WASHINGTON, June 6. Following tbo
oxamplo sot. t West Tolnt. the superin
tendent of the Naval academy has caused a
cadet to bo dlnnlssed for hazing. In this
rme, however, that of Calvin Juy Creassy,
(it' the fourth class, of California, the ac
cused was tried by court martial and regu
larly convicted, Tho statement In the case,
:nde public ot tho Navy department Is as
follows:
"Tlio court martial before which Naval
Cadet Calvin Joy Creitssy, fourth clasu, was
tried Juno 3, convened by tho superintend
ent of tho Naval acadenmy, pursuant to tho
authority Invested In him by tho act of
congress approved June 23. 1875, having
found tho specification of the charge pre
ferred against him proved, and that ho
wh guilty of tho charge, 'violation of the
Act of congress approved on tho 23rd day
of June, 1S70. to prevent hazing at the
Naval Hcailcmy.'. imd said court having rec
ommended that bn bo dismissed from the
N(nval academy, which recommendation was
approved by tho superintendent, ho was dis
missed from the academy accordingly."
The details ot tho court martial are not

dismissed cadet was discovered In tho act
of hazing a Junior In his room by compell
ing him to stand on his bead. It was sus
pected that tho practice might spread rap
Idly, so drastic nud tpeody action was bad
ns a deterrent.

rains. Dullness men in Albright are talk

New Stamp Tax Law
Changes that Go Into
Effect Next Month.
HONOLULU, May 2S. (Via San Francisco,
June 6. Correspondence of tho Associated
Press.) Tho foundation for tho reports of
bribery In tho legislature has suddenly
been revealed by Jacob Cooper, who wanted
a railroad franchise and who Is the client
whoic name L. A. Thurston refused to re
veal to the grand Jury. Thurstou was un
der sentence for contempt for so refusing,
but the statement of bis client released
him. Thurston was not confined, as the
supreme court hns Issued a writ of habeas
corpus and had not decided the case.
Cooper swears that he was asked by three
different members of the house to pay
money for tbelr efforts In behalf of his
bill to secure a franchise for his railroad.
He has been before the grand Jury and, It
Is stated, has told the Jury the names
of three representatives who solicited
bribes and a report of the grand Jury 1
awaited with much Interest.
A petition was circulated In Honolulu
among lawyers today asking for tho re-1
moval of Judge Humphreys. It was cir
culated by L. A. Thurston and received
tho signatures ot most of the members ot
the local bar. Tomorrow a meeting of
the Hawaiian Rar association will be held
and a resolution against Humphreys will
bo presented.
Altogether It Is a strange state of affairs
that has grown out of tho Investigations
of the grand Jury summoned by Cir
cuit Judge Humphreys to Investigate the
charges of bribery In tho legislature. Last
Saturday three of the best known lawyors
of Honolulu General A. S. Hartwell, W. A.
Kinney and S. M. Dallou were sentenced
to thirty days In Jail for contempt of court
by Judge Humphreys, but before they
reached the prlBon all were released by
pardons by Acting Governor Cooper.
The sentences were on account of an affi
davit which tho attorneys attempted to read
and Die in Humphreys' court to show, on
motion for a change ot venue, the Judge's
personal bias against Kdltor Smith ot tho
Advertiser, who was indicted by the grand
Jury for perjury. In the storm raised by
tho proceedings tho grand Jury's investiga
tion of tho bribery charges has been lost
sight of, but tbc Jury Is still In session nnd
Is believed to be getting close to somo
bribery cases.
