investigation this morning on the
complaint of Alexander. and the
members OF the class declare they
have solved the mystery, with the ex-
ception OF the identity of the hazers
and one of the young lady specta-
tors.
Alexander, It is stated. had been
the successful rival OF an upper
classman since before either of them
entered the Academy Seeking to be-
little the plebe in the eyes OF the
young woman, the upper classman'
knowing he would be recognized ny
the plebe If he undertook the hazins
himself, induced one OF his friends
TO do It for him.
TN SUNDAY, alteF chapel, me uP-
per classinan met the young lady In
the case in the company of girl
friend and induced them to go to
Bancroft Hall. There they were met
by the confederate and the four en-
tered. They walked down an upper
corridor, and as they passed the
plebes' room the confederate opened
the door and entered. Alexander and
his room mate saluted and turned
their faces away from the door, as
is the custom, and the hazing be-
gan.
After the plebes had done "exer-
ciss 10" and other stunts and had
dropped to the floor exhausted. the
Young woman and the instigator or
tho plot fed from the building.
Several midshipmen are under sus-
picion and will DO compelled to ap-
pear before the commission.
The Young lady with whom the
pIebe and midshipman are smitten
denied tonight that she witnessed
the hazing. but declared she was IN
bancroft Hall when It took place. and
knows the names of every one con-
nected with It. The second girl is
