has the right to consider there is any?
thing voluntary in the discharge of his
duty to the country as a soblier. This ?
duty is an obligation binding upon all
citizens who are mentally sound and
physically fit and are xvithin certain
bed age limits. A man has no
more right 'o talk of volunteering to
irge his duty to the nation as a
er than he has to talk of volun?
teering to obey any moral law or p.iv a
just indebtedness. It is a matter of
principle and not of volition.
"The experience in training men
which our officers are getting here w-ill I
in effect double their efficiency in the
line of ability to create new organiza
? Ions."
Following his talk General Wood left
for the artillery training school, at
Tobyhanna, Pcnn. He was visited this
morning by Arthur Woods, Police Com- ,
missioner of New York City. Mr
Woods was sssigned to Company D. In
getting into this body Mr. Woods was
very fortunate, for in the extended
order drill this afternoon Companv I)
received the tirst applau.-e that has
been given to any of the rookiea.
I'i.'iuestionahly that il th? "crack"'
company. Led by Captain R. M. Parker
of the regular army, the 150 men
marched doxvn to the parade ground
about 5 o'clock this afternoon. It xva?
the last company to enter the final
drill of the dav. And it was the last
company to leave the field. The sharp?
ness and uniformity with which every '
evolution was performed took observ- '
ers* glances from the other men and
centred them on the men of Company
I?. They held the field alone for ten i
minutes.
Horace Marsh, chairman of the Po- |
lice Commission of Plat'sburg. stood
with a friend watching the drill. The
friend, pointing to the men of Com- '?
pany D, said: "I am xvilling to admit
that the men up here have made great
pi ogress, but when you look at the
men over there you can see at a glance ;
how far he regulars are beyond the
rookies "
"Ye-." said Marsh smiling, "it is ap?
parent."
Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler, Regi? II.
Post, I.athrop Motley and Perry Bead
belong to that company.
Commissioner Woods, xsl,o is only
<i private, will have to salute the New
York policemen who rank him in camp.
For the first time since he has been
here John Purroy Mitchel, Mayor of
New York, devoted part of the day to
consideration of official business. When
rest periods gave him opportunity he:
dictated letters on municipal matters. '
For him, in other respects, the day was
ling-songy. He had his ninety minutes
of cavalry. At sub-calibre practice
shooting at targets with a rifle scaled
down he got forty-eight hits out of
fifty shots.
That Mr. Mitchel will return to New
York before September 5, when the in?
struction will be concluded, seems out
of the question. Police Commissioner
Woods also will stay to the finish, if
crime does not cut up in New York.
To-day four hundred out of about i
twelve hundred persons were inocu?
lated by Camp Surgeon Darby against
typhoid and smallpox.

750,000 of these have declared their

about 650,000 have been admitteil to
citizenship during that time.
8.r>.000 Aliens Denied Citizenship.
During the - ime time theie have
been upward of 86,000 foreigner, who
have bee,? rcfuaed admission to citi?
zenship. Over one-half of these have
; been denied because of mental and
moral unfitness
< The bureau has kept a close super?
vision over this pnase of its work, and
as early as 1907. through its activities,
the public min?i was directed to the
necessity for providing some means to
enable these unfortunate candidates
from the vast foreign populace not
only to accomplish the act of admis?
sion to citizenship, but to equip them
to carrv on 'he daily tight for
their livelihood, for it is among these
tha? the tigh? for existence is earned
on under the most adverse circum?
stances.
Wh,!? the above figures indicate a
larire number among the foreign ele?
ment of thi?. country coming forward
for citizenship, the number does not
appear relatively very large when it is
known that in 1010 there xvere nearly
14,000,000 foreigners in this countrv,
that of this number 0.000,000 were not
citizens, and tha? 'he foreign body has
been increased nearly 1,000,000 annu?
ally since then.
By far the larger portion of the for?
eign residents of this country have re?
tained their allegiance to the sov?
ereignty of their birth. Recently re?
ports in the public press have shown
that many of these are ready to re?
spond to the behest of these sovereign?
ties.

are the natural prey of the ???-signing
and scheming foreigners and nal
The latter compel them to pax tribute
in cash and blood for every service,
both real and imagined, and in the
gratification of their desires, however
unscrupulous or unnatural. ?
For years thi- condition has been
studied by the Bureau of Naturaliza?
tion in its application to the admin?
istration of the naturalization law I?
is safe to state that although 85,000
foreigners have been refused citizeg
ship because of mental and moral un
fttni . a' least that main have been
admitted to citizenship in spite of
the. deficiencies during the period of
Federal supervision. The courts have
been reluctant to refuse citizenship to
a candidate even though he is ignorant
of our institutions or of the privileges
conferred on him. Especially is this so
where there are no facil.ies offered bv
the cities and towns where the peti?
tioners live for overcoming these de?
fects.

Chicago, Aug. It. No bodies were
found on ?he Fastland to-day when po?
licemen went through the dripping
hulk, lifted from 'he river bottom by
wrecking tugs.
This announcement from Thoma?
Mahon, County Morgue keeper, who
I headed the searching party, fixes the
: death list at not more than ?*?52 per?
sons. In all 844 bodies have been re
! covered and eight others have been re?
ported miasing. There is some ques?
tion as to whether they were on the
excursion steamer.
Early in the .;?>, nearly three weeks
to the nour after tne vessel rolled
over on its side with its merry crowd
of Western Electric employes, the
grimy, battered huik was raised to an
angle of BO degrees. The hawsers
which had pulled it upright were cast
off from the wrecking tugs. The boat
? d, but not upright, for 'here were
tens of wa'erlogged coal in the bunk
ers, fallen to the port side.
Divers -'.ere irr.m ?lately put to work
shifting a part of the coal, and the
? , soon stood with only the xveight
of tons of river slime to list it. Dnp
ping mud piles clogrred 'he decks on
the side of the vessel on the river bot
?om. Through the dirt and mud were
seen the trace of reli7s of the joyful
| picnic crowd.
Lunch baskets, jewelrv. pennants -
one of them hearing; the inscription,
i "111 do anything once" clothing and
! hats were piled in confusion, brown
with mud.
Under the direction of Hinton Cla
baugh, Chief of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation, <it> Custodian
Creiger and Mr. Mahon, divers and
policemen were put to work washing
off the mud deposits with water
pumped from a wrecking tug. All the
property of the exeur?ioni?t? was
carefully separated and placed in bar?
rels to be taken to the City Hall.
Throughout the work of cleaning the
derelict no trace of a human body
was found.
A. A. Boxvtnen, the Wes'ern Electric
representative on the vessel, said that
ail of the company's employes had
been accounted for, and that there
were only eight other persons who
were reported missing. There is no
proof that these were on board the
vessel, but some bodies may be found
on the river bottom under the vessel.

In manv cases, he added, families
