Army and Navy Bands.

WASHINGTON, June Z. Secretary
Whitney, in his official order relative to
the employment of the naval band OF
the United States steamer New Hdmp-
shire, at the Newport theatre, and prac-
tically annulling their engagements,
finds no special law on the subject of
musicians taking employment outside
that covered by'their enlistment. The
custom permitting it he finds universal,
and the compensation provided by gov
eminent is based somewhat upon the
supposition that enlisted musicians will
supplement their government pay from
private employment, but in these cases
there is a universal rule that the
government shall not enter into
competition with private individuals I'M
fairly. This has become the subject of
general army order to the effect that
the Secretary of War has discouraged
the employment of regimental bands
for purposes not connected with their
duties in the militry service, and holds
that they should not be brought into
competition with local bands. In the
naval service the same rule should APP
ply at least to the extent of preventing
unfair competition between the bands
supported by government and private
individuals engaged in the business.
