Or, May IL (Special.) John I May, adjutant-reneral of Ore ron. submitted his resignation to Gov ernor Olcott today, to become effective June 1. The srovernor will announce the a-p-polntment ot a successor within the next few days. In submitting his resig-nation. Colonel May told the eovernor he desired to re-enter the service of the Southern Pacific company, which he left at the outbreak of the war. Upon his return from Franca this sprinjr he was granted a three months' leave of ab sence from the railroad company, and this leave of absence expires on June 1 Colonel May waa appointed adiutant- g-eneral on April 1 this year, and dur ing; that time has brought about a re organization of tha state's military forces. In a final report to the gov ernor ha nrges that the office or adjutant-general b removed from Portland to Balam in the Interest of economy. He also recommends the ap pointment of an armory board to have charg of all armories throughout the state. When Colonel May waa tendered the appointment of adjutant-general he was loath to accept, aa It waa his desire to return to his old position with the Southern Pacific in whose service he had been for the past SO years," said the governor In comment ing upon the resignation. "I personally saw J. P. O'Brien and arranged with him for aecurtng Colonel Mays services for 90 days. Ke has served this time and wishes to retire. I am reluctant to lose him. bnt tn Jus tlce to both Colonel May and his em ployers, I cannot but consent. Colonel May has rendered most valuable serv ice to the state in the organization of Rational guard. SUCCESSOR SPECTJIaATIOX IS ON Colonel George A. White, Now Over seas, Is Suggested. Announcement yesterday of the resig nation of Adjutant-General John I May, of the Oregon national guard. caused much speculation as to who will be his successor. The duties of the of fice devolve upon Major A. A. Hall, as sistant adjutant-general, under military rules, but it is anticipated that the suc cessor may he Lieutenant-Colonel George A. White, former adjutant-general, whose return to Oregon within 30 days is expected. Colonel White has been detailed with the headquarters staff in Francs dur ing most of the time the 3d Oregon men were overseas. He resigned the office of adjutant-general in order to go abroad, and it haa been tacitly under stood that he would be restored to the position on his return. In a letter re ceived by Adjutant-General May was contained the information that Colonel White was then at St. Nazarre awaiting transport, and his early arrival In New York is anticipated. Notwithstanding the fact that as ad jutant-general of the Oregon national guard for the past three months he has been Brigadier-General John May, It is as Colonel May, commander of the Third Oregon, that the man who has resigned the office to enter private life will be known. It was as colonel that he went overseas, leaving his position as trainmaster for the Southern Pa cific company at Roseburg at the call of bis country, and at the head of his command, the 162d Infantry, .be came back to Portland and was mustered out of service with his men at Camp Lewis. Tomorrow he will return to new duties with the Southern Pacific as assistant division superintendent, with head quarters at Portland. VsderitsDiilsc With Governor. It waa in harmony with an under standing with Governor Olcott when the appointment as adjutant-general was accepted, three months ago, that the resignation was made effective to day. The task of reorganizing the na tional gunrd was taken up as a tem porary duty, and leave of absence for that purpose was granted by the South ern Pacific company through Federal Manager O'Brien, the veteran officer bein? anxious to get back Into railroad service, in which he had been active for a great many yearn. In submitting his resignation tha adjutant-general made recommenda tions for several conservation meas ures, including the removal of head- Quarters to Salem, or rather the clos ing of the Portland office, since the of fice is officially at Salem. This was recommended as a measure of economy which would effect a saving of $200 monthly in the expense of the military establishment. The location of the of fice at Salem, says the report, would better co-ordinate the operation of the office with other departments ot the state and brlncr it in closer touch with the commander-in-chief. Armory Board Asked. It is further recommended that an armory board be created to have gen eral control and maintainance of all armories, and that the fund for opera tion of the board be provided from rentals paid by troops for the use of armory buildings, which he suggests should be paid from the maintainance allowances for organizations.

Epesusea Are Redaced, Expenses of 11600 a month have been reduced to $800 under the command of Colonel May, and this will ba raduoed to 1800 if tha of floe is closed in Port land, according to tha report. Tha present military force of the state of Oregon is approximately 1700 officers and men. Existing defects in the guard were cured to permit recognition by tha federal government.
