SHOULD Love THE SEA-
Naval Academy Cadets Too
Fond of Dry Land
Sports.
Sailing Vessels, Says the Superin.
tendent, Are Required 10
Train Offers.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 13.-The
Superintendent of the Naval Academy in
his annual report says:
1.-The department has been forced to re-
move the Bancroft from the Naval Acad-
emy through exigencies of service, and in
my opinion she will make a much better
cruiser for station duly than cadet prac-
tice steamer. A vessel with greater ac-
commodat;on for cadets, or about the
same tonnage, will be more efficient, es-
pecially if composite built or wooden
sheathed. The vessel should have consid-
erable sail power and with single screw.
Engineering practice can be as we'll
taught with one engine as with two. The
Bancroft could not well berth lore than
thirty cadets, whereas one cf the gunboat
class now building will accommod ate
seyenty-five to 100 cadets, in addition to
the crew."
The superintendent, Captain Cooper,
urges that shipping on sailing vessels is
preferable to that on steamers for cadets.
He declares: 1T is entirely useless to
argue that sufficiently good seamen can
be made on board steamers or auxiliary
steamers, for there is an education OF the
nerves and brain and the habit of CON-
mand which can only be incuicated in the
odiuc oSnOOl W uds lSdiSQ llc RicdlcSt
naval commanders the world has seen,
and that school has been the sailing ship.
The handling of the greatest modern
battle-snip singly or in fleets and the in
evi able return TO sail-power in cruising
vessels demand the highest order of sea
training, and it is at this school that the
foundation must be laid. Seamen are not
born such; they are made. and this is the
formative period of the lives of future
naval officers"
The superintendent strongly urges h is
recommendation that Congress be urg led
to authorize the building OF two moderate
sized composite sailing vessels, which
should be supplemented by two small
brigs for stationary work, and says every
thing within reason should be done to en-
courage love for water, whereas the dis
position has been to turn too much to the
a athletics of the field in competitor with
secular colleges. The idea of main aiming
the sports on the element for which the
young men are destined has become a
strange and repugnant thing.

Fixing of the Territorial Divis-
ional Lines to BE Left to
Friendly Powers.
AFTER YEARS OF DIPLOMACY
This Ann ounc me n Coming so Quickly
After the Venezuelan Case
Pleases Uncle Sam.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 13.-An-
other long standing American boundary
dispute is to be settled by arbitration in &C
cordance with a treaty executed several
days ago at Bogota, by which the Costa
Rica and Colombian governments have
agreed to leave their territorial divisional
line to the adjudication of the President OF
France or in the event that he cannot un-
dertake the responsibility President Dlaz
of Mexico will be asked, and as measure
of extreme precaution in case two refusais
are received the never failing last resource
of reference to the President OF Swlizer-
land is provided in the convention.
Secretary Olney has just been officially
informed OF this arrangement by SenoI
Calvo, the Costa Rican Minister, to whom
he expressed qualification in the most cor
dial terms.
The announcement coming so quickly
after the substantial settlement OF the
Guiana controversy is very pleasin~ to the
United States, as in both cases the United
States has been instrumental in securing
arbitration, our negotiation in the Costa
Rican-Co m bian question having been
confined, however, to an earnest
expression OF concern and proffer of good
offices and not to an undertaking of fore
ing one of the disputants to terms.
On Secretary Bayard's advice, the con.
troversy, which involves large and valu-
able tract of the American isthmus, was
referred to Spain for delimitation, thai
monarchy at the time being engaged in
drawing q boundary line between Vene
zuela and Colombia.
The Spanish Government, while acced.
ing to the request, deferred taking up the
Costa Rican case until it could com plete
which involved considerable work. In
the delay Costa Rlca made considerable
grants to a New Jersey company for a road
Rom Bocas del Toro to the interior with
grants OF land, besides awarding to the
Panama Canal Company over a million
acres located wholly within the limit:
strenuously claimed By the South Ameri
can republic.
In the resulting friction Colombif
claimed that the time within which Spain
should have acted on the boundary Ques
ton had expired, and in 1891 withdrew
from its treaty. Two wears ago Secretary
Gresham urged the countries to submit the
matter TO i'm partial adjudication. and from
negotiations then inaugurated the treaty
of Bogota is the outcome
Costa Rica claims on the Atlantic coas
as far south as the island of Escudo d,
Veragua and the river Chiriqui, inclusive
and on the Pacific as far as Burica Point
Colombia claims north to Cape Gracia,
Adios on the Atlantic and to the rive
Colfito, emptying into the Golfo Dulce, or
the Pacific.
The United States has large interests in
this territory, particularly at and nea
Bocas del Toro.
