Captain Stockton. U. S. N. the President

eral Corbin in regard to the assignment of
Army officers for the summer course of
instruction at the college. In addition 10
number Of naval officers. the class this
year will be augmented by assignments
from the Army. Marine Corps, and the
Revenue Cutter Service. The intention is
to have cooperation between military and
naval branches of the Government to Sc
cure a better understanding of the prob
lens which these branches may have to
determine in time of war.
Mr.. Hackett, General Corbin. and Cap
tain Stockton made arrangements which
will result in the assignment to the Naval
War College of five Army officers now on
duty at the West Point Military Academy
These officers are Colonel Davis. Judge Ad-
vocate; Lieutenant Colonel Bellinger,
Quartermaster; Major Knight. Engineer
Corps. and Lieutenants Chamberlain and
Davis. of the line. In the summer months
they will be practically free from the du-
ties which they are now performing ut
West Point. 1t was arranged also that
other omcers OF the Army VIII go 10 New
port whenever they could get the oppor-
tunity to deliver lectures on military top
les or to observe the workings of the
course of instruction. General Corbin will
make two or three visits. and General
Ludlow. who is chairman of the board ap-
pointed to consider plans for an Army War

President il is understood will rely on
Governor Aliens recommendations for
these places. He is pleased with the re-
port of the Governor of the island on the
men whose names have been sent to him.
The ether places are those Of judge and
Attorney General. which, it is understood,
are practically settled, though no names
will be given out until the appointments
are determined.
II was decided that Governor Allen shall
make acquisitions upon the President for
the moneys paid into the treasury in Porto
Rico during the interregnum. The Admin
istrat;on will take no steps toward re-
peal of the war revenue act. There has
been some doubt on this subject to this
time, as the pressure has been great from
druggists and brewers especially to have
the act repealed. but the Cabinet advise
against such a repeal and no attempt will
be made TO get Congress to act upon the
matter this session. 1t Is believed that
during the summer the committees that
have been considering petitions to have
the act repealed will make up their re-
ports to be submitted early In the next se5-

AN APPEAL FROM LIBERIA.
The United States Asked to Donate
One or Two Shins.

The United States Asked to Donate
One or Two Ships.
The little Republic Of Liberia, over
which this Government exercised protec-
torate for many years. has lost its entire
navy, ard has appealed to the President
for one or two ships suitable for patrol
work in the shallow waters near Monrovia,
the Liberian capital Several years ago
Great Britain presented the Republic with
two fiat bottom boats armed with old guns.
These comprised her total naval strength.
Both vessels were lost recently, one in a
storm. while the other met disaster on a
rock with which she collided.
The Liberian officials appealed to
United States Minister Smith to secure
from this Government two boats suitable
for patrol duty. Mr.. Smith communicated
with Secretary Hay, and in a long letter
represented that Great Britain had some
years ago given the Republic two ships
for which she had no further use and that
1t would be both generous and advisable
for the United States to ccrue to Liberals
assistance and donate TO her some of the
auxiliary vessels purchased during the
Spanish war and for which the Navy had
little use.
Secretary Long was asked to name the
boats and il possible select one or two for
the waters of the Liberian rivers. The Pc
crie. seagoing vessel of light dispiace-
nent. was recommended by Chief Con-
structor Hichborn as available, and the
work of fitting her for the voyage across
the ocean was about to be ordered when
the Naval Ordnance Bureau found that she
was required for service at the new maya
zine station. Long Island. in the Hudson
River. and the plan was abandoned. The
whole list Of small vessels now at the
navy yards has been examined and the
Department finds not one of the ships can
be spared for presentation to Liberia.
Minister Smith will be told that the United
States regrets she has no ships at present
to present 10 Liberia, but that later some
may be found that are suited for her pur-
poses

Copy of Charges and Specifications
Received Here.
A copy Of the charges and specifications
against Lieut. Robert B. Cramer, Of the
Thirty fourth Infantry, whose dismissal
from the Army was officially announced
last week, reached the War Department
yesterday In the mail from Manila. Lieu
tenant Cramer is son-in-law Of Colonel
Evan p. Howell of Atlanta, and 1t was not
discovered that Colonel Howell would not
endorse his application. There was not.
however, sufficient complaint against him
to warrant his dismissal from the service,
but since his arrival at Manila his conduct
resulted in court-martial by a court of
which Major Herbert S. Foster. Twelfth
Infantry. was the presiding officer. The
specification of the first charge was that
Lieutenant Cramer not only disgraced
himself in a public house in Manila, but
acknowledged the offence. There were two
specifications in the second charge, the first
being that he entered the office of Capt.
+. Y. Krug, Twentieth Infantry, police
captain of the Sampaloe district. and made
complaint about certain women, but with
drew the complaint and gave his word that
he would take no further action against
them: which he broke by going to their
house and demanding money from them.
The second specification was that after
having refused the aid Of the police captain
he entered the same house and by threat
ening to have the house closed up and the
inmates arrested. forced the keeper OF the
house to give him 500. Mexican money.
and gave written receipt for il.
Lieutenant Cramer entered a plea of
guilty to the specifications. but not guilty
to the charge. The court found him guilty
on all charges and, specifications and sem
fenced him to be dismissed from the ser
vice. The sentence was approved by Gen
aral Otis and ordered to take effect April
20. The War Department has taken the
Ease uD for review. but will make no
change in the sentence
