The governmental economy move has
struck another blow at the Naval Re-
serve. adding to that which came with
the cancellation of the annual cruises
this Summer, the announcement being
made that all promotions Of officers
, and enlisted men will be withheld un-
til further orders.
A circular letter from the Navy De.
partment. received by the commendant
of the Washington Navy Yard, quotes
the law as follows:
All provisions of law which confer
upon civilian or non-civilian officers OF
employees of the United States Govern
ment or the Municipal Government OF
the District of Columbia automatic in
creases in compensation by reason OF
length of service or promotion are
suspended during the fiscal year ending
June 80. 1888; but this section shall
not be construed to deprive any person
of any increment Of compensation re-
! ceived through an automatic increase
in compensation prior to July /, 1892.
The letter then says that "in view
of the above quoted provisions Of law
| no promotions of officers or advance
ments in rating of enlisted men of the
Naval Reserve will be made until fur
ther orders
The various provisions of the act
popularly known as the economy bill
are being studied by competent author
ity with special reference as to their
application to the Navy. If as a re-
suit of this study the restrictions here
in imposed can be eliminated. or fur
ther instructions required. the various
commandants will be so informed"
With the Fleet Reserve Divisions
compliments almost constantly filled
the practice of enlisting men directly
in the Fleet Reserve here has been
suspended for the time being Young
men desiring to enlist in the Reserve
under a new scheme put into effect
must go into the volunteer class. dur
ing which they serve an apprentice
ship to determine whether they will
keep up an interest in the Reserve
During this period they are required
to serve without drill pay in the Fleet
Reserve activities.
If they show proper interest, 1t was
explained, they are appointed to va
cancies as they occur. and then they
are given their drill pay
Five men last weel3 were ordered
transferred from the volunteer to the
feet branch, and assigned to the Sd
Fleet Division to fill vacancies. Their
names follow: Roger A. Bell. fireman,
third class; Ernest Butterfield. fireman,
third class Harold E. Hartstock, sea-
man, second class: Henry j. M. How
ard, fireman, third class, and Charles
A. SatterfeId, fireman, third class.
Many officers of both the fleet and
volunteer branches Of the Reserve are
making applications to take the pro-
fessional correspondence courses which
have been prepared by the Navy De-
partment for the use of the Reserve. 1t
was said that the courses already have
been assigned to number of officers.
and it is expected that many more will
take advantage of the opportunity to
improve their knowledge of the Navy.

eled at the Charleston Navy Yard for

GERMANS PROUD
OF FAST RAILWAY

BERLIN, July % N.AN.A)-The
Germans are claiming a new long-dis-
tance record in railway speeds with the
Hamburg Berlin express. The newest
express covers the distance of 17S
miles at a speed of 597 miles an hour.
Times have changed. indeed, for Just
after the war the Germans were 50
short Of fuel and rolling stock that the
most ambitious speed Of their railways
was 80 miles an hour.
On the roads 1t is another matter.
New traf1ic regulations aim at the pre-
vention Of speeding in the country.
The sounding Of hooters as q sign that
one motor vehicle wishes to overtake
another is now forbidden on country
roads.
The trans. too. have lost their last
privilege. that Of being allowed to start
after the traffic had been held up.
Berliners still regard their trans as a
sign of true democracy, though it is
many years since the former Kaiser
retired to Potsdam in a temper because
the tram lines had encroached upon
the privacy of the square outside his
Berlin palace

City Officials Ready to
Swing AK on Budgets
Council Meetings Post
poned, Awaiting Actions
of State Assembly.

City officials are expected to make
a belated start, within the next
week or ten days, on compilation Of
the civil city budget for 1888.
Meetings of city councilmen and
other officials to study budget re-
quests has been delayed, awaiting
outcome of the forty day special
session Of the legislature, which will
end Aug Is.
Various department heads, it is
understood, have been advised to
submit budgets on the basis of their
needs and without salary cuts, in or
der that proportionate cuts may be
made by the budget committee.
While it is certain that serious re-
duction must be effected in the
budget, it is impossible to forecast
the nature or amount of these re-
auctions, said Mayor Reginald H
Sullivan.
The bill passed by the house of
representatives Monday, providing
a sliding scale of salary cuts, with
provisions for a 10 per cent slash in
the total salary budget, would mean
a $32O000 drop in the city budget
for salaries alone, equal to about
AZ cents in the levy.
Of this amount, more than half
would be sustained by police mad fire
departments, with total pay roll
Of approximately $2,45O.O00.
In addition, the city budget max
ers must take into consideration the
$82,O00000 Center township realty
valuation cut, announced several
weeks ago.
