seems to have begun. A circular was sent
to the higher cadet officers for sigma
ture. asking them to abstain from inter-
ferng with the "plebes" and to give hearty
support to the system OF soldierly training
laid down in the regulations and orders. The
refusal OF those cadets to sign this round robin
resulted In their being placed in arrest and re-
duced to the ranks. For their frank acknowl-
edgment Of the grave military offence they
had committed and their regret therefor.
they have now been restored to duty.

nols were quietly pacing up and down their
