MORE HAZlNG AT ANNAPOLIS
Mild Case Is Unearthed at the Naval
Academy.

Annapolis, Nd, Oct. 15.-Notwith.
standing the severe lessons taught the
midshipmen by the courts-martial and
dismissals of last spring, hazing has
again appeared at the naval acadmey.
So far the recurrence Of the practice
seems to be an isolated case. Third
Classman r. p. Cutler, Jr., whose
home is in Calais, o., has been called
upon by Superintendent Sands to an.
swer the charge of assuming unwar'
ranted and unauthorized authority
over a lower classman in such a way
as to humiliate and embarrass" Fourth
Classman Godfrey Chevalier of Med
ford, Mass.
The hazing of Midshipman Chevaliei
Is said to have been a mild case.
Cutler, it Is understood, went to
Chevalier's room and asked the fourth
classman his name. Upon being told
he intimated that 1t vas too big a
mouthful, and said: Hereafter you
will be known as -,' giving
the fourth classman a silly nickname.
Admiral Sands seemed to think the
case an isolated one, as the board OF
investigation, in its examinations OF
fourth classmen, has found but one
other fact in any way relating to haz'
ing. This was the case of a youth,
who has resigned and whose hazins
occurred Immediately after his resig'
nation had been accepted and taken
effect, but before he had dotted his
uniform.

MACON IN CONTROL,
HIS FIRST DAY AS GOVERNOR OF
CUBA Is QUIET BUT A BUSY ONE.

Announces His Decision to Postpone
Appointment Of Cabinet officers
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. to Pay Cost Of
Intervention.
Havana, Oct. ~15.-Charles K. Ma
goon's first day as governor OF Cuba
passed busily, but quietly. The palace
was singularly still compared with the
eventful days of the past regime.
Governor Magoon said TO the Asso.
ciated Press that he was looking for.
ward with confidence to a peaceful
administration. He expressed the
warmest appreciation Of the work &C.
complished by Messrs. Taft and Bacon,
both In the pacification OF the island
and laying the foundation for a smooth
and successful system o. provisional
government. The governor sees no
reason to anticipate further sudden
changes In the situation, or any eS.
pecially sensational incident. He Is
rather of tho opinion that now govern.
mental matters will be of the common.
place order compared to the exciting
and rapid succession OF developments
of the past two months. Governor
Magoon has announced his decision to
postpone the appointment of cabinet
officers Indefinitely. His intention Is
to consider thoroughly the conditions
and needs of each department and
this can be better accomplished at the
outset by having the subordinate
heads report directly to himself. BY
this method the governor believes he
will be better enabled to select the
ministers best fitted for the respective
posts. There will be kept a strict &C
counting OF the expenses incurred by
the American army of occupation as
are chargeable TO Cuba. These will
include only such expenses as would
not have been incurred but for the
coming Of the troops to the island.
The last demonstration of welcome
to returning eX-rebels took place here
upon the arrival of General Betan.
court, who was formerly Guerra's
chief of staff. Betancourt has been
detained in Pinar del Rio collecting
luSuTBcnJ dTIuS anu oSttIlu6 othSi
matters. He is popular in the cap
ital. A crowd Of 1000 persons met
him at the station and greeted him
with roars of delight. Padre Miret, o
revolutionary priest. who accompanied
the general, was enthusiastically vel
coined. The crowd was composed al
most entirely Of negroes. With three
bands Of music, they paraded through
several squares, and finally left Betan
court at his home.
The City of Washington, with the
headquarters and First battalion OF
the Eleventh infantry on board, and
the Admiral Schley, with company ]
of the signal corps and the Seven
teenth and Eighteenth batteries OF
mountain artillery. have arrived here
General j. Franklin Bell intends tc
distribute a battalion Of engineers
throughout the island for the purpose
Of verifying, correcting and complet
ing the large army map of Cuba begun
during the former intervention, but
not completed, except for the prov
inces of Havana and Matanzas.
The twenty-five marines ordered &c
the Isle of Pines by Secretary OF War
Taft proceeded thither from Batabanc
on board a coasting vessel.
