HOLDS up APPOINTMENTS.
Action on Army Nominations Delayed
hy the Senate.

Action on Army NOMINATIONS Oedyes
by the Senate.
Washington, Dec. 22.-Owing to a
DISPUTE over legal points involved the
senate yesterday refused to confirm
nomination Of Brigadier George b.
Davis to be judge advocate general
and Brigadier General William Crozier
to he chief ordinance of the army, both
to succeed themselves, until after the
holidays. when the senators will have
time to look UP the laws more thor
oughly.
The nominations were considered in
executive session of the senate yester-
day. but action was postponed. Sen
ator Warren, chairman of the commit
tee on military affairs, presented a
letter from Secretary of War Taft ex-
planning what had been termed legal
technicality against these officers sue
caefine themselves in the detail named
in the nominations.
At a recent meeting of the commit
tee on military affairs it was stated by
several members that the law seemed
to prohibit officers from accepting
second four year detail of this charac-
ter until they had again served IN the
line for three years. A dispute IN the
committee prevented confirmation, and
Chairman Warren called upon Secre-
tary Taft for his views, which. from
the letter read yesterday, appear to
Justify the new appointments
In the letter to Senator Warren Sec
retary Taft answers affirmatively the
questions as to whether these officers
commissions should date from 1901, the
date in each case being that when the
officers were originally appointed
chiefs of the judge advocates depart
ment and the ordinance departme emit.
AS to General Davis the secretary
holds the rank of an appointee relates
back to the date Of the vacancy In the
office to which the nomination is made.
In each case however, the secretary
saws it is the clear intention of the
army reorganization act of 1901 that
only officers below the rank of colonel
shall be ineligible to reappointmen TOR
continuous staff service and that In
the case Of heads Of bureaus there
fs no prohibition whatever as to reap
pointment.
Senator Pettus asked that the nomi-
nations go over until he had had an
opportunity to examine the secretarys
statement.
The nomination Of members Of the
asthmian canal commission, conflrma-
tions of which were reconsidered by
the senate on yesterday, were again
referred to the committee on inter-
oceanic canals.
