Queer Angles to Taft's Action
IN Pushing Forward Man
Senate Turned Down

The recess appointment" OF Major
Beecher B. Ray, the army paymaster
TO be lieutenant colonel. which was
made yesterday by President Taft
has caused all sorts of comment in
service circles here. There are some
queer angles to the proposition, and
a fair chance that should the Senate
sgain refuse to confirm the nomina
tion at the next session. Colonel Ray
would find himself legislated out oil
the army.
The law says that there shall be sc
many officers of each grade in the
pay department. II President Taft
appoints some officer a major, vice
Ray, and the Senate does not confirm
the latter's promotion, then he would
be q major, but an extra number in
the grade, in which case he would be
legislated out of the army. The only
safe course for the President to fol
low would be to leave the vacant ma,
jority untitled. in which event Colonel
Ray could step back to his old grade
II the Senate refused to let bygones
be bygones.
There is another angle to the stu
ation. however, which turns up with
the consolidation Of pay, quartermas
ters and subsistance departments
carried in the recent army appropria
ton bill. Colonel Ray is no longer
IA the pay department, but is an of
ficer in the new quartermaster' s
corps. With comparatively few years

.INSURRECI'ION

That the SO-callsQ British claims
arising out Of the insurrection against
the Republic Of Hawaii in 1895 are ap-
preaching hearing before The Hague
Tribunal, to which, it was reported
some time ago, they had been referred
by the United States and Great Brit

structions received By Thomas Har-
rington, acting British consul here,
within the last few days, to bring all
the data relating to the claims up to
date.
Resisted ~ the Republic of Hawaii
to the last, the claims were part of
unfinished business passed on TO the
United States at annexation.
Within the past few days it has been
rumored that Acting Consul Harring-
ton was looking up information re-
garding the heirs OF such claimants
as are dead. Mr.. Harrington, on be
ing questioned about tie matter, ad-
mitted what has just been stated and
more. He said:

OHIO FARMERS UNLUCKY
Crops Late and Small and It's 8 Bad
 Year All Around.

Cleveland, O., May 1s-The Ohio farmer is struggling with his worst year, according to Charles E.. Thorne, Director of the Ohio State Agricul- turaI Experiment Station in Wooster, and a foremost authority on crop conditions.
 The severe Winter. Spring frosts, and present low temperature, with continued rains, have done disastrous work to grains, fruits, and vegetables. Flat lands-thousands and thousands of acres-are now under water. More thousands of acres are so wet and soEgy that they cannot be plowed and planted. Consequently, planting is late, great handicap against crops maturing at regular harvest time.
 ''The planting of corn Is greatly hindered and the acreage will be largely reduced" said Director Thorne today. Ohio win reap one of the poorest crops of wheat in it's history. The crop at best will be only 20 per cent of normal"
