WEST POINT.
Report of the Superintendent of the
Military Academy.

Report of the superintendent of the
Military Academy.
WASHINGTON, Nov. IA The annual
report of the Superintendent of the West
Point Military Academy says that the per-
centage of sick was One-fifth of per cent.
during the year. The usual practical in
structiOn in the three arms of the service
has been given with as good results as
was ever attained before. This year, for
the first time, instruction in swimming has
been given the fourth class, and with two
exceptions all are now good swimmers.
The instruction in practical military en-
gineering has been most thorough. Prac-
tical instruction has also been given
to the graduating and first classes in
bridge building. The general tone and
discipline of the cadets is good. The
Superintendent promises to take strong
measures to prevent haZing.
The Superintendent says that while his
predecessors for the last TWENTY-FIVE
years have reported at one time or an
other that the practice of hazing had been
broken up, it is his experience that they
have without exception been mistaken.

A FALL TO DEATH.
Brother O'ConnelI of LOyala College
Meets a Tragic End.

Meets Tragic End.
BALTIMORE, Nov. IA shocking acci-
dent, involving the almost instant death
of Brother O'COnnell, of Loyala College,
occurred at that institution shortly before
noon to-day. Brother O'Connell, who has
been lay member of the Society of Jesus
for the past fOrty-eight years, was by
trade a carpenter, and occasionally did
some trifling jobs of repairing around the
college. A short while before the accident
he ascended to the second story and began
putting in pane of glass which had
been broken. While thus engaged he
leaned over the window sill, and, los
ing his balance, fell to the ward
below. The whirling sound of the falling
body and the crash on the paved court
yard below was the first intimation that
the priests and others had of the Distress
ing affair. A physician was called, but
before his arrival O'COnnell died. Among
those first to reach the dying man was
Rev. Father Clarke, who administered the
last rites of the church, the injured man
breathing his last just as the venerable
priest pronounced the absolution. The
deceased, Richard O'COnnell, was 70 years
old, native of Ireland, and has been an
inmate of Loyala College more than
twenty years. He formerly resided at St.
Johns College, Philadelphia. The funeral
and interment Will be at Woodstock Col

Irving and Vanderbilt.
Nelo York World.


l hear good story of Irving and Van
derbilt. Irving is in the habit of inviting
to his charming suppers at the Lyceum,
after the performance, all Americans who
are introduced to him. Summer before
last he met Mr.. w. II. Vanderbilt when
he was over in London. ANY one who
knows the two men, or even is aware of
their manners and abilities, need not be
told that the two could never be very con-
genial, as there is nothing in common be-
tween them and they are different in eY-
cry respect. At the time Irving contem-
plated flying visit of one month to this
country, and Vanderbilt invited him to
visit him at Saratoga. Irving, how
ever, could not complete his engage
ments. Vanderbilt renewed the
acquaintance with the distinguished actor
during his visit the past summer, and in
yited him to stop at his Fifth avenue man.
sion during his engagement in this city.
The millionaire would doubtless be glad
to patrOniZe, or, to use less offensive and
more expressive term, take under his
wing. the actor; but imagine the actor,
who in London fraterniZes with the best
in the land, making an intimate and being
the guest of a boor! Vandy has tried
very hard to pass as the patron of the
actor, but Irving is too sensible to per-
NIT anything of the kind, and the other
sulks, and Abbey, though anxious to Sc
cure his good will for the opera, cannot
and dare not interfere.

CITY OF MEXICO, Nov. 14.--Interviews
with high officials develop the following
facts regarding the English debt: Mexico
acknowledges an Indebtedness, principal

the purpose of paying the first years in
terest and reimbursing the bondholders'
committee. subsequently Congress au-
thorIzed the President to settle the
debt on given basis. When the
text of the agreement arrived from
London the President refused to
approve the additional "a, ,00O,0 600. Nego-
tiatiOns for new agreement were then
begun, but failed. Two weeks ago the
President instructed Carlos Rivas, the
Mexican agent in London, to offer f1S.-
100000 in bonds instead of $50, 900.
The offer was refused. Rivas was in
structed last week to suspend negotiations.
