Paymaster General Stanton has recom- mended the appointment of eighteen addi- tional paymasters for the regular army in addition to the twenty now in the service. This increase, Gen. Stanton thinks, is nec- essary in view of the recruiting of the reg- ar branch to the full war strength of 60,- «0 men. Twenty-three of the paymasters of the volunteer army out of fifty author- ized by law haye been appointed. To main- in the army of 200,000 men for six months cost $30,000,000, according to estimates repared by Paymaster General Stanton, and the leading officials are beginning to fear that hostilities may run along beyond this period. The reason is the growing con- viction on the part of some of the officers that they must not reckon on any substan- tial assistance from the Cuban rebels in this campaign, and, moreover, must me=t the Spaniards in Cuba in their strongest sphere, that of the defensive. oe AuxilMary Naval Force. The Senate committee on naval affairs yesterday decided to report favorably with amendments the joint resolution authoriz- ing an auxillary naval force, which has ready passed the House. Ona of the amend- ments strikes out the House provision con- fining the duties of the proposed force to coast defense, thus leaving it of gencral utility. Another limits the force to nO en- Usted men, whereas the bill as passed by the House left the number entirely to the President's discreiton. A third amendment r2duces the appropriation from four million to three million dollars. Before the com- mittee acted statements were heard from Secretary Long, Assistant Secretary Allen, Rear Admiral Erb2n, Commander J. N. Hemphill and Col. Satterlee af New York, all urging the importance of the measure and of early action. iste Se The Friendsh{p of France. As a result of several recent exchanges between the officials of the State Depart- ment and those of the French embassy an agreeable understanding has b2en reached which gives assurance of a continuance of the traditional friendship existing between the United States and France. It has served to mak: clear that each government has the fullest confidence in the friendly at- titude. of the other, and that any criticisms or znimosities aroused by recent incidents in the war hav not be:n shared by the government officials of either country.
