Observer Bure iu. 1117 G Street N.3V., Washington, Aug. 18.' A scheme Is under consideration by the Secretary of War to transfer the coast artillery to the Navy. Depart ment. At present the coast artillery belongs to the army and is vunder the supervision of the War Department and the army .general officers. The reason for considering the transfers that the coast artillery In time of war not, only -has to co-operate with the navy tn the defense of ports but It uses nival weapons, such as V jb marine and floating tines and torpe does; likewise the guhs are similar to those on battleships. The Secretary of War is only considering the matter and It is by no means certain that he will recommend the change to Con gress this year, but It Is 4 an Idea which has been growing both In the army and navy for some years. ' v: " In -Germany and France there'- Is what la called a , marine . artillery which.-means the coast fortifications. But in tne- United States army the coast artillery is manned entirely by army officers and men enlisted for the army, which army officers have, to undergo .a certain amount , of train ing very similar to that of navy offi cers and the tactics; and the science of war fetudied by the officers and men In the heavy artillery are entirely dif ferent ;f ram those of officers and men in interior forts and posts,, . . Congress at the last session passed a bill making separate organizations of tho field and coaat artillery. The field artillery of course remains a, part of the mobile army but the coa.Tt artillery is as much anchored to the coast Ifortificaflons that it defends as the forts themselves. y 1 ! It is thought that toy establishing closer relations between the navy And the , coast artillery irreater efflciencv una oeuer results might be obtained. The scheme Is regarded as practical by muny artillery officers, and the proposal to divide the coast artillery Into three departments, with a briga dier general t the head of eAtfh, all under the command of a major gen eral, which it I -believed Secretary Taft will Tecommend if army officers object to it on the ground that 1t would minimize theJmportance of the army; but this consideration, It ii thought ' would have little weight compared with the increased efflelenrv r-whlch would result from the proposed viuauge. i fETjF-DEITEXSE IA SIi3S' PLB1.
