ination in February next have been
received thus far. and inasmuch as the
chief of the quartermaster corps
states that the eligible list of men
who successfully passed the examin-
atoms last year will probably be ex-
hausted prior to the date of the next
examination, those who successfully
Pass the coming examination are as
sured of the appointment without de-
lay. The chief Of the quartermaster
department has stated further that he
would like very much to receive at
least 200 additional applications from
soldiers &c the line OF the army who
have the required non-commissioned
service, and whose character and edu.
cation are such as fit them to take
charge Of public property and to act
as clerks and assistants to post and
other quartermasters! The new re-
ouirements for the position since the
consolidation Of the two departments
are that the applicant be sergeant.
of the line; that he shall have hail
three years service as a non-commfs-
stoned officer, and that he shall hare
had five years service. The only re,
lief for the two unsuccessful applf
cants seems to be a transfer back to
the line.

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
SCHoFIELDz BARRACKS, Nov. %.
There are two sergsants OF the
quartermaster corps here whose hopes
Of being designated to take the ex-
animation for quartermaster sergeant,
quarter1naster corps, have been
bhghted by the refusal of the war de-
partment to consider any candidate
not a non-commissioned officer of the
line of the army. The quartermaster
gergeants, quartermaster corps are
still members of the post non-commis-
stoned staff, as they were before the
consolidation of the commissary and
/ quartermaster departments into the
corps, and the regulations for appoint
ment have not been changed and in
view of the refusal of the war depart
ment to consider these applications,
the regulation will probably continue
to read as before.
i While the law creating the grade of
quartermaster sergeant contemplated
the better preservation OF public
property at posts, there was also
further consideration-thato of offering
reward to faithful and well-tried en-
listed men OF the line eligible for APP
pointment, thus giving encouragement
to deserving soldiers Of the line tol
hope for substantial promotion. The
sergeants of the quarternaster corps
are quite a distinct grade and may be
employed as clerks, engineers and
various other trades and lines of work
in the corps, but are always junior
to the quartermaster sergeants. Both
of these non-commissioned officers
who made application to take the ex-
animation are qualified men and
doubtless transferred from the line to
the staff corps without considering
that the transfer would render them
Ineligible. The irony of these cases
is that only 80 of the applications from
soldiers of the line to take the exam

WASHINGTON NOTES

Changes In the personnel of the
Japanese embassy here, involving the
transfer to the embassy in London
of X. Shidehara, counselor, and Ma
gakage Okabe, fattache, of the Wash
ington embassy, is a result of the re-
cent assassination of Mr.. Abe, the di-
rector of political affairs. Mr.. Koike,
counselor of the embassy at London,
was recalled to Toxic and appointed
director to succeed Mr.. Abe. He will
be succeeded by Mr. Shidehara. As
the London embassy ranks first in
the Japanese foreign service, that
puts Mr. Shidehara in line for imme-
date promotion to the rank of min
lister. =:
Yagoro Miuera, at present first sec
rotary of the embassy at Paris, who
will succeed Mr.. Shidehara as coun.
selor here, has had much diplomatic
experience In European courts, has
paid several visits to this country
and speaks English fiuently.

BIG TRAVEL HERE
DURINGFAIR YEAR

The Promotion Committee has
come to realize that, If the various
steamship lines including Honolulu do
not make arrangements to increase
their facilities, that thousands OF tour
lists will be unable to come to Ha-
wall following the 1915 exposition, and
at a meeting of the organization yes
rerday afternoon. Secretary H. P.
Wood was authorized to address CON-
munications TO the heads of each OF
these companies asking them to take
an interest In the matter and make
preparations at once to enlarge their
scoue iof tourist handling.
Following his report on the outlook
for tourist travel to Hawaii during the
coming year, Secretary Wood said
that. through the results Of the great
advertising campaign which the com.
mittee would carry on in San Fran,
cisco during the exposition, that thou.
sands Of people would want to visit
these islands after they had concluded
their trip to the fair.
One Of the most interesting com
munications read was that from
Lloyd Childs, who is touring the
mainland with a troupe of Hawaiian
singers, and giving lectures and mo-
ton picture shows here and there.
Childs said that the troupe recently
gave a performance at Dubuque, Iowa,
which was attended by more than 1000
persons, and that one Of the latest
films showing the volcano of Kilauea
held the audience in the theatre until
nearly midnight.
Another feature which the commit
tee is soon to adopt will be in the
form of small cards, having printed
upon them the address of the CON-
mittee's branch office in San Fran
cisco. These will be distributed among
oil departing passengers a few days
before the steamer sails from Homo
lulu, and the people will be urged to
make use of the office as often as
convenient. Departing passengers
from Honolulu will also be urged to
call at the rooms Of the committee
and receive packages of literature for
distribution among their friends on
the mainland or other places. The of.
fer of Arthur F.. Wall to start fern
cry at his residence, to be open for
inspection by the members of the com
mittee one day each week, was ap
proved. e

Especial star-Bul!etin Correspondence
SCHOFIELD BARRACKS. Nov. %.
The hcps Of some very unusual cir
Cumstances attending the prohab BILE
promotion If the senior captains Of
infantry hat Leen received here. A
vacancy is about to occur in the grade
Of major Of that arm, to which will
he promoted Captain E. A. Shuttle
worth. SBd infantry, who until recent
" Was stationed at Fort Shafter. The
next vacancy in the grade Of major
would ordinarily be filed by the pro-
motion of Captain F. w. Fugar, 18th
infantry. who was surveyed home from
the Philippines about two months ago,
and who has since been a patient
at the Army and Navy Hospital, Hot
springs, Ark.
Captain Fuger has, however, been
found incapacitated by an examining
board and will be retired as a major.
This makes Captain John Howard,
18th infantry, eligible for promotion.
Captain Howard was ordered before a
promotion board last February and
found qualified for the promotion. At
the annual examination Of officers
which in his case was held last Sep
TENDER, Captain Howard was found
physically incapacitated and the rec
ommendation was that be he ordered
before a retiring board, If this were
done and he were found physically
incapacitated for active duty, he would
be retired as a captain. 1t is con-
sidered, that insomuch as he is num-
her three ON the list of captains of
infantry and must be shortly be pro-
NOTED, or become eligible for promo
ton, he must Justly be considered as
entitled to be retired for physical dis
ability with the rank of major, as
in the case of his immediate senior,
Captain Fuger 1t is thought likely
that under the circumstances Captain
Howard will be again examined to
ascertain II he is still physically in
capacitated for promotion. Should
Captains Fuger and Howard be retired
when the second vacancy occurs, the
officer to be promoted will be the
fourth officer on the list, Captain R.
! HI. Van Deman, 21st infantry, and with
his promotion Captain Peter E., Mar
quart, End infantry, would become No
2 on the list.
