In 1893, the U.S. Navy began paying chief petty officers based on their value to the service rather than their classification, with machinist chiefs receiving $70 per month and other chiefs receiving between $50-65 depending on their perceived worth. This pay system lasted until the early 20th century when pay became tied to classification. The Navy also established the chief petty officer classification in 1893, initially including just eight ratings.
