GrcafcRnsh of Applications forto the Academies
Over n Thouimml Petition Receivedby the President Alone Since Con
KreM Irovldeil for the Increase atAVent Point and Annnpol In Sena-
tor Alvo BenlcKed by AMiiIrnnt
The provision made by Congress for alarge Increase In the number of Appoin-tments of cadets to the Military and Navalacademies Sas resulted already in the receipt of a great number of applications bySenators end by the President
Hereafter the number of annual appoint-ments to the Military and Naval
will exceed any previous record in thehistory of those two institutions Theoutput of these schools will therefore beconsiderably increased and the number ofDew officers added each your to the two
of the Service greater than everbetore
Congress having given to the Senatorsfirst time the right of naming cadets to
West Point this variety of patronage islikely to cause some trouble and probablybefore many years have passed Senatorswill the new conditions which haveImposed on them the necessity of selectingyoung men for cadetshlps Both laws areat once effective and the rush of appli-cants for appointments will no doubt con-
tinue until all vacancies have been huedOver 200 such appointments will be
made of which 175 are now available andof these 110 belong to West Point andabout sixty to Annapolis No time hasbeen lost In preparing for the selection ofthese young men While the law does notspecifically state that Senators shall havethe privilege of nominating cadets toWest Point this has been construed by theSecretary of War to be its intent and accordingly a circular letter will be mailedto each Senator requesting that he name-a principal and alternate for West Pointnot later than July 10 and at the sametime notifying them that the entrance ex-
aminations will be held on July 25 at WestPoint
There are ninety Senators and each vrlll-be thus entitled to nominate a boyatlargefrom his State and two alternates to ap-pear in the event of the principals failingto meet the entrance requirements Sen-ators have been notified that all appoint-ments for vacancies not made by July 10will be filled by the department This voryaction resulted some years ago in a pro-vision by which the Secretary of the Navywas prohibited from making cadet
from districts where membersof Congress had failed to fill vacanciesthrough Indifference or neglect the resultbeing to give the Secretary the privilegeof appointing boys from any section of thecountry and assigning them to almost any

Congressional districtWest Point is large enough to meet the
increased quota having quarters for atleast 590 cadets The quota now allowed is331 and with 110 additional there will still i
be room left Of the total strength nowauthorized for the Military Academy fiftycadets will be credited to the orforty more than he has had since the pas-sage of an act one year ago which pro-vided for the appointment of tea in
to the ten which have the Presidents number since the foundation of theschool
Considerable misunderstanding as to thenumber allowed the PreskIent has led to atremendous rueh of applications to theWhite House and perhaps 1000 or moreyoung men from every part of the countryhave applied for appointments The twenty appointments allowed will be made V1
the next few weeks and while no definiteconrse has been decided upon it Is probable that most of the places will go to sonsned close relatives of Army officers whohave distinguished themselves In the Itfstwar Army men as a rule have no legalresWeace and few can expect favors frommembers of Congress Hence the Presi-dent has Invariably adhered to he polityof his predecessors in reserving places atWest Point and Annapolis for boys whosefamily connections are closely identifiedwith the Army or Navy
Apart from these newlycreated placesat West Point there are about twentyCongressional vacancies which members ofCongress may fill after the examinations-on the 13th inst September has been theusual time for the later examinations butwith such a large new class as will enterthe school this year it has been deemedadvisable to hold the examinations earlierso that the cadets may have the advantageof the summer drill work and experience-in camp
No definite arrangements have yet beencompleted by the Navy Department forcomplying with the terms of the Naval billby which the vacancies at Annapolis here-after will occur at the end of the four Instead of sixyears course The effect ofthe law is to provide 111 vacancies
represented by the class now atsea which graduates finally in June nextand the class graduated at Annapolis today Of these two there are fifty membersafloat and sixtyone graduates of the ouryears course To add over 100 cadets how-ever to the number Just entered and In-
cluding vacancies existing ordinarilywould more than tax the present accom-modations of the school The NavigationBureau therefore has decided to ask forthe appointment of cadets to fill only thosevacancies which are made by the class nowat ea numbering fifty and n a few daysCongressmen will be notified of vacanciesexisting in their districts Senators Wel-lington and McComas will each be enti-
tled to a cadetship at West Point and theFirst and Third Congressional districtswill be entitled to cadetshlps at the NavalAcademy The Fifth district has been
