THOSE SUPPLEMENTARY INSTRUCTIONS

WASHINGTON, Oct 24.-Respecting the "supple-
mentary instructions prepared at the Signal Office,
and which Lieutenant Darlington was verbally IN
formed he was not to regard, there is much discus
sion among officials of the War and Navy depart
ments, and it is intmated that an official inyest-
CATION will show that they were deliberately sup
pre- ssed by some one, although it is said they had
been approved by the Secretary of War
1t does not now seem possible that an official
investigation of Lieutenant Garlington's conduct,
as well as of everything relating TO his instructions,
can be avoided; and it appears fairly probable
that Court of Inquiry will also be ordered to in
vestigate the conduct of Commander Wildcs.
Secretary Lincoln has not yet decided whether to
require further explanations from Lieutenant Gar
lington or to order the Court of Inquiry, which
that officer requests in case his supplementary re-
port is not considered satisfactory and conclusive
The Secretary read that document this afternoon,
but had not found time to give 10 the mature con-
sideratiOn necessary, and OF course was not ready
to express any opinion about il. IL is safe TO as-
sumo however, that he will not be willing TO ac-
cept Lieutenant Garling,On's explanations.
