West Point Cadet Corps Expansion

—It is reported that the cadet barracks at West Point are already crowded as a result of the recent act of Congress doubling the cadet corps there. When the corps reaches the authorized maximum, there will be between 900 and 1,000 cadets, and this increase in students will make necessary the construction of new mess halls, barracks, hospitals, officers' quarters, and alterations in other buildings, estimated to involve an expenditure of $3,074,079. The last session of Congress appropriated $120,603.35 for buildings and grounds at West Point.
