AdmIyaIssyhe will henceforth draw

The new Admiral will have other
high privileges, He will appoint his

own cook, steward and two cabin boys

arate range will be provided for his
meals, and Uncle Sam will provide Ad-
miral Dewey with dozen of every
thing, save crockery.
Had he been full Admiral when
the German Admiral Diederichs was
making himself so annoying at Manila
Dewey could have precipitated war be-
tween us and Germany without con-
sulting anybody at Washington.
The duties of the commanding Ad-
miral of the American Navy have new
er been defined by legislative enact
ment. Porter, atter he was made a
full Admiral, never did anything in
particular.
Still Dewey Is subject ITO the orders
of the Secretary of the Navy, who, If
he disliked him, could do much to an
