time was occupied by Mr. Chiffon
Dem, Texas, Mr.. Lodge (Rep.,
Mass.), and Mr. Turley (Dem., TENN
While Mr.. Lodge confined himself to a
discussion of the proposed tax on cor
porations and bank deposits, strongly
urging that such taxes be not imposed,
Mr.. Chiffon and Mr.. Turley covered
pretty fully the general features of the
bill. Their speeches dealt comprehen-
Siyely with theories of taxation, and
were therefore in the very nature OF
things legal and technical dissertations
on the subject. No action Of any kind
was taken upon the bill.
A communication was received from
Secretary Of War Alger, together with
a draft of bill providing for gradual
increase in the number of officers and
corps of engineers. The bill provides
that the corps of engineers of the
army shall consist hereafter of one
chief of engineers, with rank of brig
adler general, seven colonies, fourteen
lieutenant colonies, twenty-eight ma
jors, thirty-five captains, thirty first
lieutenants, twelve second lieutenants,
and the battalion of engineers. All
promotions shall be made by seniority.
The communication and bill were re-
ferred to the military affairs commit
tee.
Senator Chandler introduced this
bill:
That during the war with Spain the
President be and he Is hereby author
lied, in his discretion, to place upon
the retired list any officer in the army
above the rank of lieutenant colonel,
and any officer in the navy above the
rank or relative rank Of commander;
and to fix in his discretion as the re-
tired pay OF any such Off1cer any rate
now provided by law for officers retired
for any Of the various causes for re-
tirements; and the President may fill
every vacancy happening through re-
tirement by promotion through selec-
ton, and not according to seniority.
The day in the House was devoted
chiefly to the consideration of District
Of Columbia legislation TWO bills of
minor Importance affecting the vol
unteer military we're passed.

viding for the payment Of volunteers
from their enrolment and authorizing
the Secretary of War to pay troops
