CAPT. MACARTHUR PROMOTED.
The Vacancy in the Adjutant- Generals
Department Filled.

The Secretary Of War to-day announced the
appointment by the President of Capt. Arthur
Macarthur, jr., Thirteenth infantry, to be assis-
tant Acknowledgement, with the rank of major
This ends the strife in the army for this, one of
the most-desirable staff appointments, which
had been in progress for long time, before the
retirement Of Gen. Drum. There were proba-
bly, sixty or seventy applications on file for the
vacant position, and almost as many more Off
GERS were just ready to speak. The appoint
ment will be all the more interesting to Wash
ingtonians because Capt. Macarthur is a son
Judge Macarthur, of this city. He was born
in Massachusetts, June Q, 1S45, and entered the
volunteer service as first lieutenant twenty
fourth Wisconsin infantry, August f. 1862, and
served during the war with distinction. He
was appointed second lieutenant in the seven
teenth regular infantry, February 49, 1866
and promoted same day to first lieutenant and
appointed captain July %, 1866.
Ma jor Macarthur's record during the war
was an exceptionally brilliant one. At Mis-
sionary Ridge, when the color bearer was dis
abled he seized the colors and carried the flag
in front of the regiment, cheering the men to
follow him up the ridge. AT the battle Of
Franklin he received two severe wounds In
command of his regiment he retook some
Union batteries at the very moment the enemy
were about to turn them upon the Union forces,
and captured 10 battle flags and 400 hundred
prisoners. This when he was nineteen years of
age

The Weather and the Cron,.

The weather-crop bulletin of the signal Off :,
says: The week ending june 20 has been cooler
than usual in all agricultural districts, except
Dakota, where the temperature has been above
the average for the week. There has been an
excess of rainfall during the week generally on
the Atlantic coast from and including New
York southwark to Florida, in the Ohio valley,
and in the southern portions of the cotton
region, extending from southern Georgia to
Texas. The rainfall along the south Atlantic
coast generally exceeded inches. The weather
has been favorable for all growing crops
throughout the central valleys and northwest.
except in Dakota, where drought has caused
some injury to wheat, oats and barley, but corn
is reported as fine and growing rapidly in this
state and generally throughout the corn-belt.
From Minnesota reports show that all crops
were improved, but more rain is needed in tie
Red River valley country. Reports from Ne
braska, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Kan
sas, Kentucky and Arkansas show that the con-
dition for the week were especially favorable
for corn, which made rapid growth. Harvest
ing is in progress as far north as the 4Gth
parallel in the central valleys. Threshing is in
progress in Tennessee, and the damage to
wheat from excessive rains has been over-esti-
mated

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.
The Mccarthy Alimony Case-A Part
nership Question Settled, &c.

Justices Cox and James sat in General Term
to-day and the latter delivered several opinions
of the court. The first was in the case of Ann
Mccarthy against Dennis Mccarthy, in which
several years ago decree of divorce was made
granting the wife alimony at the rate of $50
per month. The husband died in March, 1885,
the alimony being paid up to that time. The
widow now files petition for the payment of
the alimony which has accrued since. The
children of deceased claim that the decree for
alimony should not affect their property. The
court holds that the allowance of alimnony is
requiring the enforcement of the husbands
duty, and should be operative only during the
joint lives of the parties.
In the case of Kellogg against Cummings in
which the complainant claimed to be part
nershiw creditor of Cook 4 Co.. the court dis
missed the petition filed by defendant for the
dismissal of the bill
In the case Of De Geofrey against Riggs ct
al, the demurrer was sustained. This is an
amicable suit brought by the complainants to
establish heirship as to the estate Of their un-
Gle, L. Lawrason Riggs. The defendants de-
INJURED to the bill, raising the question that
they being natives of France and aliens they
could not inherit. The court discussed the
question at some length, and concludes that
the provisions Of the treaty of 1858 does not
apply to the District Of Columbia.

THE PRESIDENTS OFF-DAY.
But Few Callers at the White House on
the First Day Of the Fiscal Year.

Monday is the Presidents day off from office
seekers. This fact and the heavy rain kept
things very quiet at the White House to-day.
Secretary Blaine made business call early in
the day and again in the afternoon. The Pres
ident saw Secretary Rusk and Gen. Fairchild.
The rest of the day he spent hard at work. ex-
cept when he got chance to enjoy the COM
pany of his family
Two or three members Of Congress and half
a dozen other persons who called to see Secre-
tary Halford, hung about the lobby, the por-
tico, and the reception rooms longer than their
engagements warranted, deploring the INSULT
cheney of umbrellas and the absence of cabs
But within the private part of the house it was
more cheerful than it has been for several days.
The presence Of Mrs. Harrison and the grand
children was ample compensation for the alb
sence OF the usual throng of office-seekers.

Three Oarsmeu Drowned.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 1.-The st. Louis row.
ing club had intended yesterday morning to
christen a new boat which they have had built,
and had prepared an attractive program for the
occasion. The North End club had several
crews on the river to witness the proceedings.
and one of them, a four-oared crew, attempted
to land above some barges. The current car
ried them against the barges and their shell
broke in two, and the men were drawn under
the barges by the current. Three out of four
men were crowded, the fourth, A. G. Ire bus,
being rescued by Lucas Edell the champion
oarsman of st. Louis. The names of the
drowned men are Henry Broen, aged twenty
four; Herman Karnatz, aged twenty-six; Will
lam Karnatz, aged twenty-four. This sad
occurrence put an end to the festivities and
the christening was indefinitely postponed.
