".Many expenditures wero necessitated," the report says, "because of unwise con tracts that had been entered Into by those In chtrgoof tho postal sendee of tho Island durlnf the preceding fiscal year, and which could not be abrogated.

It can be truthfully said that there Is a pressing necessity for a complete tearing down and a new building up. "Putting the matter In a few words, It ran he truthfully said that the barracks In which tho cadets sleep and study and live, when not in recitation rooniB or on tho drill ground, are little better equipped than the barracks at the average county poor-hous- e, In many of the rooms the cadets am crowded. The ventilation of these rooms Is In accordance with hygienic, no- tions of a century ago and is simply ex- ecrable" Features of the present arrangement which are specially condemned are the electric light and gas plants; no water or sanitary arrangements In the barracks and no bathrooms; tho lack of church facilities and the hotel, which Is described as "a mere hut." The water supply also Is threatened and a water famine Is imminent nearly every summer. The report says the board Is satisfied that hazing has been eradicated.

Canflcld, who wrote tho article objection- able to tho court, was fixed at thirty days In Jail. The cases against S. S. Carvalbo, financial manager of the paper, and John C. Hammond, assistant city editor, were d. Judge Hanecy declared that the rases against W , Hearst, owner Homer Davenport, cartoonist, nnd Clare Hrlggs, also a cartoonist, would pend until such tlmo as these respondents tould be brought Into court by the sheriff. Former Governor Altgeld, one of the counsel for the re- spondents, entered n formal exception to tho decision. "This case. I may say," the court re- marked, "Is not appealable. You mny file a bill of exceptions for n writ of error, however. I am willing to delay the solv- ing of papers un Mr. Lawrence and Mr. Cnnfleld till you have drnwn your bill." "We do not feel that we have any favor coming from this court." Mr. Allgcld an- swered. "We are much obliged." The court room was crowded when Judge Hanecy read the decision. The article upon which the proceedings In contempt were based was a criticism of tho court's decision on application for the forfnlture of the char-tervo- f the People's Gns and Coke company. Judge Hanecy said If the matter puhllhed were allowed to go unnoticed by the court It paved the way for other attacks, and that the Judiciary, If not held In respect, would fall, with all democratic government. The article, the court declared, was not merely an attack on the people nnd on Ihe court, but a bold threat to every other court. It therefore should not go unpunished. A few minutes after the rendering of the decision and the Imposition of the sentences as to Lawrence and Canflcld, Judge Dunne, upon application, Issued n writ of habeas corpus as to them, returnable Immediately.

General John C. BateR, In command of the Department of the Missouri, has received notice from tho secretary of war to report at Washington on or before November L'5, whero ho Is to serve on a board nt nrii army officers to consider matters pertaining to iniana posts and reservations, "I don't know what the scope of tho board may be." said tho general yesterday, "nor do I know what recommendations, If nny, it will make touching the post of thin department. However, It Is not likely that any more posts will hn cstshlfniinH in this department. Some may bo abandoned, untie tno capacity of others may be or diminished aa circumstances re- quire. "As I understand It the board will con- sider such questions as the location of camps authorized under a recent act of con-gro- for the Instruction of soldier, in ih regular army and national guard. We havo now in this department two military schools, one an Infantry and cavalry achool at Fort Leavenworth and th nthat- - ..hi of casralry and light artillery at Fort Riley. it is (icsirabio that a considerable force- - be stationed at both of these schools In order that they may avail themselves of tho In- - strustlon. "Then It may tako up the question of in- creasing and .diminishing tho facilities of various army posts, making such changes ns best to meet the demands of the coun- try. Things are In an unsettled state now and havo been since tbe various garrisons were ordered to the front at the beginning of tho Spanish-America- n war. and It Is nec- essary to reconstruct. Troops perhaps will bn transferred from one post to another, tho objects being to locate them where they can ho best taught, where they can be most economically maintained and where they can be most quickly nnd conveniently moved. Then, of course, they must be sta- tioned with reference to the assurance of protection they will afford to settlers near Indian reservHtlons and the frontiers. "It Is not llkoly that these duties will keep mo at Washington a great while,- - and so far as I know no one has been ordered to tako temporary command of this depart- ment In my absence. It may be that I will bo directed to command my department from there." Tho board of which General Hates will bo a member will comprise Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles, Major Generals John R. Hrooke, Hlwell S. Otis, S. M. H. Voung, Ar-th- MncArthur. Brigadier Generals John C Hates. John M. Randall and William A. Kohbe, The personnel Includes all of the general army officers now In tbo United States. TO BID F0RMAIL CONTRACT IMonrrr Mlm" Mtrpbensnn Tells How the Malls Ought tn He Carried.

"It has been nearly 100 yoars slnco WestPoint was founded and from the birth oftho Institution nearly all the Improve-mcnl- B

tirely Inadequate to meet present condi-tions. Few of them am equipped with anyof the conveniences to he found In theaverage public building In the country dis-

tricts In many of tho Btatcs. It can betruthfully said that there Is a pressingnecessity for a complete tearing down anda new building up.

"Putting the matter In a few words, Itran he truthfully said that the barracks Inwhich tho cadets sleep and study and live,when not in recitation rooniB or on thodrill ground, are little better equipped thanthe barracks at the average county poor-hous- e,

In many of the rooms the cadetsam crowded. The ventilation of theserooms Is In accordance with hygienic, no-

ecrable"Features of the present arrangement

which are specially condemned are theelectric light and gas plants; no water orsanitary arrangements In the barracks andno bathrooms; tho lack of church facilitiesand the hotel, which Is described as "amere hut." The water supply also Is

threatened and a water famine Is imminentnearly every summer.

The report says the board Is satisfiedthat hazing has been eradicated. Fullcredit Is given to Colonel Mills for this.Tho report aUo says that the sturdy sup-port given Colonel Mills by tho secretaryof war haa done much to establish nnd

discipline on a sound basis.It Is recommended that tho academy Im

BATES TALKS OF ARMY WORK

TlUriisse Prospective- - Action of llonrilto Consider Inland Post anil

llesrrratlons.

General John C. BateR, In command of theDepartment of the Missouri, has receivednotice from tho secretary of war to reportat Washington on or before November L'5,whero ho Is to serve on a board nt nriiarmy officers to consider matters pertainingto iniana posts and reservations,

"I don't know what the scope of thoboard may be." said tho general yesterday,"nor do I know what recommendations,If nny, it will make touching the post ofthin department. However, It Is not likelythat any more posts will hn cstshlfniinH inthis department. Some may bo abandoned,untie tno capacity of others may be

or diminished aa circumstances re-quire.

"As I understand It the board will con-sider such questions as the location ofcamps authorized under a recent act of con-gro-

for the Instruction of soldier, in ihregular army and national guard. We havonow in this department two militaryschools, one an Infantry and cavalry achoolat Fort Leavenworth and th nthat- - ..hiof casralry and light artillery at Fort Riley.it is (icsirabio that a considerable force- - bestationed at both of these schools In orderthat they may avail themselves of tho In- -strustlon.

"Then It may tako up the question of in-

creasing and .diminishing tho facilities ofvarious army posts, making such changesns best to meet the demands of the coun-try. Things are In an unsettled state nowand havo been since tbe various garrisonswere ordered to the front at the beginningof tho Spanish-America- n war. and It Is nec-essary to reconstruct. Troops perhaps willbn transferred from one post to another,tho objects being to locate them where theycan ho best taught, where they can be mosteconomically maintained and where theycan be most quickly nnd convenientlymoved. Then, of course, they must be sta-tioned with reference to the assurance ofprotection they will afford to settlers nearIndian reservHtlons and the frontiers.

"It Is not llkoly that these duties willkeep mo at Washington a great while,- - andso far as I know no one has been orderedto tako temporary command of this depart-ment In my absence. It may be that I willbo directed to command my departmentfrom there."

Tho board of which General Hates will boa member will comprise Lieutenant GeneralNelson A. Miles, Major Generals John R.Hrooke, Hlwell S. Otis, S. M. H. Voung, Ar-th-

MncArthur. Brigadier Generals JohnC Hates. John M. Randall and William A.Kohbe, The personnel Includes all of thegeneral army officers now In tbo UnitedStates.
