nessee.
(From the Chattanooga Times.)

An interesting story in which a little
girl and Gen. Grant played the con-
spicuous parts was told by one of the
Confederate veterans that was at the
Reunion in Nashville during the CEN
tennial year.
He was one of the younger soldiers
that went out to fight for his country
Being dangerously wounded, he was
taken home on parole. Soon after his
return Gen. Grant appeared upon the
scene, and took up his headquarters in
the old Southern mansion.
The family becoming alarmed for
the safety of the boy, he was with
much difficulty hidden under the house,
the intervening space between the
ground and the floor being very mar
row. Even then their fears We're not
lessened, for to their anxious ears every
groan beneath was fearfully audible.
So an older sister, to relieve the situa-
ion. sat at the piano and played and
sang all thru the day. The intense
strain of the passing hours growing
monotonous to the child of the house,
hold, she decided to take affairs into
her own hands without any consulta-
ton.
AS Gen. Grant sat in his room late
in the afternoon there came soft tap
at his door. In answer to his invitation
to enter there appeared a demure lit

pened frequently that medical officers
aboard vessels on recruiting cruises
have been ordered to report to Boat
sWains, who are non-commissioned Off
GERS of the line. There are many re-
cruiting stations scattered over the
country, and the principal stations in
the large cities are in charge of a line
officer, often only. an Ensign or a Lieu
tenant. But a medical officer, often of
much higher rank than the line officer,
is likewise attached to each station.
The officers, who shiver at the thought
of having a Doctor exercising supreme
say it is not improbable that
officers of their branch on recruiting
duty will have to take orders eventual
ly from the staff men.
And so the war for titles and authori-
ty proceeds If Congress takes hand,

GEN. JOHN POPE.
Grateful for The National Tribune's
Defense of Him.

Editor National Tribune: The thoro
honest and courageous ability as a civil
war historian, with such magnetic di-
rection of which you are describing the
second battle of Bull Run, part of the
splendid Army of the Potomac which
Gen. John Pope commanded, is indeed
highly interesting to those of us of the
rank and file who served in the Army
of the Mississippi, which Pope COM
manded so successfully.
At this late day you have extended
and honored the memory of Pope as a
great captain, who upon all occasions
did his duty with an aggressiveness that
had the confidence, respect and admira-
ton of the men he commanded while
he was with us. Grant, Sherman, Sher-
idan, Napoleon, Frederick the Great
nor Cesar could not possibly have gained
victory over the Army of Northern Vir-
ginia, commanded by such able Cen
erals as Lee, Jackson and Longstreet,
when Gems. Mcclellan, Gibbon and
Fitz-John Porter did all in their power
to defeat the plans of Pope, thereby
defeating and sacrificing the officers and
splendid, gallant men who struggled
and fought so bravely in the campaign
which Pope conducted.
Gen. John Pope was every inch a
great. fearless, competent, able Gener-
al. He was no flatterer nor sycophant,
but soldier who was every inch n
loyal patriot for the Union, one whose
mind was permeated with loyal obedi-
ence to his superiors.
Gen. John Pope, after his retirement
returned to st. Louis a broken-hearted
man. He Joined Ransom Post, was an
attendant at its meetings. and was
buried in Belfountaine Cemetery by the
Post. He was devoted, true comrade
of the Grand Army of the Republic as
long as he lived. All honor to you,
comrade editor. for so generously, so
fairly writing the history of the second
battle of Bull Run. You have placed
Gen. Pope's name among the great
military captains of the Union army.
Had Pope been supported with the
same thoroness he was by the officers
and army he commanded of the Mis-
sissippi from the time he was in COM
mand at Sedalia and OttervilIe, when
he, in the severe Winter of 1861, can
tured 1900 rebels; then in his New
Madrid and Island No. 10 campaigns,
where he was with us at the front,
night and day, never Two miles in the
rear" where we captured the entire
Confederate forces commanded by Gen.
McCowen, amounting to about 5000;
then when he commanded the Left
Wing of the grand parade siege of
Corinth," in May, 1862, Gen. Pope's
men were farther to the front and skir-
mishing daily; then the Center or Right
Wing of the finest army ever under the
command of any one man, Halleck, up
to that time.
Gen. Pope lies at rest within 500 feet
OF Gen. VIM. T. Sherman, and hun
dreds of the comrades, who did their
duty like Pope as patriotic and loyal
American citizens, are sleeping in peace

partment Commander of Missouri, st.

walked gravely up before him, and,
looking him in the face, said:
I've got something to tell you"
You have? 1 shall be very glad
to hear it."
well, before I tell you, you've got
to promise that you'll never, never tell.
Do you declare and cross your heart
and wish you may die in a minute if
you ever, ever telr?"
The General preserved his dignity
and answered. "Yes"
"Well, then do it," and he repeated
the words after her and made the
movements as she directed. Then there
came a whisper.

house; he's out there with the bugs
and rats, and they're going to eat him

AS result of the disclosure the mas
ter of the house, meeting the General
in the hallway somewhat later, was
startled by this speech being addressed
to him:

WEARING TITLES.
The Outbreak Between Line and Staff
Had Been Gathering Head for Weeks.

The preparations for the final clash
between line and staff had been on for
weeks. These had been made to a fine
ness, far beyond the immediate ques-
ton of whether a Navy doctor should
command a Navy ship. Army authori-
ties were appealed to for the law and
precedents by which Paymasters, Chap
lains, Doctors and others We're called
Lieutenant" Captain" Major"
Colonel or General" as their rank
might warrant, both officially and COL
l0quially. AS a matter of fact, the staff
officers of the Army, except Doctors
have been allowed to wear the precious
titles almost ever since the Army was
organized. For long while officers of
the Army Medical Corps had to be
content with plain Doctor" but that
has now been done away with An
Army Surgeon is known by the same
military titles, for the respective grades
of rank, as an Army officer of the fight
ing line.
Ali this information was marshalled
by the staff officers of the Navy, who
have smarted under the. indignity, as
they view it, of being addressed simply
as "Paymaster," chaplain and Doc
tor" 1t was only few years ago that
Rear-Admiral Upshur, one of the Oldest
of the retired officers in Washington
wrote a letter to Charles J. Bonaparte,
then Secretary of the Navy, protesting
because Peter c. Asserson, a retired Of
fcer of the Civil Engineer Corps, was
using Admiral on his visiting cards
in Washington society. There was a
prolonged pow-wow over this COM
munication, with the result that the
staff officers. active and retired, were
virtually forbidden to sport those titles
The incident did not deter Admiral
Rixey, as Chief of the Bureau of Medi-
cine and Surgery, from Haunting his
title. AS head of Navy Bureau the
law gives him salary of $1,000 and
certain of the perquisites of q Rear
Admiral of the Navy. Other Bureau
Chiefs, who have a telephone in their
residences, enter their names in the
telephone books as plain citizens "Ad-
miral p. NJ. Rixey," however, is the
designation the head of the Medical
Bureau gives himself, and there is no
qualification even to show that he is a
Rear-Admiral in relative rank. The
only other Admiral in the telephone
book of the officers Immediately con-
nected with the Department is Admiral
George Dewey" who is an Admiral of
the highest possible rank.
The Army officers are enjoying the
plight of their brother officers i'm
They rejoice in the fact that
over the authority that a staff officer
could exercise was settled long ago.
The Navy, on the other hand, fears
that it's troubles are far from being
settled. 1t is claimed that if the prin-
ciple established in the case of the !

logical conclusion medical officers will

Our First Need.
"What is needed is quite clear. The
Secretary of the Navy, being a civilian,
generally with short tenure of office,
must have expert advisers. There must
be board behind him whose opinion he
is legally authorized by Congress to ac-
cept. This board, in the first place,
must know exactly the views of the
actual sea-going service; in the second
place, it must have no hand itself in
carrying out the details of its own ad-
vice; it must delegate this to others.
Every country in the world but ours
has a body of this kind at the head of
its navy. and it is this which President
Roosevelt in 1903 recommended that
Congress provide for ours.
There is, and always will be from
interested quarters. opposition to an
advisory board of this kind. But it
must come, for it is the only reasonable
solution of our great and difficult prob
lem. There must be in our Navy some
general expert board, made up of men
with ample experience in sea-going SER
vice, in which is centered responsibility
for advising the Secretary on all mat
ters pertaining to the efficiency of the
Navy. 1t will see that the requests for
by the sea-going officers

will present the requirements demand
ed for new fighting ships to the Secre
tary, who will see that the Bureaus

and it will see that our fleet is properly
drilled for battle. 1t will not bring
about tho millennium, but it will bring
about a reasonable efficiency of equip
ment and preparation for war, and

equality with foreigners"

A LINE And STAFF FIGHT.

On top of the attack on the construc-
ton, equipment and administration of
the United States Navy comes a still
bitterer attack upon the personnel.
This sensation was sprung the day
before Christmas when Rear-Admiral
William II. Brownson resigned the Of
flee of Chief of the Bureau of Naviga-
ton. which is unquestionably the most
important of the Bureau offices in the
whole Naval Establishment 1t is stated
that this resignation was rendered some
time ago. but that the President hesi-
tated to make the resignation public,
and has not even yet given publicity to
the letter in which Admiral Brownson
rendered it.
The President accepted the resigna-
ton on Christmas Day, TO take effect at
once, and at the same time directed
that Admiral Brownson transfer his of
flee and all its effects to Capt. Cameron
MGR. Winslow, Assistant Chief of the
Bureau, until his successor should be
appointed. 1t is stated that the Presi-
dent has not designated or appointed
Commander Winslow Chief of the Bu-
reau, and that all of his mail is signed
Acting Chief"
Just what all this ruction in the Navy
Department means nobody seems able
to state. But it is fact that not since
the days preceding the personnel law
10 years ago, has the feeling between
line and staff of the Navy been so acute
as it is now, and it is alleged that the
crux of the whole thing is that Admiral
Brownson fatty refused to transmit or
ders from his superior officer the Presi-
dent of the United States, assigning
Naval Surgeon to command q vessel in
the Navy.
To grow reminiscent, this "line and
STAFF fight has been brewing for at
least decade, and one might almost
say that il has been the cause of in
Vulnerable rows in the Navy Depart
ment ever since its establishment. Ten
years ago, when President Roosevelt
was then Assistant Secretary of the
Navy and the personnel bill was before
Congress, it was thought that he had
some hand in the construction of the
bill. He certainly acted the part OF
pacifcator, and did much in bringing
the warning factions together in support
of the legislation which has served to
maintain a makeshift peace between
the two factions in the Navy. That il
was only makeshift is proven by the
present outburst.
Admiral BrOwnsOn.
The story of the resignation of Ad-
miral Brownson has not been told in
detail, nor have the facts been gathered
from any one particular source, but
enough facts are known to show that
the old naval officer feels that his rights
have been infringed upon in an unwar-
rantable manner, and that he has been
placed in a position to receive certain
Sights from the President over his own
