the breast, which put an end to the en-

conscious from the field. Lopez Will

LONDON. Dec. 31.-Baroness DeRoque,
mother Of Mrs. Maybrick, states to-day
that her daughters health is improving.
The Exchange Telegraphy compan also

that the hemorrhages with which she was
recently attacked, and which caused re-
ports that she was dying were caused by
herself and not by the ravages of con-

Tbs Diver Ascertains tho Exact Position

Diver Christensen again descended to
the sunken tug Mystic yesterday after

descended and was below the surface of
the water something over twenty minutes.

When he returned to the surfaces he
brought up with him the Mystic's lead

kept to serve as evidence of his descent.
Mr.. Christensen says the Mystic stands
upright on the keel, with her bow toward
the shore. He found it very dark at the
bottom and he could see absolutely moth

WILL FIGHT ENFORCED DRILL

University students Preparing for An
other Appeal to the COurts.
Tho hanging in efigy Of Sergeant
Hooker of the University cadets on Sun-
day night was not taken cognizance of at
yesterday's meeting of the faculty, as
none OF the professors saw the figure. nor
was the matter brought to their attention
by any one. The perpetrators are not
known. and they are supposed to be few
in number
However, . large number Of the students,
and perhaps . majority of them, are OPP
posed to the compulsory military drill for
various reasons, and this opposition may
take the form of legal resistance to the
enforcement of the rule requiring the
male students to participate in it. It is
rumored that subscription paper is now
being quietly passed around for signatures
among those opposed to the drill piedging
the signers to contribute toward fund to
employ legal assistance in their OPPOSE
ton. Whether enough money will be
raised to make test case this term or not
is not yet known. but many Of the
students are outspoken in saying that
they will at least make . stand against
the obnoxious rule at the beginning of tho
next sc0OOi year.
The students once before attempted
legal resistance and the matter was
brought before Judge L;chtenberg, but the
faculty evaded the direct issue by alleg-
ing that there was no rule requiring the
students to drill under the infantry drill
regulations IF the United States army. but
that all that was required by the faculty.
was that the students engage in calls
thenic exercises, which consisted only of
what is known as the School of the
soldier" in the infantry drill regulations
Of the United Ststes army, and that there
was no requirement that there should be
any manual of arms or drill to proceed
further than the setting up" exercises.
The students alleged that it was mill
tary drill conducted according to the
infantry drill regulations of the United
States army. Judge Lichtenbesg decided
in favor of the faculty, not upon the law
relating to the matter. but upon the ques-
ton of fact as to whether II was q mill
tary drill or not. The question of fact was
not decided by jury and the testimony
on the question was conflicting. The
students now believe that they will have
no difficulty in showing that it is a mill
tary dr,ll, in fact and that the law pro-
hibits the faculty from making participa-
ton in such drill compulsory.
