Gen Greene's orders to wear their blouses
buttoned suffered considerably.
Inspector McClusky was followed by
envious eyes AZ he passed in and out OF
the big room. The chief sleuth wore
ream-colored silk shirt and very light
silk jacket While all hands were tanning
and grunting Jameson Lee Finney. the

WOOD A MAJOR-GENERAL,
This and Other Promotions soon to he
Announced.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-Announcement will
be made at the War Depart ment in few
days OF the following promotions In the
army:
Major-Gen. 8. B. NJ. Young, to be Lieuten-
ant-General upon the retirement OF Lieut. =
Gen. Nelson A. Miles, Aug. 8; Brig. Gen.
Leonard Wood to be Major General, vice
Gen. Young, promoted; Brig Gen. Samuel
s. Sumner to be Major-General upon the
retirement, on July 20. Of Brig. Gen. George
W. Davis.
While these promotions have already
been agreedupon, Secretary Root has deter
mined to defer making an official announce
ment until after his visit to Oyster Bay to-
morrow to confer with the President in
regard to army matters. 1t is considered
very probable that Capt. j. j. Pershing
who distinguished himself in the campaign
against the Moros, will also come in for
an increase In rank and that he will not
stop short Of being made a Brigadier-Gen-
eral.
The promotions to be determined upon
at this time will be sent to the Senate mex
December for confirmation, and there IL
some talk Of opposition to the promotion
of Gen. Wood to be a Major General Of
ficers OF the army are particularly op =
posed to the promotion on the ground
that it will block for a great many years
the advancement OF some of the older
officers In the service.
Gen. Wood will not be retired until
Oct 0, 1924, and his promotion to Major
General will make him in a few years the
senior Major General Of the army and in
line for advancement to DO Lieutenant
General. Should he receive this rank he
will be In position to hold 1t so long that no
officer OF rank above that Of Major now In
the service would be able to secure the
grade Of Lieutenant-G General before his
time for retirement.
In the Army Register issued by the War
Department the Regular Army service
performed by Gen. Wood is given as follows:
Assistant surgeon, Jan. s, 1886; accepted
Aug. II, 1889; Captain and assistant surgeon.
Jan. s, 1891; Brigadier- General, Feb. 4,
1901; accepted March 2, 1901
Referring to his volunteer record, it
says that in 1898 he was Colonel Of the First
United States Volunteer Cavalry, Brigadier-
General and Major-Geperal; honorably
discharged Of these grades April 10, 1890,
and the same day reappointed Brigadier-
General, and In December following made
Maj or-General. but again discharged OF
that rank In June, 1901, shortly after pro-
motion to Brigadier-General In the Regular
Army
Both Cen Young and Gen. Sumner served
during the civil war in the Regular Army

continue from northwest and that the
humidity might be blown of shore. The
hope didn't materialize. The moisture
in the superhsated air increased bit and
the wind shifted to west and faded away

not directly due to, the heat. One Of the

lance surgeon said she died from apoplexy
brought on by the heat.
