With the abolishment of the American naval mission in Brazil on January 31, considerable interest has been evinced in the duty assignments that will be given to the 16 naval officers now with the mission at Rio de Janeiro. It was at first thought that perhaps the con- tract with the American Government for retaining the naval mission in the South American republic would be con- tinued, but now that it has been defi- nitely decided to abolish the mission, the officer members thereof will be as- signed elsewhere to duty. Members of the mission who are not already in this country on leave of absence are due to arrivé in the United States by the end of January, except Rear Admiral Noble E. Irwin, head of the mission, who is coming home by way of Panama. Upon his detachment from duty as a member of the mission, Capt. Russell Willson, U. 8. N., will assume command of Destroyer Division 10 of the Battle Fleet, while Comdr. Monroe Kelly, also 8 member of the mission, has been as- signed to command the U. S. S. Leary. Lieut. Comdr. Willlam H. P. Blandy, U. S. N, who has been on duty at Rio de Janeiro as a member of the naval mission, will remain at that place, after discontinuance of the mission, for duty as naval attache at the American em- sY. Capt. Byron McCandless, now on duty i the Bureau of Navigation, will be as signed to command the U. S. S. Raleigh as the relief of Capt. Ernest Friedick, whose next duty will be as one of the assistants to the commandant of the 11th Naval District. Upon the com- pletion of his treatment at the' Naval Hospital in Washington, Capt. Edgar Cberlin, U. S. N, will come to duty at the Navy Department as technical aid to the Secretary of the Navy and for additional duty as director of the Naval Research Laboratory, Bellevue, D. ('J Army. After a careful study of the situa. tion at West Point, it has been proposed to purchase approximately 15,000 acres of land to be added to the military res- ervation for the use of the United States Military Academy. To make this acqui- sition of land possible, a bill has been introduced by Representative W. Frank James of Michigan, chairman of the ing House Military Committee, which carries an authorization of $1,500,000 to make the purchase. The study made, with especial reference to the water supply, convinced Mr. James that it was neces- sary to secure this additional land with- out delay. The acreage it is proposed to purchase includes the watershed of the present, and in fact the only, water supply available to the academy. The United States will not be repre- sented by a team in the international tree-rifle matches, which will be shot at Lwow, Poland, next year, and it is the E'uum intention also, not to enter a nited States team in subsequent matches of that sort. The decision not to compete in the future international free-rifle matches is based uj the fact that shooting with the free rifle is not an American sport. Our own rifle shooting is almost entirely with the service Springfield rifie and with the caliber .22, straight trigger. ‘The Capitol Hill Union met December 10 at Waugh M. E. Church.

Ful- |ler has just issued one of the most important orders relative to Fleet Ma- rine Corps Reservists since the estab- lishment of Reserve of the corps, and, in consequence, many Reservists now re- - sid.ng here will spedily be placed upon the retired list in addition to those re- siding in other parts of the country. The legal department of the corps first considered the legal aspects of ths question, which was brought to the fore by a recent decision of the judge advo- cate of the Navy, who decided favorably to the Interests of the Reservists of the Navy. Charles A. Ketcham (major, Reserves) rendered a legal opinion in favor of the corps’ Reservists, which was approved by Brig. Gen. John Twigg Myers, assistant to the major gencral commandant, and Brig. Gen. Rufus H. Lane, adjutant and inspector of the Marine Corps, respectively. Maj. Gen. Ben H. Fuller gave the final approval, which, coming from the commandant of the corps, is a great rclief to the Reservists, who will now’ be credited with all previous service for retirement as follows: “Service in the Army shall be counted in computing time for re- tirement of all transferred members of the 16 and 20 year classes of Marine Corps Reservists. Service in the Army during the Spanish-American War and other services for which double time is allowed by the War Department shall be counted as double time in computing - time for retirement of Reservists of these classes. All double time for foreign scrvice (prior to revocation of such law in 1912) shall be counted for retirement of Reservists who have such service in the corps.” The major general commandant will shortly assign one officer of the line of the corps to th: Ecole de Guerre, Paris, France, for a course of instruction thereat. It is stated that in all prob- ebility one of the senior line officers of - the corps will be designated. First Lieut. James E. Stanners, who has been on temporary duty at the Quantico base, has been ordered to re- turn to his station of duty at Parris Island, S. C. Sergt. Maj. Clarence B. Proctor, re- siding at 129 E street: Q. M. Sergt. W. P. Milstead (Riggs Bank) and Sergt. Charley Kaiser of 3806 Georgia avenue * are a few of the many Marine Corps - Reservists who are shortly to be placed upon the retired list of non-commis- ' sioned officers of the corps in pursuance to latest interpretation of %flewials law by authorities of the corps.
