ASKS 10 BE RESTORED.
Captain Higginson Adopts Different
Course From the one Suggested

WASHINGTON. June 25.-Captain Hig-
ginson. late Of the cruiser Atlanta, has
failed TO adopt either Of the suggestions
made 10 him by Secretary Herbert as
a means for the settlement Of his case,
but instead he has taken course Of his
own that may bring the matter 20 a
speedy issue. The Captain was relieved
Of the command Of the Atlanta for two
reasons-first, because he had been tardy
in obeying orders TO sail, and second,
because ne had communicated on the
subject with a bureau officer In re-
sponse TO his verbal explanation last
week Secretary Herbert suggested that
ne make a written statement Of his case,
or else ask for a court Of inquiry. The
Captain. however, has done neither Of
these things, but has made a formal ap-
plication TO be restored 10 the command
Of his ship. This action puts a new
phase on the case. as it places the Secre-
tary under the necessity Of taking action,
looking 10 an official inquiry, If one should
be deemed necessary.
