secretary Morton of the Navy Recon-
mends Another Official.


Secretary Morton has written a letter to
the chairman of the House naval commit
Tee advocating the creation of the office
of assistant judge advocate general of tbe
navy with the rank, pay and allowances
OF commander. The duties of the office
are now performed most acceptably by Mr.
Edwin p. Hanna, solicitor of the NAVY
Department, and it is understood that the
legislation suggested is intended as a recog-
milton of his long and faithful services to
the government
In his letter to the chairman of the naval
committee Secretary Morton SAYS:
Under existing laws (act of February 2
I9ol) the judge advocate generals depart
menl-Q1 the army consists of the following
omcers: One judge advocate general with
the rank of brigadier general: two Judge
advocates, with the rank of colonel: three
judge advocates with the rank of lieuten-
ant colonel; six judge advocates with the
rank of major. And for each geogra phicaI
department or tactical division of troons
not provided with judge advocates from the
list OF officers holding permanent commits
sions in the Judge advocate generals de-
partment, one acting judge advocate. with
the rank, pay and allowances of a captain
mounted.
In the corresponding branch of the
navy existing law provides but one officer
judge advocate general of the navy. with
the rank and highest pay of a captain in
the navy, or the rank. pay and allowances
of colonel in the marine corps as the
case may be, appointed under the provisions
of an act passed June s, 1880, at time
when the navy was small and inactive
Since that act was passed-a period of
twenty-four years-nothing has been done
to strengthen the judge advocate generals
department except to provide solicitor at
salary of $500 per year. In the mean
time an enormous increase of business
which will be permanent has taken place
Il believe that an additional officer is
needed in this branch of the service and
have therefore the honor to recommend
that immediate provision be made there
for.
'Inasmuch as the assistant to the judge
advocate. general should be learned in the
civil we'll as in the naval law, it is sug-
gested that the Presidents power of selec-
tion in making the appointment be left un-
restricted.
1.-The draft of clause prepared in ac-
cordance with this recommendation is here
with submitted for the consideration of the
committee, with the recommendation that
it be inserted in the act making appropria-
tiOns for the naval service"

TARIFF REVISION
SENTIMENT OF CONGRESS TO BE
MADE KNOWN TO PRESIDENT.

When the next conference between the
President and the Congress leaders takes
place definite and accurate information will
be at hand relative to the actual sentiment
of the republicans in Congress upon the
subject of tariff revision and the extra ses-
sion. This information will nave been OBJ
tanned either through a caucus declaration
or as the consensus of opinion expressed in
some other way.
The President will be advised of the
sentiment of Congress upon these questions.
1t will then remain for him to determine
whether the Congress reflects the sentiment
and wishes of the country at large, and
upon him will rest the responsibility of fore
ing tariff revision against the expression of
Congress- should it be opposed to it.
The<"stand pat'' element in Congress is
determined that revision shall not be en-
tered upon unless it is indorsed overwhelm-
ingly by the party. The men who are op-
posed to revision are determined that tar
iff revision shall not be taken up without
the responsibility being placed upon respon-
sible shoulders. These men say that there
has been a great deal Of generalization in
this talk of tariff revision. The President
has brought the matter to point where it
means business. The stand-patters insist
that there shall be count of noses in
the House and Senate, and that men must
come to the front and state definitely their
position At the conference with the Presf-
dent the other day only the most general
statement was made as to the prevalence
of revision sentiment in the House and
Senate. The assertion that there was pre-
ponderance of tariff revision sentiment was
not sustained by the views of some of those
present and the President himself could not
learn from the men with whom he talked
that day that Congress was of a mind that
the tariff should be revised.
The pending efforts in the direction of as
certaining the real sentiment in the repub-
lican party will bring results which will
acquaint the President with the actual
facts Within the next few days there is
to be a complete census of the republican
party in Congress to determine the strength
of tariff revision sentiment.

WITTE SEES THE CZAR
PROBABLE SUCCESSOR OF MIRSKY
TALKS WITH EMPEROR.

ST. PETERSBURG, January 10.-The re-
port that Interior Minister Sviantopolk-
Mirskys resignation has been accepted and
cessor is not confirmed and seems to have
grown out of the prevailing opinion that
such is likely to be the ultimate issue Of
the contest waging over the question of re-
forms, coupled with the fact that M. Witte
had another long audience of Emperor
Nicholas yesterday.
Prince Sviatopolk- -Mirsky was present to-
day at the meeting of the committee of
ministers which is considering the mani
festo reforms and this in itself refutes the
statement that he Is already out of office.
How long the present situation will last It
is, however, hazardous to predict.
No Final Decision Now.
Possibly some weeks may elapse before
Prince Syiatopolk- Mirsky's final decision
is reached. Some of his friends are of the
opinion that he will continue in Office until
the committee of ministers completes its
consideration of certain points in which the
minister is especially interested, one of
which is question relating to the press
NJ. Yermoloff, the minister Of agriculture,
In an interview, warned the public not to
be too precipitate. He said no doubt the
time had come for reforms, but in discuss
ing what was necessary they must bear In
mind what was possible.
The whole question was so intricate that
1t was impossible to do everything at once.
Russia being an agricultural country, the
of the peasants. on which the manifesto
lays particular stress. The first thing WAS
to place the peasants on an equality with
the other classes before the law.

IMMIGRATION OFFICERS
TO BE PLACED IN THE CLASSIFIED
SERVICE.

When the President signsthe order plac-
ing all of the inspectors of immigration un-
der the classified service it will be the end
of the worriment which has been long a
grievous complaint of the bureau of immi-
grafton. There are about $50 of these in
spectors, and they are the last Of the en-
pioyes of the bureau who have not been
under the protection Of the civil service.
Heretofore it has been within the power
of the commissioner general, acting under
instructions of the Secretary of Commerce
and Labor, to make appointments to that
branch Of the service as fast as places could
be legitimately found or the men so en-
ployed. With the signing efAthe executive
order this will cease, and more inspec-
tors will be taken into the service save by
the regular route via the civil service COM
mission.

THE PANAMA RAILROAD,
Resolution Of Investigation to Be Re
ported Favorably.

The House committee on interstate and
foreign commerce today decided to report
favorably to the House the resolution intro
duced by Representative Shackleford of
Missouri, calling for an investigation of the
affairs Of the Panama railroad.
The resolution directs the committee OIL
interstate and foreign commerce to investi-
gate the operation. management and condi-
ton of the railroad, and all it's franchises
and property, on the ground that the United
States now owns more than 80 per cent OF
the capital stock of the road, and it is
therefore. expedient that Congress should
have full knowledge of it's affairs.
The committee is empowered to examine
all books, papers and records of the Pan
anna railroad and to make the inquiry as
exhaustive as it sees fit.

responsibility rests upon the government
to see that nothing in the way of defensive

rich in mineral and other resources and are
