WASHINGTON. March 2.-The eXecu-
tive session OF the senate tonight re-
suited In the confirmation OF more o
the Taft appointments TO the army, navy
and allied services,
A controversy that developed over tine
nominations OF Major Beecher b. Ray
who was appointed a lieutenant colonel
and Colonel Carroll A, Devol, appointed
brigadler general, delayed proceedings to-
night.
Opposition To the promotion OF Major
Ray was based largely on only charges
OF political activity and OF misconduct
The opposition TO Colonel Devo's pro-
motion came from those who claimed that
under the new system by which the quar-
termasters and commissaries and pay de-
partments OF the army have been con-
solldated the br!gadicr generalship should
have gone to a colonel OF the pay corps
rather than TO Colonel Devol of the
quartermastcrs crops.
No action was taken on the Devol or
the Rag appointments. Nearly 100 other
officers in the army. navy and revenue
cutter service were confirmed. The ex-
ecutlve session ended at 1913 o'clock this
(Monday) morning. when Il recess was
taken until 9;i5 al. m. when the session
