millions of that company's six per

that 100000 will be expended dur

The Star says: There is a great deal of
interest aken by army officers in impend-
ing retirements and promotions in the
higher ranks of the service. Officers who
are eligible for retirement are striving to
prevent being shelved. and those who are
in line of promotion are bringing all the
influence they can bear in favor of their
advancement. Gen. Miles, to whom the
position of chief signal officer has been
open, has, it is learned, requested that his
name be withdrawn from all connection
with the position. He is now a candidate
for inspector general in place of Gen.
Marcy, to be retired. 1t is the desire of
the president to appoint Gen. Miles to
that place, and it looks as if he would get
it. There is only one obstacle in the way.
The act Of Dec. II, 1878, provides that the
senior inspector general shall have the
rank of brigadier general. Colonel
Sackett is the senior colonel in the inspect
OR generals department, and will be the
senior Inspector general as soon as Gen.
Marcy vacates the position. In accord
ance with this it would seem that Col.
Sackett should have promotion. Gen
Sherman, it is known, has taken this po-
sition. The question is one, however, to
be settled by the president, ana he Is known
to favor Gen. Miles. Gen. Hazen, who,
as the other prominent candidate for chief
signal officer: would, on Gen. Miles refusal
of the office. seem to have clear field.
He probably has, but it is stated that he
does not want the place SO much now as
he did, preferring his chances to be quar-
termaster general, Gen: Meigs' successor
when that officer shall be retired. If this
is the case, Gen. Abbott, now on duty at
Willets Point, New York harbor, and who
is the choice of the American association
for the advancement of science, takes the
leading place looking toward chief of the
signal corps.
