Howard continued to refuse, bloodshed would probably follow. ‘The prompt action of the Secre- tary of War in the matter will prevent any further misunderstanding. THE DISTRICT ESTIMATES Not Cut Down by Treasury Officials. Secretary Fairchild has not finally acted upon the District estimates, but they have been fully exanmined in the First Controllers office and are in his hands for approval. The probability is that ‘the District Commissioners will have the satisfac- they presented them tothe Department. It has jong been acomplaint that the Commisstoners could not get their original estimates before Congress; that they were revised and cut down by the clerks im the ‘Treasury Department. This year they will Tecelve far different treatment, ‘The Department will not undertake to. say that the Commissioners do not know what they need, The figures sented in unis statement of the needs of the trict will be sent to Congress for the consideration Of the appropriations committee.

A PERIOD OF QUIET AND REST EXJOINED BY HIS PHY- SICLAN—THE ARRANGEMENTS FOR A PRO TEM. ADMIN- ISTRATION OF NAVY DEPARTMENT AFFAIRS. Secretary Whitney, who is in New York, will not Teturn to Washington for an indefinite period on ‘Account of ill-health. Although not suffering from any disease, he 1s forbidden by bis physician from undertaking any work for atime. For the past year the’ Secretary has had troublesome headaches, which have grown more and more severe and fre- ‘quent, until now he is unable to work. For the past two weeks he has Mot been able even to read his letters, and although he had accumulated some of the materials, he has written no word of his an- ‘nual report, and there is no prospect that he will be able to prepare one, His physician states that with the necessary rest the Secretary will be per- fectly well again; but how long a rest will be re- quired will appear after a little time. It 1s sald that the Secretary's trouble was prob- ably aggravated by his close application to his Guties during the very warm weather of the past summer, when he gave personal attention to the Preparation of contracts for new naval vessels. He made a thorough study of the technical details of ship-buliding. The recent appointment of a board of the bureau officers of the Department to meet frequently to consider matters coming under the different bureaus was made in view of the coatem- plated temporary retirement of the Secretary trom business, Heretofore the Acting Secretary of tne javy has felt authorized in acting upon routine matters only; but, with the approval of all the other bureau chiefs, the Acting Secretary will have ‘no hesitancy in acting to the full limit of the au, thority conferred upon him. Commodore Harmony, chief of the Bureau of Yards and Docks, will act both as Secretary of the Navy and as president of the board of bureau chiefs. Itis understood that Secre- tary Whitney will soon move from New York toa more retired place, probably to his country home at Lenox, Mass. It is not thought that he will occupy his country residence, “Grasslands,” near Wash- ington, very soon, as there it would be difficult for him to refrain from paying attention to public matters, and complete rest 18 necessary for his re- covery. ASSISTING SECRETARY ENDICOTT, The Three Army Officers Who are Act- ing as Aids to the Head of the War Department. ‘Major Asa Gardner, of the Judge Advocate Gen- eral’s Department of the Army, who was recently ordered to duty in Washington, is now installed in the War Department as a secretary to the Sec- retary of War. He occuptes with Major Adams the large room west of the Secretary's reception Toom. Secretary Endicott now has three military secretaries—Major Garner, Major Adams, of the Engincer Corps, and Capt. Taylor, of the Ordnance Department. The latter officer occupies the small room between the Secretary's office and the chief clerk's room. Shortly after Endicott came into office he found that it would be impossible for him to attend to all the business that come to his desk, ‘without additional assistance,as Chief Clerk Tweed- ale had really more to do than h “could attend to, ‘The Secret felt that the War Department h an assistant secretary and as ‘was impossible he concluded to secure assist ‘Army officers to duty in the War ‘apt Taylor was the frst ofticer so wen charge of the disburse. ‘appropriated for the miu Dut his labors were not confined to this duty, he gave the Secretary valuable assistance. 1g stated at the War Deparument that the work of the Secretary of War hus largely increased within the past two and Secretary Endicott found that he would require further assistance.
