Takio, Oct. "A telegram from Rir-
oshima says that the fire was still
burning. In addition TO the 20 build.
ings containing clothes and provis-
ions, seven other filed with fodder

ings were constructed of light mate
rial they contained an enormous
amount of stored goods and the struc-
lures being Of infiammable nature the
flames were difficult to extinguish,
despite the desperate efforts Of the
troops. The fire was discovered at 1

Enlisted Men In the Army Now
Have Every Chance to Put
Away Money.
PAYMASTER GENERALS REPORT.
During the Past Year the Amount
Placed on Deposit by the Men
Was S1.531. .O2O.
The Amount Expended on Account Of
the Pay Of the United States
Army During the Year
Was $31,361,132.

Washington, Oct. 2.-The report of
Francis A. s. Dodge, the paymaster
general of the army, for the past fis-
cal year points out that the enlisted
men have now every chance to put
away money from their own savings
by the deposit system which guaran-
tees them absolute safety. During the
year the amount deposited by the men
was s1,531,O2o, making the total
amount since the establishment Of the
system $2S294,S26.
Gen. Dodge states that the present
law against permanent appointments
In the stan corps and departments will
result In course of time in all the
grades In the pay department being
filled by officers detailed from the line.
He recommends that the law be
amended so as to limit details to va.
cancies occurring in the grade Of cap
tain, for which captains of the line
should be selected, as now. and that
all grades above captain should be
made permanent appointments.
The amount expended on account Of
the pay of the army during the year
was S31, 1861 1872.
The last complete pay schedule for
the army was passed b. congress 35
years ago and the report contends that
it Is not sufficient for the demands of
our times. The fact that the army is
underpaid, the report adds, makes II
impossible to recruit out of such
classes as might be wished. That
economy has been the watchword for
the army for the last 20 years, Gen.
Dodge says, is shown by the fact that
whereas the cost per capita for Off
GERS and men in 1875 was $992, it was
during this year 1887.
