Secretary Tall today sent to congress drafts of several Im portant bills designed to Increase the ef ficiency, of the army.. Accompanying each bill was a letter of transmittal explaining It. The bills were Introduced today lV Rep resentative Hull, chairman of thei house committee on military affairs. One of these measures., provides for a svparntion of the field from the coast ar tillery, retaining the -corps- organisation of the latter. The coast artillery Is Increased by officers and men necessary for the tor pedo, defense. of the .harbors .. and an at tempt, Is made by Increase of pay to remedy the,, present Impopslbllity of retaining highly-trained ineq.vTty hill provides tor greater- flexibility In the companies of coast artillery.

It Is asserted by Senator Gamble and his friends tonight that the conference be tween the president, Senator Klttredge and himself today relative to federal patronage In South Dakota was wholly satisfactory to Senator Gamble. As to the division of patronage, on account of differences In the delegation, there Keemed to be no other course to pursue than to follow the ordi nary rule that prevails in other states, to allow the congressmen to decide postofflce matters and the general patronage coming to the state to be decided by the senator. From a source absolutely reliable It Is learned that all federa appointments out side of postnflicea will be held up by the president until there Is an agreement be tween the two senators. This means that Elliott will hold his position for an Indefi nite period. Wider and wider grows the breach be tween these two factions and It will not be settled until June, when the state conven tion will decide who shall succeed Senator Gamble, whether himself or.
