The prospect of The acquisition Of st.
Nicholas Mole, Hayti. as a naval station,
finds much favor at the Navy Department,
as 1t is station specially adapted to the
purposes of the Unitei States. There is
dissatisfaction at The State Department be-
cause of the publicity given the fact that
negotiations are to ne reopene1 for the ac-
quirement of the mole. on the ground that
their success may be impaired thereby. In

his efforts to persuade Hyppolite to grant
the land to us have been prepa red, and Will
be taken with the new minister to Port au

sion to fortify and protect it at pleasure
To do this II will be necessary to practically
have the land ceded to the United States.
and there is where the main trouble corles
in Haytfs constitution. it Is said. prohibits
the cession Of any Of her territory to anorh-
er government. but T. is believed this diff
Guilty can be easily overcome IL the Hay
tians really are willing to sell the mole to

Ihe proposition To do Away With the
Ten Years Service Law.
Army officers generally express Rratffi-
cation at the prospects Of an early repeal
OF the ten years service law. According to
one OF their number the injurious effects
OF this law multiply from day to day, and
the desire to see 1t expunged from the stat
ute books grows more earnest Gen. Scho-
held. who opposed the passage of the act
when 1t was first considered in Congress.
Will urge Its repeal in his Forthcoming an
nuai report. Under its provisions a priva te
cannot re-enlist after having served a term
or ten years. He must take his dischar9e
ana go into some other pursuit However
weil qualified by special fitness for the mill
itary service. and regardless of his own de-
sires In the matter. the soldier must quit
his profession after ten years.
