For The Sink

Judge James Revell. Judge Jones con.
cGrIing) filed his opinion today in the
case OF Charles b. Henkelvs. the Mayor,
Counsellor and Aldermen of the City OF
Annapolis and others, sustaining the de-
murrer 10 the defendants answer.
This case first originated by an appli-
ition from Charles b. Henkel asking
that writ OF mandamus issue to restrain
the defendants from paying out of the
surplus for paving any streets toward the
payment of streets where The amount al.
lowed was ms, fficien,.
Alter reciting the provisions OF the Act
Of 1900, Chapter 1873, authorizing the city
to issue SI2I 900 in bonds for city paw
lag, etc. ana the various clauses of the
ordinance OF the City Council governing
the expenditure OF the same and espec
tally upon the points brought out by the
complainant that Section OF said ordi-
nance provided; that no part of any OF
the funds set apart Tor any specific i'm.
provement should be used for any other
Improvent, but any unexpended portion
thereof should be deposited to the credit
Of the sinking fund. the Court says:
at logically follows that the contract
for paving any street. &c, may be en-
tered into up TO the amount set apart tor
that purpose, but it cannot exceed it. Ii
given out tor less than the amount set
apart, what becomes of the surplus ?
Clearly the manda.e oil said section di-
rccts the surplus to be deposited in the
sinking fund for the redemption of the
bonds. For the reasons that to allow
this surplus to be applied to other than
the said sinking fund would cause hostile
criticism and be deemed an act of bad
faith by the bondholders; that the act of
Assembly and ordinance seem to have
been carefully prepared and are in har-
mony with each other, and seem to con-
tain the safeguards and precautions nee
essary, The relator's, demurrer is sustain
ed and an order passed as follows: 1T is,
therefore, ordered this 18th day OF De-

THE CADETS DEFEATED.
COLUMBIA, 6; NAVY. S.
Fumbles And A Bad Kick Prevent Tie
The Last Contest Before The
Army-Navy Game On
Franklin Field.

Army-Navy Game On
Franklin Field.
The Naval Cadets were beaten yester-
day afternoon in a football game. the
last of the season at the Naval Academy,
by the Columbia team by to s.
The Naval Cadets played fairly good
game. and succeeded in scoring one
touchdown to one scored by their oppo-
nents. Bruce kicked the goal for Colum-
bia, while FTeyer, who had the chance
to do the same for the Cadets, missed
the opportunity.
Ii ever hard luck or fate entered into
any contest. it did in this; otherwise vic
tory must have perched on the banners
Of the Navy boys. Their offensive work
was beautiful. They repeatedly made
their first down, and FIVE or six times
carried the bali to within few yards OF
Columbia S goal posts. only to lose it on
tumble or similar calastophe.
Their defensive work, which has given
the coaches so much trouble all the sea-
son. was simply great. Columbia only
touchdown being made from long runs
by Weeks and Berrien on fake plays and
double passes, which were successful
only after many attempts. One other
good run was made by Weeks, and, with
this exception, her total gains did rot
amount to twenty yards. Only one first
down was made in the first halt, and,
with the, exceptions noted, only two or
three In the second hail.
The first half of the game was distinctly
the Cadets. The poor, crippled backs OF
Columbia, Just out of the terrific battle
with Cornell, did not seem able to put
any lite into the game or to hit the line
with any steam. Morley, particularly,
took the time limit after nearly every
play until he was put back ct the line
and BerrEen substituted on the defense.
Beiknap opened the game by kicking off
Tor the Navy. Morley caught the ball
and colllded with Berrien, the blow SEEM
ing to daze him, for he fumbled and the
Navy recovered the ball on Columbia's s
4o-yard line. The Navy tore Columbia's S
line to pieces and never lost the ball until
they scored a touchdown.
Land, Nichols and Freyer did most of
the advancing and finally, after a beauti-
ful 2o-yard run, Land scored a toucu-
down, Freyer missing the goal. Column
bia stiffened somewhat after this, and
Morley punting and the fast work of
the ends getting under his kicks prevent
ed further scoring. Columbia made only
one first down during the half. Colum-
bia put up splendid defense in the sec
ond half, when her goal line was never
in danger except just before the close of
the game, when the Navy worked the
ball to her I5-yard line. but lost the ball
on downs. Berrien scored touchdown
on double pass and Bruce kicked a
goal for Columbia. Weeks was not able
to do any hurdling on account of his
lame knee. The lineup was :
