VISION OF ITS FALL.
ADMIRAL JOUETT ON NEW YORK’S
CHANCES IN A WAR.
He Claims More Floating Forts In the
Shape of Monitors Are Needed to De
fend the City—Warships Below the Ho
rizon Could Basily Shell the Town.
Admiral James E. Jouett, who was in
Louisville recently on a visit to rela
tives, said, in discussing the statement
that no warship can approach within a
dozen miles of New York until it had
destroyed the barriers in the bay and
sound:
“You can only see a ship eight miles
nut at sea, and therefore a man-of-war
12 miles away from the harbor and be
yond the vision of the gunners in the
forts could leisurely throw its shot and
shell into New York and be perfectly
safe itself. Give a half dozen good ves
sels with their high power guns accurate
charts, and they can so place their shells
that New York would be reduced in a
surprisingly short time. Forts are all
right when it comes to keeping the fleet
of the enemy out of the harbor, but to
prevent the ships from effectively bom
barding a city they must have.the assist
ance of our modern built monitors.
“Any large squadron blockading New
York city would be more powerful than
all her forts combined. It would be only
a question of time before the forts would
have to capitulate if the vessels should
concentrate their Are. But put three or
four monitors out in the shoal water
and let them poke their shot into the
ribs of the enemy, and before yon can
say ‘Jack Robinson’ they will steam
for the open sea as fast as their screws
can propel them. Not only that, but
should any of the opposing fleet become
disabled a monitor could bustlo up and
tow her in as a prize before the neces
sary repairs could be made.

stead of being the aggressors. We

we would have the enemy begging for
mercy in no time. Take the little Essex
that was under command of Porter dur
ing the war of 1812. Single handed
she drove the commerce of England off
the Pacific ocean and was only finally
captured in a neutral port. Forts are
necessary, but let us have more active
and moving forts, those that can ven
ture out to defend the coast and those
that can prey upon the commerce of the
aggressor.
“Let these little frigates go abroad,
let them burn, sink and destroy, and
then get away. Why, I wnuld run like
a dog after I had committed as much
depredation as possible and then saw a
bigger fellow than I bearing down upon
me. Let us have about ten more moni
tors, even though we have about that
number now. We also need about 20
more torpedo boats. These, together
with the speedy vessels that I have just
mentioned, would put us in good fight
ing trim.
“Warwith Spain? Well, it would be
foolhardy in the done to press us too
hard. Spain knows her navy is almost
on a par with ours, and as the fight
would all be on the sea and about the
vicinity of Cuba she would undoubtedly
give us trouble for a time, but only a
very short time. The Spaniards are an
ignorant people, the most densely igno
rant, I believe, of any of the civilized
nations. But they are haughty, and
should they see that their cause in Cuba
is lost they would fight the United
States at the expense of the freedom of
the island to save their honor.
“As to a war with England, that is
almost out of the question. England
couldn’t afford it. If our ports were
blockaded, there would be a bread riot
in the British Isles in little or no time.
They are dependent upon us for their
cereals. The United States, by the way,
I believe, is the only country that could
depend upon its own resources in case
of war.
"Spain says she would first proceed
to destroy our commerce. That is ridic
ulous. Almost all of the exports of
America are carried by foreign ships,
because the crews can be employed at
cheaper wages. This, however, is not to
our credit. More merchantmen that
could be turned into fighting frigates
should be flying the American flag. The
government should expend about |lO,-
000,000 in building such vessels or let
the big exporters build them and pay
for their reconstruction out of what they
would receive from the government for
carrying the mails. The United States
would really be embarrassed right now
in case of war with any great power be
cause of a lack of ships to convey the
soldiers. ” —New York Sun.

BIRCH BARK WASTEBASKET.
Hint For a Pretty and Novel Christmas
Gift.
a- ‘t .
Many people carry home from their
summer outing pieces of birch bark
which they have stripped from the glis
tening trees during long walks in the
country. Here is a pretty way to utilize
it:
A good sized piece is needed to make
a waste basket—although smaller ones
are pretty to hold grasses—one that has
been stripped unbroken from the tree.
Make a cylindrical foundation of very
heavy cardboard just the size of the
bark. Line it with a pretty colored
sateen. Cover the outside with the bark.
Out a circle of the cardboard to fit the
base of the basket. Cover one side with
sateen wadded with cotton, the other
with birch bark, and, placing the sateen
lining inside, overhand it with strong
linen thread to the part of the basket
already made. The ribbon which orna
ments the top is slipped between the
lining and the birch bark and sewed in
place with silk of the same color. It is
then left to . hang over the edge—one
long, one short alternately. The end of
each ribbon is folded to a point and is
tipped with a tiny silvered bell.
A russet red or any color suggestive
of autumn leaves or else a pale green or
light blue harmonizes well with the sil
ver gray of the birch.
