Secretary Root Ap
proves Papers.
A Washington special says: Secre
tary Root lias approved the action of
I the board of offit ers at West Point
which recommends the dismissal of
five cadets and the suspension of six
others.
This sustains the court of Colonel
Mills and the other officers in the re
cent disturbances at the academy.
Colonel Mills, superintendent of
the military academy, had a long
consultation with the secretary of war
Tuesday relative to recent disorders
among the cadets at West Point.
The papers in the cases of some
cadets who have been tried for of
fenses against the authorities have
been in the department for some time,
but have not been acted upon.
Superintendent Mills explained the
condition at the academy, insisting
that many of the published reports
were exaggerated. The present dif
ficulty grows out of the attempt to
suppress hazing and the restrictions
that have been made in this direction
since Colonel Mills became a super
intendent. The superintendent spoke
In the highest terms of the cadets, and
thought it was only a question of a
short time before the customary con
ditions would be resumed. The mat
ter of discipline was in question, and
that must be maintained. The secre
tary was much interested in the state
ment of Colonel Mills.
General Davis, the next judge ad
vocate of tiie army, who recently has
been stationed at West Point, was
present during the greater portion of
the Interview. The papers in the
cases that have recently been tried
are to he considered and passed upon
by General Davis.
There are a large number of other
cadets upon whom will be afflicted
minor punishments, such as extra
duty, confinement to quarters, depri
vation of holidays and reduction of
(lass rank. It is understood that
Douglas MacArthur, son of Major Gen
eral MacArthur. commanding in the
Philippines, wih. escape with a minor
punishment.
There are two other eourtmartial
cases in the academy pending in the
department where cadets have been
sentenced to dismissal. There is a
rule at the academy that a cadet in
vited out. to dinner can be excused
and leave the post. Two cadets invit
ed each other to dinner and made this
their excuse for absence. Their ruse
was discovered.
CONDITION OF CROPS.
Weekly Report of the Agricultural De
partment at Washington.
Tiio weather bureau’s general sum
mary of the weekly crop conditions is
as follows:
Although frosts occurred in the lake
region, upper Ohio valley and the
northern portion of the middle Atlan
tic states only slight damage resulted,
and as a whole the temperature con
ditions throughout the country were
very favorable. Drought has been
largely relieved in the southern states,
but continues in western and southern
Texas, southern Louisiana and por
tions of Alabama and Florida.
In the states of the lower Missouri
and upper Mississippi and Ohio val
leys corn planting has progressed rap
idly and is nearing completion in
these districts. In the southern states
the crop has been materially improved
by recent rains.
Oats have been injured by dry
weather in the central valleys, and in
the southern states the condition of
the crop is not promising, although
it ts materially improving in Georgia.
An improvement in the condition of
cotton is reported from the Carolinas,
Georgia. Florida. Alabama and por
tions of Texas. The stands are as
yet generally poor, but much of the re
planted is not up.
Transplanting of tobacco has begun
in Maryland and Virginia and will be
gin soon in Kentucky. In Indiana and
Ohio plants are nearly ready to set.
In South Carolina drought prior to re
cent rains seriously injured the stands
of tobacco.

HEIR NOT APPARENT
pneen Draga of Servia Badly
Fools Her Leige Lord.
FOISTS HER SISTER’S BABY
Claimed Youngster as Her Own Off
spring and a Sensational De
noument Has Resulted
From Deception.
A London special says: A remark
able state of affairs in the Servian
royal family was revealed by official
telegrams from Belgrade Friday. The
Vienna newspapers in February an
nounced the accouchement of Queen
Draga, who was married August 5,
1900. v_is was shown to be untrue.
Recently the same papers reported
she was about to be confined. As the
czar was one of the attesting wit
nesses of the marriage, he sent a spe
cial Russian envoy to investigate the
strange rumors. The envoy summoned
a trio of Russian and French special
ists, who declared the queen was not
enciente, and an official notification to
this effect was sent to the diplo
matic corps.
The diagnosis of the doctors, how
ever, does not seem to have satisfied
the royal family, and two specialists
have been summoned from Vienna and
Bucharest to report on the ease.
Beautiful Cradle Sent.
Costly gifts have been pouring into
Belgrade from the people of Servia in
anticipation of tne expected event.
The city of Nisch presented the royal
couple with a beautiful cradle.
The scandal becomes still more in
explicable. According to the Vienna
correspondent of The Daily Telegraph,
the doctors attending Queen Draga
have issued a bulletin declaring that
the “case is peculiar and it is not im
possible that the queen is in a delicate
condition.”
The Vienna papers Friday night re
ported that Queen Draga was seriously
ill, with seve al physicians in consul
tation, and luat the case would re
quire protracted treatment.
From Servia comes all kinds of ru
mors. According to one story a revo
lution is imminent, and Russian
agents are inciting the population
against the obrenovios dynasty.
According to another report. King
Alexander is said to oe furiously an
gry, and if he is able to prove that
the queen, instead of being, as is al
leged, a victim to hysteria, has inten
tionally deceived him, he will divorce
and banish her from the country and
posibly will himself abdicate.
Foisted Sister’s Child.
The greatest indignation has been
aroused in Belgrade by a report that
Queen Draga failed in a deliberate at
tempt to foist upon the king the .child
of her sister as her own.
The following explanation of the sit
uation in the Servian royal family may
be regarded as authentic:
The physicians have presented a
written statement according to which
there is no immediate prospect of
Queen Draga’s accouchement. She is
certainly not in an advanced delicate
condition, such as would have been
the case had the opinion given last
September by Dr. Caulet, the French
physician, been correct. The physi
cians proceed to explain that Dr. Cau
let may have been correct, but that
natural progress may have been sub
sequently interrupted. In conclusion
they say that the queen’s present con
dition is in no w’ay disquieting either
with regard to her health or physical
constitution, and that consequently
there is no reason why she should not
eventually oecome a mother.
A Vienna dispatch says: The semi
official Fremdenblatt, in an inspired
article, attributes to disappointment
the so-called “fausse grossesse," and
declares there is no ground for cred
iting the rumors accusing Queen Dra
ga of w'illful deccpuon.

THE NATIONAL CAME.
Gammons, the Boston substitute out
fielder, is said to excel Barry iu all
round proficiency.
Bucknell College lias a pitcher
named Hess, who, it is said, shows in
dication of being another Matthewson.
Douglass is still the hard-luck catch
er of the profession. Foul tips rap
him with frequency aud force from
toes to neck.
Several young League pitchers are
coining to tiie front in impressive style
this year, notably McCann, Donovan,
Matthewson and White.
“All wars come to an end either by
one side being defeated or by arbi
tration,” says F. A. Abell, speaking of
the National League-American League
situation.
Jacklitsch, tiie Brooklynite, witli the
Philadelphia National League Club, is
one of the most promising catchers
that lias broken into fast company iu
many a day.
Since Young went to the American
League Nichols, Tannehill, Cunning
ham, Rusie, Kennedy and Breitenstein
are about the only veterans left in the
National League ranks.
Nelson, of tiie New Yorks, is show
ing ins ability at second base, and it
looks as if that bad hole in the in
field had been filled up. He rarely
misses a ball, and when he does he re
covers in time to put the runner out.
Pitcher Dunleavy, of the Amherst
College team, cannot play in any moro
championship games because be has
played as a professional in the Con
necticut State League. Captain Luf
kin, of Wesley, and Heffernan, of Will
iams, also retire for the same cause.
Sharpe, the Yale first baseman and
pitcher, is likely to attract offers from
professional clubs if he keeps on at liis
present gait. Slutrpe’s batting in four
successive games recently was re
markable. He made a total of eleven
hits in tiie four games, including six
two-baggers and two triples.

BOMBARDED WITH FLOWERS.
President Reviews Fiftv Tt,„
Happy School Chilif, JlT*"'’
San Francisco.
At San Francisco Tuesday Presl .
dent McKinley reviewed nearly 50 000
school children. Both sides of Van
Ness avenue, from Jackson to Market
streets, were lined with cheering and
enthusiastic little ones as the presi
dent and members of his party and lo
cal officials in carriages were driven
from Jackson to Market and back the
avenue to Jackson. The president was
the recipient of a continuous ovation
Almost every child had been provided
with a good sized American flag and
their voices and flags were worked in
unison. Each little girl wore white
and most of them had red sashes’.
Thousands of youngsters had gath
ered large bouquets, whhh they
threw at the president as he passed
Half way between California snd Sac
ramento streets the president’s car
riage and the other conveyances came
to a standstill.
“Speech, speech,” rang out along
the avenue and the children swarmed
about by the thousands. The presi
dent spoke briefly, saying in part:
“I desire in a single moment to ex
press the pleasure which has been
given to me to meet the 45,000 school
children of the city of San Francisco.
It has given me an introduction into
the countless homes of your great city
and has permitted me to witness the
sunshine which this vast number of
young people bring to the firesides of
the city. I know of no richer posse
sion than great scholarship, no nobler
ambition than to obtain it. We can
not all he great scholars, but we can
all have good scholarship. I want to
assure you young people that there is
nothing so essential to your easy ad
vancement and success in after life
as a good education.
“If those of us who have battled in
the rivalries and contentions of a busy
world could go back to our youth and
school days, we would embrace cheer
fully our neglected opportunities and
pursue them with industry and de
light. If the testimony of the active
men in San Francisco and of the coun
try could be taken it would be uniform
in the declaration of the embarrass
ments under which they have suffered
from scanty mental training in youth.
“Nothing has given me more pleas
ure in my long trip from the Atlantic
to the Pacific than the scene which
we have witnessed here this morn
ing—every child waving the flag of
our faith and our hope, and every lit
tle heart filled with love of country.
(Great applause.) What an army for
liberty and union and civilization!
Why, we have in the public schools
of the United States fourfold more
children than there were people when
this government was founded, and all
of them proud of their country and
al! of them revering its institutions
and all of them meaning that when
the time comes for them to take the
responsibilities of administration they
will be prepared to do their duty and
pass along this free government with
ever-increasing virtue, intelligence
and patriotism. (Enthusiastic ap
plause.) I thank you and wish for all
of you the realization of every worthy
ambition.” (Great applause.)
After reviewing the school children,
President McKinley and party drove
to the presidio. General Shafter and
•members of his staff were on hand to
welcome the commander in chief, and
he was escorted about he grounds
and shown the camps where thou
sands of volunteers going to and com
ing from the Philippines have been
quartered, as well as the camps of the
regulars.
TYPEWRITERS PROHIBITED.
Turkish Government Officials Shy at

The customs authorities at Constan
tinople have prohibited the entry of
typewriters into Turkey and 200 ma
chines now in the custom house have
been ordered returned to the consign
ors.
The authorities have taken up the
peculiarly characteristic attitude that
there is no distinct feature about type
writing by which the authorship could
be recognized or a person using a ma
chine be traced, and that consequently
any one is able to put in type seditious
writings without fear of compromis
ing himself.
