OSCAR L. BCOZ DEAD.
Young Man Who Is Alleged to Have
Been HnxeG at West Point.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. Oscar l..
Booze, a former cadet at West Point Mill
tary Academy, who has been lying at the
point of death at Bristol, Pa, suffering
from injuries which his parents claim were
the result of a hazing at the academy over
two years ago, died to-day in great agony.
The cause Of death was throat consump-
ton. 1t is alleged by the young mans
father that Tobasco sauce was poured
down his sons throat while the cadets were
hazing him. The father also claims that
red pepper was thrown In his eyes, hot
grease was poured on his bare feet. a tooth
knocked out and that other fiendish meth
DDS were INDUCED In. Shortly after this.
the father says, Oscar, because of his ply
steal condition, was compelled TO resign his
cadetship. The young man grew steadily
worse, but never would divulge the names
of the cadets who ill-treated him. His
parents told him IL was his duty to tell, but
his only answer was, II went there ex-
pecting to take whatever medicine should
be given, and it would not be right to
complain against the other boys"

WEST POINT, N. Y, Dec. 3.-Before the
death of young Booz, at Bristol, was an
nounced to-day, Col. Mills. superintendent
of the Militarq Academy made the follow
ing statement: The many statements
made in the press of the country alleging
that Oscar l.. Booz was atrociously hazed
while he was a cadet at the Military
academy to such an extent that he is now
dying from it's effects are untrue and ridicu-
Military Academy, June 20, 1895, and re-
signed Oct. 81, 1898. HI was on sick report
but once, on July 80, when he was excused
from the drills for that day on account of
diarrhoae. He had been brutality beaten in
a fight with another cadet or had his throat
been injured in the manner claimed il
would have been impossible for him to have
avoided the sick report The reason given
for his resignation was weak eyes. His
record shows he was in the last section in
mathematics. The marks he received to
the date of his resignation were deficient.
1 believe there lies the real cause of his
resignation, and L think 1t most probable
that stories of his alleged i'll treatment
arise from statements he has made in en-
deavoring to explain to his friends why he
left the academy. He made no complaint
of ill-treatment at the hands OF other
cadets. He was under orders to do so If
such was accorded him. From inquiries
made L am convinced that this particular
ex-cadet was very little interfered with or
molested by other cadets during his entire
stay at the Military Academy"
Those who were class mates of Cadet
BooZ concur in the statement of Colonel
Mills. Among his classmates, who are still
cadets, Booz was not a favorite. He was
molested but little by other cadets who did
not like him.

Jim CROW" LAW UPHELD.
Separate Railway Cars for Negroes
May He Used in Kentucky.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-The Kentucky
State law requiring railroad companies to
provide separate coaches for colored pas
sengers was made the subject of an opin-
ion in the United States Supreme Court
to-day, the case being that of the Chesa-
peake * Ohio Railroad Company versus
the State of Kentucky. 1t came to this
court from the Kentucky Court of Appeals.
The opinion was handed down by Justice
Brown, and the Kentucky courts judg-
ment in favor OF the State was affirmed
Justice Brown stated that in this case the
railroad company had attacked the statute
or the ground that it was unconstitutional
al and that II was an Interference with
Interstate commerce. Without replying
specifically to this objection, the justice
said there is a sufficient compliance with
the law if n separate coach for local col
ored passengers is attached TO a train
while passing through the State. The
Court of Appeals of Kentucky had itself,
he said. relieved this court of the neces-
sity of passing upon the question as to
whether the law required a separate coach
tor interstate passengers OF color. James
c. Harlan dissented. stating his opinion
that the law is an Interference with inter-
state commerce and also taking the po-
sition that the Kentucky Legislature has
nc right 10 classify citizens by color in
railway coaches.
