COM. TRAuT ON THE STAND.

Commander Traut, head of the modern
language department at the Academy,
who went through a gruelling cross
examination yesterday afternoon. re-
sumed the stand this morning, and was
questioned at length by JudgeAdvocate
Watts. Probably in an attempt to
show that Midshipmen have perpetra-
ted rascality at different times, Com
mander Traut. in answer to a question,
told of an incident along about last
Christmas, when three Middies were
seen about the precincts of a depart
ment building at an unusual hour.
Commander Traut said he was told
of this incident by Instructor Wash

and the Midshipmen scampered off on
his appearance. He repeated his testi-
mony of yesterday about an incident
similar in nature, that occurred at
last years annual examinations. Com
mander Traut said he has the greatest
confidence in all the instructors of his
department. and feels that none could
be guilty of giving out unfair informa-
tion i'm any way.

INTERNATIONAL TROUBLES
SAID TO HALT CRUISE.
Reported That Ships Are Detained Not
So Much Because of Inquiry at
Naval Academy.

1t is reported in unofficial sources
her today that the midshipmen's sum-
mer practice squadron, is being de.
tanned in it's sailing not so much be-
cause of the inquiry into the gouging
scandal at the Naval Academy with
the probability of many midshipmen
aboard the vessels being called as
witnesses, but largely because Of the
unsettled international conditions in
Europe and between this country and
Mexico. In other words, every pre-
caution is being taken to meet any
eventual'ty that might develop.
The ships com prising the squadron
are the battleships Missouri, Wiscon-
sin and Ohio. They are not vessels of
the latest type in the Navy, but at the
same time are capable fighting ma
chimes.
The cruise of the midshipmen had
been.planned for a trip through the
Panama Canal to the Pacific Coast,
with San Francisco and the Exposition
as the main objective point. Because
of the unforeseen delay, it is not un-
likely that the trip through the Canal
will now be abandned entirely, and
the operations of the squadron instruct
ing the embryo officers, confined to the
Atlantic coast.

asked why II. II. Harrison and q. G
kriner, both graduates, were not nun
ished because Of their connection with
the scandal Kriner was not summon
ed before the investigation board. The
reason for this. Commander Traut
said. was that the testimony he could
give was regarded as heresay. The
part of the record referred to was the
testimony of Midshipman Nelson 10 the
effect that Kriner had told him that
Harrison had said Kriner was to see
Professor Cusachs one afternoon. and
Harrison was to telephone to the Ma

On cross-examination Professor Gu

would be made up largely of material
that he had advised Midshipmen Over

mony, witness said he told them to
study the first forty pages Of the

man Carlin reminded the witness that
about three-flfths of the examination

fesor Cusachs replied that his advice
was not given with any unfair purpose.

SOME IMPORTANT PROCEEDINGS
Yesterdays proceedings of the court
of inquiry were decidedly the most inn

ception of the few minutes that Su-
perintendent Fullam was on the stand,
the whole of the courts time was ia
ken up with an exhaustive examina-
ton of Commander +. A. Traut head
of the department of modern Ian
guages, which is the storm center OF
the inquiry
Commander Traut was subjected to
a gruelling fire of questions on cross
examination and when he left the
stand at the close of the days session,
he was reminded that he might be
called again later on. Commander

specially gave warning concerning

But that warning was not needed

frivolously mocked by the CunardCom-

A very pleasant evening was spent
in the Firemen's Hall at West Annap-
oils Tuesday night, when the Bentztown
Bard again delighted his hearers with
his "reminiscences, in flowing verse of
childhood days and thoughts and ways
in the sweet old-fashioned Child
hoods Town"
The word pictures of the sunshine
and gladness of childway an dof the
the small people who danced along the
old tiled paths or under the maple
trees. took the audience on wings Of
memory along the familiar streets
where the little people of the old days
raced and played before cares and
griefs and responsibilities and sacrifi-
ces came to dim the gladness OF life.
In a quiet. clear, tuneful voice.
which produced a sense of restfulness
among the listeners. our Bard brought
10 their minds many memories ofchiId-
hoods character. and thoughts and
views of things and their influences,
suggesting many lessons to our grown
up selves by the introspection. and
refreshing us, as with a holiday, by a
peep back into the sweetness Of old
fashioned things and the people we
have all known long ago.
We are all familiar with our own
particular candy shop" as describebd
by Mr.. Mckenzie,
"T'he stick candy shop
Where the dear little lady sold ginger
beer-pop"
and where the bell tinkled over the
door, and the glass jars held dainties
better than any we have tasted since
those days in Childhood Town" And
we also recognized the young truart,
freebled and hisheveled who had gone
out to swim and hoped to escape de-
lection by his mother. but had to con-
fess mournfuly that
"Taint no use to count on wimmin,
First thing she says You've been in
swimmin'"
Equally familiar was the little fell
low who gets mad and uses little
words quite bad" But the pathos of
"The Little Chap who Hasn't any Ma
and the life portrait of the boy who
gets twisted inside because
Something wants to be good in him

must be felt in the words of Picture
