A NAVAL PROBLEM SETTLED.
SECRETARY LONGS DECISION ON PROMO
TIoNs FOR CALAMITY

SECRETARY LONGS DECISION ON PROMO
TIoNs FOR CALAMITY
Washington March 15.-Secretary Long to-day
rendered decision on that feature of the recent
enactment of Congress promoting officers for gal
liant service and providing that the promotion OF
these officers shall interfere with the regular
flow of promotions 1t difficult to reconcile
these extra promotions and the regular promo
tions, and Congress provided that the promotions
for gallantry should carried on the naval list as
additional names" The effect of this promises
TO be far reaching, for in effect these additional
make a large increase in the navy For
instance. the rear -admrals increased from
eighteen to at least twenty-one, with prospects
OF further increase, while the captains number
ing about fifty may be increased to from sixty to
seventy-ave. So II runs all through the naval list
The decision to-day particularly referred to
certain officers whose served as a sort of
test Of the construction of the entire law Secre-
tary Long holds that the additional officials are
not to be so regarded until they reach the higher
grade to which they promoted. The effect OF
this is TO make Rear-Admiral Higginson add
uonal officer OF that grade from the date of the
act. Captain Edward NJ. Shepard being then at
the head Of the captains list is promoted to the
grade of rear-admiral. The Bureau Of Navigation
had urged that Captain Frank Wildes should be
promoted simultaneously with Captain Shepard
but Secretary Long holds that Captain Wildes
must wait for vacancy in the list of rear-ad-
mirals. For similar reasons the Secretary holds
mat Lieutenant Commander w. B. Bailey cannot
De promoted under a clause of the The Secre-
pose of the law was not hasten promotion among
officers advanced for service. but to prevent

said Governor Odell frankly upon being asked
his opinion as TO possible legislation 10 enable
the city to accept Mr.. Carnegies gift and guar

established. The Governor said. however that
he would not send any special message TO the
legislature urging action in the matter. since
such legislation ought TO be requested by the
city itself and be supported by the city mem
bers. When il had been approved by the Iegis-
lature if IT was plainly desired by the city OF
New-York, he would certainly approve IT. The
legislature would be in session for at least
month vet and therefore there would be ample
time to pass legislation enabling New-York 10

THE Library Commission Controller Coler
said has already considered this offer Of Mr.
Carnegie and ] think that there is a good
chance of his offer being accepted. There are
some difficulties in framing an act committing
the city a permanent support of the Carnegie
libraries but l think they can be overcome. In
deed. there is every token now that they have
been overcome
Chief Judge Parker expressed his admiration
OF Mr.. Carnegie's great gift.
There were only d few of the New-York SEN
ators and Assemblymen here, since the legis-
lature has adjourned, but such here say
they would gladly vote for act arming New
