DEFY REGULATIONS
Naval Cadets at Annapolis Ruled
BY Secret code of
Honor"
BROUGHT OUT AT THE TRIAL
Oefease of Midshipman Meriweather
Aimed to Show Authorities Wink
ed at Practices.

Annapolis. Md. Nov. 23.-The fact
that the midshipmen of the United
States naval academy are governed by
code" of laws in fragrant violation
of the regulations of the academy was
court martial of Midshipman Minor
Meriweather.
Ii was the violation of this illegal
code" which led TO the quarrel be
tween Meriweather and Midshipman
James r. Branch, Jr The quarrel was
followed by a fist fight in which
Branch received injuries which. it is
charged, caused his death.
Under the code" every detail of
these fights is fixed, the midshipmen
on duty abstaining from reporting
them, and excusing from formation
those connected with them
Fighting the Academy Rule.
Midshipman A w. Fitch who refer
eed the fight which was followed by
Branch's death, stated he had officiated
in 10 such contests and Midshipman
McKittrick testified that he had taken
part in nine Detailed accounts were
given of the arrangements by which
midshipmen on duty acquiesced in alb
sences without leave and other dere-
lictions in order that the fights might
go on, and the testimony also showed
that although frequently severe inju-
ries resulted from these fights and the
recipients often had TO be taken to the
hospital nothing further was ever
heard of them.
This the defense brought out on cross
examination, it being evidently intend
ed TO show that the naval academy au
thorities also winked at the code and
the prearranged fights under it.
