PEDEN BETWEEN TWO FIRES Missouri Judge Prefers to Brave Wrath of the People Than that of Feder KANSAS CITY, May C. Peden, one of the two St. Clair county judges re- cently sent to jall for refusing to order a tax levy to pay certain bonds on a rall- road in that county that was never bullt, 's said to be willing to obey the federal court's mandate. Mob law has previously been threatened in St. Clair county at the slightest suggestion of paying for the bonds, and if Judge Peden should agree to the levy it 1s belleved by federal offi- clals here that the citizens of that county would deal severely with him. For years the judges of the county have refused to issue the levy, and whenever their capture could be effected the different sets of judges have been sent to jall by the federal court, sitting In Kansas City, two sets of the judges having spent their entire terms behind the ba A month ago three of the newly-elected judges stole into Osceola at night to hold court and lssue a tax levy to run the county.

Bowlby, John A. Cleveland, Tran- gett F. Teller, Raymond A. Linton, Birchie 0. Mahaftey. All these cadets ure of the second class The dismiesed lowlug states: Bowlby, Nebraska; Cleve- land, Alabama; Teller, New York: Linton, Michigan; Mahaffey, Texas The following cadets have been sus- pended. Olan C. Aleshire, lllinols; Ben- jamin F. McClellan, Mississippi; James A. Minnesota; Charles Telford, all of the second class. Also Thomas N. Gimperling, Ohlo, and Harry Hawley, New York, of the third class. These cadets are suspended without pay until April 1, 1602 The order of dismissal fs signed by Sec- retary Root and states that it is lasued by direction of the president upon recommen- dation of the superintendent of the military academy. The same language is used re- garding the suspensions. There was no court-martial of these cadets, but under the law the secretary has the power to dis- miss or suspend cadets upon recommenda- tlon of the superintendent A board of officers in this particular case was appointed, which made a thorough ex- amination of the disturbance. The board reported the facts to the superintendent and the superintendent made his report and recommendations to the secretary of war and upon this report the secretary acted cadets are from the fol- Utah; Henry L. Bowlby, one of the cadets dis- | missed, is from Crete. His father is oue of the best known newspaper men in the state, and all reports from West Point up to the present showed that the young man had made an exceptionally good rec- ord, standing high in his studies. REPORT OF COLONEL MILLS He Gives Detalls of the Offenses for Which Dismissals Have Been Made. WEST POINT, N. Y., May 22.—The five cadets who were today dismissed from the military academy and those who were sus- pended have all departed for their respec- tive homes. There was no demonstration on the part of the other cadets and all is quiet here tonight There is not likely to be an uprising among the comrades of those relegated to civil life, as was anticipated from some sources. There is a distinction between dismissal and a discharge from the mili- tary academy. When a cadet s dismissed it is final, and he can be reinstated only by a special act of congress. He also for- feits his travel pay. In the case of a dis- charge a cadet may re-enter the academy by a reappolntment and the approval of the academy board. There are no words of censure here for the ‘course Colonel Mills has taken in his effort to maintain discipline. The following is the report of Colonel A. L. Mills, superintendent of the West Point Military academy, upon which wa based the action of the secretary of war in dismissing the five cadets and suspend- ing six others for a year Colonel Mils says: “I have the honor to report that at dusk on the evening of April 16, 1901, immediately after the dis- missal of the battalion of cadets on its return from supper, a large number of cadets became engaged in an insubordinate demonstration directed at the superintend- The demon- stration took place in the main sally port of cadet barracks, then in the area of the barracks, in the sink, on the plain north of the barracks and, finally, in front of the superintendent’s quarters. It consisted of cheers, ending with the names of two re- cently punished cadets, several profane vells directed at the superintendent and the moving of the reveille gun from its accustomed place to a4 position on the plain immediately In front’ of (he superintend- ent's quarters, at the door of which the muzzle was pointed. Cause of Demonstration. “The pretext for this demonstration was a punishment inflicted on Cadet R. Ralston, second class, in orders published at parade that evening. The actual cause as estab- lished by the testimony of cadets under oath, taken by a board of officers con vened the following morning and which has made a long and exhaustive investigation into the affair, was the resentment of a group of Insubordinate cadets of the second class at measures taken by the superin- tendent to enforce the law forbidding hazing. “When the ecivilian candidates reported at the military academy for the March en- trance examinations it became evident that members of the fourth class were dis- posed to improperly Interfere with them. On March 1 Cadet J. B. Richardson was detected molesting one and was punished. On March 27, 1901, Cadet Lieutenant Myron v, second class, was punished for * fourth-class men in the manner condemned in the report of the covgres- sional Investigating committee in session hero last winter. On April 13, 1901, Cadet Robert R. Ralston, second class, was pun- ished for a flagrant neglect of duty Cadets Meet in Secret, “The evidence taken before the hoard shows that the group of cadets referred to, resenting the first and second of the above punishments, began to engage in secret mectings in which the superintendent's actions were critlcised and condemned and ugly terms were applied to him before other cadets. The evidence shows that the demonstration was first proposed in ranks, immediately after the order punishing Cadet Ralston was published, by three cadets prominent In the group, and the ar- rangements for {t were completed by them in the mess hall at supper. “I have read carefully all the evidence taken by the board of investigating officers. It supports the findings and shows that considerable has yet to be accomplished to jmplant In cadets the essentials of good discipline when matters concerning the proper treatment of new cadets are con- cerned. This has been a 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. Punishments alsu which have seemed to have accomplished the end In view have been invariably re- mitted when the fao: became plain.” The superintendent then gives the names of the cadets recommended for dismissal and suspension, and adds: “Of these cadets, those belonging to the second class have all been prominent in the Insubordinate group of cadets to which reference has been made. Cadets Gimper- ling and Hawley were engaged last sum- mer with other cadets of the third class in 4 disrespectful demonstration against an officer. The punishment ywarded was re- mitted on the voluntary expression of re- t {rom the class for the matter and its as the result of the promise to for the future from such affairs “WHh reference to the other cadets whe participated in the affair adequate punish ment can be awarded them here. Many un doubtedly held no intention of being in | surbordinate in their action and each will | be dealt with acording to his conduct, tak | ing this fully into consideration “There are other subjects, such as class meetings and, similar matters which evidence and findings show require atten | tion. . These will receive careful attentior here and then other steps will be within the powers. of the superintendent to break up class organizations as factors in discipline “The mait issus, however, is clear and has no particularly new phases. It {s simply a reaction within the present second class which perpetrated the hazing outrages of 1899 and in which the turbuleut element always strong in it, hae gotten control of the better element. abstain No Clemency Possibic, ‘L belleve it is necessary for the di pline of the corps of cadets that the lead ers i the insubordination be separated from the academy for good. To permit them to remain under any promise of ref- ormation would, in my judgment, be a mis- take and might Involve very serious con- sequences. The academy caunot afford to have any repetition of hazing or other out- breaks. The present demonstration plainly exhibts amoug its Jeaders a total lack of appreciation of , their reeponsibilities | i | dets finishing their thlrd year at the mili- tary academy. It was stated at the War department to day that hu complaints had been received regarding the superintendent of the acad- emy, but on the other hand occasion was taken to highly praige the administration of Colonel Mills, Some suggestion had been made that the cadets resented the se- lection of Colongl Mills because his rank In the regular establishment was that of captaln. It was pointed out as a reply to this that many of the leading colleges throaghout the country selgcted men of about Colonel Mills' age for the head educational institutions and tuot it had been attended with good results, It was longer thought necessary to have a very old man at the head of a college, nor was It necessary to have am old officer at the head of the military academy Statement of Cadets, NEW YORK, May 22.-The five dismissed West Polnt cadets came directly to this city and tonight gave out the followiug signed statements “Having been urged by representatives | of the press individually for statements concerning our expulsion from the United States Military academy, particularly in responge to the published reports from Washington outlining our breach of disci- pline, which was furnished by the academy authorities, deem it the part of duty to oursclves, and yet in accord with pro- | priety, to make the following |~ “First—We are surprised at the severe punishment have recelved for what we have never considered a very serious offense cond—The manner In which we were summarily dismissed from the grounds of our cherished institution after three years of labor was mare surprising to us “Third—We have not the slightest knowl- edge of the evidence that has been ob- tained against us, nor the names of the we we trial, such as is known to military cus- tom.
