ADMIRAL WATS0N'S
ACTION is APPROVED
Navy Department Issues an Order
Confirming the Removal OF
Commander TausSig.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-The incident
that occurred in the Philippines between
Rear Admiral John c. Watson, comman-
der in chief Of the Asiatic station, and
Commander F. D. Taussig, in command
of the Bennington, owing to a misunder-
standing as to the way in which certain
orders of the admiral were to be carried
out, as a result of which Commander
Taussig was relieved of his command and
ordered to return to the United States,
has been closed by the issuance by the
Navy Department of the following order:
Admiral Watson's order is held TO be
within the discretionary authority vested
In him by article 3o4, paragraph 3, of the
Navy Regulations, it being impracticable
to have a court of inquiry, and, owing TO
the present Importance of the Asiatic sta
ton, Indispensable that harmony should
be maintained in his command.
Commander Taussig is regarded, from
the time of his arrival in the United
States, as having been detached from
duty on a foreign station. He was or
dered home and placed on waiting orders
as in ordinary cases. He has now been
given appropriate shore duty in connec-
ton with the Lighthouse Bureau and,
when practicable, will have command of
another vessel, commensurate with his
rank, to serve elsewhere than on the As
iatiC station

A MODEL STORE BUILDING.
Goldberg, Bowen & Co. Have Taken
Possession of Their New
Quarters

The site Of the old Young Mems Christ
ian Association building has been taken
possession of by Goldberg, Bowen & Co.,
which has moved from its former loca-
ton across Sutter street 10 the building
the company fitted up for itself on the
old association property at 230 and 234 SUIT
ter street, which it recently purchased.
The building has been fitted up with a
view TO the special needs of the COM
panys business, and nothing has been
omitted that would add TO it's convent
ence The first floor is done in maple,
with plate glass counter tops and lighted
by large plate glass windows that take
up nearly the entire front of the store.
California marble is extensively used in
the interior fittings and the fixtures are
all done in artistic iron work. Just in
side the main doorway is the seal of the
house beautifully inlaid in the stone floor
The stock has been arranged in depart
ments. and the coarser goods have been
relegated to the basement. Each depart
ment has its own distinctive decoration,
and the arrangement is such that the
greatest amount of the stock can be put
on exhibition without encroaching on the
aisle space and crowding the patrons.
The building runs back to Berry street,
where the receiving and delivery wagons
take or leave their loads, leaving the
front of the store unobstructed by freight
or wagons along the sidewalk.
The basement has been fitted up in the
most convenient manner pOSSible ii is
large and airy and well lighted, and capa-
BILE of housing an immense stock.
Altogether the store is in every way
one of the most modern and best an
pointed store buildings in the city The
decorations throughout are most artistic,
and the effect of the care with which the
general plan of decoration has been car
ried out is evident. So far as an example
store is concerned, the new building is
in every way model.
