APPO|NTEES FAIL TO REPORT
WEST POINT CADET CORPS BE-
Low AUTHORIZED STRENGTH.
Recommendations Made in Repor
Of Col. Scott, Superintendent Of
Military Academy.

Col. Scott. superintendent Of the United
States Military Academy. in his annual
report 10 the War Department invites at
tention to the large and increasing
number OF principals and alternates
designated who have failed to report
for examination, and to the fact
that the corps of cadets is far
below it's authorized strength. In this
connection he invites attention to bills
pending in Congress which provide that
whenever any cadet shall have finished
three years OF his course at the Military
Academy the succeeding appointment
may be made from his congressional dis
trict or at large. in accordance with the
existing law" The superintendent rec
ommends that a provision authorizing the
appointment of cadets every three years
instead OF every four years be passed. TO
take effect as early as possible, in order
that the appointments may be made In
time to permit candidates TO prepare
themselves for the entrance examinations
and to enter the Military Academy next
year.
Record for Ten Years.
In discussing this subject the superin-
tendent calls attention to the fact that
during the ten years from 1898 10 1905
the number Of cadets that were graduated
from the Military Academy was oil less
than the number of vacancies in the army
caused by casualties, and that, conse-
ouently, without considering the increases
in the army. the cadets that were grad
uated from the Military Academy have
averaged fifty-one a year less than the
vacancies caused by casualties.
The discipline of the corps of cadets is
| faat.a III ln1
high standard with the exception of some
cases of hazing that came to the knowl-
edge OF the authorities in June. and that
resulted i'm the dismissal of one first
classman and six third classmen.
Firm Hand on Hazing.
In this connection the superintendent
of the academy says:
This evil has broken out almost year
~ since the early days OF the institu-
| ton: it is at the bottom Of most of the
serious breaches OF discipline. and must
be held down with a strong hand.
Every possible step has been taken at
the academy to eradicate II, but il ap-
pears that there are few i'm almost
every class who deliberately violate the
act of Congress forbidding 1t. and whose
ideas Of their responsibility to the gov
eminent continue to be elementary not
withstanding all the teaching and warn
ing that can be brought to bear upon
them
II is reported that the cavalry detach-
ment has continued to demonstrate the
advantages of colored over white men
for the duties required of that detach-
ment.
The superintendent reports that the
athletics engaged in during the release
from quarters. and after the recitations
of the day are over, are continuing to
show good results in counteracting the
~ nf nrh ttrAr~
healthy mind and body. and improving
the discipline and perpetuating reso-
lutte and sportsmanlike spirit in the
corps of cadets.

the less desirable districts there is little
opportunity for new corners to locate, and
in the better section none at all, despite
numerous advances in rent. The Bee has
been carrying an ad for several days IN
serted by some one who wished to rent
a large store between Dodge and Harvey
streets. He may get 1t, but 1t will be dis
possessing some one else. Conditions in
respect to store buildings at least, are all
that property owners could desire.
There will be a good deal of building
this spring, more than ever before in some
ways, and the number of men who will
build homes in the outskirts is remarkably
large"

a number of times for drunkenness and
other offenses. the court was inclined to
be lenient. Anton Chada, who has a habit

James Miller, an elderly man, received
the maximum sentence for vagracy. He
