Annapolis, Md, Jan. ID. Secretary
Of the Navy William II. Moody was
severely injured in the naval academy
grounds yesterday by runaway acct
dent. Accompanied by Senator Hale
chairman Of the. senate naval affairs
committee, the secretary arrived here
at 2 o'clock to inspect the new build
ings being erected in the naval acad.
envy grounds, being driven from the
railroad station in Supt. Brownsonss
private carriage. 5.< ... u
The battalion Of cadets were drawn
up in line of salute just inside the
academy grounds, and as the carriage
bearing the secretary, Senator Hale
and their escort, Lieut.. POyer, pass ed
in review, a salute of seventeen guns
belched forth from the guns on tne
Santee wharf The FESTIVE horses at.
tached to the carriage swerved sud
denly and got beyond control Of tic
driver. They dashed down Upshu1
Row, past the line Of cadets, the driver
meantime making every effort to quiet
them. The breaking of the pole of the
carriage as the spirited animals
dashed down the roadway served to
render them more excited. AS the M
Maddened Animals Dashed
down the hill toward College creek.
the driver, seeking to stop them, sud:
denly turned their heads into a vacant
lot between two houses. Secretary
Moody, who had opened the door OF
the carriage as the horses dashed over
the frozen ground, suddenly leaped to
the pavement as the carriage made
the turn into the Enclosure. He landed
on his face on the pavement and was
rendered unconscious by the shock.
q The battalion of midshipmen had
broken ranks without orders as the
carriage dashed by, and very soon the
secretary was lifted by tender hands
and carried to the nearby residence Of
Supt. Brownson, where he shortly re-
gained consciousness. Slight cuts and
bruises on his forehead, nose and face
are thought to be the extent Of the sec.
retary's injuries. Neither Senator
Hale nor Lieut.. Poyer were injured, as
the horses we're brought up against q
wall soon after making the. turn into
the open lot.
& Secretary Moody and Senator Hale
spent the night here as the guests Of
Supt. Brownson.

Using Law Books to Advantage.

Vic SuppOSeS CudC IL is the duty OF
naval officers to fight, not negotiate.
Nevertheless, all officers of modern
navies have more to do with inter-
national law than with ball and can.
non. Prof. Moore Of Columbia was.
lecturing few summers ago at the
Newport Naval College, and inter
national law was one Of the most i'm
portant studies. The professor was
setting forth all imaginable situations
and allowing the studell.s to suggest
the best way out of them. One Of the,
men could not appreciate the value
Of law in a sea fight. What he was
yearning for was powder and shot.
Asked by the professor as to what
argument for nternatioIa law he
would use to convince the enemy Of
their error, he said contemptuously::
Il would let them nave all the VOL
umes Of international law in wad
form, and add the supplement by way

of irrigating water from bitches at

aiding of municipal water works in the

proper at this time to say that this
account is more than eight years Old,
and that with the ever-shifting incum-
bents in office and the continual intro

The state land board is preparing to
dispose of the North and Middle parks
grazing problem, which has been
avoided by successive land boards for
several years. The state owns i'm
mense tracts of land in both parks
which are valuable for grazing pur-
poses. Before the state acquired the
tracts. certain small areas were taken
up by settlers, and these holdings are
entirely surrounded, in half a dozen
instances, by the state lands. The
state has had propositions from large
cattle interests to lease these tracts
at rates which would return consider
able sums of money, but no leases
have ever been given, because it was
feared that the settlers would be en-
tirely cut off from range privileges II

ago Register Joyce, of the land office.
appointed Mrs. Lucille Jermy plat
clerk. She took the confused records
of the board, and marked down. town
ship by township, in regular plats, all
land owned by the state. From these
plat books Mrs. Jenny has been able
to make a map of North and Middle
parks, showing all the land in Ques-
ton. Another plat will be made show
ing all the sections upon which two or
more applications TO lease have been
filed. With these maps before it. the
board can go ahead and grant leases
to the settlers of the sections which
will give them outlets to the open
range. and then the remaining lands
may be leased to the larger companies
to be fenced and held as private range.
An eight-hour day has been put into
force in the land Office, which is the
only Office in the state house on this
basis. The step was made necessary
by the large amount of work on hand
in the office. and is one of the reforms
inausurated by the present state ad-
ministration, on the principle that the
people of the state are entitled to the
same service from employees that
would be required from the employees
