Little doubt is felt that Colonel :.
p. Jervey. former United States En-.
gineer here. will accept the city man
agership Of the city Of Portsmouth.
Va, which has been offered to him at
a salary OF $4,000 a year.
BY reason OF his work in building
the great Gatun locks on the Panama
Canal and his record in France. Col
onel Jervey can retire from the United
States Army service as brigadier gen
eral with retired pay Of $1,000 a year.
Thus his combined pay would reach
$4,000
In event OF his acceptance It is
felt in local army and engineer circles
that Colonel +. n. Johnston, present
Unitd States Engineer in Wilmington.
may be named successor to Colonel
Jervey as division engineer. The div
ision embraces the five districts of
Philadelphia, Wilmington. Del, Balli-
