iany Useless Applications Made to
the Post Office Department..


A new raid Is being made upon Postmas-
ter General Smith and the assistant post
master general by those who desire posi-
tions in the new Post Office Department

cations, mostly personal, and made to the
assistant postmaster general, are received

building, ranging from charwomen, labor
ers, watchman, messengers and elevator
men, up to superintendent of the building.
Mr.. Heath, the assistant postmaster gen.
eral, stated today that the law providing

ment to the new building on Pennsylvania
avenue made no provision for any addi-
uonal force. No watchmen or laborers or
clerks or help of any character whatsoever

The force now employed in the present
Post Office Department building will SIM
ply be transferred to the new building when

Vided for removal from the old to the new
building, and this removal, it is understood.
will be effected under a contract whereby
the Post Office Department officials will be
relieved of employment of all wagons, teams
and laborers in the performance of the re-
moval work.
1t is expected that the Postmaster General

NAVAL REQUIREMENTS
Judge Advocate General Lemly on the
Personnel Act.

Judge Advocate General Lemly on the
Personnel Act.
Judge Advocate General Lemly has at
the request of the chief of the navigation
bureau, rendered an opinion constituting the
to voluntary retirements.
The section in question, section s, author
izes the President to retire officers of each
grade providing a certain specified number
OF vacancies do not occur annually in these
grades through natural causes. The judge
advocate general holds that the act requires
that sufficient number of officers, and no
more, are to be placed on the retired list to
cause the prescribed number of vacancies
and applying this rule to the existing naval
list he finds:
1. That there are already fourteen vacan-
cies above the grade of commander. Thir-
teen only being contemplated by law no
captains will be retired
. Above the grade of commander eigh-
teen vacancies now exist. The law pre-
scrlbes twenty-therefore, two commanders
will be retired.
3. Above the grade of lieutenant there
are twenty-five vacancies. The law pre-
scribes twenty-nine. Therefore, seven lieu
tenant commanders will be retired.
4. Above the grade of lieutenant 0unior
grade) there are thirty-one vacancies. Add
ing the voluntary retirements as above in
dicated. ie., two commanders and seven
lieutenant commanders, nine in all, we
have a total number of vacancies and vol
untary retirementS under the method sup
posed of forty. AS the law prescribes
forty, it happens that this method fulfillS
all requirements, upon the actual basis of
thirty-one vacancies this year existing
above the grade of lieutenant Gunior
grade).

DOES NOT REFER TO THE DISTRICT.
Applications for Census Bureau
Places Must he IndOrsed.

There are upward of 5000 applications on
file for positions in the census office. This
number will be greatly augmented when
the members of Congress send in the lists
of those whom they desire examined and
appointed.
Examinations are being held every other
day, and Examiner Powell has furnished
the director with an eligible list of nearly
500 names. No appointments are being
made at the present time. for the very good
force of clerks to do, and there will not be
for some months to come.
Applicants from the District of Columbia
are filing requests for examination every
day, and up TO the present time a goodly
percentage of those who have been exam
ined are residents of the District. In fact,
most of those appointed to positions have
been District peop-e, some of whom claimed
residence in other states. The plan of the
director was to make an equitable division
of the appointments among the states, and
the representatives and senator's were asked
to furnish a list of those whom they de-
sired examined and appointed. 1t would
have been simply loss of time to send in
an application from a state without the in
dorSement of a representative or senator
and it was to save this unnecessary trou-
bic that an order was issued to the effect
that no more applications would be accept
ed unlesA properly indorsed. This, how
ever, did not refer to the District of Co.
lumbia and applications are coming in from
this city every day and placed on file for
future consideration. In the absence of any
representation in Congress the director of
the. census has not delegated to any man
in the District the right to recommend peo-

HIS CLAIM NOT VALID.
DIR. Dortch Entitled Only to the Pay
of an Enlisted Man.

Mr.. Mitchell, The assistant controller of
the treasury, has rendered an adverse opin-
ion in the claim of Dr. Allan ". Dor;ch OF
Virginia. DR.. Dortch enlisted as a private
in the I'd Virginia Regiment, which was
stationed at Woodstock, Va, from October
to December DR.. Dortch states that there
vas no army surgeon present, and the men
of his company needed medical attention.
Capt. Magruder Of Company A excused DR..
Dortch from duty as a private and allowed
him to attend the sick. Later he was put
in charge of oil the sick of the company,
with the Endorsement of Col. Baker and
Maj. Shanks. For this attendance DR..
Dortch put in the usual claim for civilian
physicians who may be called in TO attend
soldiers, The account vas approved by the
surgeon general, but was rejected by the
auditor. The assistant controller holds that
there is no law under which Dr. Dortch
could be paid, notwithstanding his services
may have been meritorous. AS an enlisted
man, he says, DR.. Dortch could be ordered
wherever required by his superior officers,
and the only pay he can receive is that
of an enlisted man.
