MOST SERIOUS REBELLION IN WEST POINTS HISTORY CON-
 FRONTS OFFICERS.
WON'T EXPLAIN SILENCE"
Affront to Captain Longan Yelled in lmpenetrabe Mystery-Board of Inquiry Baffled Unless Some
 Man Weakens.

West Point, N. Y, Sept. 2S.-A state States military academy, the home of discipline
 It is admitted the authorities in charge are facing the most serious situation ever encountered at West Point, for the cadet corps is unit in it's stand No one man seems more guilty than another, and to eXpel one for insubordination means that all must go.
 The delicacy of the situation is such that Maj. Gen Thomas Barry, super intendent of the academy, returned from Washington to take personal charge.
 The silent" affront given Capt Rufus E. Longan, tactical instructor in the mess hall Saturday and Sun day, is as nothing compared with the silence given the military board of inquiry by the cadet corps, and un- less some weak kueed cadet agrees to tell the board what caused the insult to Capt. Longan, the academy author ities are face to face with the neces- sity of court marualing the entire corps for insubordination, the most serious breach of military discipline
 Board in Continuous Session.
 The board of inquiry, appointed by Lieut. Col Fred NJ Sibley command ant of cadets. and in charge of the academy during the absence of Maj Gen. Barry has been ill almost contin- uous session since the silence was given Captain Longan, and has al ready examined two of the first class men.
 As unit these men have given the silence to the court We have formed a dislike to this officer they have said. and no amount of persua- sion or threats can compel them to go further. They have simply folded their arms and declined to answer questions.
 Lieut. Col Sibley minated the entire cadet corps of 450 members will be called, one by one before the board, and that this will occupy two or three weeks.
 Corps Under Arrest.
 Knowing ones assert the students will be guided by the action of the first-class men If these men main tain their refusal to talk, every under olassman may be expected to do the same.
 In the past, when a cadet refused to testify before q military board of inquiry or a court martial, the officer in charge simply commanded the un- willing witness to testify. In the event of further refusal the cadet was immediately courtmartialed and dis missed for insubordination,
 In the meantime, the corps is still under arrest. The cadets cannot be seen by reporters who have been clamoring for their side of their story It is understood the antagonism to- ward Captain Longan followed several actions of that officer which the cadets regarded as petty"

Little Cleaning Talks.

Fine lace curtains that you do
not like to have Numbered on
account of the wear and tear may
be dry-cleaned in the following
manner: Take down the curtains
and shake them free from dust.
Spread sheet on the floor and lay
a curtain smoothly on it. Cover
with corn-meai. Lay on another
curtain and cover with meal.
Continue this process until YOU
have about four curtains down.
Then, beginning at one end, roll
them tightly in the sheet and let
lie for a few days. Unroll and
hang on the line in the wind and
sun for one day. When hung the
curtains will look like new. Cur
tains that hayenever been Numbered
are most satisfactorily cleaned by
this method.

Did you know that a white net

Well, it can, and very successfully,
too. Spread the waist out flat and
rub well ali parts with the borax.
Roll it up, put in a basin,
sprinkle some borax on top and
leave for a few days. Then shake
out the borax thoroughly and press
the waist. This method does away
with the yellowness due to wash
ing, and cleans beautifully.
Don't despair if your polished
table or side-board seems almost
ruined with the marks caused by
hot dishes. You can make it look
just like new with little trouble.
Saturate cloth with camphor and
rub the place until the stain dis

SCORES FOR ASSEMBLY SEAT
Buckeye State Committees Urge Big
Fields in Order to Get All
Voters Out.

Columbus, o. - Fragmentary re-
ports to state headquarters Of both
parties show that the list Of candi-
dates for nomination to the general
assembly will be unusually large.
The time for filing petitions in the
88 counties of the state expired to-
night. The state committees Of both
parties for days have been endeavor-
ing to see that there were no vacan-
cies on the legislative primary ticket
in any of the counties. Because of
this activity, Democratic candidates
have entered in counties overwhelm-
ingly Republican and vice versa. The
theory of the state committees is that
a complete local ticket in every county
will help in getting out the largest pos
sible vote for the state ticket.
A general interest in the legislative
situation is more noticeable than
usual because the next assembly will
elect United States senator and, in
all probability, do some congressional
redistricting. In many counties there
is talk that the senatorial question
will come up in the primary cam
paign. Candidates for the nomination
for the assembly will be asked to ex-

SHOW CONTEMPT OF LAW
Fourteen Railroads Control ohio's
Coal Traffic, Says Attorney Gen.
eral Denman.

Columbus, O.-For a period Of
eight years at least, competition in
the transportation of coal from the
Ohio coal fields has been totally sup
pressed by an illegal combination of
the railroads which tap those coal
fields, according to report made to
the legislature by Attorney General
Denman.
He states in strong language the
injustice and wrong done to the
people of Ohio, says that the rail-
roads have shown contempt of the
law, and submits a draft of bill
for the Strengthening of the Valen-
tine antitrust law and the better pro-
lection Of the people.
The report has a political interest,
though the attorney general has
carefully avoided accenting it, be-
cause the c., H. G d., of which Gov
ernor Harmon was receiver, is one of
the roads included in the arraign.
ment.
The combination, the report says,
consists of the B. G O., the Cleve-
land, Lorain &c Wheeling, the c., H.
& D., the D., T. & l., the Hooking
Valley, the X. G NJ, Lake Erie, AL
lance & Wheeling, the Marietta, Co
Iumbus & Cleveland, the T. & o. c.,
the Toledo, Walhonding Valley &
Ohio, the w. C L. E., the Wabash
and the GAINESVILLE & Western.
Governor Harmon gave out a state
ment denying any knowledge of the
c., H. & d. railroad being in coal
carrying combination while he was
it's receiver.
The lengthy report further goes on
and says: These records (of the Ohio
Coal Traffic association) show that
there has been 20 real competition
between those roads for the transpor
tation Of coal from the fields named
but on the contrary the competition
which would otherwise necessarily
prevail to the benefit of the public
was completely and entirely sup
pressed"

under which the marriage took place.
Browne had rs cents in cash at the
time. The brides wedding dress was
given her by newspaper man and

Peculiar Position for Rest.

Edwin Hawley, who has bought
more railroads than has any one else
since the panic, and is sometimes
talked of as the new Hartman, has a
curious habit of repose in his office
when the days work is done. The
few people who see him then see him
sitting on tie floor like a Turk or
tailor fashion with legs crossed, back
against the wall and arms around
both legs below the knees. Often he
rests in this way for an hour or more
chatting with friends, business asso
ciates and subordinates and denying
himself to all callers.--New York Sun
