CADET m
FOUGHT BOQZ
Describes Affair to Investigating
Committee.
ABOUT ROUNO AND A HALF-
Struck Booz Over the Stomach.
Testimony Is Add uced Showing
the Prevalence of Fighting.
West Point, N. Y., Jan. io.—Be
fore the members ot the congress
ional committee investigating the
charges of hazing at the military
academy Cadet William R. Betti
son, of Kentucky, testified that
Cadet Breth was his classmate and
that Cadet Booz was a fourth
class man, while he (the witness)
was a third-class man. He never
knew of Breth being hazed. Wit
ness said he knew of five fights be
tween cadets during his first year
and was present at two of them.
He said there were nine fights
during the session of 1899-1900
and seven during the present sess
ion. He said none of these fights
had been investigated by the au
thorities. He was the chairman of
the “scrapping committee” which
decided when a fight was to be ar
ranged.
Bettison described the fights as
bare knuckle contests under Mar
quis of Queensbury rules, except
that the rounds were two minutes
each. He said they were nearly
all finish fights.
‘‘Then you hold fights of a bru
tal nature which the laws of forty
one out of the forty-five states in
the union have prohibited by law?”
said Mr. Driggs.
Bettison made no reply.
? Mr. Driggs then inquired if haz
ing or assisting at fights of cadets
was violating the oath administer
ed on his entering the academy.
After some evasion the witness
said that violation of the academy
regulations were not considered by
the cadets as violations of the ar
ticles of war and are not looked
upon as military disobedience.
Bettison told the story of his cor
recting former Cadet 800/, for im
properly patrolling his post and
acknowledged that this was one of
the causes of Booz’s being called
out. He also explained that Booz
had made an untruthful reply to a
complaint made against him by
Cadet Caples. Booz, he said, also
made an improper remark to an
upper class man when spoken to
and in consequence of all three
causes he was “called out.”
Cadet Bettison was on the stand
for over four hours and prior to be
ing excused Chairman Dick asked
him if he had anything further to
say. He replied.
“I want to say, sir, that the dif
ference between the hazing of a
man here and at college is that in
colleges freshmen are hazed by
sophomores in a spirit of mischief
and sometimes hands are laid on
th em brut illy. Here we never lay
hands on a man except in the case
of a fight. Our hazing is specifi
cally for the purpose of making a
fourth-class man realize the neces
sity of prompt and unquestioned
obedience.
The committee adjourned until
7:30 o’clock.
NIGHT SESSION.
The committee resumed the in
vestigation at 7:40 p. in., and Cadet
William P. Ennis, of Colorado, a
cadet at large, who stands four
teenth in the present first-clafcs,
was called.
He was class president of the
third class during the summer en
eampment of 1898. He said there
were six fights in that year. Most
of the fights at the post took place
on Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
The witness had a rather bad
quarter of an hour with Mr. Driggs,
who questioned him in regard to
the former Cadets Albert and Huet
zler. Ennis acknowledged that he
said it would be a good thing to
give these men a sufficient number
of demerits to force them out of the
academy. Both of them are now
out of the academy, Huetzler on
account of demerits and Albert for
-deficiency in studies.
Ennis made no secret of the fact
that he felt that the men should be
got rid of and reiterated this senti
ment very distinctly on the stand
in reply to Congressmen Driggs.
Wanger and Clayton. He was in
a position as corporal in the com
pany to report infractions on the
parts of Albert and did so on ev
ery occasion but never unfairly or
unjustly. The witness, in reply to
Congressman Smith, again
made similar statements;
much to the surprise of many who
heard him. Gen. Dick asked Col.
Clayton if he had any more ques
tions to ask the witness and the
■colonel said:
‘T have nothing more to ask, but
I would advise this young man 10
revi-e his ideas if he intends to go
into the army.”
Chairman Dick then took the
witness in hand and requested him
to describe all forms of exercising.
The general called off all the well
known exercises from a list, and
Ennis explained them. He added
anew one which is called “swim
ming to Newburgh.” This exer
cise consists of a man lying on his
stomach while he goes through
the motions of a swimmer. These
maneuvers last until the hazers
think the hazed has gone far en
ough. The witness in detail told
the committee the process bv which
a cadet qualified in “sammy" and
in “prunes,” as well as other com
modities in the mess hall. Ennis
said that he heard that Breth had
fainted from hazing He also
heard of Cadet McArthur’s having
convulsions after being rigorously
exercised.
CADET WHO FOUGHT BOOZ.
Cadet Frank Keller; of Missouri,
said he was the man who fought
Cadet Booz. In telling of the fight,
Keller said:
“The fight lasted about a round
and a half and I hit Booz a blow
over the stomach. It was not a
hard blow and did not knock him
down. Booz went to the ground'
but had sufficient wind left to say:
“ ‘The wind is knocked out of
me.’
“Did you have any other fights?”
was asked.
“Yes sir, one ”
“With whom?”
“Cadet Williams.”
“Who won?”
“I got licked, sir.”
“That was your last fight?” sug
gested Gen. Dick.
“Yes, sir.”
“How long did the fight last?”
“A round and a half.”
“Just as long as the Booz fight?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Where were you hit?”
“In the end of the first round I
was hit in the eye and went down
and don’t remember any more.”
“Then you were knocked out?”
“Yes, sir.”
“You went on for the second
round when your second brought
you to?”
“Yes, sir.”
“You don’t remember anything
about the second round, then?”
“No, sir.”
“Wneredid the final blow land?”
“I don’t recollect, sir; I was out
and that settled it,” was the reply
of the man who knocked out Booz.
The committee adjourned to 9
o’clock tomorrow morning.
Compliment To Maj- Thomas-
The Christain Advocate, in dis
cussing the ru 11101 ed resignation
of President Thomas, of the Nash
ville, Chattanooga & St. Railway
Company, says:
“Two or three times within re
cent months the rumor has gained
some currency that Maj. John
Thomas, Sr., would resign from
the presidency of the Nashville
Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway.
Whether there is any thing in this
rumor we are unable to say, but
we trust that it is entirely without
foundation. Maj. Thomas is one
of the most capable railroad men
in the United States. By steady
steps and simply because of his
proven ability he worked his way
from subordinate positions to the
headship of the great system which
he controls. While he takes the
utmost care of the rights and in
terests of his company, he does not
lose site of his thousands of em
ployes or of the general public.
We doubt whether there is a man
in any position on his lines who
would not feel perfectly free to go
to him in person about a matter of
serious importance. Everybody,
from the car greaser up belieyes
that he is a just and kind-hearted
man, and everybody has a good
word to speak for him. If among
the captains of industry there were
more who had his spirit we should
hear a great deal less than we do
about the difficulties between capi
tal and labor.”

CHINESE DRILLING-
A Great Army of 35,000 Men Be-
In* Organized.
Pekin, Jan. 10. —A Chinaman
from Sian Fu, where the court is at
present, says that within the city
85,000 Chinese troops are drilling
continuously and the majority of
them are armed with modern rifles.
He says that the feeling of the peo
ple there is bitterly anti-foreign,
and that they believe that they can
meet the allies in the open, fight
and defeat them.
The ministers are considerably
astonished over the Chinese grant
to Russia of a concession north of
the Pei Ho at Tien T.-dn, as co**’-
pared with the British and French
concessions combinen. Tue grant,
according to the Russians, was
made voluntarily for services in
endeavoring to bring about peace.
The ministers thuik that the con
cession constitutes good pay when
considered in addition to the an
nexation of ail Manchuria.
Li Hung Chang believes that he
will receive a favorable reply re
garding the signing of the agree
ment tomorrow. Senor Corrogan,
the Spanish minister, thinks that
the negotiations will commence at
Pekin, possibly ending in Europe.
M. DeGiers thinks the negotiations
will end at The Hague.
DIES FROM THE PRICK OF A PIN
Millionaire Tailor of Cleveland, Ex
pires From Blood Poisoning.
Chicago, Jan. 5—A special to
the Chicago Record from Cleve
land, 0., says: A Reinheimer, a
millionaire merchant tailor, died
this afternoon in terrible agony,
the result of the prick of a pin.
Three of Cleveland’s most prom
inent physicians did everything in
their power to save his life, but
the merchant died while they were
deciding whether or not to ampu
tate his hand.
On Monday night he personal
ly closed his tailoring establish
ment in Euclid avenue, as had
been his custom for thirty-three
vears. In trying the rear door he
received a slight scratch from a
tailor’s pin, which had been placed
there to keep the knob on the door.
In the morning his left hand was
swollen and Dr. A. Peskind, the
family physician, was called in.
The physician diagnosed the case
as blood poisoning, assuring Mr.
Reinheimer that it was not serious.
The hand continued to swell, and
today three physicians had about
concluded to amputate the hand,
when he succumbed to a fit of
fainting and expired.
New England Textile Mills and
Their Rivals-
Boston Journai.
There is food for sober thought
for New England in the summary
of the new textile mills of 1900, as
presented in the Boston Journal of
Commerce and Textile Industries.
Only three new mills were un
dertaken through all last year in
Maine; none in Vermont; none in
New Hampshiie; none in Connect
icut; only eight in Rhode Island
and only six in Massachusetts, or
seventeen for all the New England
states. But sixteen new mills
were undertaken in the one south
ern state of Alabama; forty-one in
Georgia; forty-one in North Caro
lina, and forty-seven in South Car
olina. Tennessee had eleven new
mills, or almost tw'ice as many as
Massachusetts, Mississippi had
eight, or as many as Rhode Island;
Virginia had eight also, and even
far away Texas has seven, or twice
as many as Maine,
Moreover, many of these new
southern mills represent a very
large capitalization. They are
not merely local industries. One
North Carolina mill is capitalized
at $1,400,000; another at $1,000,-
060. There are dozens of mills
with a capital of $250,000 and up
ward. Most of the southern mills,
of course, are designed for the man
ufacture of cotton cloth, but some
of them will make hosiery and
other knit goods, and even woolens.

CHINA’S PRESENT ATTITUDE,
Emrero 's Brother Talks of the
I- duiiiib Toward Foreigners
Pekin, January 10. —Prince
Chun, a brother of the emperor,
who is in Pekin, in whose honor
the Germans will hold a review,
says that though he does not rep
resent the court officials, he knows
his brother is in favor of return
ing to Pekin. Indeed, the emperor
w'rote to Prince Ching recently and
asked if his apartments were in a
fit state for his early return.
Prince Chun says that the Chi
nese have a side question. The
foreigners do not seem to realize
that China objects to the mainte
nance of the legation guard as more
than a purely temporary measure,
because there is no necessity for it.
The Boxer movement, he asserts,
was a purely patriotic one, mean
ing China for Chinese. For many
years the nations begged for trad
ing privileges, having obtained
which and waxed rich from the
profits thereof, they forced unde
sirable treaties upon China, with
threats of confiscation of the choic
est parts of the country. The
slightest riot has been made the
occasion to acquire territory and
obtain valuable concessions. Nat
urally, even a peaceable people will
turii at last.
The people of China, Prince
Chun further declares, have been
gradually worked up over the re
cent loss of territory at Wei Hai
W ei, Port Arthur and elsewhere,
and also over the granting of
rights and honors to Catholic mis
sionaries by officials. All Oriental
nations are liable periodically, the
same as individuals, to run amuck.
The Chines 0 , according to Prince
Chun, misbehaved no worse than
did the French during the Cele
brated revolution. The Chinese,
he says, are the most peaceable
race on the earth and such trouble
as recently occurred is not likely
to happen again for centuries. He
believes the emperor is friendly to
foreigners who desire to preserve
the integrity of the empire.
He says that it is a mistake to
attribute unlimited power to the
Empress Dowager, though she nat
urally has that influence with the
emperor which the Chinese always
concede to relations who are their
seniors, and which is beautifully
shown by their veneration of their
ancestors.
