No Guns For Big Army Sperry's Fleet In Red Sea
President Roosevelt ordered a quiet War Department inquiry revealing a dangerous lack of modern rifles and artillery for a potential army. Only about 350,000 modern Springfield and Krag rifles exist nationwide, with enough ammunition for 260,000 to arm a 250,000 man force, while production times delay full readiness for distant mainland defense.

Head of Two Bureaus Directs Construction Also Consolidation
Rear Admiral W Capps, chief constructor, was named acting chief of the bureau of steam engineering by the President. The move is viewed as a practical consolidation of the bureaus of construction and steam engineering, pending Congress action. Capps will head both, with aims to simplify work and improve efficiency, though some fear potential friction from a mixed staff of officers. Secretary Newberry believes no major issues will arise and the change will benefit the navy.
