WASHINGTON. D. c., Dec. s.
A new leader viii take his place at
the head of the army January and
a new star will rise in society on thar
day. Major General Adna Il. Chaffee
will become chief of the general staff,
with the rank of lieutenant general.
Mrs. Chafe. by virtue Of her husband :
position, will be moved near the head
of the procession in the society of the
capital, where precedence cuts such an
important figure.
They speak of General Chaffee as the
best soldier in the army. e is gruif
in his ways, the result of 40 years Of
soldering, but he is considerable of the
men under him, and there is none they
would rather follaw in campaign.
General Chaffee is a native OF Ohio.
His career in the army began as pri-
vate in the Sixth cavalry. in 1861. lie
became a lieutenant IN 1865, captain
in 1867, major in 1888, lieutenant col
onel in 1897, colonel in 1899 and major
general in 1901. That was in the regu-
lar army. During the Spanish wal
he served first as a bligadier general
and later as a major general of vol
unteers.
General Chaffee led the American
forces in China. He made a favora-
Bile showing in comparison with the
best soldiers of the great armies repre-
scented there. Then he was given the
command of the PHILIPPINES. Their
