NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.

Secretary of War Root has sent the Chief, Executives of the State* a memorandum calling upon them lor ihfou* nation regarding the various Slate militia wants as to equipment under ic new Militia law. The letter reads: Under the act making appropriation (or the support of the army, approved March 3. 1903, the Secretary of War is authorized to expend $3,000,000 in procuring articles to fully arm. equip d supply the organized militia. This in addition to the issue of standard nriee magazine arms and accoutre jots authorized by the Militia Act of January 31. loot As the sum appropriated will proDabi/ not fully aceomplish thx oljrct. xml further appropru lions vTHl be necessary from time to time, the Secretary wishes to expend this $3.000.000 already appropriated in such a way at to put the department in possession of the articles which will contribute most effectively to the immediate preparation of the militia for active operation* and render them most effective if they shall be unexpectedly called into the service of the United States. So far as it is consistent with the accotnolisbment of this nnrrviv- hr desjret to meet the wishes of the Governors of the several States in the preparation of material, for which they may make requisitions in the proportion which the number of organized militia in each State bears to the whole number in all the States. As the preparation of artillery material requires considerable time, the Secretary, immediately after the passage of the act, authorized the Chief of Ordnance to apply $350,000 to the preparation for militia use of field pieces and carriages of the new model with which the regular army it now to be cquioned. As a guide to the further expenditure of the sum appropriated, the Secretary would be glad to have from you all the information which you can conveniently give as to the articles which yon deem most necessary for she full armament and equipment of your national guard toervasa ta fcal Wealth. "Hat the present great boom left the country richer in real wealth?” was the question propounded to William B. Ridgrly, Comptroller of the Currency. "If yon mean by the great boom the boom in the stock market.'' said Comptroller Ridgely. "I doubt if it has bad any effect on the real wealth of the country. It has doubtless greatly affected the distribution of wealth, but it lias not changed the aggregate amount. If you mean the real boom, which wat the cause of the stock boom, and not its result, the figures show what has been added to -the wealth of the country. In 1893 the local coin and othrT money in the United States was $I7J03XXUXXL In >898 this had increased to $2,071000000. In July. 1905. the money in toe country had increased to wmv “1 turn to the figures of the cash 1 hand as reported by the various banks. In 1893 for the United States it was $586.000.000; in 1897 it had grown to $628,000,000 In 1903 it has reached the enormous sum of $83*3.000.000. an icrease in 10 year* ol $253,000,000. "The most astonishing figures have to do with the value of farm products. In 1890 these products were worth $3.460.000.000. the production of the year 1900 $4.7392500.000. an increase of $2,379,000000 Undoubtedly the farmer has continued to expand in production and p. osperity.'*
