ARMY APPOINTMENTS MADE.
Provision in the Appropriation Bill
VIII BE JNeleAa


Will Be Useless.
The War Department has apparently ex-
ecuted coup upon the Senate with refer
ence to the designations of appointment Of
officers on the staff In the army reorgani-
Zation bill provision was made for the de-
tail Of line officers to the staff. and there
has been some controversy as to the man.
ner OF filing vacancies. To clear up this
contention provision was made in the army
appropriation bill, which has not yet be-
come a law, for the filling of original va
cancies by appointment.
The Secretary of War, meanwhile acting
under the provisions of the army reorgani-
zation bill, has made the assignment of Of
ficers to the staff for a term of four years
This assignment left vacancies in the line
which it was expected by those favoring
the original appointments to vacancies
would be filled by appointment by the
President.
1t appears, however, that in anticipation
of this provision in the army bill these va
cancies were filled by promotion and the
names sent to the Senate for confirmation
This morning, just before the adjournment
of the all-night session, a large number of
combinations were made and among them
names for these positions. This was
done without question: and 1t appears that
the provision in the army appropriation
bill will be made entirely Ineffective, and
that those having friends seeking the orig
inal appointments will be cut out entirely.

LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS PREVENTED.
Effect of the Failure of the River and
HarbOr Bill.

The killing of the river and harbor bill In
the Senate this morning prevented the ex-
penditure of SOC, $50 for continuing the i'm
provement of the Potomac river, and S112,-
500 for improving the Anacostia river from
the Potomac river to the navy yard by pro-
viding a channel suitable for vessels of the
navy. The latter provision had been fur
ther amended to provide that the work
should be done in accordance with the mil
-dollar-plan of improving the Anacostia
river from the Potomac river to the navy
yard bridge, which had been submitted to
Congress in response to a resolution. Both
Of these provisions Of the bill had been
agreed upon by the conferees. Had the pro-
vision regarding the Anacostia river he
come law 1t would have been equivalent
to committing Congress to carry out the
complete plan for the Improvement of that
stream, which would. from year to year,
have been appropriated for under q continu-

GIFT TO SENATOR FRYE.
Presented With n Loving Cup by His
AssOciates


All members Of the Senate present in
the city participated Saturday afternoon in
the presentation OF a magnificent loving
cup to Senator Frye OF Maine. who retires
today from the office Of president pro tenn
pore of the Senate. which place he has oc-
cupied since the death Of Vice President
Hobart. The ceremony occurred Just after
the beginning of the recess Of the Senate
at $50. in the Marble Room, where the
presentation was made by Senator Hoar.
Mr.. Hoar assured Mr.. Frye that 1t was
token of affection inspired by the course
Mr.. Frye had pursued as their presiding
officer, in which position all felt that he
had been inspired only by the desire to
fitly do his duty.
He added that the suggestion for the pre-
sentation had come from the democratic
side of the chamber. from political oppo-
nent Of Senator Frye.
Mr.. Frye replied with feeling that he
could not command words in which to
properly express his gratitude. The cup
itself he considered very beautiful. but the
fact that its presentation is inspired by af-
fection and appreciation rendered 1t, he
said, thousand times more beautiful II
would" he added rather have the appre-
citation and friendship of my fellow sena-
tors than unlimited silver and gold"
