EACH Congressional District and Territory-also the District of Columbia-is entitled to have one cadet at the Academy. There are also ten appointments at large, specially conferred by the President of the United States. The number of students is thus limited to three hundred and seventy-one. At present there is one extra cadet at the Academy, who was authorized by Congress to enter it at his own expense from Salvador. Appointments are usually made one year in advance of date of admission, by the Secretary of War, upon the nomination of the Representative. These nominations may either be made after competitive examination or given direct, at the option of the Representative. The Representative may nominate a legally qualified second candidate, to be designated the alternate. The alternate will receive from the War Department a letter of appointment, and will be examined with the regular appointee, and if duly qualified will be admitted to the Academy in the event of the failure of the principal to pass the prescribed preliminary examinations. Appointees to the Military Academy must be between seventeen and twenty-two years of age, free from any infirmity which may render them unfit for military service, and able to pass a careful examination in reading, writing, orthography, arithmetic, grammar, geography, and history of the United States. The course of instruction, which is quite thorough, requires four years, and is largely mathematical and professional. The principal subjects taught are mathematics, French, drawing, drill regulations of all arms of the service, natural and experimental philosophy, chemistry, chemical physics, mineralogy, geology, and electricity, history, international, constitutional, and military law, Spanish, and civil and military engineering, and art and science of war, and ordinance and gunnery. About onefourth of those appointed usually fail to pass the preliminary examination, and but little over one-half the remainder are finally graduated. The discipline is very strict-even more so than in the army-and the enforcement of penalties for offences is inflexible rather than severe. Academic duties begin September 1 and continue until June 1. Examinations are held in each January and June, and cadets found proficient in studies and correct in conduct are given the particular standing in their class to which their merits entitle them, while those cadets deficient in either conduct or studies are discharged. From about the middle of June to the end of August cadets live in camp, engaged only in military duties and receiving practical military instruction. Cadets are allowed but one leave of absence during the four years' course, and this is granted at the expiration of the first two years. The pay of a cadet is five hundred and forty dollars per year, and, with proper economy, is sufficient for his support. The number of students at the Academy is usually about three hundred. Upon graduating cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the United States Army. The whole number of graduates from 1802 to 1898 has been three thousand eight hundred and sixty-seven (3.867). It is virtually absolutely necessary for a person seeking an appointment to apply to his Member of Congress. The appointments by the President are usually restricted to sons of officers of the army. The Academy was established by act of Congress in 1802. An annual Board of Visitors is appointed, seven being appointed by the President of the United States, two by the President of the Senate, and three by the Speaker of the House of Representatives. They visit the Academy in June, and are present at the concluding exercises of the graduating class of that year. The Superintendent is Colonel Albert L. Mills, United States Army, and the military and academic staff consists of sixty-two persons. Second Lieutenant Samuel C. Hazzard, First Artillery, is adjutant. The three oldest living graduates of the Military Academy are General George S. Greene, U. S. A. retired, of New Jersey, who was graduated in 1823; Joseph Smith Bryce, of District of Columbia, and Thomas A. Davies, of New York, who were graduated in 1829. United States Naval Academy at Annapolis. THERE are allowed at the Academy one naval cadet for each Member or Delegate of the United States House of Representatives, one for the District of Columbia, and ten at large. The appointment of cadets at large and for the District of Columbia is made by the President. The Secretary of the Navy, as soon after March 5 in each year as possible, must notify in writing each Member and Delegate of the House of Representatives of any vacancy that may exist in his district. The nomination of a candidate to fill the vacancy is made, on the recommendation of the Member or Delegate, by the Secretary. Candidates must be actual residents of the districts from which they are nominated. The course of naval cadets is six years, the last two of which are spent at sea. Candidates at the time of their examination for admission must be not under fifteen nor over twenty years of age and physically sound, well formed, and of robust constitution. They enter the Academy immediately after passing the prescribed examinations, and are required to sign articles binding themselves to serve in the United States Navy eight years (including the time of probation at the Naval Academy), unless sooner discharged. The pay of à naval cadet is five hundred dollars a year, beginning at the date of admission. At the end of the third year the new first class is separated into two divisions, namely: the Line Division and the Engineer Division, the numbers of these divisions being proportioned to the vacancies that have occurred in the several corps during the preceding year. At the end of the six years' course appointments to fill vacancies in the Line and in the Marine Corps are made from the Line Division, and to fill vacancies in the Engineer Corps from the Engineer Division. If, after making assignments as above, there should still be vacancies in one branch and surplus graduates in the other, the vacancies in the former may be filled by assignment to it of surplus graduates from the latter. "At least fifteen appointments from such graduates are made each year. Surplus graduates who do not receive appointments are given a certificate of graduation, an honorable discharge, and one year's sea pay. The Academy was founded in 1845 by the Hon. George Bancroft, Secretary of the Navy in the administration of President Polk. It was formally opened October 10 of that year, with Commander Franklin Buchanan as Superintendent. During the Civil War it was removed from Annapolis, Md., to Newport, R. I., but was returned to the former place in 1865. It is under the direct supervision of the Bureau of Navigation, Navy Department. Rear-Admiral F. V. McNair, United States Navy, is the present Superintendent. Rank. ་་ The Army.

The Congress of the United States on March 8, 1898, added to the artillery force of the army two regiments, designated as the Sixth and Seventh Artillery, and on April 26 increased the enlisted strength of the batteries, troops, and companies of the entire line, besides adding an additional major to each infantry regiment. The strength of the battery, troop, and company at a war standard was fixed as 200 for heavy battery, 176 for light battery, 100 for a troop, and 106 for each infantry company. An additional second lieutenant was added to each battery, but only one first lieutenant was allowed to each. At the end of August the strength of the various organizations was as follows: RELATIVE RANK OF Name, Rank, and Date of Commission. November 1, 1898. MAJOR-GENERALS.
