give full instructions for the management
of the fleet to his successor The United

miral Dewey will make the voyage home,

to be on ship board by sundoWn. The crew
have had still less leave, and show the eff

RETIRED OFFICERS PAY
Controller of the Treasury Delivers an
Opinion as to It
An Important Statement of the Effect
of the Navy Personnel
Act.

The Secretary Of the Navy has received
an opinion from the controller of the treas
Try in regard to the naval personnel act
the nay.
The controller says that in his opinion Of
fCers retired under section of the navy
personnel act will be entitled to three
fourths sea pay of the next higher grade,
including the grade of commodore. as fixed
by law at the time of retirement, which
must be subsequent to June 30, 1899. and
that for the purpose of section the pay
of commodore, after June 80, 1899, will be
the pay of brigadier general of the army,
the officer corresponding in rank to a COM
mOdore in the navy.
He says he is also of opinion that an Of
ficer retiring under section or cannot
also have the benefit of section II. which
authorizes the retirement of officers with
Creditable records, who have served in the
civil war, with the rank and pay of the
next higher grade. The controller holds
that inasmd dch as section 13 of the person
mel act provides for army pay to all COM
miSSioned officers Of the line and medical
and pay corps, officers retired on army pay
under the personnel act are entitled to
longevity pay retired officers in the same
manner retired officers of the army
This view" the controller says, lis con-
sistent with the prOvisO in said section
that nothing in the act should operate to
increase or reduce the pay of any officer
now on the retired list of the navy. The
act of August >, 1882, so far AZ it relates to
pay. is virtually superseded by the new
act.

Colonel Bingham, the officer in charge of
public buildings and grounds, in a report
to the chief of engineers says that the
sum of s16o.S6 has been expended in repair

OH Easter Monday, April 3.
Colonel Bingham says that in accordance
with the usual custom the grounds were
thrown open to the children on that ocea-
sion, and. a measure of precaution, tenn
porary wire fencing was placed around all
the flower BEDS small trees and shrubs to
protect them from injury from the large
crowds in attendance.
Because of this action but little damage
was done to the Enclosures The lawn sur
faces were considerably damaged however
and the ground badly Uttered. Colonel
Bingham says that it cost $160S6 to erect
and remove the wire fencing, to clean up
the grounds and resod or seed the bare
places on the lawns where the grass was
destroyed by the tramping of the crowds
Most or the expense was on account of
labor.

MIR. BAILEY'S "BREAK."
Different Opinions to the Effect of
His Anti-ExpansiOn Speech.

Representative Bailey's recent speech
against expansion, which was delivered
upon the occasion of the celebration of San
Jacinto day at Houston. Tex, has aroused
renewal of discussion in southern news
papers of Mr.. Baileys alleged representa-
tion of the prevailing southern sentiment
toward expansion
A Memphis newspaper the Commercial
Appeal in an editorial affirmed that Mr.
Bailey was not in accord with his audience
when he expressed anti-expansion views
and intimated that his views did not rep
resent the Texas sentiment. The CONNER
cial-Appeal said:
He was listened to in sulen silence by
The audience, but his speech fell like d
blanket soaked In ice water. He is being
roundly criticised all over the state and
the way the old Texas spirit will rise up
against him when he stands for senator
will surprise If not dismay him. His break
is the break of the century,"
In contradiction of this allegation, the
Houston Post, on the scene of the ceebra-
ton and the speechmaking, impeaches the
correctness of the Commercial-Appears re-
port or what happened and denies the con-
ClusiOns drawn by the attitude of the Tex
ans TO Mr. Bailey. The Houston Post says:
when it is remembered that about 5000
people. who were in the auditorium. listen
ed intently to the matchless oratory of Mr.
Bailey for two hours and peatedly, al
most momentarily, cheered him to the echo
linered after the speech to see him and
shake his hand and made his address the
theme of admiring comment throughout the
whole city during the remainder of the day
and the day following, the absurdity. the
brazen fmpudence or the gross ignorance of
the foregoing excerpt can be appreciated.
And. by the way. a few more
breaks like that by Mr.. Railey in Texas
and he has only to intimate what he
wants"

ADMIRAL kAUTZ REPORTS.
The Details Anticipated by Recent
AssOcinted Press Dispatches.

The Secretary of the Navy has received
q long report from Admiral kautz, com
manding the Pacific station. in regard to
the progress of events In the Samoan ISL
ands since his arrival there on the Phila-
Celphia up to the time of the departure of
the last mail, about the middle of April.
1t contains an account of the uprising
among the natives in consequence of the
dispute over the kingship early in April, in
cluding a detailed report of the joint eff
forts of the British and United States au-
thorities for the suppression of the insur-
rection, which operation resulted in the
killing in ambuscade of Lieut. Langley,
Ensign Mcnahan and number of Amer
lean and British sailors.
Full details of these events have been
already published in The Star in its press
reports from Apia by way of Auckland, and
there Is nothing specially new or important
in the official report of Admiral kautz as
given out at the Navy Department late this
afternoon. The report has been carefully
censored, and everything having relation
to the international aspect of the case has
been eliminated. The report. in the MAN.
corroborates fully the press reports already
published and contains no further details

THE LAFAYETTE DOLLAR
Director Roberts Has Selected the Design
for Il.
$4,000 to he Coined and Sold mt n
Premium for the Monu-
ment Fund.

Mr.. Roberts. the director Of the mint. has
decided upon the design for the Lafayette
silver dollar. At its last session Congress
authorized $1,000 of these dollars, to be
coined in aid of the Lafayette Monument
Association. which proposes to erect a
monument to Lafayette in Paris In 1900.
The original desire of the association was
that the monument should be erected by
the school children Of the United States.
and that the cost should be s25OOOO or
$Doooo. On a certain day the school chill
dren Of the country made contributions,
but the total did not reach much over
S4o.GO. While they will yet contribute
more money, it was found that they would
sired.
Congress thereupon authorized the coin
age of these silver dollars to be sold al
Whatever premium can be obtained for
them This is expected to net a large sum
as it is believed the dollars will sell at a
minimum of s. apiece while the majority
Will bring more. If the dollars should av-
erage 81 or 50 each the total sum for the
monument would be secured.
The Design Chosen.
On one side of the dollar will be the heads
of Washington and Lafayette, and on the
other representation of the monument to
be erected in Paris. The proposal to have
the Lafayette prayer or some passage from
his addresses inscribed has been abandoned
and the dollar will have no words excep:
the customary United States of America 8"
ana something to indicate that it belongs
to a special issue.
Some difficulty has arisen over the date
Ihe monument commission desires to have
the coins turned over to them as soon as
possible. and also TO have them bear the
date 1900. which the act of Congress saws
they shall bear. 1t is against the practice
of the mint, however to anticipate dates
in this way, and there is question also
whether or not it is in violation of law
Mr. Roberts has not yet decided the mat
ter He said that the dollars will not be
coined before fall, and probably not until
early next year
Charles E. Barber the engraver at the
Philadelphia mint is the author of the de-
sign. and 1t Is regarded at the treasury as
an exceptionally successful one. The issue
is limited to $1,000 pieces
