CADETS DISMISSED
FROM WEST POINT
Hazing Causes Two First Class
Men to Lose Places at
Military Academy

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-Announce-
ment was made today by Secretary OF
War Wright that his recommendation
| for the punishment of the eight West
Point cadets suspended from the mill
| iinary academy for hazing had been
approved by President Roosevelt.
/ The order TO be issued by Secretary
Wright, based upon the presidents
approval. win dismiss from the acad-
emy the two first class men under sus-
pension, William T. Rossell Jr.. son
of Colonel W. T. Rossell of the en-
gineer corps of the army, and Harry
G. Weaver of Illinois; and the suspen-
sion without pay and allowances for
one year OF the members of the third
class, George Washington Chase OF
New York. James A. Gillespie OF Penn
sylvania, Byron Quimby Jones of New
York, William Nalle of Virginia, Will
| liam Wellington Brude of Alabama and
Issac Spalding of oklahoma
Las Wednesday evening, after Sec
retary Wright had had a long confer
ence with Colonel Scott, superintendent
of the military academy. the sechetary
sent to President Roosevelt his report
for the disposition of the West Point
cadet case. The presidents approval OF
the recommendation was received by
Secretary Wright today.
In the conference held at Sycamore
Hill, participated in by the president,
Secretary Wright and Colonel Scott.
1t was suggested that all of the eight
cadets be suspe nded from the academy
| fer one year without pay or allow
ances. That was regarded as adequate
puniskme mt for the effenses against the
law and regulations committed by the
cadets.
Superintendent Scott, however, insist
ed that the maintenance of discipline
at the academy required even more
drastic punishment than would be
contained in an order of suspension
He pointed out that the two first class
men were confessedIy the ringleaders
in the hazing, and that, being older
than the other men and in a sense re-
sponsible for the practices which had
grown UP at the academy they ought
to be dealt with more severely than
the others. He felt, in fact that il
drastic action were not taken by the
authorities in this case. his influence as
Superintendent of the academy would
be weakened materially. with this
view the president and Secretary
Wright finally agreed.
An interesting fact was developed by
the inquiry into the case. That was
that Colonel Scott was suspended from
was found guilty by a board of hazing
and was set back one year without
pay or allowances
The suspended cadets, in the year OF
their absence frcm the academy, will
be in a measure under the authority
of the army officials. although they
viii be permitted TO do whatever they
choose. Unless they should resign
meantime they will be required to re-
port TO the academy on June Is next
| to take their places in the class be-
low that of which they now are mem
| bers.
