GEN. SKATERS RETIREMENT,
It VIII Not Affect His Rank IN the:
ARMY. S4s

Washington. Oct. IA The retire
ment on Monday next of General Shat
ter at San Francisco will not affect that
officers rank III the volunteer estab-.
lishment or cause any change in his
present command.
As the case stands General Shafter
is brigadier in the regular estab-
$lishment and a major general of volun-
teers He retires by law on Oct @16,
but the war department does not deem
it expedient to relieve him of his cons
mand at the Preside and to place in
charge there some other offiser whose
grasp OF the many details connected
with the return of the volunteers from
the, new. regiments would be less COM
piete than that of General Shafter. The
precedent for retaining General Shat
ter in his volunteer command was es-
taDlished in the case of General Gra-
ham at Camp Meade last year.
S The retirement of General Shafter
will make room for the promotion of
either General Lawton or General Mac
Arthur to the rank of brigedier gen.
eral in the regular establishment. Both
of these officers now hold the rank of
colonel
In connection with these retirements
and promotions it is understood that
five colonels of the line, who will soon
retire for age are to be successfully
promoted to tina rank of general Off
GERS before their retirement. They are
Colonel Royal T. Frank, First artil-
lery; Colonel Samuel Orenshine TWEEN
ty-t1lird infantry; Colonel Alex M. Rem
nington, Second artillery; Colonel Louis
III. Carpenter, Fifth cavalry and Colonel
Daniel Burge, Seventeenth infantry.

cHAPLA1Ns FOR PHILIPPINES.
Secretary Root Orders All Those
Available to Report For Duty.

Available to Report For Duty.
New York, Oct IA special to the
Tribune from Washington says: Secre-
tary Root has ordered all of the avail
able chaplains in the army to the Phil
ippines. When congress increased the
strength of the army from $4,000 to
100000 men, temporarily, at the last
session, it failed to make provision for
any additional chaplains, overlooking
the clause limiting them to thirty. OF
this number at least half of those hold
ing commissions are superannuated and
altogether unfit for active service at
domestic posts, so the service has been
rather short of spiritual advisers of
late.
Eight of the regular chaL.ains are
already in General Otis army corps.
With their denominations they are:
Captain Henry Swift, Episcopalian;
Captain Charles C. Pierce, Episcopal
ian; Captain Walter Marvine, Episco-
palian; Captain Charles w. Vreeland,
Episcopalian Captain Hart, Roman
Catholic; Captain Edward r. Fitzger-
aid, Roman Catholic; Captain Joseph
u. Sutherland. Presbyterian Captain
j. A. Randolph. Methodist.
There is only one other Roman Cath
olic in the service-Captain Edward J.
Vattman, who. as a result of fever
contracted in Cuba, is now on six
months sick leave.
The chaplains ordered today, all of
them having volunteered for duty in
the Philippines, are: Captain John S.
Seibold, Episcopalian: Captain Newell
L. Pilchard, Episcopalian; Captain

Eleven Suburban Additions Want to
Be Annexed.
IS ALMOST UNANIMOUS
PETITIONERS SEEK ADVANTAGE
OF THE MUNICIPALITY.
Two Hundred Acres South of Tenth

ing to Be Taxed.

a. a.
Eleven Of the rapidly growing subnr-
ban additions adjoining Salt Lake on
the south are knocking at the gates Of
this city for admission. The EFFORT has
been progressing since early in the
summer as announced by The Herald
several months ago, and now the great.
majority of the property owners and
residents of Capitol Avenue addition,
Waterloo. North Waterloo, Villa Park.
Webb 81 Palmer's addition Rice g Gel
der's addition. Chicago addition. Ken

lington are ready TO. ask the city
council to permit their 200 acres of land
lying between Tenth and Eleventh.
South and State and Fifth East streets
to become part Of Greater Salt Lake.
Want City's Advantages.
In this choice part of the valley are
over 200 fine homes and more than 1000
men, women and children. Houses are
going up continually and the population
is increasing. The grown people resid-
ing in these additions have business in
the city every day. Many OF them
earn their living UP town and all trade
with Salt Lake merchants, for there
are no others within reach. Their chill
dren have to travel long distances to
100000 worth of taxable property and
are willing to be taxed to help maintain
the city government, but they want the
advantages Of the city schools, i'm
proved and lighted streets and access
to the city water mains, just as the
people farther east have.
Almost Unanimous.
The petition for annexation to be
presented to the city council Tuesday
evening by j. A. Fritsch and 229 others
will bear the signatures of 80 per cent
of the resident property owners and the
great majority of nonresident property
owners. This is the result of d thorough
canvass.
The petitioners Will undertake to
show that the city is growing south
ward and that it is only d question of
short time before the annexation
must take place if their plea for aid
mission to the city is not now needed.
They will also demonstrate that while
the proposed annexation will be bene-
fetal to them, it will likewise be of adj
vantage to the entire municipality. The
country east of them was annexed TO
the city a few years ago, and NO one,
the petitioners will argue, has ever re-
gretted the action.

ATKINSON ON MOTIVES OF WAR.
BOSTON MAN SPEAKS AT THE
COMMERCIAL CONGRESS.
Object Is to Lie, Cheat, Ambush,
Strike the Enemy In the Back and
to Destroy Life and Property.

Philadelphia, Oct 1.-THE second
days session of the international COM
mercial congress opened today with a
States Senator Boies Penrose presided
as chairman. Assurance was given by
him that President Mckinley Will visit
the congress before it's close.
The feature of the morning session
was an address by Edward Atkinson
Of Boston on the neutrality-suspicious. of
Nations" Mr.. Atkinson spoke in fa-
Tor of tariff and currency reform. Re
ferring to Kauts essay Eternal Peace
and its prediction of the suppression Of
war by force of mutual commercial
benefits, he said:
We seem TO be far away, and yet we
are nearer to that conclusion than ever
before; perhaps very near. The terri
bic cost of preparation for war is be-
coming an unbearable burden to any
European state The present forms of
society cannot exist much longer under
its pressure; il is leading TO anarchy.
When such men as Roosevelt set up the
strenuous life of the soldier as. a
worthy object of attainment in and for
itself rather than an obnoxious neces-
sity as a matter of national defense, 4
can only pity the ignorance which leads.
to such a. vicious conclusion
He expressed the opinion that the
dawning century will witness the sup
preston of the hell of war by the
''benefieent force of commerce" He
concluded by drawing a comparison be-
tween the effects of commerce and war.
The former, he said is governed by
''probity, integrity, truth and a high
standard of character, mutual trust and
mutual service and while its motive is
gain, it is not at the cost of Others, but
to mutual benefit"
Admitting that, the conduct of a war
has developed high and noble qualities
and in defense of liberty is justifiable
and sometimes necessary he maintain
ed that It's motive. is Ito lie, to cheat, to
ambush, to strike the enemy in the
back or the flank, to secure the gun or.
ether instrument of carnage by which
his forces may be slaughtered without
power of defense on his part; often to-
destroy hfc property, to deyastate his
country and by every evil method that
would be thought dishonorable and
fraudulent in commerce, to secure the
ends that are sought in warfare
The either speakers were Henry Miles,
representative Of the Montreal board
of trade; ]. H. Sternberg of Pennsylva-
mia; A D. Tompkins of North Caro-
limo, on Southern Cotton Industries,
and Leo Vossen, representative of the
AK La Chapelle board of trade. The
congress then adjourned until Monday.

RECEPTION IN OAKLAND.
The Montana and Kansas Volunteers
Are Nicely Entertained

Oakland, Cal, Oct 1.-THE Montana
and Kansas volunteer regiments were
given rousing reception in this city
today in honor of their return from
Manila. At the exposition building an
address Of welcome was delivered by
Mayor W. r. Snow.
General Shafter made a short ad-
dress. He commended the men for the
excellent service they had done in the
Philippine campaign and spoke highly
of their bravery. Chaplain Hull of the
First Montana regiment gave the vol
unteers the highest praise. General
Frederick Funston, formerly colonel of
the Kansas regiment. spoke briefly of
the campaign and the patriotism cry
hibited by the American Soldiers in the
PhiliDDines

POLITICIANS ARE ALARMED.
Kansas Troops May Arrive Home On
Election Day.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. IA cognmotiOn
has been caused among the politicians
of this and nearby Kansas cities by the
report from San Francisco that General
Shafter has fixed Nov. 3 as the date
for the mastering out of the Twentieth
Kansas regiment. This arrangement
would throw the regiment into Topeka
on Nov Z, which is election day, and it
is feared that the appearance OF the
volunteers at that time would draw all
the voters from the nearby towns into
Topeka and that all interest in the cleo
ton here would be lost.
Republican leaders were in conmuni-
cation with the war department today
in an endeavCr to have General Shafter
instructed to change the date. Either
an earlier or a later date will suit.
