ENLISTING COLLEGE GRADUATES—THE SERTICR CRIP- FLED BY SMALL APPROPRIATIONS—TEE ARCTIC EX- PEDITIONS, ETC. Chief Signal OMicer Hazen in his annua! report to ‘to the Secretary of War says that the course of instruction pursued at Ft Myer bas been enlarged and otherwise improved. During the year five oM- cers completed the course of instruction In meteor- ology at Ft. Myer, and sixty-nine enlisted men were instructed in signaling, telegraphy, ele- mentary, meteorology and duties assoldiers. In ad- dition two officers have completed the course of instruction at the signal office in the. of ‘Weather predictions” ‘The number o 78 avall- able for this branch of the service is considered in- SuMficient. The attempt made during the last ture years to sccure, the enlistment of young college duates has met with success. Of tue 231 eb istnents made during that time 65 were college graduates, ORIPFLED CONDITION OF THE SERVICE. Gen. Hazen calls attention to the crippled con- ition in which the service has been left by the Jast_two appropriation acts, and says that a8 & consequence 17 stations of the meteorol ser- vice have been closed in onder to send men to the telegraph lines. The increasing demands for ‘Special predictions in the interests of agriculture, Speclal, trades and nee, Indicate Ia a mea ‘sure, the report says, the value and importan ie “indieatfons ‘division. of the signal service, {Gh improvement in the wording of the indica tons and the more rigid manuer of determining the accuracy of predictions, Gen. Hazen an improvement in the work of this same divi- sion, and adds that further improvements ould ve made by an increase of stations, especially. in the est and northwest. Nogeneral storm, has Passed over this country during the year without Warning, the report says. IN RELATION TO THE ARCTIC EXPEDITIONS, Gen. Hazen says, referring to the departure of the Yantlc, after the loss of the Proteus, from Little- ton Island to St. John’s, without leaving provis- Jons, “that this abandonment of Lieut. Greely and his party to probable starvation, by oMficers whose only mission in those waters was to succor them, Gisplayed lamentable disregard of grave respon sibilities” He holds thavit Lieut. Ganiington had insisted upon leaving rations from the Yante, of it another relief vessel had been sent trom St. John’ a3 he himself urged, loss of life and disaster woul have been averted. ' Gen. Hazen says Lieut. Greely carried out his instructions literally, and the signal bureau carried out the prearranged ‘plan. He con- {inues, after referring vo Lieut. Greeiy’s retreat v0 Cape Sabine, and to the successful rellet ex tion under Commander Schley, as foliows: “Up wo The return of the expedition tiis year I had hoped there would be no occasion for raising the question Of blame at this or any future time. But new ligt has been cast upon the subject, and with It my duty becomes plain, and “the trath of history and justice’ wo all calls for such ~ imp Inquiry and authoritative Judgment as @ tribunal broad enough to embrace the whole question, shall institute and pronounce, and the Congress of the United States 1s manifestly such a tribual * * * T therefore trust that this whole matter of the Ladv Franklin Bay expedition and the expeditions organized for its rellet Will be deemed worthy of a thorough investigation by Congress.” Gen. Hazen cousiders the Greely expe- dition “among the toremost of Its kind,” and insists hat “both Lieut, Greely tn the Arcuc and the signal bureau in Washington carried out their arts of the prearranged plan of rescue terally and successully fn every particular.” A LETTER FROM LIEUT. GREELY. He refers to the failure of Lieut. Garlington to Teplace the spoiled provisions at Cape Sabine, and quotes from a letter written by Lieut. Greely to him, April 20, supposing himself at the polat. ot death, as follows: “Had Leut. Garlington carried out your orders and replaced the 240 racions of rum and 120 alcohol in English cache here, and the 20 pounds mouldy Engilsh bread, spelled English chocolate and potatoes, melted sugar, and the 210 bounds of rotten dog Discult, we wuld without Joubl be saved.” Gen, Hazen says Garlington should have lett uwo-thirds of the stores received from the Proteus at Cape Sabine, INCREASE OF THE SIGNAL CORPS RECOMMENDED. In conciuding his report the clef signal officer Tecorumends that the following officers be added to ‘the signal corps with the rank and pay of cavalry officers: 1 colonel, 1 Weutenant colonel, 1 major and disbuTsing officer, 8 captains and the ‘appolutment of second Heutenants to first Meutenants after 8 years, and to captains after 14 years’ service. He recommends that the 150 sergeants of the corps be Composed of tree, clases with, pay of $0 per month, 50 with pay Of $40, and 75 WIth Day Of §34, and that all the sergeants, corporals and privates of the first class of the corps be known as “ub- Servers” Of the signal service, EXAMINING co ‘The District Commissioners Looking Over the Pay-Rollu—Mr.Edmonds Says ‘That There is a Good Deal of Taik Over a Small Matter. ‘The District Commissioners held thelr executive session early to-day, and, it 1s understood, dis- cussed among other things the various complaints that have been made regarding the management of the public schools, the introduction of text books, &. The Commissioners have gbtained from the superintendents copies of the pay-rolls for several months for the purpose of making a thor- ough examination. Commissioner West 1s en- gaged upon this examination. WHAT COMMISSIONEK EDMONDS SATS. Commissioner Edmonds stated to a Stax reporter ‘that thls examination of the pay-rolls did not Im- ply that the Commissioners suspected anything wrong. They were now doing in the case of the pubilc schools what they had ‘done tn the cases of outer departments of te government, and what they deemed it necessary to do, 80 as to keep them- selves Informed upon all the detalis of the District government ‘When ‘Tue Stax reporter called Mr.Edmonds' at- tention to a published statement attributed to him ‘that there was nothing in the charges which had been circulated against the school trustees and su- perintendents, Mr. Eamonds remarked that he had not used that expression. It seemed to him that there was a great deal of talk over a very small matter,so faras the District Commissioners could Judge from their present information, MR. WARNER'S RESIGNATION ACCEPTED. In reply to the letter of resignation as school trustee of Mr. B. H. Warner the Commissioners say they accept with regret his resignation as a mem- ber of the board of School trustees of the District of Columbla. They also communicate to him thelr thanks tor and appreciation of the attention and labor he has devoted to the interests of the pub- Ue sehoois. ‘The resignation of Mr. Warner was precipitated, itis stated, by the action of Commissioner West In having Detective Block Investigate complaints re- garding text-books and supplies. | Mr. Warner stated to the Commissioners that he thougat if such an investigation was deemed necessary they should have called upou the school board instead of sending a detective officer to collect informa- uon. MR. WARNER NOT OPPOSED TO INVESTIGATION. Mr. Brainard H. Warner, president of the school board, when questioned by a Stak reporter to-day in reference to an intimation that he was not in favor of investigating school matters, stated that he was in favor of investigating n every proper way all public matters; that he Would be very glad to have a systematic’ Inquiry made into school affairs with a view to their improvement. He thought the course of study in the Schools was too extended and too much was required of both teacher and puplt, but Just _how to correct this de- fect was a subject of present inquiry not only here, but In almost every city in the country. Pr. Warher said he objected to statements and Insinu- ations made against teachers and others, reflect- ing upon their characters and standing in the com- munity uniess based upon certain knowledge. He knew of nothing wrong in the conduct of school affatrs, and had always urged the Commissioners to visit the Schools and ascertain for themselves Just how the schools were progressing and what improvement might be made. ‘Transfers of Real Estate, Deeds tn fee have been filed as follows: W.
