A Silver Peak Rumor.

During the past week considerable
talk has been heard concerning a
lively revival at Silver Peak, the said
revival OF the old camp being due,
according to persistent rumor, to-
the alleged fact that the Tonopah
had bought, or was about
to buy, the original Silver Peak
mine.
In response to an inquiring Bo
MANIA representative Manager
Keith Of the Tonopah company stated
that so far as be knew there was
nothing in the story. He had heard
nothing of the matter and did not
think it likely that any move Of the
kind was III contemplation, much less
nearing consummation,
The Silver Peak mine is the prop
erty Of the Blair estate, and while 1t
is mine of known productiveness, 1t
has lain idle for great many years
because its owners do not care to
work it themselves and will not sell
excepting at very high figure, and
since this is demanded IN cash, the
many examinations of the property
made from time to time by the rep
resentatiges Of various companies,
have come to naught.

But Some Difficulty Will Be Expe

The code of honor which is emnlov-

ly the same as that at West Point.
The death of Midshipman Branch was
clearly the res1lt Of this code.
The code, in some cases conflicts
with the regulations of the Academy.
but the officers OF the institution pass
it by, and wherever there is fight on
between two of the midCies il is sci.
dom seen by any of the authorities
The code of honor may receive its
death blow as a result of the sad
death of Midshipman Branch.
Fighting has been tolerated at the
Naval Academy ever since the insti-
tuition was established, and is regard
ed by naval officers as the only way
TO settle differences between young Off
GERS who are being trained at the
Academy. These claShes are common
occurrences and the participants are
not often punished. The fight between
Branch and Meriwether differed in no
way from scores of similar fights which
preceded it, except that the result was
most unfortunate.
Officers of the navy everywhere de-
plore the lamentablo outcome, but
they hold that il was so clearly acci.
dental that the authorities can mete
out no punishment on grounds more
serious than that the regulations were
broken. Half a dozen diSmissals might
follow the investigation of the present
case if the court of inquiry sees fit to
| invoke the greatest possible sentence
and if Secretary Bonaparte concurs.
Traditions of the Navy or the many
| old established ustoms are not likely
to stand in Secretary Eonaparte's way

Meriwether should be punished only
by being set back in gra de and rank

wether thought he was being unfairly
treated by Branch, his superior officer

posely insulted Branch, which is the
| correct thing TO do, according to the
| code, and Branch challenged.
The challenge went before the third
class, of which Meriwether was a
prominent member, and he was direct
ed to accept and fight The time wa.

were allowed to steal away from sup

tom. There are many rules governing
the conduct of the midshipmen of the
various classes and all Of them are re.
spected. Certain rights are accorded
the first class men and certain restrio,
tions placed upon the members of the
fourth class. Naval officers feel that
it will be difficult to completely stamT
out the code of honor even if an ener.
getic attempt is made. Fighting may
be stopped for time, but within Q
few months ii will probably begin

What Others Think.

The following are some of the ex.
pressions of the press on the Naval
Academy fight, which resulted in the
death of Mi ishipman Branch. The
Baltimore American says:
Prize fights, condemned by public
sentiment everywhere. and by law in
many planes, ought TO be impossible
at the national Naval Academy, where
young men are supposed to be trained
as off GERS and gentlemen, not as pugu-
lists, for the service of their country.
The investigation impending ought to
take in the discipline under which
such regular ring battles are possible. !"
The American also says:
1.-THE tragic ending of the scrap be-
tween the two midshipmen at the Ma
val Academy revives the wonder awak-
ened by the numerous hazing coi@ei
dents of this season whether many of
the so-called young gentlemen who
