Mr. Mitch 11, Acting Comptrol ler of tha Treasury, has replied to an inquiry trom Pay Inspector Bartis on the United States flag ship New York, at Po'.tof Spain, Trinidad, as to the rate of pay to which Rear Admiral W. T. Samp- n is entitled from August 10th, 1898, when he was commissionetl a Rear Admiral, to March 4tb, 1699, the data when Congress ad ourned. The essential facts in connection with Admiral Samp ecn's advancement . era given by the Bureau of Navigation as fol- ows: -"Rear Admiral William T. Sampson was advanced eicht num bers and appointed a Rear Ad- miral in tbe Navy for eminent and conspicious conduct in battle un der the provisions of Section 1, 506 of the Revised Statutep, from tbe 10th day of August, 1898, and an interim commission was issued him from that date. This advance ment tho Senate failed to confirm prior to adjournment." Acting Comptroller Mitchell in the course of hi3 decision says: 'The advancement in numbers authorized by Section 1,506 does not create a vacancy within the meaning of the Constitution from the time when the President de cides to recommend such advance ment, nor is any vacancy created prior to the data when the Senate concursin tho President's recom mendation. It is not simply tho filling of an office: it is an adjudi cation not by the President alone, but by tbe President and Senate, upon the question of whether the acts of heroism constitute sufficient ground for advancement, and un til such combined action is had, no advancement takes place, and no vacancy exiets to be filled, Tne President and Senato together con stitute a forum to pass upon ques tions of advancement in numbers under this section of the Revised Statutes. I am of the opinion, therefore, and so decide that as the Senate did not consent to the ad vancement of Rear Admiral Samp son, no authority exists for payiDg him as Rear Admiral from the date when he was commissioned as such for eminent and conspicu ous conduct in battle, to ' the ad journment of the session of . the Senate at which such advancement was proposed.". . .

I w t .13 EYENT OF THE SEASON. - ' o THE EXPECTED IS NOW A CEUTAINTY. "Pipkla'd, Excursion to Washington Is Set For July 25. It Wilt Us The Lar gest And Must Far-Keacbinie He Has Tet liun. Wilmington to Washington - Goldsboro has the reput ition, far and near, for many things that are the best, and among these she is conceded, without question, to have ihe best excursion, manager in the country. In fact, with all the great railroad syslemsfrom the District of Columbir to the Gulf the nama of R. E. Pipkin stands at tbe head of tbe list as tha most iic;e3?fu'. mar agc-r of, long dis tance excursions with whom they havo dealings, They have found from experience that Mr. Pipkin ttlways draws the biggest crowds; and tho reason ef this is that the pu die have long since realized that Mr. Pipkin always runs the best excursions that go and tho cheap est ever beard of. This year M Pipkin, yielding to the solicitation of many from territory hitherto not traversed by his excursion.0, has extended it as far Sjuth as Wilmington and on to Tarboro, inclusive, and yet the higfcest rate, that from Wilming ton to Washington and return, giving two wbole das and one night in Washingtcn, with a de lightful steamer trip from No folk to Washington and rtturn, is only $6. In running his excursions Mr. Pipkin always selec s dates that have at the objaciiva points at tractions that are out of the or dinary. This year, in addition to the manifold usual attractions at Washington, the art galleries, government departments, public squares, tne wnue nouse ana grounds, the Capitol, the superb National Library, the towering Washington Monumenand many other features too numerous to recount, two of the best clubs of the National Base Ball League will meet each other on the dia mond there in the presence, of thousands of spectators. At Norfolk, te United States Navy Yard was never so attract ive as now, with thousands.- of workmen building war vessels, tbat are to go forth to maintain the nation's honors on ,the high seas, Many of the big war ves sel?, full rigged and manned, will be in tha harbor awaiting orders that visitors at other time woull not have the opportunity of seeing. Therefore it is that the coming excursion of Mr. Pipkin, on July 25, we predict, will be the largest perhaps, tha State has never known, The charge from Goldsboro to Washington and return is only $5 50. But this is not all. In order to be entirely agreeable to the wishes of the public, Mr. Pipkin has. so arranged that persons who wish to go only as"Tar as Norfolk and Old Point can do so for only half the charge: that is, from Wilmington to Norfolk and return for 3 30, and from Golds boro to Norfolk and return for $2.50. The train leaves Wilmington on the morning of 25 h of July, (Tuesday) at 8 30 o'clock, and leaves Goldsboro at 11:00 o'clock upon arrival of the regular passenger train from Newborn, and just ahead of the passenger train north over the Atlantic Coast Line, which gives his ex cursion the right of way a clear track, which lends additional safety right through to Nor folk, Returning, the ' boat will leave Washington Thursday evening: putting excursionists at borne Friday. As is well known, Mr. Pipkin always carries a corps of efficient coadjutors to look after the la dies and children of his excur sion, attend" to all baggage, and cater to tbe comforts of every passenger, so as to make the trip as free from worry and as full of enjoyment as possible, ' THE BEST PfiESCRIPTION.FOR CHII1S and fever la a bottle of Grove's Taste less Chili.

St. Louia, Mo., July 6 A special to the Post-Djspatch from Dallas, Texas, says: At 11 o'clock to-day a short dispatch was received from lineman at Dawey, just across tbe Brazos river from Sealey. It read: "River falling slowly since 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Con ditions here terrible. Everything in country swept away, Large number of livt's lost in bottoms. Looks like starvation for those left. Situation not been exag gerated. Several " days before line repairs, can be made with anything like system." , This telegram was recsived over the first wire that has been working into Sealey and Dewey for three days. D puty Sheriff Swearinger, at Sealey, telephoned at noon : "There is no improvement in this section of the flood district. If anything, the situation is grow ing worse. No relief boats have yet reached here from Houston or Galveston. Sealey and neigh boring towns have about ex hausted their resources. Another negro family was drowned near here to-day. Several uther lives have been lost since last night, especially among the refugees on the mound near Old San Phillipe. A number of negroes have fallen exhausted from tree tops, after hanging there three days and nights, and were drowned, "A rumor is current here of great loss of life near Richmond, Fort Bend county. As we are cut off from all that Southern sec tion, definite information is un obtainable; but the situation nat urally must be as bad as here. Doctors Can't Cure It!
