CAPTAIN HOPKINS DISMISSED
For Running Away from the yellow Fcver
ut Pensacola.


nt Pensacola.
Captain Alfred Hopkins, heretofore commander
Of the Pensacola navy-yard has been dismissed
from the service for desertion of his post of duty
His dismissal was ordered by the President in pur
suance OF the recommendation of the court. mar
tial appointed to try the charge preferred against
him OF desertion. The result Of the trial was a
great surprise to the accused officer and his friends
as they had supposed that sufficient evidence
OF an extenuaiiDg character had been SUBJ
mitted to the court to at least save him
from dismissal for the technical violation Of the
rules OF the Navy. The evidence Of Surgeon
owen In particular was depended upon to estab-
iish case justification In behafof the defense;
put me court the Secretary of the Navy, and the
President adopted the view that the circum-
stances attending the abandonment of his post of
such breach OF discipline, and the dis
missal WINS accordingly ordered. Cap
tain Hopkins was at the Navy Department
Wednesday and held brief interview with Sec
retary Chandler the result of which was to show
the dismissed officer that his only remedy now
lies with Congress- as his dismissal from the ser
vice is absolute, and the Executive can, there
fore, proceed no further in the matter. Captain
Hopkins has been more than thirty years in the
Navy, and he was but recently promoted to q cap
taincy, the promotion having been made for long
and meritorious service.
