Army Matters,

WASHINGTON, May Cit is reasonably
certain that the bill for the reorganization
of the signal corps will become law this
session. The commissioned force of the
corps at the present time consists of the
chief signal officer Gen. Greeley, and
thirteen second lieutenants. In addition
to the chief signal officer the pending bill
provides for one major, four captains,
mounted, and four first lieutenants,
mounted. These places are to be filled
by appointment from the army, including
the signal corps, and preference is to be
given to officers who have rendered long
and efficient service in the signal service.
1t also provides that any of the %
lieutenants now in the corps who may not
be appointed in the organized field corps,
shall he transferred to the line of the
army with their present. dates OF commits
sions. 1t is expected that the majorship
and the four captaincies will be filled by
the selection of officers from other branch
es of the service, who have been detailed
for duty in the signal service.
The names mentioned in connection
with the majorship are those of Captains
John Z. Storey and r. z. Strong, 4th
artillery, Capt. Robert Craig, of the quar-.
termaster department. Capt. Storey is
regarded as the most likely to be chosen.
The captaincies will probably be filled by
Capt. II. H. q. Dunwoody, 4th artillery /;
Capt. James Allen, 3rd cavalry; 1st Lieut..
G. E. Kilbourne, I'd artillery, and 1st
Lieut.. James A. Buchanan, l4th in

ancies will undoubtedly 20 to the I'd

@. s. Sub-Trsasurer.

WASHINGTON, May The term of Of
flee of the United States sub-treasurer at
Chicago, expired yesterday and conse-
quently the friends OF the many APP
picdnts for the position have been very
active for the past few days. All those
seeking the office are very hopeful, it is
supposed because the president up TO the
present has not intmated preference
for either one of them. The applicants
who reside in Chicago are confident that
one of their number will be selected, as
they argue the president having gone to
the southern part of Illinois to get a man
to fill the pension office he can not affront
the local organization by giving the SUBJ
treasurership to man who is not
known to the party workers in the city.
The matter will be disposed of at an
early day, as the president feels that no
matter whom he appoints he is bound to
make enemies for himself in the city in
which he was nominated.

GOOD NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.
New Mexicu's Prospects Growing More
Luminous Every Day.
Special to the New Mexican.

| Special to the New Mexican.
WASHINGTON, May THE delegates
are now making every minute count.
Time in which to accomplish their pur-
poses is getting short, and with this in
view they put in full time TO the best ad-
vantage.
Yesterday WAS q big day for them.
They called on Sec. Rusk, Land Com
missioner Croft, Secretary of the
Navy Tracy and Minister Romero,
OF Mexico. In each and every in
stance they were given a most hearty
reception, and were greeted with good
words by every one for New Mexico.
Secy. Rusk told good joke ON Rev.
Harwood. He said that this reverend
gentleman and friend of New Mexico had
remarked to an audience that he had
been looking for grasses grown in New
Mexico without the aid OF irrigation.
The secretary Of the navy wanted to
know something about statehood for New
Mexico and took kindly interest in tile
matter.
Gen. Croft says he is with the delegates
for anything they want. He had given
New Mexico matters no little attention
and felt that many radical changes could
be made for the better.
Minister Romero, of Mexico, gave the
delegates royal greeting. He expressed
himself in sympathy with their cause, and
suggested the drafting OF a resolution ask
ing congress to call for the correspondence
from the state department of his country
over the failure of the United States to
settle land grant titles.
Up to date the work is very satisfactory
and New Mexico's prospects are growing
more luminous every day.
