PIEBE SAYS HE WAS
GAINED AT ACADEMY
Testimony About Physical Vio-
lence Given for First Time
at Trial.

Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD.
ANNAPOLIS Nov. 16.-Drect physical
violence was charged for the first time
during the present series of courts mar
tial at the Naval Academy against Mid
shipman George Nj. Lord of Honolulu.
member of the first class, who was on
trial during the whole OF to-day's ses-
sion on charge of hazing Fourth Class
man Wendell r. Allen, Jr., of Dewey,
Okla. There were three specifications
in support of the charge.
1t is alleged that early in October.
soon after the academy had resumed
it's session, Allen was ordered to Lords
room by the latter. caused to do physical
exercises without authority and whipped
with cane or stick. Lord denied all OF
these allegations when he went on the
stand i'm his own defense.
There was direct conflict of testimony
between Allen and Lord, and the case
presents serious difficulties to the court.
However. there was some corroborative
testimony on behalf of the accused. Mid
shipmeu of different classes testifying
that they were at the table where the
order was supposed to have been given
and heard nothing of II. There were
also some witnesses who attempted to
establish a bad reputation for Allen
and others who testified as to the good
standing of Lord.
Allen testified that Lord had told him
to go to his CLord's) room and had
asked him "A question. When he failed
to answer it, Lord, he said, ordered him
to do knee bends" form of physical
exercises, and afterward hit him three
times with a stick or cane, saying II
like to do this, like to see you squirm."
Midshipman Paul Jackson. Lords
roommate. called by the defense said
that he did not remember seeing Allen
in the room and when asked IL he had
ordered any men to do exercise decllneu
to answer, stating that he might incriml-
nate himself Allen had said that jack
son was in the room during part of the
hazing.
One of the witnesses who testified to
the good reputation and standing OF
Lord. was Charles J. Mccarthy, former
ly of Hawaii Mr.. Mccarthy showed
his interest in the case by attending the
whole session. Even more interested
was Miss Helen Plimmer of Brooklyn,
Midshipman Lords fiancee and her
mother, Mrs. w. J. Plimmer.
Allen has submitted his resignation
from the academy it being stated that
he could not bear his treatment by the
upper classmen. which has become worse
since it was known that he had made
statements upon which upper classmen
were to be tried.
The resignation of Midshipman James
G.. Bonifant Of Powhatan, Va, submit
ted for similar reasons, was accepted to-
day. At least one other member of the
fourth class is known to have resigned
for the same cause. and Il Is believed
that a number Of others who gave diff
ferent reasons really resigned on ac-
count of their bad treatment.
