GEN. MILES NOT TO ACT
AS SECRETARY OF WAR
Executive Orders Issued by the Presi-
dent-Ch:ef Clerk Was in Charge
Yesterday.

An executive order has been issued
BY President Roosevelt resembling the
old order of like nature making the
General Commanding the Army Acting
Secretary OF War In the Illness or alb
sence of both the Secretary of War and
his Assistant Secretary. The resembling
order reads as follows:
The executive orders of August 30.
1901. and September 90 1900. authorizing
and directing certain officers 10 perform
the duties of the Secretary OF war dur
ing the illness or temporary absence
from the seat Of government of the
Secretary of War and the Assistant Sec
retarv of War are deemed TO be no
longer operative, and are hereby re-
scinded."
The old orders provided that General
Miles should 80 act. and in his absence
or inability the Adjutant General of the
Army should become Acting Secretary
Of War. The new order cut out both
save by special order from the Presi-
dent
To clinch the matter Secretary Root,
before leaving for Annapolis, yesterday
signed the following order:
"Bv virtue of the authority vested IN
me by the act approved March 4. 1871.
hereby authorize John c. schofeld.
chief clerk of the War Department, TO
sign reauisltions upon the Treasury and
other papers requiring my signature.
during my temporary absence from
Washington on the 23d day OF MAY. 1902.
and until my return or until the return
of the Assistant Secretary Of War.
"ELIHU ROOT"
Formerly Colonel Ward. Adiutant
General TO General Miles, performed the
duties of General Corbln In the latter's
absence. but this new order prevents
this. Yesterday Lieut.. Col. George An
drews had that desk. AS Colonel Ward
is directly under the orders Of General
Miles. the change is significant.
