REFUSED RETIREMENT.
Naval Officers Who Will Not Get Higher
Rank Under The Personnel Act.

nduh OAAO4 AAC NAcOAANA INV
The applicants for retirement after &C
wears service, with rank and pay of the
next higher grades. have been refused
two officers OF the navy on the ground
that their services have not been credit
able. These officers are Commander
Dennis w. Mallan. of Maryland. now
under suspension. and Commander X.
<. Impey, recently court -martlaled on
account OF trouble over dentists bill.
Both officers have asked that they be
allowed to retire with the rank and pay
Of captain. Two laws relate to such
cases-one providing that officers serv-
ing in the Civil War may retire alter 20
years service with their present rank.
while the Personnel act adopted later au-
thorizes officers with 'creditable record"
to retire with increased rank after forty
wears service, Ii is held that the fact
that Commander Mullan and Command
er lmpey have been court maTlialed bars
them from the advantages OF the Person
mel act, but does not operate to prevent
their retirement under the first law.
Commander Mullan is a resident of
this city. Tie has accepted the depart
ment's decision and applied for retire
ment with his present rank, and the
President is expected to grant the re-
quest. AT the same time it is believed
the President will remit the unexpired
term OF the sentence. Commander lmpey
who resided here with his family on Prince
George street last winter, will probably
make no further application for retire
ment. Captain Mullan has made his
home in Annapolis since his suspension
and comes from a well-known Maryland
family. Captain o. w. FaTenholt. who
is now on his way home, will also be re-
tired this month. He is one OF the few
officers of the line who is not graduate
OF the Naval Academy.

Oreditable Work.

The creditable work on that portion OF
the old City Hotel building recently pur-
chased by the Masons shows for itself,
but too much praise cannot be given 10
the two young men who did the work,
Mr.. Ellis Strange and Mr.. Joseph Brady,
both of whom are to be congratulated on
the result. Some vaDdals in years past
had color washed this beautiful colonial
brick building. The Masons desiring to
restore it to its original appearance en-
gagged Messrs Ellis Strange and Joe
Brady to scrape the bricks, which after
many days of tedious work, was accom-
plished. and the old building now pre-
sents its original face to view. The
beautiful old brick front stands out now
as 1t did when Washington and La Fay
ette saw it, and the rooms are also to be
restored to their original state.
