Twenty-line Junior Ollicer.
“’asliington, _ D. cC., Feb. ' 6.--0n-|y
twenty-nine cfiicers. of the navy are.
recommended for advancement for con-
,Spicuous and heroic action in the war
Board
Secretary Long by the naval board or.
promotion.
As the board llill has to receive re-
ports from Rear Admiral 'Dewey," its
wmk is incomplete. and it can be cori-
fidently expected that promotion will
be given to several officers who distin-
guished themselves at Manila.
The list made public recalls many
stirring incidents in which those re-
warded participated. .
As all the'commanding oflicers 3f
the vessels nhich took part in the bat-
tles of Santiago and Manila bay have
been promoted, the board considered
on.y the cases of junior officers.
Six oilicers of the Gloucester, which
performed such plucky and gallant
work during the Santiago battle have
been recommended for advancement.
The greatest advancement is given
to Ensign H. 11. Ward, who will be
promottd by'ten numbers. Mr. Ward
is the young officer sent on‘ secret ser-
vice to Spain and Porto Rico during
the war. .
Lieutenant C. VJ. Jungen, who com—
manded the W’ctnrait-uck, will rbe ad-
vanced five numbers; Ensign T. P. Ma-
gruder of the Marblehead five num-
bers, and Lieutenant A. C. Dillingham
of the Nashville two numbers [or gal-
and Santiago.

some time this week.

in the investigation of the beef contro-
'versy, the report may bepresentcd
before Wednesday next.
Positive conclusions on this subject
7 have not been reached by the commis—
I sion. It expects to receive additional
testimony sobn from the chemists of
the agricultural department and the
geological survey regarding the chem-
' ical analysis of the canned roast beef.
' the committee.
All hope of hearing from James Far—
nan of Chester, Pa., who claimed to
have seen beef chemicalizcd in Omaha,
has vanished, as he has paid no atten-
tion to the telegraphic and written
summons of the commission.
In fact all the witnesses who have
been declaring that they knew posi-
tively that'beef was treated chemical—
ly, have, when called upon by the com»
mission, declined to testify,' under oath
or have made some excuse for not ap-
pearihg.

Some of tho. Cuban ()flicers Are. W’- '
pointed.
Havana, Feb. 4.--The news of Gem-
eral Maximo Gomez’s acceptance of the
proposals of President McKinley has
not yet been thoroughly weighed in;
this city. TheCuban leaders seem un- I
certain, for the moment, whether to
support General Gomez or criticise 'him.
Public opinion had been wrought up to
demand and expect a larger payment,
and some of the Cuban major gener-
als who have not been consulted may
strongly disapprove oflan agreement
which gives them a minute portion of
l
the $20,000 each of them expected. .
The following message from Presi-
dent McKinley was received by Mr.
Porter yesterday morning and was
transmitted to General Maximo Go—
mez: ,
The president sends his hearty con-
gratulations and thanks for your dis-
patch. Convey his grateful apprecia—
tion of the general’s frank and friendly
message. The co-operation of General
Gomez in the pacification of Cuba will
be of the greatest value for both peo-
ples. .

ments for this purpose, and yesterday
