NAVY PAY TABLE. 5 About two Section 13 of the Navy Personnel bill, which became a law on March 3, 1899, provided that "after June 30, 1899, commissioned officers of the line of the Navy and of the Medical and Pay Corps shall receive the same pay and allowances, except forage, as are or may be provided by or in pursuance of law for officers of corresponding rank in the Army: Provided, that such officers when on shore duty shall receive the allowIances, but 15 per centum less pay than when on sea duty; but this provision shall not apply to warrant officers commissioned under Section' 12 of this act. Provided further, that when naval officers are detailed for shore auty beyond seas they shall receive the same pay and allowances as are or may be provided by or in pursuance of law for officers of the Army detailed for duty in similar places.' The pay of officers of the Army of and below the rank of colonel is increased 10 per cent for each five years of service in the grade, until the increase amounts to 40 per cent of the original pay, when no further increase may be made. The pay of a retired officer is 75 per cent of the highest pay of his grade on the active list. The relative rank between officers of the Navy (whether on the active or retired list) and officers of the Army is as follows: Admiral with general, rear-admiral with major-general, captain with colonel, commander with lieutenant-colonel, lieutenantcommander with major, lieutenant with captain, lieutenant of junior grade with first lieutenant, ensign with second lieutenant.

UNITED STATES NAVAL ACADEMY. STUDENTS AND COURSE.-The students of the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md., are styled Naval Cadets. One cadet is allowed for each member or delegate of the House of Representatives, one for the District of Columbia, and ten at large. No more than ten appointed at large are allowed in the Academy at any one time. The course of study is six years, four years at the Academy and two at sea, at the end of which time the cadet returns to the Academy for final graduation. The district then becomes vacant on completion of the cadet's four years' course at the Naval Academy. NOMINATIONS.-The Secretary of the Navy, as soon after March 5 in each year as possible, notifies in writing each member or delegate of the House of Representatives of any vacancy in his district. The nomination of a candidate to fill the vacancy is made on the recommendation of the member or delegate, if such recommendation is made by July 1 of that year; but if it is not made by that time, the Secretary of the Navy shall fill the vacancy by appointment of an actual resident of the district in which the vacancy exists, who shall have been for at least two years immediately preceding the date of his appointment an actual and bona fide resident of the district in which the vacancy exists and of the legal qualification under the law as now provided. The candidate allowed for the District of Columbia and all the candidates appointed at large are selected by the President. Candidates allowed for Congressional districts, for Territories and for the District of Columbia must be actual residents of the districts or Territories from which they are nominated. And all candidates must, at the time of their examination for admission, be between the ages of fifteen and twenty, physically sound, well formed and of robust constitution, ENTRANCE EXAMINATION.-All examinations will be held at various points throughout the United States, under the supervision of the United States Civil Service Commission. No more examinations for the admission of candidates will be held at the Naval Academy. The first examination will be held on the third Tuesday in April, the second examination on August 11, of each year, at points designated by the commission, nearest the homes of the candidates. A third examination will be held at Washington, D. C., only on September 15, in each year, for the accommodation of all candidates who have, for any reasons, been unable to report for either of the other two examinations. Should August 11 or September 15 fall on Sunday, the examinations will be held the following Monday. Members and delegates in Congress having the appointment of a naval cadet to make are authorized to nominate one principal and five alternates. The alternates are to be numbered from one to five and appointment made in the same order, i. e.. if the principal passes he is to be appointed; but if the principal should fail, and the first alternate qualify, the first alternate is to be appointed. In case the principal and the first alternate should fail, and the second alternate qualify, the second alternate is to be appointed, and so on down the list, in regular numerical order, until the fifth alternate is reached and included. Candidates are required to enter the Academy immediately after passing the prescribed examinations. No leave of absence is granted to cadets of the fourth class. GRADUATE APPOINTMENTS.-Appointments to fill all vacancies that may occur during a year in the lower grades of the line of the Navy and of the Marine Corps are made from the Naval Cadets, graduates of the year, at the conclusion of their six years' course, in the order of merit as determined by the Academic Board. At least fifteen appointments from such graduates will be made each year. To surplus graduates who do not receive such appointments will be given a certificate of graduation, an honorable discharge and one year's sea pay, as provided for Naval Cadets VESSELS OF In the following tables "B.
