Attorney-Geuerai Knox Decides mat Hs
10 Not Entitled 20 Ad, ncemeut.


10 Not Entitled 10 Ad,ancemeut.
WASHINGTON, April 2.--Attorney-General
Knox sent to the Navy Department to-day
an adverse opinion on a contention Of Can't
Bowman II. McCaIla. U. s. N, that he was
entitled to be advanced six numbers for
his services In the war with Spain.
Capt. McCalla, while Commander, had
been court-martlalled and sentencsd 10
suspension. During the period Of sus-
pension he lost position in his grade, other
officers being advanced over him. In the
war with Spain he commanded the cruiser
Marblehead and performed work OF the
south coast OF Cuba which won him tho
warm commendAtion Of his superior offsssrs
and the Navy Department. Along with
the othsT war reward nomination. Presi-
dent Mckinley seft 10 he senate for oon-
70 be advanced six numbers on the list OF
his grade. Owing to the Sampson-Schley
controversy these nominations were not
acted upon for two years.
In the meantime, President Mckinley,
" his desire to show appreciation Of Capt.
as exceptionally good. found a means to
reward him. This was done by granting
pardon for the ofense OF which he had
bcen convicted by cortmartial years
DeIOre.
The effect Of this was TO restore to Can't.
McCslla the numbers he had lost, amounting
to six, and he was. therefore, advanced six
numbers In his grade. In the Chinese
uprising OF 1900 he again distinguished
hirnst II, being twioe wounded In the first
campaign against Pc kin and for his services
In China he was advanced three numbers.
Re Gently Capt. McCalla laid before tho
Navy Department an applioa ton for ad-
vancement six numbers for his services in
the Spanish war. Such advancement would
have taken him into the grade OF Rear
Admiral. He contended that his advance
ment through pardon was not O reward for
war services. and that having been nomi-
mated to be advanced six files ON account
Of his record In the war with Spain, an in
justice was done him through the with
crawal OF that nomination after the pardon
WIS granted. He was. therefore, the only
of9oer with the exception OF Rear Ad-
mirals Sampson and Schley) who, having
been regarded as worthy of reward for what
be had done In the Spanish war. had not
received the reward.
The Attorney General holds that there
q no ground for Capt MoCsllas claim that
he rs Hghtfully entitled to advancement.

To Regain tho Palma Trophy.

The International Rifle Match at
Ottawa, Canada, last September ended
with the defeat Of the American team
and the departure for England of the
Palma Trophy. which this year appears
ansong the prizes to be competed for at
. Pisley, the famous English rife range.
The matches Of the British National
: Ri6e Association begin about two months
earlier than our own, and the Palma
Trophy match Is set down for july II.
10 that little time remains in which to
: seieot q team Of good shots. send them
10 England and acclimatize them. As
!. Il u not to be supposed that we shall let
any opportunity OF regaining the trophy
.p4ss without trying to improve it, our
National Rife Association has taken
steps TO enter team there. It has COL
lected $1,000 toward expenses. and asks
contributions Of 5000 moro; and under
its direction practice will begin imme-
diately for places on the Bisley team.
. III the Palma Trophy Is not to become
an English fixture like the Brenton's
Reef and the Cape May cups, carried
across the water in 1885, and still held
there, tho needed money must be given
TO the association.
The conditions OF the match are un-
changed: Teams Of eight men, composed
81 native-born citizens, using the ma
tional military arm Of the country each
team represents, and firing fifteen shots
at each Of three distances, 800, 600 and
1000 yards. The American team last
year was beaten by only ~ points,
ieeding at 800 yards, falling behind
tho British at the second range, and
shooting even with the latter team At the
long range: the match was thus lost
At the second, or ooo-yard, stage. Our
team consisted Of Capt. GRAHAM, Porto
Rico Regiment. and Lieut.. HoLcoMs.
Marine Corps, whose scores were third
and nrst respectively among the twenty
four made in the match. The other
six men were Private Cook, First District |
Of Colunbis Infantry: Capt. MARTIN,

WASHINGTON, April 2.-Spencer F. Eddy
Of Illinois, secretary Of the United States
legation at Constantinople. who lis home
on leave Of absence. called to-day on Secre-
tary Hay. Mr.. Eddy told the Secretary
that the money raised in this country to
pay the ransom demanded for Miss Ellen
NJ. Stone. American missionary, and Nine
Tsilka, had been used by the Macedonian
Revolutionary Committee to buy arms
and ammunition for their adherents, and
that the military activity Of the Turkish
Government was the result Of knowledge
that this had been done.
Mr.. Eddy reported that all American
claims Of q pecuniary nature against Turkey
had been settled and that the questions
remaining to be adjusted were largely
technical. involving mainly the extension
OF more liberal treatment to American
schools in the Sultans possessions.

These Italian immigrants are largely
peasants from the south Of Italy and they
would seem 10 be adapted especially to
the agricultural conditions at the South,
but no systematic efforts have been made
to attract them to those States as an
Offset to negro labor, though at present
the demand for them in Louisiana ID said
to b increasing largely. Tho great
attraction for them. however, Is proba-
bly, to be found in the extensive plans
for railroad development, for tunnelling
and for canal digging which are to be
undertaken in this country during the
next five or ten years. These projected
enterprises seem likely to assure the
continuance Of a volume of immigration
80 large that the total for the present
decade will be the greatest in our history.

from Italy and from Eastern Europe,
and viii add Ave or six millions to the

to exercise 30 important an influence on

Tho New and Great immigration.

e Immigrants are now arriving at this
port In greater volume than ever before.
n is estimated by the bureau in charge
s6f the statistics that the total immigration
yfbr 1908 will reach about 100000. This
would be the largest number received
during single year in our whole history,
exceeding the previous high record, or
7Ss,9o2 in 1882
OF the total population OF New York In
1900, or s,4s7 ,2o2, only 737. AT were native
whites born Of native parents, or ais
:per cent. the percentage in the Manhat-
tan borough being only ie.s. The esti-
msted immigration for the present year,
/. therefore, will exceed the native popu-
.iation Of the entire city. and a. q very
large part Of the immigrants will remain
in New York the percentage Of natives
. promises to grow still less.
The past period when the immigration
was greatest was in the decade from
+, 1850 to 1890, during the first three years
Of which it ggregated l,9i6.es0. For the
first three years of the present decade the
arrivals amounted to 1885, ,233; but II
the present food OF immigration oon-
tinues the total for the decade will ex-
oeed six millions and be larger than
ever before.
or the immigrants now coming. the
great bulk are from Southern and East
en Europe, and the majority from Italy.
The Italian population Of New York,
which must now be toward $50, 900, is in
creasing by this immigration at 90 rapid
rate that it is likely to be somewhere
about half million in 1910. for its natural
increase is also large. This would give
New. York a larger italian population
than Rome itself has and more than any
city Of Italy except Naples.
It 10 possible. however. that hereafter
this Italian immigration will be diverted
from New York in larger measure than
il has been in the past. Out Of about
half q million natives Of Italy in the
United States In 1900 nearly 10 per cent.
were in New York alone. OF tho re-
mainder, all except q very small part |
were In New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
the New England and Western States.
In the Southern States there were then
and there are now very few Of them, with |
the single exception Of Louisiana, as
these census returns show:

The present interesting situation In thu
Balkans recalls to mind the separate ar.
rangement made between Russia and Aus.
tria concerning the affairs OF Macedonia
Previous to the successful revolution OF
Sept. Is. 1885. at Pbilippopolis, by which
the province Of East Roumelia became ar
integral part Of the Princpality Of Bulgaria
the Emperors Of Russia and Austria. and
the German Emperor met at Franzensbad
In Bohemia for the purpose, as was an
nounced at the time. OF harmonizing their
oonnicting interests. They decided not
to regard the uniication OF Bulgaria and
East Roumelia as violation OF the Treaty
OF Berlin. which 1t clearly would be II Of
fected by some OF the parties to II without
the assent Of the others. It was TO be
effected. however. with the sanction of
Russia or not at all.
Austria was formally to annex Bosnia
and Herzegovina, which was equally a
breach OF an international arrangement.
Russia was to unity Bulgaria when It suited
her purpose. and thereupon Austria was to
incorporate Bosnia and herzegovina. The
rights OF Turkey, such as they were, were
to be infringed, and neither France, Eng
land nor Italy was to be consulted. Thus
three parties to an agreement entered into
with three other parties-for the Turk did
not count-agrecd secretly to ignore it's
stipulations and sacrifice the rights Of the
Sultan and act In defiance OF the right or
the possibility Of the other parties ex-
pressing an opinion on the subject.
Though there never was any certainty
on the matter, II was believed that these
secret arrangements leaked out and were
the direct cause Of the action of the Bull
garians. who naturally preferred to ac-
complish tho unifcation Of the separated
parts OF Bulgaria themselves rather than
leave il to outsiders who would have claimed
compensation in some form not agreeable
to them.
The Russian Government, notwithstand-
ing it's assurance to the contrary, always
suspected Prince ALEXANDER of having
secretly connived at the conspiracy that
brought about the revolution in East Rou-
melia; and there is little doubt that the
King MILAN later on was instigated as a
punishment for the upsetting Of the ar
rangements made by the three Emperors
at Franzensbad. 1t was at the bottom Of
the misfortunes that subsequently befell
the unfortunate Prince ALEXANDER and
caused him to end his life In exile. As
forewarned b to be forearmed, the same
Powers that were represented at Franzens-
bad have. 1t would seem. taken all the pre-
cautions to prevent repetition Of the coup
d'etat OF September, 1885; and Prince FER
DINANp is away from Sofia at Euxinograd
on the shores Of the Black Sea rejecting,
no doubt. on the fate Of his predecessor, !
and wondering whether the future has any
thing In store that may compensate him
for having given up the easier life OF an
oficer Of Hungarian Hussars
