WEST POINT, N. Y Mny 22. Tho flvo
cadets who were today dismissed from the
military academy and those who wore sus
pended havo all departed for their respec
tive homes. Thero was no demonstration
on the part of tho other cadets and nil
Is quiet hero tonight.
There Is not likely to be an uprising
among the comrades of those relegated
to civil life, ns was anticipated from some
sources. There Is n distinction between
dismissal nnd a discharge from the milt
tary academy. When n cadet Is dismissed
It Is final, and ho can be reinstated only
by a special act of congress. He also for
feits dils travel pay. In the ense of a dis
charge a cadet may re-enter the academy
by A reappointment and the approval of the
academy board.
Thero aro no words of censure, hero for
the 'course Colonel Mills has taken In his
effort to maintain discipline.'' "
The following Is tho report of Colonel
A. L. Mills, superintendent of the West
Point Military academy, upon which wns
baied the action of the secretary of war
in dismissing the five cadets and suspend
ing six others for a yenr.
Colonel Mils says; "1 have the honor
to report that nt dusk on tho evening of
April 16, 1901, immediately nfter the dls
missal of the battalion of cadets on Its
return from supper, n largo number of
cadets became engaged In nu Insubordinate
demonstration directed at tho superintend
cnt of the military academy. Tho demon
stratlon took place In tho main sally port
of cadet barracks, then In the area of tho
barracks. In tho sink, on the plain ."north
of the barracks nnd, finally, In front of the
superintendent's quarters. It consisted of
cheers, ending with the nnmeB of two re
cently punished cadets, several profane
yells directed at the superintendent and
the moving of the reveille gun from Its
nccustomed place to a position on the plain
Immediately In front of the superintend
ent's quarters, at tho door of which tho
muzzle was pointed.
Cnune of Demount ration.
"The pretext for this demonstration was
n punishment Inflicted on Cadet R. Ralston,
second class, in orders published nt parade
that evening. Tho actual cause as estab
llshed by the testimony of cadets under
oath, taken by a board of officers con
voncd the following morning nnd which has
mnde a long nnd exhaustive Investigation
Into the affair, was the resentment of a
group of Insubordinate cadets of tho second
class at measures taken by the superin
tendent to enforce the law forbidding
hazing.
"When the civilian candidates reported
at tho military academy for tho March en
trance exnmlnntlonB it became evident that
members of tho fourth class were dls
posed to Improperly Interfero with them
On March 1 Cadot J. B. Richardson was
dotccted molesting ono and was punished.
On March 2", 1001, Cadet Lieutenant Myron
S. Crlsuy, second class, was punished for
"bracing" fourth-class men In tho manner
condemned In the report of the coogres
slonal Investigating committee In session
hero last winter. On April 13, 1001, Cadet
Robert R. Ralston, second class, was pun
ished for a flagrant neglect of duty.
Cniletn Meet In Secret.
"Tho evidence .taken beforo the board
showB that tho group of cadets referred to,
resenting tho first and second of the above
punishments, began to engage In secret
meetings In which tho superintendent's
actions were criticised and condemned nnd
ugly terms wero applied to him before othor
cadots. The, evidence shows that the
demonstration was llrst proposed In ranks,
Immediately nfter the order punishing
Cadet Ralston was published, by three
cadets prominent In the group, nnd the ar
rangements for It wero completed by them
In the mess ball at supper.
"I have read carefully nil tho evidence
taken by the board of Investigating officers.
It supports the findings and shows that
considerable has yet to bo accomplished
to Implant In cadets tho essentials of good
dlsclpllno when matters concerning tho
proper treatment of new cadets aro con
cerned. ThlB has been n task which has
engrossed my attention for many months
and In endeavoring to secure from cadets
a reasonable regard for the obligations
under which they serve, PunlshmentB alto
which hnvo seemed to have accomplished
tho end In view have been invariably re
mitted when the faot became plain."
The superintendent then gives the names
of the cadets recommended for dismissal
nnd suspension, and adds:
"Of these cadets, those belonging to the
second class have all been prominent In
the Insubordinate group of cadots to which
roferenco hns been made. Cadets Glmper
ling and Haw ley were engaged last sum
mer with other cadets of tho third class In
a disrespectful demonstration against an
officer. The punishment warded was re
mitted on the voluntary expression of ro
gret from the dais tor the matter and Its
promise to abstain for the futuro from
such affairs.
"With reference to the other cadets who
participated In the offalr adequate punish
ment can be nwarded them here. Many un
doubtedly held no Intention of being In
surbordlnatu In their action and each will
be dealt with ncordlng to his conduct, Ink
ing this fully Into consideration.
"There arc other subjects, such as class
meetings and.Mmilar matters which the
evidence and findings show require atten
tion. These will receive careful attention
here and then other steps will be taken
within the powers,, of the superintendent
to break up class organizations as factors
In discipline.
"The mail, lssuei, however. Is clear and
has no particularly new phases. It Is simply
n reaction within he present second class
which perpetrated 'the hazing outrages of
1999 and In which . the turbulent clement,
nlwnyn strong In it, has gotten control nf
the bettor clement.
No Clemency I'limllile.
"1 believe It Is necessary for tho disci
pline of the corns of cadets that tho lead
ers In the Insubordination bo separated
from the academy for good. To permit
them to remain under any promise of ref
ormation would. In ray judgment, bo n mis
take nnd might Involve very serious con
sequences. The academy cannot afford to
havo any repetition of hazing or other out
breaks. The present demonstration plainly
cxh'tbts among Its .leaders n total lack of
appreciation of v their responsibilities und
obligations entirely, lhoxcusablc among ca
dots finishing tho'lr third year tit tho mili
tary academy." ... 1
It wns stated at the War, department to
day that -hd complaints had been received
regarding the superintendent of tho acad
emy. 'but on tho'. other hand occasion was
taken to highly praise the administration
of Colonel .Mills. - Some suggestion had
been mado 'hat he cadets resented tho se
lection of Colonel' Mills because his rank
In the" regular establishment was that of a
captain. Jt was pointed out as n reply to
this that many of tho leading colleges
throughout the country selected men of
nbout Colonel Mills' age for the head of
educational institutions and th.it It had been
attended with good results. It was no
longer thought necessary to havo a very old
man nt the head of a college, nor was It
nccetsary to have art old officer at tho head
of the military academy.
Pfiitenient of Cniletn.
NEW YonK. May 22.-Tho five dismissed
West Point cadets canto directly to this
city and tonight gave out tho following
signed statements:
"Hnvlng befn urged by rcpresentntives
of the press individually for statements
concerning our expulsion from the United
States Military nendemy, particularly in
responso to tho published reports from
Washington outlining our breach of disci
pline, which was furnished by tho academy
authorities', we deem it the part of duty
to ourselves, nnd yet In nccord with pro
priety, to mnko the following:
"First We nre surprised at the scvoro
punishment we have received for what we
hae never considered a very serious
offense.
"Second Tho manner In which wo were
tummarlly dismissed from the grounds of
our cherished Institution after three years
of labor was more surprising to us.
"Third We havo not tho slightest knowl
edge of the evidence that hns been ob
tained ngatnst us, nor the names of the
witnesses, for ho have not had nn open
trial, such ns Is known to military cus
tom. Wo would not feel dissatisfied If it
had been by tho decision of n court
martial. "Fourth Further than this we do not
core now to discuss the nffalr."
Tho cadets will leave for Washington,
D. C, tomorrow morning nnd It Is under
stood they will bring to benr all the In
fluence that they possibly can In their
own behalf before the secretary of war.

Lake Penn has prepared a memorial which
will bo submitted ns a substitute for the

tho substitute proposed by tho committee
appointed a year ago. The session of the
general assembly will occupy all of this
week and n portion of next. Saturday aft

The committee appointed a year ago to
prepare p report upon tho revision of the
creed or testimony of faith with regard
to members of the church Joining secret
orders has made Its report public and will
bo submitted to the convention tomorrow.
It is as follows;
After carefully considering the matter
submitted' to us by the last general as
sembly your commltteo would respectfully
report ;
It does not appear Hint them exists In
the church a demand for li change In our
tho exclusion of members of secret orders
Justify the sending, down in overture the
article under consideration.
It does, however, appear that tho rule Is
variously construed, and that there aro
dlffsrt'nces of administration. Uniformity
In this particular has been rendered moro
difficult by the .multiplication of various
secret orders, with n. great diversity of ob
jects in view.
Some sessions havo construed the law
as mandatory, nnd consequently requiring
the exculsion of members of secret orders
of overy kind from membership In the
church, Irrespective of the special object
which they may tcek to promoto or the
spirit nnd the attitude of the applicant for
membership in the church. Others have
regarded the law ns advisory In charncter
nnd not necessarily excluding from mem
bership lit certain societies. In some ciikph
sessions have recognized the principle thnt
thero mny be exceptions to all rules, and
havn used discretion In Individual cases,
while others havo felt free to exercise nny
discretion In the premises.
Wo recommend tho following for your
ndoptlon;
Resolved, That, while tho fifteenth article
of our testimony defines In a manner suffi
ciently explicit the general Inw of our
chumh on the subject of secretlsm, sessions
potsfBs nnd nro expected to exercise a
wise discretion in the administration of the
law, dealing with such cases ns may arise
upon their merits and In such a way as
may best promote (lod's glory nnd tho
peaco and prosperity of the church,

of the firm of Kuhn, Lneb & Co. wns a
witness today before tho subcommittee of
the United Stntcs industrial commission.
Mr. Schlff snfd his firm had been largely
Interested In the reorganization of tho
Union Pacific and tho Baltimore & Ohio
railroads. Concerning the community of
Interest Idea, Mr. Schlff said that tho
Twncrs of road.s wero forced to take, steps
to protect themselves ngnlnst the demoral
ization and consequent depression of value
of property brought nbout by nntl-poollng
legislation.
"It Is human nature," ho said, "that
every man tries to get abend of his neigh
bor. As a consequence when one carrier
makes a rate of transportation tho ship
per goes to a competing road to cut under
that rate. Tho result Is that railway prop
erty suffers nml the companies ale, unable
to pay high wages to their working force.
-Now, If the Btock'holdcrs of tho ono road
hold stock In the other, not necessarily
tho, controlling Interest, they will npt vote
to take any action tj reduce the values
of their holdings. That Is what Is known
by the term community of Interest."
Senator Kylp asked Jf n consolidation of
the trnmscontlncntnl lines would not kill
off competition.
"I do not believe that consolidation will
over come," said Mr. Schlff. "Certainly
not In this generation. If It snould over
come It will be n strong nnd convincing
nrgument for tho construction of n parallel
lino."

NEW YORK, May 22. The Mall and
Express says: "Several Important Confer
ences have been held recently between
Georgo J. Gould and representatives of the
Pennsylvania to discuss tho plans of tho
former for extending tho Gould line? to
tldewnter. Tho Pennsylvania nnd tho Now
York Central companies, which aim to con
trol the territory cast of Chicago, nre an
noyed nt tho announcement that Mr. Gould
Intends to bring his trains Into thK city
or sonio other prominent seaboard city.
"For scvernl days n story hns been cur
rent that the Rockefellers invited Mr.
Gould to accept nn interest In the Dela
ware, Lackawanna & Western railroad,
using it ns an outlet for the Wabash. One
theory advanced today was that Mr. Gould
would agree to abnndon the extension nf
tho Wheeling & Lake Krlo nnd Watnsh Into
Pittsburg, which the Pennsylvania desires
to seo headed off.
"From sources close to Mr. Gould It Is
learned that tho Pittsburg extension will
bo rushed throiigh. Mr, Gould hns men
figuring on an Independent route from Pitts,
burg to Baltimore, Just as Mr Carnegie
planned and Bomn think that tho persons
nibbling at tho Western Maryland rail
road represent Mr. Gould. This road would
make n vnluable link In a through line.
"So far nn the seaboard end of the Gould
system is concerned, however, Mr. Gould
and li's friends aro maintaining tho-Mrlctcs
silence,"

says: Thu nctual consolidation of the
Memphis and 'Frisco .railroads is to be
effected as soon as the connecting link be
tween tho two lines from Afton to .Miami,
I. T., Is finished. This will be by July 1.
Tho general offices of the Memphis, will
then bo romoved from this city to St.
Louis and duplicate agencies everywhere
on tho Memphls-'Frlsco system will bo
nholished. Tho Memphis Is to become a
link In a new transcontinental chain which
li projected to oxtnnd from Blr'ralnghnm,
Ala., St. Louis nnd Kansas City to Man
znnllln, on the Pnclflc coast of old Mexico,
It Is certain thnt one sut of officials will
control tbe 'Frisco-Memphis system and It
is probable that n new nnmo will bo chosen
for the combination.
