Tlie.v marched, singing socialistic songs and shouting "Down with the priests!" to the l'lace Maubcrt, where red wreaths and a bouquet of roses were la IC1 at the foot of the statue of Etlcune I)olet. An imposing force of police and municipal guards preserved order. They- split the crowd into small sections and prevented collisions with the clericals, who were attending a meeting of protest in a hall in tile neighborhood. The first public realization of this fact was caused by the announcement that the army seven weeks ago confessed its Inability to participate in the joint naval maneuvers on Long Island souud on the scale proposed by the navy. The visit last -week of the disappearing gun testing board to the strongest fortifications on the Atlantic seaboard has developed further facts heretofore obscured In the"popular and patriotic impression that the const defenses were Impregnable. "Instances of the torture and slaughter of American soldiers are very numerous. Any one of my commumls knows Hint we were not unduly severe with the natives.

It Is weeks before mock hostilities will open in the zone of war between New Bedford, Mass., and Fisher's Island. The fact that General MacArthur, commanding the department of the east, with all his energies bent to that end, will be unable to prepare the fortifications to repel the strongest theoretical attack within the capability of the north Atlantic squadron Is evidence of the weakness of the defensive system. It means that with the fortifications of the eastern approach to New York in their present condition and with a month's warning almost superhuman efforts would lie required to prepare for the attack of a powerful hostile fleet.

Modern coast guns are extremely complicated. For tills reason coast artillerymen have much more to learn than field artillerymen or cavalrymen or infantrymen. In many places where the ordnance lias been Installed it has not been operated sufficiently to give a smoothness of action. This makes the work of the inexperienced artilleryman harder.
