DISCIPLINE AT ANNAPOLIS.
The Course at the United states Navs
Academy Very Severe.

The discipline at the United States
Naval academy is Of the strictcst kind,
says the Boston Herald.
Some Of the punishments for aca-
domic misdemeanors are not only
unique but strikingly appropriate aud
effective. When a cadet is guilty OF
tardiness at any formation he is ro-
quired, for a given period subsequent.
TO report to the officer in charge hall
an hour before the time Of the forma.
ton. standing by until II takes place.
Those who oversleep themselves 10 the
morning are compelled for month TO
turn out one hour before reveille, aud.
at the first note Of the bugle, to report
themselves and the room ready for in
spection.
Visiting during study hours is pun
ished by solitary confinement on the
prison ship Santee. as n corrective for
too great sociability. InattenlioI al
drill carries with it the penalty OF one
or more extra drills during recreation
hours. Habitual untidiness is cured
by requiring the careless cadet to re-
port for inspection to the officer in
charge every hour for a number OF
days. usually month.
Should non-regulation clothing be
found in a cadets possession it is seized
by the authorities as contraband. and
not returned until the offender leaves
the academy. 1t is thus difficult to
appear out Of uniform.
But the worst punishment Of all is
that visited upon whole class or the
entire battalion. and is inflicted only in
cases of insubordiuatiou on the part OF
such large bodies. In such cases the
guilty class, or all the cadets, are de-
priyed oftthe privilege of giving hops
and entertainments. and. worse vet.
they are forbidden to walk with or to
call upon The fair sex. This depriva-
tion generally weakens them, aud dis
cipliue triumphs.

AMERICANS REPORTED IMPRISONED.
It is reported in newspaper circles that
nsws has been received in Washington to
the effect that in retaliation for the New
Orleans lynchIng, eighteen American citi.
zens have been seized at Florence and cast
into prison. aud that similar seizures have
occurred In other parts Of Italy.
RUMoRs OF oUTRAGEs.
Late this afternoon certain erroneous
reports were in circulation respecting
alleged outrages on American citizens in
Italy. Careful inquiry at the department
Of stae fails to disclose more than two
complaints of this character during the
past six months. Moreover, they appear to
be devoid of features calculated to give
rise to international complications. In one
case an American citizen who was in the
habit OF crossing the Piedmont boundary
line in frequent drives was suspected
OF smuggling. and when he refused to allow
the Italian customs officers to search his
carriage for contraband articles he was ar
rested and made a bitter complaint
Of discourtesy. In the other case
an Italian returned from the United
States was arrested for alleged brigandage
in 1865. 1t appeared, upon consulting the
records, that he had been included in an
amnesty proclamation, SO he was released
just as our state department discovered he
had been fraudulently naturalized in this
country when he had resided here only two

EARL GRANVILLE DEAD.

A Sketch of His Career IN the Public
Affairs of England.
LONDON, March 31.-Earl Granville died
this afternoon.
George Leveson Cover, second Earl OF
Granville, was born in London May IL,
1875 He entsred public life in 1885 az an
attache Of the British legation in Paris. He
entered parliament in 1886, and became
under secretary Of state for foreign affairs.
He succeeded to his title in January, 1S46.
In 1851 he entered the Russell cabinet, and
held the seals of the foreign office, and In
1859 was made lord president of the coun-
ell, which Office he held at numerous times
until 1868. In 1868 he became member
of Mr.. Gladstone's cabinet as score
tary OF state for the colonies
In 1870 he became secretary for for
eign affairs. With other members of the
Gladstone cabinent he resigned in 1874.
On leaving Office he took the temporary
Leadership Of the liberal party and led rhe
opposition IN the House Of Lords. In 1880
he again became foreign secretary under
Mr.. Gladstone. He retired with his chief
in 1885, but returned once more as colonial
secretary in 1885, resigniug again with his
colleagues in August Of the latter year.

Aspero Marchesi was released, as the evil
dence against him was not sufficient to hold
him.
ONLY ONE LEFT.
The release Of the remaining men to-day
leaves the parish prison free OF all but one
OF those Italians who had been arrested for
the crime. Immediately after the motion
had been granted, ex-Alderman Pieterno
signed the bonds for his brother, and Caruso
V. Mascara, who keeps a vegetable market,
signed Sanzeri's. Natali signed his own
bond, and Pietzo, who appears to be friend
less, is still in Jail
NO CHANGE IN THE CASE.
Attorney General Rogers said the aspect
OF the case was unchanged. The matter is
now entirely in the hands of the grand jury.
Until the grand jury submitted a report
he could not state what the line Of the prose-
cution would be. He himself could not
say who would be indicted, or whether
any one would be indicted. The state OF
Louisiana, he felt. was fully capacitated to
enforce its laws. he said there had been no
new correspondence between the state and
Secretary Blaine. Not word had been re-
ceived from Secretary Blaine since Gov.
Nichols wrote his reply, and Gov. Nichols
had sent no supplemental communication TO
the state department..
An Associated Press reporter called at the
residence OF Gov. Nicholls this evening. The
governor was Ill and had retired for the
night, and could not be seen.

when asked how they viewed the matter.
They explained that for years past, in the
face Of opposition and derision from msm-
bers OF congress representing constituencies
located wen In the interior of the country
and in a position safe from outside attack
they had persistently pointed out the need
for a navy that would be creditable 70 and
a defense for the country.
THE PLEA FOR COAST DEFENsEs.
Their colleagues in the army had begged
for coast defenses, and yet here we were
with an international affair on our hands,
and but a mere skeleton OF a navy and maps
of projected coast defenseS nt our back. To
the would-be economists who have opposed
their views, these officers point to the
French spoliation claims-aggregating mill
ions OF dollars-which we are Just
beginning to settle, ard which found
their birth in an incident some
what like this. In that case the United
States government disregarded the treaty
stipulations, the French government re-
called its minister and, without a declara-
ton of war on either side, for two years
French men-of-war preyed upon American
commerce.
SECRETARY BAYARD INTERVIEWED.
WILMINGTON, DBL, March 31.-The
Morning Netcs tomorrow will print the
following interview with ex-Secretary Of
State Bayard concerning the recall
Of the Italian minister: "There is no
cause for an anticipation of war in
this action OF the italian government
The suspension Of diplomatic relations
does not indicate that crisis exists between
the nations. 1t is highly probable that
some error exists in the explanation Of the
minister's recall. The King of Italy would
be in great hurry II he broke of diplo-
matte relations at this time,
TIME ENOUGH NOT ALLOWED.
"The act complained of happened only two
weeks ago and, as understand the situa-
ton, the state department has promised a
full investigation and explanation OF the
occurrence. Time for doing that has not
been allowed aud it would be very unwise
to suspend amicable relations between the
governments pending an investigation, as
that would stop all proceedings in the mat
ter. II Baron Fava has been recalled 1t is
probable that he has done something to
displease the king and he has simply been
relieved. This is indicated by his leaving
the secretary in charge of the legation"
AN IMPORTANT FACT.
Ex-Secretary Bayard called attention to
the fact that there was nothing in the body
of the dispatch that warranted the assertion
that the minister had demanded his pass
ports. Such demand would be made to
insure his personal safety IN leaving the
country. He said there is no necessity
for that course, and do not
believe that he has made a demand. II
there was real cause for war there would
be greater necessity for the minister re-
naming in this country, aud for this reason
think the reasons for Baron Favas recall
are personal ones. IL Is absurd to regard
the recall of the minister or suspension Of
diplomatic relations as an evidence of war.
