Naval Officer Dies in Poverty.

Washington, Jan. l3.-The fact
that Commander II III. Hosley, who
died suddenly in New York recent
ly, was practically without means
and left a family unproyided for, has
led his friends in the navy to in
itiate movement to secure from
congress special pension for his
widow and family.
A small pension of $50 per month
would, 1t Is held, be utterly made
quate in tSis case either to meet the
needs of the family or to constitute
anything like a fitting recognition
of the services of the deceased Off
Ger to his country. The basis oi
this statement is the fact that in
navigating the great dry dock Dew
ey three-quarters of the distance
around the globe and mooring IL
safely in Subig bay, Commander Hos
ley performed what was without
doubt the most remarkable feat of
seamanship in this generation.
