JUDGE BRASHEARS SUMMONED
Circuit Court Judge Was Member Of
Legislature When Warren Deal
Fell ThrOugh-0thers Sub
pOenaed.

As a member of the Senate of Mary.
land at the session when the famous
Warren deal fell through, Judge James
r. Brashears, of the Circuit Court
for Anne Arundel is among those
whose names have been handed to the
Sheriff of Baltimore to be summoned
to appear in the Circuit Court of that
city on Wednesday to testify.
About one hundred supboenas were
issued for former members of the
Legislature and among these. were
also Judges Jones. of Worcester and
Sanford. of Somerset counties.
As there are only about seven mem
bers of the House of Delegates who
served in 1910 and six who are serv-
ing as Senators, their absence will
not interfere materially with the pro-
eeedings of the Legislature. 1t is I'M
derstood that the lawmakers will be
asked to testify as to the proceedings
in the Legislature when the deal fell
through.
The coming hearing will go direct
ly to the merits of the alleged con.
tract made by the city in the soriginal
Warren deal about which there has
already been so much litigation and
Legislative action.

Midshipmen fencers at the Naval
Academy engaged in series of bouts
Saturday afternoon at the Naval
Academy armory with the experts CT
the New York Turn Verefn, the wea-
pons used being the foil, Sabre and
canes.
No decisions were rendered. but
from the artistic and technique stand
point the contest was the best seen
here this season, and altogether the
mddies derived much better practice
than they get from the series of pre-
iiminary engagements with teams of
the Intercollegiate Association.
The New York representatives were
Attire, Reimherr. Glaesser and Starr.
while the middies were podd, Broad
bent, Hans, Hibbs and Osgood. In
the foil engagements Midsbipmen
Dodd and Broadbent each had a bout
with Allaire, Reimherr and Glaesser.
Interesting sabre bouts took place
between the same three New Workers.
and Midshipmen Hibbs and Hans.
while the engagement with canes.
which afforded the usual amusement
from the spectacular standpoint was
between Midshipmen Osgood and
Starr, of New York.
Following the exhibitions with the
mlddles, series of exhibition bouts
between the Turn Verein fencers and
the midshipmen and their instructors
took place.

GAVE II MEN WORK.
Capt. Cole Of Naval Academy Aids
c. E. Friemel to Open Oyster
Traffic.

Through the kindness of Commander
Cole, U. S. N, in charge of buildings
and grounds at the Naval Academy.
Mr.. Charles E. Friemel, who ow ms
water front property at Eastport, on
the Severn river side, has been en-
abled to put eleven men to work this
morning on the oyster bars he owns.
Commander Cole, upon the request
of Mr.. Friemel, permitted the tug
"Y'' to go from the Naval Academy
to Eastport to break the ice so that
the oyster boats could go out. The
tug Y" also broke the ice around
the city dock and opened traffic
around the oyster bars at FriemePs
place, so that the oystermen were able
to go out today.
1t is expected to give more men
work this afternoon and tomorrow.
This is the first time the oystermen
have been out for several weeks, and
their inability to work has caused so
much suffering at Eastport and with
the oystermen in Annapolis during
the prolonged freeze.

EXAM. STANDARD LOWERED.
Semi-Annual Tests Made Easier at The
Naval Academy for the Midship-
mea-NOw % Instead Of rs

Practically the examination stand
ard at the semi-annuais at the Naval
Academy has been put into effect.
An order lowering the standard OF
requirements in the semi-annuai eX-
aminations was recently put into
effect at the Naval Academy, and as a
result il is understood that number
of midshipmen were enabled to quail
ify in the tests, thus saving them from
being dropped back into the next
lower class, or forced to resign on ac-
count of deficiency.
The standard was not reduced in all
subjects, but only in those that have
proved the most difficult to the stu
dents. These includes navigation and
mathematics. In several instances the
passing mark has been lowered TO %
and 2.S.
Just what moved the academic board
to this action is not known. For many
years the passing mark in all subjects
has been a 25, while the highest per-
feet mark is a 4. The administration
in this years semi-annual tests re-
Gently completed departed from the
custom that had been in vogue for a
number of years BY compelling all
midshipmen to take the examinations.
Formerly any midshipman who had
attained an average mark of in one
or more branches was not required to
take the mid-year tests in those sub
jects.
While the report of the academic
board on the recent examination has
been in the hands of the Navy Depart
ment for about two weeks, no formal
| announcement of the complete result
has been given out. 1t is understood,
however, that there was a large mum
Der of failures. All that has been
made public are the names of fifteer
middies who were so far behind in
their work that they were compelled
to quit.
Their designations have been accept
ed. All but one of these were mem
bers of the fourth class. 1t is saiC
that a number of second and thirC
classmen, not so badly deficient. were
| given a chance to continue in the ser.
vice by dropping back into the mex
| lower class.
