The board of inquiry appointed to hives
tlgate the charges of hazing made against
the white members of the class of seamen
gunnirs at Uie Navy Yard met In the new
court-martial room shortly after 10 o'clock
this morning. After remaining In secret
session for aii hour and a Lalf the board an
nounces! that the siwsions would be open
to the public
The board consisted of Commander W.
Maynard, president; Lieutenant Comman
der Richard Vtalnwright, and Lieutenant
W. W. KlmhalL Ensign Warreu J. Ter
liune officiated as recorder, and'put the
questions to the witnesses.
The subject matter of the board's In
quiry has been fully and exclusively- print
ed in The Tin -s There are thirty-three
members of the class of seamen gunners,
men advanced for special aptitude they
have shown In the duties assigned them.
Four of the men are totorecL
The men are all compelled to eat at the
same table and bunk in the same quarters.
The white protested and agreed, it Is
said, to ostracise their colored classmen.
After committing numerous outrages
upon the colored men, such as emptv
iug cuopldors upon the mattresses of their
bunks, soaking the. mattresses and cover
ing them with blankets, they finally "keel
hauled" the negroes, lr is said, by drop
ping them In the water when it. was
at anything but a comfortable temperature.
Everything In fact. It Is Mild, was done
to drive the colored men from the class.
COLOR LINE INVOLVED.
There is. therefore, much res-ting upon
the result of the board's Investigation that
was begun today. It is practically, to de
termine whether the color line shall be
drawn In the United Mates navy.
The board is merely an Indicting body,
lr it Is round that offenses have oern com
muted ami the njines of the perpetrators
of the offenses can be learned, tney will
be held to answer t fnruaeuurt-nartial.
Upon thedeterrainatii.il to make the pri-cet-dings
public Commander Maynard took
his seat at the he-ad of the table. Lieuten
ant Commander Walnwright sat on his
(.right and Lieut. Kimball on Ins left. En
sign rertiune was seated at the otner end
oi the table.
Commodore John A. Howell, command
ant of the Navy Yard, was tho rirst wit
ness calks! before the board. He knew
nothing of the matter at issue of hi per
sonal cogulzaiice. Officially the witness
had receiv ed a report from one of the lieu
tenants some time in October. The report
was verbal, and to the effect that a col
ored classman had compkilned to him that
he was struck over the eye by a fellow
gunner. The report was afterward em
bodied iu writing, making complaint of
hazing on the night of November 11. Lieut.
Blockllrger made the report to Cotumod.ire
llowell.
Ensign Williams bad submitted one or
two memoranda, the wilnesssald. regard
ing his views and belief concerning haz
ing. Certain members of theclass bad dis
claimed any knowledge ct IrreguXarities.
itness did not remember the names of the
men.
"Have you ever heard any hootipj; or
Jeering of any members of the cias by
other members?' asked the recorder.
"I have not." was the answer.
RUMORS WERE TRUE.
The reports of theofflcers were then read.
The Investigations of the officers, as their
reports irdlcated. found that the rumors re
lated above were true, and that the hair
had not been told. The colored men had been
J.n red at. bullets bad been thrown at them,
thelrtockera and beds ha.d been despoiled,
and they had b"en subjects or boemT-in-Jury.
The uam-3 of the perpetrators of the
dee-di were notknowa.
Ensign George W. tW!!iams succeeded
Commodore Howell Iu the witness chair.
I know nothing personally or the al
leged hazing," said he. "except seeing the
wound on the face of J. A. Jackson, col
ored, said to have been strock by a fcUow
clasman. C.iu you name the daymen who have
disavowed all knowledge of the occur
renrej in question?"
"There were atioat twenty of them, and
I do not remember tb-ir names, but can
furnish tliem." answered the witness.
"What opportunity," asked the recorder,
"has the officer or the day for observing
coudact of seamen during dij and night?"
"Cctwcen the hours of 1.C0 p. m. and a
a. m" sale! the witness, "he has the onnor-
tunttyhewatitsto make. Inthedayttmethe
men are in the shop."
In answer to tlie query if any extra In
spection and Watch had been made since
the reiiorted outrages, witness said an ex
tra guard of four was on watch each night.
Inspections are now sometimes madeafter
12 o'clock midnight- No hazing has oc
curred cuimc; tne nours the new watch
stood, from t p. m. to 6 a. in., so the wit
ue3.s stated.
A report had rcichcd witness that lnult
Ing language had been used toward Jackon
on November 16.
Witness said that he obeyed an order of
the commandant in seeking to learn from
Inquiry among the seamen the sentltn"nt
among the classmen. Several seamen
stated "that it wasn't right that a nigger
should be placed over white people."
At the conclusion of Ensign Williams
testimony the board adjourned for luncheon.

St. Louis. Mil., Xor. 23. A special from

at the liucaeli ring yesterday afternoon
in consequence or the poor righting quali
tirjr the bulls.
The 10,000 spectators begin to show
their dipleaure Irom the uvraent tee first
bull made it appearance in the arena.
As thesetond anil third animaU proved
eiiuallv had an unknown individual luirlrd
a plank at one of the fizbUrs in the ring.
This act served as a signal Tor the ex
cited multitude to behave in a like man
ner, with tl e result that the ring was
itrewn with chairs, cushion and lumber,
which had been thrown lnm the botes
ami fences surrounding InecoIlLseum.
The bull lighters ran Tor their lives. It
was only on account of the presence of the
large body of soldiers, who threatened to
Tire on the mob. that the total di-tmctkin
of the structure was- averted.
The mnnasfuient was lined 5500 and
ordered to return the admittance price,
which was $i per capita. Several people
were more or less Injured.
This demonstration Is likely to result In
the suppression or bull fighting for mime
time to come.
