but as the government in submitting such
documents to the academy does not desig-
nate the color Of applicants the authorities
ut the latter place have no means OF
knowing whether or not Jackson is a
negro.
II is certain that Wheeler is colored
boy and that he was to come TO nnapoiis
for the examinations. He was expected
by DIR. William Bishop, culored, OF AL
napolis, who was mate OF an uncle of
the boy at Howard University, in this city.
Naval circles here have been considerably
sgiiated about the matter.
