Maj.-Gen. Leonard Wood. command

seem to be anxious to exchange that
more or less arduous post for the easier
one at Governors Island, N. Y The
President Is willing. IL not eager, to give
his old friend command of the Atlantic
Division. with headquarters at the New
York Harbor fort, but, so far, the for
nIer Army Surgeon has not indicated
any desire to take that assignment
which, incidentally, Is regarded as the
best in the service. His friends say
that he will remain in the Philippines
at least a year longer, because he de-
sires to see as much active service rs
possible, and at present the Philippines
Station affords far greater opportunities
in that direction than any other. AL
ready Gen. Wood has had longer for
eign service than any other officer in
the Army. In Cuba during the Spanish
war, he afterWard was made Governor
General of the island, and acted in that
capacity until the American evacuation
in. 1902. After coming here and wind
ing up the Office work connected with
the Governor-Generalship he started

specialists, bony growth having ap-
peared on his skull as result of an in
jury received when, rising from his
desk one day, he struck his head against
chandelier. Gen. Wood Is not the most
popular officer in the Army. His un-
precedented promotion over the heads
of many older officers has caused a
feeling of resentment to grow up against
him. which is not lessened by the close
friendship between him and the Presi-
dent. A common designation for him is
"Roosevelts pei"
There are rumors of nasty scandal
in The Navy Department, but it is hoped
that IL will blow over. 1t is charged
against Commander Winslow, u. S. NJ.
and one of the wealthiest officers in the
Navy, that he has been caught red

champagne, cigars. and bric-;.-brac

Caution run mad becomes all but a
crime. Word comes to the Agricultural
Department that DR.. w. H. Brumby.
State Health officer of Texas has de-
clared quarantine against tuberculosis
and consumption. and that these dis
eases are classed with yellow fever and
smallpox. People afflicted with any of
these diseases will be barred from en-
tering the State. according to the Texas
health officer What is to become of
those poor unfortunates on whom the
hand OF disease is laid? They must go
somewhere. 1t is like condemning them
to death TO keep them in the East
when the dry. th-giving climate Of
New Mexico and Texas is what they
really should have. 1t is unbelievable
health of a great big State like Texas.
and 1t is unchristian to make such laws.
1t is all right to wrap the Flag
around you. boys, and declare you are
a citizen of the United States. but when
men voluntarily leave their country for
half Il lille time and then claim immun-
ity from the laws of the country in
which they have spent half lifetime
1t is different.
On account, 1t is said, of their re-
fusai to submit to that peculiar Latin
American institution, known as the
forced loan" George and Edward
MoisSant, who claim to be American
citizens, are imprisoned at San Saliva
dor. and the State Department Satur-
day cablod an inquiry to Minister Merry
at that city to investigate the case.
The question of the citizenship be-
comes of Importance, because If they
are not native, but naturaliZed citizens
of America. they may have lost that cit
iZenship under the provision of an act
of last Congress.
The press reports Indicate that the
Moissants have, like so many Americans
long residents in Central America, be-
come involved in the internal politics
of Salvador. and, incidentally, it is
charged that they were connected with
