OPPOSED TO NEW TITLE.
Adjutant General Corbin Thinks Title
of Military Secretary Inappropriate.

Major Gen. Henry c. Corbin, command
Ing the Philippines division, the only lad
jutant general in the army, has made a
VIGOROUS protest to the War Department
against the substitution of the term Mill
tary Secretary for the time honored title
Of, "Adjutant General He says the change
has not met the appreciation of the SER
vice and docs violence to the long stand
ing habits of the army"
Continuing, he says: The officers i'm
mediately concerned are, and will continue
to be, adjutants to general officers, or adju-
tants general, save possibly the few who
are assigned to duty virtually as military
secretaries to the Secretary of War. The
designation seems to imply relation be-
tween two individuals, one of whom is a
existing between two officers of the army.
1t seems out of place that a secretary
should by his sign manual establish the
official character of an order given by an
army officer.
The proper sequence would mean that
we should substitute the title of military
secretary for that of adjutant OF regiments.
No other country in the world nor any
state OF the Union, Is without an adjutant
general. 1t was the designation given by
Washington and has continued since.
THE field service regulations, published
February 1, 1905 provide for adjutants gen.
and brigades. 1t is recognized that these
are all field organiza Ztions. But the act OF
April %, 1904, provides that the office OF
adjutant general once vacant shall not be
filled; and that of March 2. 1905. that the
desis nation of assistant adjutant general
shall cease. Hence these regulations pro-
vide for a class of officers not known to
the law. 1t is recommended that the former
designation of the department be resumed,
as in every particular the duties of the
military secretary's department are by law
those of the former adjutant generals de-
partment. The transfer of the officers who
accepted commissions in the adjutant gen
erals department Is without precedent in
the history of the army. 1t is but Justice
to these that the original designation be
restored"

YEARS AGO
NOW AFFLICTED
Hager, of Chesapeake
City, Suffered No Ill Effects
Until Recently
He TOOK PASIEUR TREATMENT

Henry Hager, butcher OF
Chesapeake City, Maryland, who nine
years ago was bitten by mad dog
while protecting a young woman who
was attacked at that place, is now suf-
fering from an ailment which is believ-
ed to be an outcome. The young
woman, who is now employed at the
Middletown shirt factory, escaped in
jury, the dog turning upon her protec-
tor and biting him on the leg.
Mr.. Hager was treated at the
Pasteur Institute in New York and suf-
fered no i'll effects until recently. Then
the veins in his leg began to pain him
and the ailment became so serious that
he was compelled to so to the jefferson
Hospital in Philadelphia, for treatment.
He has been at the hospital twice with
in the past three weeks and is also be-
ing treated by a physician at Chesa-
peake City.
1t was reported that he was suffer-
ing from hydrophobia, but when The
Evening Journal communicated with
chesapeake City to-day this rumor was
dispelled. The ahiiction is varicose
veins Much interest is being taken in
the case because Of the incidents sur

ROE WAS NOT RELEASED
WITHOUT PAYING FINE
Judge Cochran Denies Pub
lished Story-Over $40
Was Paid

Judge Edwin r. Cochran today denied
the story published in morning news
paper TO the effect that Alfred Roe,
sailor OF the battleship Massachusetts,
was released yesterday from custody
without serving day in prison or paying
a dollar fine afterl being fined $50 and
sentencedto six months Imprisonment for
assaulting Harry f. Firth on Friday night
last.
Yesterday morning Judge Cochran re-
opened Roe's case and remitted the i'm
prisonment sentence but allowed the fine
10 stand. The prisoners friends then
started out to get the amount of the fine
and costs together and according TO Judge
Cochran only succeeded in collecting
something over $40 The Judge said he
was appealed TO shortly before o'clock,
the time for sending prisoners from the
police station TO the worlShouse and the
situation explained TO him.
He referred Roe's friends 10 Clerk of
Court Sidney Winchester and instructed
the iatter TO accept the amount collected
by them and ordered Roe's release.
House Sergeant James Tucker said to-
day that he had not received the money
paid over to Clerk Winchester and further
stated that it might have been paid to
the latter without him knowing anything
about it, Judge Cochran contends that
Clerk Winchester has right under the
law to accept fines and says that until a
few years ago all fines and costs had to
be paid TO the clerk Of court.
