REVOCATION OF DETAIL.

Omcer Wilson's Release From Ser
vice With Humane Society.
The chief Of police has recommended that
Officer Samuel Wilson, who has been on
duty in connection with the Humane So
ciety for several years, be released from
such detail. The recommendation has re-
ceived the approval Of Commissioner
Wight, who has immediate charge of the
police department, and it will in turn prob
ably be Endorsed by the board Of Commits
sicners.
1t is und erstood that officer Wilson's
course in connection with the placing of
children in charitable institutions has not
received the approval Of the board of chill
dren's guardians and 1t is said Mai Moore
made the recommendation in order to avoid
any further conflict or clash in the matter.
Officer Wilson, 1t is stated, has been in the
habit Of placing children taken from ques-
tionable associations in charitable institu-
lions without first having recourse to the
courts. The board of children's guardians,
1t Is explained, insisted that in such cases
the children should have first bean carried
into court, and their commitment legally
secured.
1t is on this matter of procedure the al
legged differences and conflicts occurr ID.
indispensable to the Humane Society, and
as his services are greatly needed for du-
ties wholly in connection with the police
force, Mr. Wight argued with the chief of
police that happy solution of the matter
could be made by revoking his detail for
duty in connection with the Humane So
ciety.

MUST COMPLETE EQUIPMENT.
Garbage ScOws and Wharves to Con-
form to Requirements.

form to Requirements.
The District Commissioners have directed
Mr.. ]. N. Warffeld, the contractor for the
collection and disposal of garbage, tc
carry into effect the plan recently adopted
by them for the equipment of the con-
tractors scows and wharves. The plan, as
was stated in The Star at the time, was
suggested by Dr. Woodward, the health
officer, and under ii the wharf must be so
arranged that the garbage carts can be
flushed over an impervious surface, water
connections being, of course, essential
DR.. Woodward explains in his pan that
the scows should not exceed in capacity
seventy-five tons. Their sides should be
finding its way overheard, and so con-
structed that the escape of water into the
river will occur only through three holes
en- either side. Substantial covers should
be provided. All parts of the scow which
come in contact with the garbage should
be tarred or covered with some other
waterproof material. All other parts of
the scow should be well painted with some
not too conspicuous color.
If the wharves be not so arranged as
to permit scows to lie partly under them,
SO that the garbage will fall directly into
the receptacle intended for it, chutes
should be provided so as to accomplish
this cid. 1t should be distinctly under
stood at the outset, the health officer
states. that garbage is to be delivered at
both the G street and South Capitol street
wharves during the entire year, except
VIXEN 1t is being cremated approximately
equal amounts being taken 10 each wharf
and the area of collection for each being
the territory lying adjacent to 1t.

The Volunteer Army Bill.
The Senate committee on military affairs
today authorized a favorable report on the
volunteer army bill with general amend
ments.
The most important amendment suggest
ed by the Senate military committee to the
volunteer army bill is one reducing the
time of enlistment of members of the Ma
tional Guard, where the guard of each state
enlists as a body, from thrse years to one.
This change was made because of the be-
lief that the National Guard of many states
would go as body for year, but not for
three years, and this is considered an inn
portant advantage.
Gel. Henry c. Cook. who commanded the
9Th Infantry at Fort Mcpherson. Ga, has
been placed on the retired list on account of
disabilities incident to the service. He has
been succeeded in command of the 9Th Resi-
ment by Lieut.. Col. H. D. Freeman Of that
homa.

OPPOSED TO PRIvATEERING.
Rules to Which the Government Will
Adhere.

An outline of the policy to be followed by
this government in the treatment of neu-
trails and the matter of privateering is con-
tanned in the following statement:
in the event of hostilities between the
United States and Spain. it will be the pol
icy of this government not to resort to
privateering. The government will adhere
to the following rules:
First, neutral flag covers enemy's goods.
with the exception of contraband of war;;
second, neutral goods not contraband OF
war are not liable to confiscation under
eEemy's flag; third, blockades in order to
be binding must be effective
This doctrine is laid down to meet the
various inquiries received by the diplo-
matte repre- sentatives of the United States
from foreign governments as to the attitude
assumed by the United States. 1t is sub
stantially in line with the rules praCticed
in the recent ChineSe-Japanese war and
places the United States in most adj
vanced position so far the protection Of
individual property and neutral goods at
sea is concerned. By it Spanish goods are
made free from seizure on the seas III the
bottoms of a neutral power. This decision
on the part of our government will doubt
less be welcomed in Europe.
