officer OF the hrmy. do not believe that
such an appointment is likely.
AS one omcer put it, such an appoint
ment would raise the cry of militarism
ana might be considered a violation OF
the sacred traditions Of the government
in favor of civil supremacy in the mill
tary departments.
The question of Gen Cocktails eligi-
bility having been presented informally
by newspaper men to Judge Advocate
General Crowder. he stated that Gen.
Goethals could be appointed if he went
on the retired list or resigned from the
army, but not otherwise
70 sustain that view he cited section
12Z2 OF the Revised Statutes, which pro-
vides that any officer of the army on
the active list who accepts a civil office
thereby Vacates his commission and
ceases to be an officer of the army
Exempt From This Position.
Attention also was invited to pro-
vision OF the act of July 81, 1894, pro-
htbtttng any person holding an office
paying $4,000 a year from holding any
other Office. Retired army officers, how
ever, are exempt from the operation of
that statute. As instances of retired
officers holding civil Office and drawing
two salaries. are cited the cases of Gen.
Sickles, who served as member of
Congress from New York, and Gen,
Rosecrans, who served as'register of the
Treasury, while each was on the retired
list of the army.
Among the new possibilities as Secre-
tary of War is mentioned Senator
James H. Lewis of Illinois, who is de-
scribed as being an able man, a good
democrat a military expert and a man
of political influence in pivotal
state.
An interesting rumor current today
was that in case Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt of the Navy is transferred
to the War Department portfolio he
may be succeeded as Mr. Daniels as
sistant by Paymaster General Samuel
MCGOWAN, head of the big naval bu-
reau of supplies and accounts, whose
friends think he might be willing to
resign from the navy to serve in the
high civil Office.
