number of offi cers and ment to reinforce the present quota en the station, which la not at all commensurate with the duties to be per formed. Orders also bave been sent for ward for the- withdrawal of tbe aupply ahlp Arethusa, now atCavite, from the station. It . will corns to the New Tork navy yard. . It is probable that the gun boat Princeton also will be withdrawn from the Aalatio station in a short time. WELCOME KITCHENER HOME British Rulers and Kuiea Give. Gsniral a Generous Esoeption. RECEIVES HIS HONORS IN MODEST MANNER Tendered a Reception em Landing; at Southampton and Metropolis of Kingdom Goes Wild Over Him. (Continued from First Page.) Lots of free attractions at Manawa. when Kitchener arrived looked more like a receptton room of the War office or India office than a railroad station. It waa cov ered with red carpeta and decorated with a profusion of flowers and palma. while rows of decorated stands, crowded with spec tators, had been erected at all polnta from which a view of the general could be had. The platform Itself waa crowded with dis tinguished personages, Including Indian princes in respendent costume, generals and other officers In full uniform, and many women In beautiful summer dresses. The princess of Wales, the duke of Con naught, the duke of Cambridge, Lord Rob erta, tbe commander-in-chief; Lord Lans downs, the foreign aecretary; Mr. Brod erlck, the war aecretary; the duchess of Somerset, Lady Roberts, Lady French, Major General Sir Francis R. Wlngate, who suc ceeded Kitchener aa sirdar of the Egyptian army and governor general of the Soudan, and Major General Slatln Pasha, British inspector general of the Soudan, were among those who assembled to greet the general. Tremendoaa Cheer , Greets General. When Kitchener's train arrived, punctual to the minute, a tremendous cheer greeted the lateat hero as he emerged from his car and ahook handa with the prince of Wales. He atood head and shoulders above nearly every one on the platform, and bla work manlike khaki uniform, with the large, brown sun helmet, made familiar with bis pictures, waa In striking contrast to the glittering uniforms and rowa of medals and orders worn by most of those in wait ing. The reception lasted ten or fifteen mtnutes, when the prince of Wales and other membera of the royal family drove off. After an Interval Lord Kitchener and Generala French and Ian Hamilton took aeats in one of the royal carriages and followed by the brilliant headquarters staff, headed by Lord Roberta, and an es cort, left the station, and amldat loud cheers from those inside, which grew Into a perfect roar as Kitchener and his com panions came In sight of ths great gather ing outside. Cats Hla Speeches Short. In spite of his hatred of "palaver" the popular general waa obliged to submit to tbe presentation of welcoming ad dresses at Paddlngton and other points on his way to St. James palace, but hla replies were cut as short aa politeness permitted, and he showed evident signs of relief when the procession waa resumed. The route throughout waa decorated with Venetian masts, banners, flags and atreamers, with mottoes of welcome. The bouse fronts were draped and troops lined most of the way, colonials and Indian soldiers being utilised, aa well aa the local regiments. Every vantage point, even to the house tops, was occupied by sightseers, and solid masses of people gathered In all the open spots, such as Hyde Park corner and In tbe space in front of Buckingham palace, while the sidewalks, standa, windows and roofa were packed with gaily " dreaaed spectators who waved flags, hats and handkerchiefs and ahouted with a warmth that ahowed their hearts were In the welcome. At Victoria Gate . the mayor of West minster presented an address to the na tional hero, expressing high admiration of his tenacioua genlua, indomitable energy and devotion to duty, and Kitchener, with the brevity habitual to bim, uttered ten words of thanka and drove off. . Antipathy to Society People. . The vast stands on Constitution Hill were crowded with people belonging to the highest classes of society and Kitchener's well known antipathy to "drawing room folk" Immediately became apparent. Whereas, he had been all smiles ta th man-In-the-street, bis features here be came Immobile and he contented hlmaetf with a cold, military salute until be again reached the open ground In front of Buck ingham palace, where toe popular ovation waa repeated. .Shortly before tbe arrival of the pro cession at Buckingham palace Queen Al exandra and the prlnoeaaes appeared on a balcony and remained there until the vic tor of South Africa bad paased In hi. triumphal journey to 8t. James palace, which be entered amidst a final hurricane of cheers. Kitchener and the gonerals who accom panied bim were entertained at . luncheon In the great banqueting hall, where covera wre laid for fifty persona. The prince of Walea occupied the central seat, with Kitchener on bis right - and with Lord Roberta opposite. Among the guests were the premier. Lord Salisbury; Lord Lans downe, Mr. Broderlck and Lord ' Raglan, the under secretary for war.

The luncheon occupied an hour and a half. The prince of Wales toasted King Edward and then proposed a tosst to Kitchener. The prince expressed ths pleasure which It gave htm to extend to the general In behalf of the king tbe heartiest congratulations on the success ful manner in which he had terminated tbe long and arduous campslgn. Hla royal hlghneaa also expressed confidence that the sovereign's sentiments In this mstter were shared by the empire, which had watched with admiration tbe general's tenacity, skill snd patience, qualities In which his army bad followed bla example. Klchener made a brief reply, which ex hausted the toast list and soon after 3 o'clock the general proceeded to Buck ingham palace to see the king and queen. Ie Talk of London. Kren the renewed anticipation caused by the announcement that the coronation of King Edward will occur In August falls to detract from the nation's absorbing In terest In its Idol, and Its puzzle. Columns of alleged anecdotes concerning the general and voluminous descriptions or nis me. sna esneclallr of his recent campaign in South Africa, monopolize the newspapers. The coronation arches, which were previously being torn, are now redecorated In bis honor.' A' striking description of the new vis- eount, doubtless founded os Intimate rela tions with the general, appears In the Lon don Times today. It concludes a three- column review by Us special war corre spondent, of Kitchener's work ( In South Africa. 'For some reason," said tbe correspond ent, "after the Soudan campaign Kitchener waa represented as a cold, calculating ma chine, bard and unbending, in bis dealings with other men, a truly exaggerated por trait. He possesses, Indeed, a character which la firm, determined and steadfast. When he faces a difficult problem, all con siderations foreign to solving that problem are brushed aside, but, those . who bave been In contact with bim can' never say he Is Inhuman or unreasonable. . Doubtless hs has faults. Perhaps the greatest of these is his desire to saddle himself with the responsibility for everything under bis control and to be intimately called with more detail than a human mind can con veniently embrace. That he is feared by his subordinates Is true; but he certainly is loved by those who have worked sue cescfully for him. Though be may bave made marks In Judging the quality of some men. In the main it will be found that his mistakes are tew, and while be may not possess the magnetic Influence of aome leaders in winning tbe hearts of bis subor dlnates, he will always preserve his as cendancy, both as a soldier and as a states msn." The Epectator voices publlo opinion In characterizing Kitchener aa a "great im perlal asset." Before long the man who ended the South African war is likely to appear In a new role, and one lees pleasant to the popular taste. The royal commission to investigate the conduct of the war Is being formed and Lord Kitchener will doubtless be ex amined at length. An air of nervousness already pervades the war office regarding the opinions which the general may then express. That be will condone all tbe mismanagements which has been ao pal pably displayed ia hardly In keeping with bis previous reputation. THEATRICAL SEASON ENDS Recent Heat Win In London Affects Receipts and Several Pieces Jar Withdrawn. LONDON, July 12. The theatrical season has practically come to an end. The re cent beat wave seriously affected tbe re ceipts. Several pieces which It was In tended to run right' on will be withdrawn. Beerbohm Tree's "The Merry Wives of Windsor" Is one of the exceptions and It will be continued until the coronation, with Ellen Terry and Mrs. Kendall In the east. Tbe appearance this week of the three Coquellns on . one London stage reaped a success which the novelty of the Idea merited. It is confined almost entirely to Mollece's plays which were enthusiastically received. The French plays at the Oar rick end July 28. Next week Mine. Oarnler, supported by the entire company Theatres Deatres of Paria will succeed the Coquellns at the Qarrlck.
