ed Two Years.

The Academic Course to BE Extend
ed Two Years.
ANNAPOLIS, Nd, June Z, 1S94.-An ex-
tension of the academic course at the United
States Naval Academy from four to six
years will probably be ordered by the Secre-
tary of the Navy. Superintendent Phythian
has furnished data to the board of visitors
for its final report, and, among other things,
made the longer term recommendation. At
present cadets spend four years at
the academy and two years at sea. The sug-
gestions to abolish sea service and make a
six years term at the academy were discussed
by the board of visitors, last night and
adopted. If these recommendations arc APP
proved by Secretary Herbert, the, cruise
will begin the latter part of May and
terminate in October. The board
candidates be admitted at the age of fifteen
to eighteen, instead Of from fifteen to
twenty, as at present. In this years gradu,.
ating class it is thought w. P. Roberta9f
Mississippi, who will graduate Non1, and
Daniel Fl. Cox, of New York, will be sept
to Greenwich, and that Thomas G. Roberts,
of Alabama will go to Glasgow.

MRS. WHEELER'S DEFENCE.
She Makes Answer to Howard P.,s
Accusations.

Accusations.
Mrs. Annie E. Wheeler of Oakland ave
nue., who is defendant in a suit for divorce
brought by her husband, Howard +.
Wheeler, has filed her answer and at the
same time a cross bill, in which she accuses
her husband of being criminally intimate
with Annie NJ. Prince, who was some time
ago an employee of Morrow, Day & Co. In
her answer she denies the accusation made
by her husband that she has been intimate
with Lawyer w. VanWyck of Brooklyn,
and that she has ever d~isregarded her mar
rage vows.
Mrs. Wheeler says that her husband and
Annie Prince lived together for several
months at the Columbia Hotel, Brooklyn,
Union street, Jersey City, and No. AS
Monitor street, Jersey City.
+, Besides, she charges him with improper
conduct with divers other persons, whose
names are at present unknown to this de-
PENDANT"
AS for Mr.. Wheeler, he mas skipped from
Jersey City, and is, his wife thinks, now re-
Jersey City after the trial is over he will
have to face Mr.. William VanWyck, who
threatens to prosecute him for perjury. be
cause he (Wheeler) asserts that on a certain
night in December, 1892, on going home, he
found the doors of his apartments in Presi-
dent street., brooklyn, locked. When ne
burst them open his wife and sister had
turned out the gas, but he managed to see a
man escaping, and that man he believes to
be Lawyer VanWyck.
Mrs. Wheeler says of this incident that
Mr.. VanWyck was not there, and her hus-
band came home intoxicated, and she was
obliged to call in a policeman to protect
ner.
The whiskey-befuddled brain of her hus-
band made him think that the policeman
who left the house was Mr.. VanWyck.
Those who know the latter individual dis
credit Wheeler's story.
Chancellor McGin will be asked On Mon
day next to refer the case for trial before a
yice-chancellor. ,rFs9

HOBOKEN GROCERS
Gin Mill Keepers Opposed
to Their Selling Beer
and WhiSkey.
SHOULDN'T BE GRANTED LICENSES
Will Appeal to the Common Coun-
Gil, and May Be to the
Grand Jury.

The Hoboken Liquor Dealers. Association
at the meeting yesterday afternoon took a
very emphatic stand in regard to Hoboken
grocers selling liquor. A resolution was
unanimously passed asking the Common
Council to refuse licenses hereafter to groc-
ers who make application and the Secretary
was directed to inform the council that in
the event of the latter body disregarding the
request the matter will be brought to the at
tention of the Grand Jury as a violation OF
the State law. There were thirteen mem
bers present at the meeting, Major Philibert,
the President, in the Chair, and Julius
Schlatter acting as Secretary.
HoBoKEN THE EXCEPTION.
A long discussion took place over the gro
GERS, and all the members agreed that for
those people to sell LIQUOR was a direct viola
they declared, was the. only one in which
this law is disobeyed. The members ex-
pressed freely their indignation at the coun-
Gil. Last wear the association sent the couI-
Gil the same sort of a resolution as was pre-
pared yesterday, and the council calmly sat
ON it md paid no attention whatever. Now,
the society asserts, their notification is final,
and Just as soon as the council grants a Ii
cense the Grand Jury will be told all about
it by the society. Major Philibert at the
meeting said:-
There is no use in sending all these COM
munications to the, council if we do not in
tend following them up. These grocars con-
tinue selling liquor over their counters in
big quantities, and take our profits away.
We all have to hustle enough without hay
ing unlawful competition to fight. Our Ii
censes cost enough to give us protection.
The Grand Jury must be our reliance if the
Common Council persists in breaking the
law. 1t makes no difference whether we
close our shops on Sunday or not, the groc-
ers must stop selling liquor. l move that
the Secretary be allowed to secure legal
counsel if the violation continues"
The motion was carried.
MEAN BUSINESS.
sThis is the only way we can achieve our
end" said Mr.. Schlatter. "Let them see we
are firm and mean business"
A list of grocers was read who sell liq uor
who have been granted licenses by thej coun-
Gil, as folIows:-William d. Lange, A. Pop
~penhauser, John Schroeder, John Lange,
Herman Rehm, William Decktrade, Henry
Lerothe, James Curry and John Pope.
The State Liquor Dealers League sent a
communication asking for a per capita
assessment of 25 cents for admittance to the
League. The money was voted.
