More Artillery Men Needed Across Department
Maj. Gen. Brooke reports to the War Department that coast artillery forces are gravely inadequate. Maj. Story notes that 15 910 men are needed per relief, but only 4 083 heavy battery personnel exist, with many stationed away from proper artillery posts. He also condemns the lack of officers for modern armament fire control and staff administration. A monument to Cardinal Lavigerie was dedicated at Ditken near the Sahara, depicting him gazing toward the desert with a pastoral cross.

California Big Trees Fearlessly Logged Threaten National Parks
A Senate committee probes the giant California sequoias amid rapid private logging. Ten groves along the Sierra and coast face destruction as 40 sawmills cut the trees for lumber, with only Mariposa grove protected and public parks like Sequoia and General Grant shrinking due to private claims. The trees, among the oldest and largest, may require government ownership to survive.
