tirement.
REPERIIC GPECTAL

gated to General Gillespie. Chief Of En-
gineers. and General Crozier. Chief OF ord

recorder and disbursing officer Of the Board
and Ordnance and Fertilization. an office
made vacant by the detachment OF Captain
William ". Gibson Of the Ordnance Depart
ment. who has been assigned to duty on
the General Staff and ordered to the Phil
ippines.
After q thorough canvass OF the Held
Generals Gillespie and CroZier united in the
selection OF Captain TRACY c. Dickson OF
the Ordnance Department, now on duty in
this city. for that Office and their selection
has been approved by Secretary Root.
Lieutenant Colonel Samuel Reber OF the
General Miles. was suggested for the as
signment and undoubtedly would have been
selected but for the fact that he was found
ineligible for such assignment under a
ruling made by the Secretary OF War that
no member Of the General STAFF should be
called upon to perform any other duty. as
1t was desired TO leave them entirely free
that might be deemed essential without
possibility OF embarrassment OF any other
branch OF the military service.
1t Is understood that Lieutenant General
Miles who is president of the Board. recon-
mended Lieutenant Colonel Reber for the po-
sition of recorder. but that he did so without
the knowledge of the intention OF the depart
mant to assign that officer to duty else
where in connection with the business Of
ncunced. 1t IS believed to be settled that
General Gillespie will succeed to the presi-
dency of the beard when General Miles re-
tires from active service next month.
