Dewey Sends Her to China in Place
of the Baltimore.

Admiral Dewey cabled the Navy De-
partment this morning that he sent the
Boston and Petrol off to Tientsin yester-
day. He does not state why the Balti-
more was not sent according to orders
and it is supposed the Boston was SUBJ
stituted because she could get up closer
to the city.
Another theory is that the substitution
is due to the condition of the Baltimore,
whose bottom is thought TO be foul.

There was something of a rally this
morning, but ii was not a matter of any
importance or significance as far as could
be judged by the first two hours trading.
Opinion varies. On the one hand there
are many who believe that the shorts are
covering, and that a temporary rally of
point or two is all that can be expected.
Others say that there is steady buying and
that this indicates better than the tenn
porary upward turn. On the whole, the
Street is not very hopeful of the bull
turn until the manipulation in Tobacco
and Sugar has lost its attractiveness to
the cliQues. This may come in a few
days, or Immediately, or not at all.

alleged inefiiciency and laundering charged

General Lee is by himself, as it were? Has
he none Of those inefficient men with whom
it is alleged the secretary of war has
filled the staff branches of the service?
There is nothing of the kind. General Lee
is under the same general supervision of
the War Department as are the command
ers of other camps. He has had the same
equipment, the same supplies, and doubt
less about the same average of officers in
charge of the medical and quartermaster's
departments. The difference appears to be
that General Lee has understood the i'm
portance of keeping a good camp and has
looked after it. If the location had been
bad one he would have found another. If
the hospitals had been poorly equipped and
badly managed he would have known it
and would have promptly applied the RENE
dies.
This one instance proves that the COM
manders are responsible for much of the
evils of unhealthy camps and defective hos
pital service.

good order and an untrammeled exercise
of the franchise law marked the entire
election. The national assembly meets on
the 18th inst. to declare the result and the
inauguration takes place on the 22d. The
new President Is fOrty-two years of age, a
statesman of broad. comprehensive Views,
possessed OF rare ability and attachments
and was for many years minister of justice
in the Cabinet Of his predecessor. He as
sumed the executive functions of the gov

Attention has been called to the remark
able success of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee in keep
ing his camp from disease. His latest re-
port shows that 81 per cent. of the men Of
that large camp are fit for duty. The camp
has been located at Jacksonville for months.
The climate is semi-tropical, and generally
the conditions about Jacksonville would be
regarded as much more unfavorable than
those in Virginia near Washington or Chick
amauga. Nevertheless. 81 per cent. of Gen.
Lees men are fit for duty,while the most
favorably located camps of the well-trained
armies of Europe have Sc per cent. of their

A correspondent in one of the Indiana
organizations expresses the opinion that no
one seems to have proited by the mishaps
of their commands except few commits
sares. Such an opinion is in accord with
a very ancient assumption that there is an
opportunity for the distributors of army
supplies to get rich by selling them. When
enc considers the processes by which ra-
tons. for instance. are obtained and dis
tributed by commissaries he must see that
there is little opportunity for any stealing
unless there should be a quite extensive
conspiracy. A regiment makes a requisition
for given number of rations based upon
the number of men reported TO be present.
This requisition goes to the brigade com
missary, and usually from the brigade to
the division commissary and perhaps to
others above him. Finally it reaches an Of
ficer who has charge of the supplies, from
whom the division and brigade commissarics
get just the rations they have asked for.
1t is possible for three or more cOmmissaries
to combine to rob the regiments. but it
is not probable. The officer at the head of
the subsistence department must give re-
ceipts for all the ratiOns he receives He
must show by the receipts of those VINO
draw radons from his supply that he is
sues all that he receives. IL ne has, for
instance, a thousand barrels of pork, he
must show by receipts that he has issued
it to those below him. If he cannot show
such receipts he will be in trouble with the
accounting officers at once. The commits
sary's opportunities for stealing are not so
