NEEDS o
President May be Authorized to
Graduate Naval Academy
Glass of 1901, Immed-

lately
Washington, Jan. 1.-The
Navy Department finds itself in
need of 800 line officers for pres
ent and Immediate future require.
ments. It is hardly likely that
much relief can be secured in
this matter for several years,
since there are alone in the
grades of ensign and junior lieu t.
enant Isl vacancies.
Secretary Longs remedy is to
increase the number of annual
appointments to the Naval Acad-
envy by allowing each Senator
one more cadetship and the Pres
dent from twenty to thirty ads
ditional. This might in time, he
believes, provide sufficient off
GERS to prevent vacancies and in
time gradually add to the num-
Der in the lower grades. The act
of the last session creating vac
ancies every four instead of six
years is now leading to larger
classes graduating, but the eff
feet will not be felt for a year or
two vet.
In accordance with the sug>
gestion Of the Navy Department
the naval committee of the House
has decided to incorporate in the
naval appropriation bill a pro-
vision authorizing the President
to graduate the class of the Ma.
val Academy Immediately upon
the passage of the measure. Be-
You'd this the com mitteesis not
expected to take action looking
to the increase of the commits
stoned force. It will be necessary
in case the provision remains in
the bill when it be3ames a law,
to order the cadets home for
their examinations preliminary
to graduating. The detachment
of these young men would be
very embarrassing at this mo-
ment, NEW of the small number
of watch officers available for
the many ships in commission.

How They do i'm Jersey City.

Two youpg people of Jersey
City, desiring to marry and not
having enough money, have ems
tered into an agreement, which
was duly drawn up before a JUS
tice of the Peace, to contribute
weekly to the raising of a fund of
81, 500. Ii in two years the sum
has not been achieved the idea of
marriage is to be forever ADAM
doned.
This device has many points
of merit in the tie achiog of ecos
nomy, the test of affection, and SO
forth, but the most striking thing
in the arrangement to the out
slider is that the woman is to con-
tribute $40 a week end the man
only SIS.
This is not because his incie
dental expenses will be greater
than tn Sc of the woman during
the two years, but because, though
both are stenographers, he is max
ing only $40 a we K, while she
makes $14. At this rate, before
the end of the present century, the
man will not be expected to con-
tribute at all.

ment bill now under considera-

without reference to it, and thus
for ten years a big question will
remain dormant, doubtless.
The Republicans showed their

sition over the Oimsted resolu-
ton, for they Supported it al
most solidly. The vote in favor
Of considering the resolution was
lob TO 81, which very fairly rep
resents the two parties in the
House. But for the determined
fight led by Mr.. Underwood, and
oaeked by MI. Richardson, this
attempt to reopen sectional strife
and to renew the passions of the
civil war might have become the
oasis Of a serious effort looking
to a reduction in Southern rep
resentation. It is dead now, and
no more attention need be paid
to it,.
Il was directed against the
Sta e cf Mississippi, South Caro-.
lima, North Carolina and Louisi-
ana, although in the resolution
an inquiry was called for in all
