HAS AN EYE ON ANNAPOLIS
Congress viii Investigate Con-
ditiOnS at Naval Academy
Officers and Cadets.

Washington, Jan. 30.-Resolutions for
a full investigation by congress of af-
fairs at Annapolis were discussed by
the house committee on naval affairs
today, but many members feel that it
should not act until the present court
martial trials are concluded, and at the
suggestion of Chairman Foss action
was postponed.
The members Of the committee are
almost unanimous in their belief that
a full investigation must be conducted
before it can be determined whether the
officers of the academy, the midship-
men or the law are responsible for haz-
ing at Annapolis. 1t is the opinion of
several members that officers have not
done their full duty at the academy,
and it seems likely that midshipmen
and officers will be investigated with
equal vigor by the committee.
The senate committee on naval af-
fairs also discussed q, programme for
investigation. but took no action.

Denver, Jan. 30.-A special from Las

Sheriff Romero has returned from

young school teacher, We're criminalIy

burned TO conceal the crimes Two
men who were rOoming at the house
were drunk during the afternoon. The
big adobe house was on fire for more

children slept, fell. The charred re-
mains of the women were found in the
ruins still lying on the bed and strong
evidences of the crime were still appar-

distance from the house. They admit

fed that he has enough evidence to
convict the man, and a determined eff
