| CADETS (AN TP HAZING Oommandant at West Point Teatifies Before Oourt of Inquirs OLD TRADITIONS HARD TO OVERCOME Authorities Van Ity Ones When Caught, hbut Undere Men Wil Not Protect Themue vew, WEST POINT, N. Y., Dec. 20.—The inves tigation of the charges of brutel hazing arisiug out of the death of Former Cadet Oscar L. Booz, which & court of inquiry appointed by the secretary of war has had in progress with some intermission for the last two weeks, was concluded at the West Point Military academy this afternoon The military court of inquiry, composed of Generals Broo ates and Clous, to- gether with Captain Dean, the recorder of the court, left for Governor's island to- night and on Monday morning at 10 o'clock they will examine the mass of evidence which they have listened to during the several sesslons of the court something unforeseen occurs will make a report to the War department at Washing ton very soon afterward. While the court of inquiry has been an open one since it began taling testimony, Monday's session will be executive and of no public interest Superintendent Mills and Commandant of Cadets Hein were the chicf witnesses ed today. They produced a lot ot extracts from records of the academy as to the efforts made by the authoritics to abolish hazing of every variety in the in stitution. Colonel Hein produced the superintend- ent’s sick reporis, which showed that Ca- det Hooze had only reported sick one while he was at the academy. He was excused on that occasion from one drill as he was suffering from an acute attack of dlarrhoca. The records made It clenr that Booz had never been absent from breakfast, dinner or supper while he was cadet at West Point. An extract from the records was read by the witness, who said Cadet Booz had avalled himself of the Sat- urday evenlng privilege of going anywhere witbin the reservation on Saturday, Au- gust 6, the day of the Booz-Keller fight Booz reported his golng away at 1:58 p. m. and his return at 3:15 p, m. In reply to General Clous, the witness said that in the summer of 1899, thiough anonymous letters, the brutal hazing of Cadets Mac- Arthur and Haskell came to the knowledge of the academy officials. An investigation was Immediately ordered but no informa- tion as to the facts could be elicited from any of those examined, among whom wera MacArthur and Haskell. The regulations probibiting hazing provided punishment for hazers and hazed alike. ARk fo case of Promise, In telling of the agrecment made b fourth-class men in 1509, among whom w Cadets MacArthur and Grant, not to sub- | mit to bazing, Colonel Hein sid: *I called | the class together (1t was @ very large one) and explained to them the rules and regu- lations prohibiting hazing. 1 told them if they would agree not to submit to hazing | and promiso not to haze anyone them- selves they would rid the academy of a foul blot on its reputation. Soon afterward they appealed to me to be released from this agreement, but I refused. “I also heard,” continued the witness. “that didates preparing at Highland Falls were being hazed and I made an in- vestigation, the outcome of which was the severe punishing of the guilty cadets.' The remainder of the commandant's testi- moeny was mainly an explanation of the actions of the authorities and the measures taken by them to suppress hazing at the academy. The punishments were increased and the number of cadets found gullty of violations of the regulations in 1809 were greatly in excess of the previous year. Speaking generally of hazing, Colonel Hein said: “Hazing is traditional and I am sorry to say s thought by persons inside as well as outside of the academy, to be commendable, and, as long as students hear 1t spoken of In this way, it will be impossi- ble for the authorities to stamp it out." “What methods do you think could be used to stamp out calling out of fourth- class men and subsequent fistic encoun- ters?" asked General Clous ‘Why, I consider that a form of hazing and as long as the cadets don't live up to the agreement not to submit to hazing and the upper class do not cease interfering with them, it will be impossible to sup- press it Former Cadet Smith of Carbondale, 11, testified that he was admitted to the acad- emy in June, 1898, and discharged In Jan- uary, 1809 One night seven of the witness' class, in- cluding Booz, were called to ex-Cadet Har- lee's tent to be e: cised. Witness did mot remember auy ome having fainted. Ho himself was very much fatigued, but not to the point of exhaustion. . “DId Cadet Booz ever complain to you?" “No, sir; he never complained of his treatment.” V0V eV eV VeV e VeV Ve Ve eV VeVe VYo F WOMEN ONLY SOOOOOOCOOOOOOOOGOCOGOOE AL ) r box.
