Representative j. d. Adams came in
from Denver yesterday and departed
for the capitol again this afternoon.
Mr.. Adams felt the pulse, so to speak,
Of his constituency regarding matters
now before the legislature. Mr.. Adams
opposed the Bucklin bill during the
regular session and conscientiously be-
lieves that he is doing only his duty in
endeavoring to get the act repealed be-
fore it is submitted to the people to vote
on. He advances many plausible rea-
sons for his stand upon the question,
among which are: '.that the thickly
populated centers would control the
vote on such measure and defeat the
will of those who are the real bone and
sinew of the state" All should read
up on this question, as it is one of great
Importance, far reaching in its effects,
and one that will either prove great
detrlment or vast benefit to the prog
ress of the state. Alr. Adams is hearth
ly in favor of the Barela amendment
going before the people, but will very
probably vote for the repeal of the BIZ
ennial election amendment. = Rico

A NAVAL HERO.
Capt. Rudolph Sommers Of the Kear-
sarge Association

sarge Association.
Captain Rudolph Sommers a member Of
the Kearsarge Association, arrived in Wash
ington today from Franklin, Mass Can
tain Sommers carries with him his boat
ensign, the same which he kept floating to
the breeze during two fierce engagements
of the war. The first of these occurred
October "a, 1864, when, with crew of six.
he was fired on he was returning from
reconnaissance of the ram Albemarle,
lying at Plymouth, N. c. In the heavy
fire one member of the crew was killed and
two wounded, and the ensign riddled with
bullets. The second time was at the bat
tie of Fort Fisher, and the naval reports
give glowing accounts of Captain Sommers'
fearless daring on this occasion. With
small boat from the Tacony he was sound
ing the channel at New Inlet, and at the
same time dragging for torpedoes, when
the confederates opened fire on him from the
mound battery. One Of their solid shots
went through his flag, another struck the
top of the flagstaff and by the time Captain
Sommers had tied the ensign to a boat
hook and hoisted it bravely in the air an
other shot ripped through the stern Of the
boat, taking both legs off of one of the
crew and wounding another Captain Som
mers succeeded in tying up the wounded
mans legs to stop the blood and kept him
afoat in the water until the party was
picked up by another boat, the shots from
the battery raining around them during
this time.

PASTOR TAKES CHARGE
Rev. Thomas Boyd Gay of6ciates at
Garden Memorial Church.

Rev. Thomas Boyd Gay, Ph.D., who was
recently called from Ohio to the pastorate
of the Garden Memorial Presbyterian
Church. Minnesota avenue, Anacostia,
reached his new field Friday and officiated
yesterday at the morning and night SER
vices in the church. The edifice had been
attractively decorated for the occasion, spe-
cha, music had been prepared and a large
audience greeted the new pastor Mr. GAY
is a young man. He was born in the rural
district near Demos, Ohio, and procured
his early education at the Bellaire, Ohio.
High School. He engaged ct fret Il: ;rsr-
camille affairs, but, acting under the per-
suasion of his pastor, Rev. w. A. Williams,
now in this city, gave up business and be-
gan to study for the ministry.
Mr.. Gay subsequently graduated from
Franklin College, Harrison county, Ohio,
where he was in the same class with Rev.
Donald c. Mcleod and Rev. w. j. Hutchi-
son, now pastors, respectively, of the First
PreSby terian Church and the Westminster
Presbyterian Church in this city. Mr.. Gay
then entered the Danville Theological Sem
mary at Danville, KY, graduating in 1899
His first active work in the ministry was
as pastor of the Presbyterian churches of
Jackson and Canaan near Creston, which
charges he was serving when he received
the call to Garden Church.
Upon the severance of his pastoral rela-
tons with the two churches of which he
had been in charge. the local presbytery
placed on record resolutions certifying to
his work and worth. Mr.. Gays family
comprising his wife and two children,
reached Anacostia with him yesterday
They will take up their residence in Il: J
manse adjoining the church.
The new minister is gratified at the field
to which he has been called. He was in
vited to become the pastor of the church in
July last, following the resignation of Rev
Nelson H. Miller. and the invitation ex-
tended was adopted unanimously by the
members of Garden Church after hearing
the young minister in the pulpit several
times.
Mr.. Gay will become a member of the
Washington presbytery at it's next meet
ing, which will occur in the near future
Arrangements will then be made for his in
stallatlon as pastor of Garden Church. The
ceremony Is not expected to take place be-
fore the 18th of the present month.

COST OF THE ARMY
EXPENDITURES DECREASED DUR.
ING THE FISCAL YEAR.
Report of Paymaster General Bates
Not Cent Lost to the Govern
ment in Past Four Years,

According to the annual report of Pay-
master General Bates army expenditures
decreased during the past fiscal year s9IS
919 as compared with the preceding year,
partly owing to decrease in the pay Of tho
army AID In part owing to a reduction OF
claims for extra pay by volunteers. The
total expenditures made by Paymaster
General Bates were So. 52S.4T9.
Not Cent Lost.
1T is with satisfaction" says Gen. Bates.
that l am enabled to state that while the
total disbursements on account of pay, ETC.,
OF the army, from April 81. 1898. to June
80 1902 "a period of four years, two months
and ten days., aggregates 500 o51 .267. every
cent has been satisfactorily accounted for
and the government has not lost 1 cent
through defalcation, captures by the enemy,
ROBBERY or any other cause; while the cost
OF disbursing this vast sum, including the
salaries and mileage of paymasters and
their clerks. has been but Seven-tenthS OF
L per cent of the amount dsbsrsed,.
When 1t is considered that very much Of
the service paid for has been remote from
the United States, thereby increasing the
cost or payment, il will be evident that had
the troops been serving altogether In the
United States. the cost of disbursement
would in all probability have fallen to, or
below, siX-tenths of / per cent of the
amount disbursed
In this particular contrasted with the
civil war, when nearly a half million dol
lars was lost to the government the alb
Sence OF any loss whatever during the
period covering the Spanish American war
and the Philippine insurrection is a gratify-
ing tribute to the official probity, RESPONSE
blilty and accountability of the officers OF
the pay corps
Favors Civil Pension List.
Gen Bates says the clerical force OF the
office Is most efficient and that he has no
recommendation to make in regard to the
force, except to renew that in regard to the
establishment of a system by which clerks
VINO are disabled and who have served not
less than thirty years may be placed on a
civil pension list A scheme has been sug-
gested which. 1t would seem. he says might
work well and not Increase the expense Of
the government. That Is that all clerks
should have deducted from their pay a GER
tam amount each month, thus forming q
1und, held in trust by the United States
treasury, from which such retired pay or
pension could be paid Gen. Bates says he
sees no trouble in adjusting such a scheme
TO a practical working basis II the princi-
pie be approved.

TRADE OF PHILIPPINES.
Increase in Imports From 1899 te
1902 Many Millions.

The bureau of insular affairs has given
out a statement of the commerce of the
Philippine Islands by fiscal years from the
date of the American occupation to June
80, 1902, which shows that the port of Ma
Mia opened August 90, 1898, the general
opening of the other ports in the archpel-
ago beginning January 1, 1890.
In 1899 the total imports were S13, 113, O1O;
in 1900 the total imports were $50, 6Ol, 43O.
in 1901 $50, PTS, 406 and in 1902 S32 141. $40.
The increase of but 81 500. 436 in the i'm
ports for the fiscal year 1902 can, it is ex-
planned, be accounted for by the prevalence
of cholera and the strict quarantine neces-
STATED thereby.
There has been corresponding increase
in the exports from the fiscal year 1899 to
1902 The exports for $500 were $12 1863
1900. $40, 751 .O6s; 1901. 3,214,94s; 1902, S,-
