ing has been in full blast since he be-
came a midshipman a little more than
two years ago. and that oftentimes the
victims were compelled to perform

DEATH OF W. J. HYDE.
Remains to be Brought Here TOmor-
row for Burial.

Death claimed William jenkins
Hyde, aged 5S years, who passed away
yesterday at his home in Baltimore.
The deceased was a former Annapoli-
tan, son of Mr.. Elias G. Hyde of
this city and better known to his
friends here as "Jink" Hyde. lie
grew up as a lad at the old home of
his parents on Main str Get. where the
CAN'T Hotel now stands.
Death was due to paralysis. The
deceased had been in feeble health for
the past two years. He is survived by
a widow and three sons. One sister
Mrs. Annie N. Hyde. wife of Charles
W. Ridgeway, also survives. The re-
mains will be brought here tomorrow
Saturday afternoon for interment in
the family burying ground in St.
Anne's cemetery at 80 o'clock.
Mr. Hyde had many friends in An
napolis where he lived for ON years.
AT one time he was a printer and work
ed at typesetting at the old Maryland
Republican Office when George Cotton
was editor and William M. Abbott was
managing editor. lie was also in busi-
ness here for some time conducting the
theatrical business at the old Masonic
Opera House on the corner Of Prince

his class. standing No 3. in order OF

vonngest He passed his twentieth
birthday Just one week ago, June q
Nelson occupied the witness chair for
nearly four hours, during which he
was under a constant fire OF questions,
on direct, cross and redirect exam
ination. He plainly showed the re-
suits of the strain that his predicament
has brought upon him.
Nelson denied, among other things,
that he ever had in his possession more
than one key, and said that this be-
longed to Alidshipman Horn, a class
mate, and that he borrowed il a long
time ago for the purpose OF getting
into a room of Bancroft Hail. where
ne could use typewriter, and not for
the Illicit purpose OF gaining access to
any of the departmental headquarters.
This key eventually went into the pos
session of Midshipman Reagle. one OF
the interested parts TO tn inquiry.
Reagle borrowed the key on two or
three occasions. and the last time he
did so, he failed to return it. Nelson
admitted that he had an idea what
Reagle wanted with the key. that is,
for use in the Raging" of marks.
Nelson stated that he had not engaged
in any of these raging exploits since
last November.

Time About to Expire

1t is generally known that the three
years term sof Father Rector, of st.
Mary's will expire in August, and it is
possible he will be removed at that
time. Seldom it is a rector of "a Cath

of the priests of the Redemptnrist
Fathers here some years before he be-

REDFIELDs BOOST FOR
PRoHlBITIvE PROTECTION

Protection to American industries
is written in large capitals by Sec
Rotary OF Commerce RedieId, repre-
sentfng a party that has no faith in
protection through the leyying Of tar
ifs.
Mr.. Redfeid would have a law
passed by congress that would pro-
hibit foreigners from selling their
wares in the United States at lower
prices than the Inhabitants thereof
can afford to sell them. The admin
istration is said to be considering
his plan.
That would do away with the per
plexities of tariff levies and would
achieve protection beyond the ex.
pectations Of the republican element.
Mr.. Redfield's admission that a tar
in for revenue only is not producing
revenue results may be q mere pre-.
| election resort, but it certainly is I'm.
usual coming from a free trade
source.
The president Is said to he con
sidering the Redfield plan, though one
cannot always be certain that rumors
are correct. He may look upon Mr.
