whole affair, because the examination
sheets were sent to him. was on the
stand for an hour and half yester-
day morning, and his preliminary ex-
animation Tuesday afternoon consum-
ed two hours. Then the following
mfdshipmen were called in the order
named: Leonard p. VESSEL. o. North

Thomas w Harrison. Jr.. of Virginia

Donald K. Duncan, Of Michigan, Of the

pital for several days, suffering OF an
injury TO the leg sustained in gym

The statement made by all Of those
who testified yesterday, was much in
corroboration of what Moss had tes
titled TO. There was some difference

ALL FIRST CLASSMEN
HAD STRAIGHT dope"
Nelson, Testifying Today, Says
They Realized if Too.
SO DID THE SECOND CLASS.
Evans, One Of Defendants, States That
All Hands Studied Same Matter
for Examinations.

1tidshipmau Ralph Mex Nelson
one of the star" men OF the class re-
Gently graduated FROM the Naval Acad-
envy, frankly admitted before the naval
court Of inquiry this morning that the
advance information he had pertaining
to the late annual examinations in
modern languages. was the matter con
tanned ia the actual examination: that
he disseminated it among a number Of
his classmates; that practically the
whole class had it and studied it in
preparation for the test; and that like
himself, everyone in the class realized
that they had the straight goods.
Testimony similar in its nature was
also given by Midshipman Chaplin T.
Evans. a member Of the former second
class. Evans has been absent during
most of the sessions of the court Of
inquiry because of an injury to his leg
sustained in taking gymnastic exer-
cises. which necessitated his going 20
the naval hospital He was the first
witness called this morning, and with
the examination Of Nelson, makes the
last of the original seven defendants
TO give evidence before the inquiry
the others having testified before the
court yesterday.
Midshipman Moss, the third class
man to whom the papers pertaining
to the examinations were sent through
mail. is a member of the battalion of
which Nelson was the cadet lieuten-
ant-cOmmander. Nelson stated to the
court that he heard that Moss had
some good dope" and he asked the
latters permission to copy il, which
was granted, and he named several of
his classmates to whom he gave this in
formation
Later Nelson testified that Midship-
man Vickery came to him and asked
him TO help several Plebes in their
preparation. and learning that Moss
also had something pertaining to the
fourth class examinations. he was also
permitted 10 make a copy Of that paper
and he gave the requested assistance
to the Plebes.
Nelson stated further that he gave
no thought TO the fact that such
straight information should have been
sent TO Moss through the mail. but that
It was his impression that the paper
probably was an old examination Of a
former class and appeared to be good
dope to study.
Midshipman Evans. among other
things in bis testimony, said that he
could not see why such a large major
ity Of 90 per cent of both the first and
second classes had such exceptionally
good information unless they had seen
what turned out to be the actual paper,
or else got it indirectly
Evans admitted that he saw the orig
inal sheet, but like his roommate, Mid
shipman Hamilton, stated that the pa
per had in some way got mislaid and
was not recovered again until two or
three days after the examination was
over He did not regard the paper as
an actual examination sheet. stating
that its physical appearance was diff
ferent from the arrangement of ques-
tions on former examinations.
