WEST POINT MILITARY SCHOOL.
Annual Report Submitted by the
Board of Visitors.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-The an
nual report of the Board of Visitors to
the West Point Military Academy rec
ommends raising the requirements for
admission so as to provide that appli-
cants shall be examined in such sub
jects as may be prescribed from time 20
time by the Secretary of War before
they shall be admitted to the academy.
AS the barracks of the academy
building were found to be ample for
the accommodation of at least eighty
eight more cadets, or two at large for
each State in the Union, or one for each
Senator, and the additional cost would
be but slight, the board recommends
that an Act of Congress should be
passed authorizing the nomination of
one cadet by each Senator in addi-
ton to the one nominated by each Rep
resentative.
The board also recommends a num-
Der of improvements and extensions to
the academy which they think Will
make it the most complete school of the
kind in the world.

FOUR ATROCIOUS MURDERS.
COMMITTED BY PEON LABOR
ERS IN MEXICO.
All the Victims rlemberS of an Amer.
ican Colony Residing in the
State of Pueblo.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25.-Private
advices from the American colony a.
Metaltovnca, State of Pueblo, Mexico,
received in this city to-day, tell OF
four atrocious murders by poems, the
victims in each case being a member
OF the colony. The colony was formed
four years ago and comprises 200 peo-
pie, most of them having formerly been
prosperous farmers in the United
States. A tract of 100000 acres of
land was secured from the Mexican
Government and a number of poems
have been employed as laborers
Early in the present year series of
robberies took place, but all efforts to
capture the robbers were unavailing.
Then on August 18th Tomas Gomez,
while seated on the veranda of his
home, was shot and instantly killed by
one of number of poems, who rode up
to the house and fired upon Gomez
without warning. The assassin was
captured, but has not been punished
yet.
The second victim was New Yorker
named Denny. n years old. He with
friend named Gelser were riding to-
ward the village when they were fired
upon by three poems. Denny was shot
in the shoulder. and fell from his horse.
Gelser being unarmed, was forced to
fly and the poems hacked Denny to
pieces with machetes. The murderers
have not been captured.
Charles Pilsea was seated in his
bamboo hut November Sth reading,
when a rifle was thrust through IA
crevice and bullet crashed through
his head. A posse started in pursuit
of the assassins, and that night, while
in camp, were attacked by poems armed
with machetes and Pancho Soris was SO
seriously wounded that he soon died.
The Mexican Government has ordered
a troop of cavalry to the colony, and is
endeavoring to capture the assassins,
but is suppressing the facts for fear it
will reflect on the officials.

keys not rarely attain the weight Of

SUGAR TRUST.
Unexpected Obstacle to Its Control
of Baltimore COMPANY.

BALTIMORE. Nov 25.-The sugar
trust has encountered an unexpected
obstacle to its control of the Baltimore
Sugar Refining Company. Lawyers
who have been studying the situation
claim that the recent election of direct
ors, which resulted in the defeat of the
old board, composed of Baltimoreans
and the substitution of a board in SYM
pathy with the trust, was illegal
The old management was unanimous
in favor of starting a plant at Curtis
Bay as soon as possible. and had made
arrangements TO begin the manufacture
Of sugar by the middle of December
providing work for 600 men, The
sugar trust wanted the plant TO remain
idle, and at the annual meeting about
two weeks ago showed that it owned q
majority of the stock of the Baltimore
company, and therefore elected success
sors to the Baltimore directors. c.
Moreton Stewart was the only resident
OF Maryland elected a director, and as
the laws of Maryland require that a
majority of the directors be residents Of
this State, it Is the opinion of several
lawyers who have examined the situa-
tion that the election is void.
The sugar trust is now considering
this phase of the situation, and ii is re-
ported that il will call the stockholders
together again for the purpose OF in
creasing the Maryland representation
OF the beard and avoiding legal COM
plications which would almost certain
ly ensue The minority stockholders
have not abandoned the movement to
have the works opened, and If the sugar
trust does not issue orders that will
start the plant up and enable ii to earn
returns on the quarter of a million dol
lars or more of stock held in this city
within reasonable length of time legal
steps will be taken to enforce the rights
of the local interests.

RAILWAY PASSES.
New Agreement Regulating Their
Issuance,

CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-The new agree
ment regulating the issue of passes dur
ing 1897, which was adopted by the
Western Passenger Association at it's
recent meeting in st. Louis, makes a
more radical change in the present
agreement than was believed at the
time of the meeting. The details were
made in a circular. The General Man
ager and General superintendent of
road will have power to obtain passes
for employees or alleged employees from
other roads. This curtailment of Off
cials from whom requests for passes
will be honored is expected to have
very beneficial effect. 1t is not believed
that traffic managers will confess to
:heir superiors to secure passes for the
prominent shippers on their lines.
