ARMY PROMOTIONS.
Col. Gibson, of the Third Artillery,
Placed on the Retired List.
Secretary Tracy Issues an Order to Naval
Officers Commanding Vessels About Cruis-
ing and the Consumption of Coal.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-Colonel Gibson,
commanding the Third artillery, was
placed on the retired list to-day on account
of age. His retirement will promote Lieu
tenant-Colonel Livingstone, of the Third
artillery, to be colonel; Major cambridge,
Third artillery, lieutenant colonel; Cap
tain Hamilton, Second artillery. major in
the Third artillery; First Lieutenant Gas.
arie, captain in the Second artillery, and
Second Lieutenant Ostheim, first lieuten-
ant in the Secand artillery.
Secretary Tracy to-day issued an order
to all naval officers in regard to the con-
sumption Of coal. The order directs all
officers commanding vessels to take re-
appointments in order to ascertain the
most economical speed for their ships.
They are directed to report the consump-
ton of coal per hour at varying rates of
speed, from five to eleven knots: kind and
quality Of coal used condition of vessels
bottom, and such remarks in reference
to the most economical rate of steaming
as experience may suggest Vessels with
sail power are directed when they have
sufficient wind to carry them four knots an
hour to use sail alone. In conclusion, the
order states 1t is expected vessels cruising
under steam will not exceed their most
economical rate, excepting in cases of emer-
gency when the nature of the service re-
quires high speed, and in such cases re-
port must be made to the department ex-
planning the necessity for the increased

FOR UTAH'S RIGHTS
MIR. Hyde Brings Up the Question
OF Statehood for Utah in
THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Goodwin Moves an Amendment Making the
Resolution Read "All the Territories"
When Qualified, Which Was Adopted.

DENVER, Colo, May 22.-lSpecial Tele-
gram to THE HERALD. Mr.. HYDE, of
Utah, is not one of those men who let a
chance Of carrying his point slip by. In
the Trans-Mississippi Congress today,
when the Trimble resolution came up, he
resumed his endeavors to have the congress
recommend statehood for Utah. Editor
Goodwin then moved that the resolution be
made general in its provision, and read that
all the territories be admitted as soon as
properly qualified. The latter was carried
and the resolution on Indian matters was
replaced by substitute to abolish reserva-
lions ana tribal relations; disarm the In
oians; give them land in severalty; make
them amendable to the laws of the state in
which they might be- and open the re-
mainder of the reservation lands to settle
ment.
The day was spent in discussing the res
olutions and the only changes of moment
were these mentioned above.
The hight session was spent in q discus
sion of silver. the question being as to
whether to favor the coinage of all silver
or simply the American product Many of
the delegates left for home this evening
believing the main work of the convention
done. Those who remain on used up a
great deal Of oratory and rhetoric on the
question. Atahout 2 o'clock the congress
ratified the majority report in favor of the
coinage of American silver only The
majority was very narrow, being by three
votes. The convention then adjourned and
will meet next year in Omaha
