THEY BOTH FAVOR PEACE
Cleveland and Harrison Give Their Views on
the Subject
In Answer to Christian EndeaH0r
S0cietS's Crusade Against war
in General.

BOSTON. April Among the commnni-
cations received by the United Society of
Christian Endeavor recently in connection
with its proposition for War Against
War and Peace by Arbitration" are two
from former United States Presidents,
Grover Cleveland and benjamin Harrison.
Ex-President Cleveland wrote: Ihe
members and friends of the Society OF
Christian Endeavor have never entered
upon an undertaking practical and 50
noble as the effort they are now making to
secure, an abandonment of war as a means
for the settlement of international differ
eUCes; and if there is any substanc" to the
claim that our institutions and the traits
that characterize us as d people tend to
national elevation and chrstianiza ion, it
is eminantly proper that our country snouid
be in the lead in any movement in the IN
terests of peace.
Ey-President Harrison's letter says: "f'or
myself and much more for the great body
of its citizenship. / express the desire OF
America for peace with the whole world
1t would have been vain to suggest the
RULING down of blockhouses or family dis
armament to the settlers on a hostile In
dian frontier They would have told you
rightly that the conditions were not ripe.
And so it may be- and is probably, true
that a fun application of Inc principle is
not at present possible, the devil still being

PAY OF ARMY OFFICERS
An Important Decision by the Controller of
the Treasury.
"TrOOps Are Operating Against the
Enemy" and EmoIuments
Correspond.

In response TO an inquiry of the paymas-
the Secretary of War, the controller of the
treasury has written a decision that will
be of much interest to officers serving with
volunteer troops The controller holds tha:
volunteer troops yet In the service are
within the meaning of section of the act
of April 26. 1898. operating against the en-
emy, 'and officers serving with such troops
who shall exercise, under assignment in or
ders issued by competent authority. a COM
-nand above that pertaining to his grade
are entitled to receive pay and allowances
of the grade appropriate to the command
so exercised, Notwithstanding such troops
may have been notified by the Secretary of
War that they would be mustered out
On the 9Th of February the Secretary OF
War issued the following for the guidance
of the paymaSter general: Since the dec
laration Of the truce signed Angus; l.. 1898
no troops are to be regarded as operating
against an enemy except those detached
from permanent posts and placed in camp
with a view of embarking for and those
serving a oyer-the-sea stations"
The controller holds that this is only an
order of the Secretary of War and cannot
affect the act of April 70, 1898, which has
been construed by the Attorney General of
the United States. and 50 held by the con-
tIoller, that troops are operating against
an enemy until peace is officially ratified. "
The accounts of officers who exercised
commands higher than their grades will
now be settled. They have been held up.
much to the annoyance of such officers.

Il believe England will yield to una

due to Lord Salisburyss absence. As a

Der of officers for the trial Of Lieut. Frank

The great scarcity of officers i'm the de-
partment of the gulf is caused partly by the
existence of two other special court-mar-

the regiments leaving for the Philippines
and Cuba carry full quotas of officers.
