WIN1ERHALTER QUITS POST
AsIatie Fleets Commander Slated
for Even Bigger, Job.

When on his first long cruise after
leaving Annapolis, Admiral A. G. VIM,
terhalter sailed on a Friday, crossed
the line" on Friday, and arrived on
Friday.
But 1t bore no fruits of misfortune.
Today Admiral Winterhalter has re-
linquished supreme command OF the
United States fleet in the Asiatic af-
ter a most successful regime. He Is
slated for even more responsible
duties in the near future.
When the United States took over
the Hawaiian Islands ir 1898, it was
winterhalter, then flag lieutenant,
who hoisted the Stars and Stripes
over the new Territory.
Besides being a fighter. the admiral
is a man of the highest scientific and
literary attainments. When the navy
established its new Naval Observatory
In Washington, Winterhalter was Sc
lected to make a tour of all European
observatories and scientific institu-
tions to assist in designing the new
plant.
Probably the most accomplished
linguist in the navy, Admiral Winter
halter speaks or reads within one OF
a dozen languages.

Their transportation TO the camp will
be paid and they will be furnished
quarters. subsistence, uniforms. and
equipment But. regardless OF
whether they passed examinations or
not, they will not receive pay during
the three months they must devote to
training. Congress has failed to act
and the War Department has no
money to pay them.
A few of those who have taken the
examinations have already 1een given
commissions. These commissions. the
War Department says, will stand. and
the men holding them, while required
to attend training camp, will do so In
thS capacity of officers and draw pay
according'to to their rank.
But the others will have no mora
standing than the rawest rookie"
civilian. l--e -
Commissions will be awarded at the
end of the three months of training,
according to fitness.
1t Is feared in army circles that the
new order of things may make II DIFF
ficult to get the 10000 officers
needed for the several devisions of
infantry, cavalry. and artfllerey to be
formed next July. Under the. present
law, even though a candidate has
made formal application for admit
tance to the training school, he can
not be required to attend. All the
War Department can do Is to tender
an Invitation.

PROSPECTIVE ARMY
MEN DISAPPOINTED
Officers Reserve Corps Instruc-
ton Camp Recruits Will
Get No Pay. L.

Examinations of candidates for the
Officers Reserve Corps have been
discontinued by the War Department,
and the only way to get a commits
sion now Is to enter one of the
training camps to be opened May 1.
Discontinuance OF examinations was
necessitated by lack of officers to
train the candidates.
This means bitter disappointment
to more than 1000 men in all sections
of the country, and more than 100 IN
Washington, who have already ap-
piled for examination, or have been
intending to apply.
A still greater disappointment lies
in store for several score of men. a
goodly proportion of them Washing
tonians, who took the examination
last month, passed 1t, and have been
expecting commissions daily.
Commissions will not be forthcom-
ing. Instead, these men. too, IL they
would be officers, must enter the
training camp, and enter as civilians.
