SERVICE IN CHINESE WATERS.
Claim of Commander Rodgers for
Additional Pay Rejected.

l. + Mitchell, Assistant Comptroller OF
the Treasury today gave out n decision
IN which ne affirmed the action of the
Auditor in disallowing the claim Of Com
mander Raymond p. Rodgers. United
States Navy. who claimed 10 per cent
increase Of pay for service on The United
States ship Nashville in Chinese waters.
The Auditor disallowed his claim for
the reason that an officer serving on board
a United States vessel in Chinese waters
was not serving I'm China within the mean
ing Of the army appropriation act Of
March 2 1901, and that an officer on sea
duty on the Asiatic station was rot on
duty on a foreign station within the mean
ing Of the acts granting increased pay for
such duty
In his decision. Mr. Mitchell said:
There is no doubt that a commissioned
officer OF the line of the navy or Of the
Medical or Pay Corps detailed for shore
duty IN China during the period i'm gues-
ton would be entitled TO the u per cent
uui increase Of pay for the period Of such
service, including the time occupied in
travelling from the Philippine Islands to
Ghina. and IN returning from China TO the
United States. but II does not follow that
the same increased pay is payable to such
Officers for sea service in the waters ad-
9acent TO China OF in other foreign
waters. Service I'm such foreign waters
although denOminated by the navy ser
NANE hS a EAaLtl- IS not service for
elsn station within the meaning Of The
Army Appropriation act Of March 2 1871
since mo such station IS known or rec0g-
nized in army administration. The term
as there used must be understood in the
sense in which IL is used in the army and
not IN the sense In which Il is used in
Inc navy. since the act had reference
primarily 70 officers in the army
The act of May 26. 1860 was evidently
not intended TO have broader applica-
ton than the act Of March . 1901. and no
Increased pay can be allowed for sea ser
Vice in the waters adjacent to the places
spegihed therein Like the act Of March
:. 1861, it was passed with reference pri-
mariiy, 70 the army. whose offic ers are
supposed TO serve on shore. Congress
could not have had in mind service in wa
1erS adlacent 10 the places named except
as incidental 10 some service Of the Of
Ecer ON shore, and the meaning Of Con-
sress must De carried into effect in ap-
plying the law TO the navy"

Awful Crime, if Crime it Be.

LAKE Cry, Fla. January 26. The
residence of George Fleming gent of
the Seaboard Air Line at Waterfowl,
was burned at 2 o'clock. Mr.. Elem
ing, his wife and Oldest child wero
badly burned, and the two younger
children burned to death.
The two children who were cremated

and respectively.
Miss Stella Crawford, sister Of Mrs.
Fleming and niece of DR.. John T..
Crawford, Secretary Of State, was also
dangerously burned and her wounds
may provo fatal.
1t Is generally believed that the
family had beed ohloroformed and the
house fred by incendiories after rob-
berry had been committed, as consider
abe money and valuables were either
stolen previous to the fire or burned.
Not member of the family awoko

A Monument to Forrest.

A number Of Memphis ladies' have
organized an association to erect il
that city handsome equestrian statue
of General n. B. Forrest, whose home
was in Memphis both before and after
the Civil War.
1t is strange that the memory OF
this great soldier has not long age
been honored as The ladies of Mem phis
| now propose to honor it. It is admit
ed that Forrest was one of the great.
est military geniuses this country
has ever produced, and his fame has
extended throughout the civilized
world.
Gen. Grant declared that he was.ths
create st cavalry commander on either
side of the Civil War.
Lord Wolseley ranks him among the
most remarkable soldiers Of modern
times.
The Car Of Russia, during our Civ
il War, sent military expert to this
country to report on any new and val.
nahle discoveries 20 the art of war
that might be made in the campaigns
of either army. On his return to Rus
sia this observer reported that the
most valuable addition to Elective
warfare that he had been able to per-
ceive was Forests method of hand
ling cavalry; that his rapid transfor-
nation of cavalry into infantry. He
used horses for rapid movement, and
when quick transportation had been
accomplished, Forrest dismounted his
men and had them to fight as infan-
try
Some of Forests achievements, his
victories over much larger forces than
his own which he accomplished by his
wonderful strategems and celebrity of
movement, seem more like ror ance
than reality.
Tennessee owes it: herself to erect
lasting memorial to Forrest, and the
Tennessee Legislature should grant
tho aid to their enterprise which the
ladies OF the Forrest Memorial associa-
tion have usked.-Adantu Journal.
