the United States. 1t Is generally con-
ceded among well-informed officers of the
army in this city that the appointment will
go either to Gen. John c. Bates, Gen. S.
B. NJ. Young or Gen. Lloyd Wheaton These
officers hold the rank of brigadier general
of volunteers, and each has distinguished
himself in active military service in the
Philippine Islands. All three are booked
for recognition for their distinguished SER
vices and the two not selected for appoint
ment major general of volunteers will
eventually be made brigadier generals in
the regular establishment Gen Young
who was one of Gen. Lawton's principal as
Sistants. is generally conceded to be his
most probable successor. 1t is also under
stood that Brig. Gen. A. R. Chaffee, who
has been chief of staff to Gen. Brooke
commanding the division of Cuba is likely
to be relieved of duty in that division in a
short time and given an important COM
mand with the army in the Philippines
Gen. Chaffec is colonel of the Sth Cavalry
operations against the Indians in the far
west. Like Gen. Lawton. he is a fighter
pure and simple, and he has many of the
other characteristics of the deceased SOL
dier.
Gen. Lawton held the office of inspector
general. with the rank of colonel Iii the
regular establishment. His death makes
the following promotions in that depart
ment: Lieut.. Col. Peter A Nroom. to be
colonel; Mai Charles II. Hcyl. to be lieu
tenant colonel. y vacancy is thus created

which will probably be filled by transfer

GOVERNMENT OF TUTUILA.
Natives Likely to BE Allowed a Large
DEGREE of Freedom.

The State Department has had no mes
sage from United States Consul Osborne at
Apia to confirm the reports of fresh trou-
Bile In Samoa, and this fact is regarded as
sufncient to show that any slight disturb
ance that may have occurred has been very
much exaggerated in the report. The Off
ctals ire confident that whatever trouble
may occur will not be chargable to the
German officials, as the German gov
ernment is quite anxious as our own
that the pending treaty providing for a
permanent settlement of the whole Samoan
question shall not be endangered at this
critical stage.
As soon as the treaty is ratified by the
Senate it Will be in order for the President
to devise some means for the government
OF the Island of Tutuila, which will become
the exclusive possession of the United
States. The disposition is to interfere as
little as possible with the natives inhabit-
ing the island, who number about 5000.
and as the primary object of the acquisition
OF Tutuila was the establishment of an i'm
pcrtant coaling and naval station in that
quarter of the globe it is probable that the
United States government will have its
principal repr esentatiye in the person of a
naval governor corresponding to Capt.
Leary. who Eas thus far acquitted himself
with credit on the Island of Guam.

TO MAKE A BOULEVARD.
Heavy Teams to he Kept OF PennsyI-
vania Avenue During Certain Hours.

A movement is on foot in Congress to
make boulevard of Pennsylvania avenue
by prohibiting wagons. carts and business
vehicles from using that street during GER
tain hours of the day. The proposition
originated among members of the House
District committee, by whom 1t has been
discussed informally, but it is said that
number of senators to whom the subject
has been preached have signified their con-
currence in the proposed undertaking.
The idea is to secure legislative action
which will authorize the Commissioners to
fix regulations to limit the traffic this
main highway of the city by prohibiting
heavy vehicles to use the street, say after
o'clock in the morning and until dark.
1t is urged in behalf of the plan that
travel on Pennsylvania avenue is congested
by the unnecessary presence of numbers of
hauling teams. which crowd off the car
riages and lighter vehicles which of neces-
sity have to go on the avenue. There is
great deal of travel between the Capitol,
GepotS and market and uptown points along
this street. Another plea for the change is
that the safety of the throngs of people on
the avenue would be conserved by keeping
off the heavy teams.
Some of the members of the committee
who are interesting themselves in the mat
ter have made observations in the last few
days and say they were surprised to see
the amount of heavy travel on the avenue.
They say it is a common sight to see
string of five or six sand gravel wagons,
or half dozen carts in line, pushing
through the avenue. when they might as
well be using side street for east and
west travel. Lumber teams and wagons
hauling railroad iron, taking up a great
deal of room, jog along, they say, impeding
the movements of other vehicles and add
ing 10 the danger and discomfort of every
one.
This could be avoided, ii is urged by re-
quirlng such vehicles to take other streets
without delaying their own progress and
the avenue could then be converted into a
driving boulevard. The proposition Will he
brought before the House District commit
tee officially when Congress reconvenes

TO RATIFY RECIPROCITY TREATY.
Bill Introduced in the French Cham
Der of Deputies.

A bill submitting the Franco-American
reciprocity treaty to the approval of the
French parliament was introduced yester-
day in the chamber of deputies.
The preamble goes on to explain that the
treaty is the result of two years work 1t
says that while pressed to retaliate against
the restrictions of the Dtngley tariff the
government deemed a resort to Diplomacy
preferable in view of "our traditional SYM
pathies for the republic of the United
States and due consideration for our true
economic interests"
1t then recapitulates the main points of
the provisional arrangement of Nav (. 1898
which opened the way for further negotia-
tions, as French imports into the United
States, relieved from the tariff increased
50 per cent.
Such American productions as cast iron
leather articles and machine tools 'in
which American manufacturers possess a
distinct superiority and which constitute a
danger to French industry" are, the pre-
amble points out, still excluded from the
minimum tariff Moreover. agricultural
and cattle products are similarly excluded,
in order to protect the French from for
mldabte American competition"
This result" says the preamble, lis all
the more important because Mr.. kasson
made pressing demands on behalf of Amer
lean agriculture. The French ambassa dor
obtained useful reductions in favor Of
French agricultural products exported to
the United States such as olive oil and
preserved vegetables
The preamble compares the respective ad-
vantages gained by the contracting parties
saying:
Only per cent of American products
value 2a,oO0000 francs, benefit, the Amer
ican gain being 1,oT7,45o francs annually
while over 80 per cent of French products
value f369ioWD francs benefit, the French
gain being 5.2l9,294 francs annually
After particularly calling attention to the
important fact that the concessions OBJ
tained by France are exclusive and should
tren. endously increase French exports,
while at the same time the treaty is so ar
ranged as to prevent an American invasion
of French markets, the preamble concludes
as follows:
THE government at the White House in
signing with us this treaty have shown
their desire to reserve to French commerce
the first fruits of the tariff concessions
which the Dingley bill authorized to be
granted to foreign powers. This action
gives the treaty value it would he impos-
sible tc misunderstood and makes this doc
ument a work which should draw closer at
the same time the economic relations of the
two peoples and the political affinities of
the two republics
