Relief has been called in question it is
proper to state that the reliance Of the
line officers is upon provision in sec
ton Z of the naval personnel act of
March 3, 1899. That section, among
other things. was designed to clear up
a doubt that existed as to the right OF
a staff officer to assume the title of q
line officer of corresponding grade

and length of service.
The Law in the Case.
Up to that date staff officers had en-
joyed what was called relative rank, y
with which they were not satisfied; so
in section the word relative" was
struck out. SO that all sections of the
revised statutes which, in defining the
rank Of officers or positions in the
tive rank were amended so as to read
"the rank off, TO this provision the
following important qualification was
attached: 'But officers whose rank is
so defined shall not be entitled, in
virtue of their rank, to command in the
line or in other staff corps"
Two interpretations Thereof.

that no surgeon or engineer Gf there

for their part, hold that this act does
not in any sense abridge any priv
iIege of rank formerly enjoyed by Il
staff officer.

name was William Lester, and that the
medals were his wife's property. Still

were surprised when a handsome, WE'LL
gowned woman responded.
She at first denied that she was Mrs.
Wood. Later, when confronted by her
