ADMIRAL STATIONS BLuNDER.
The First Instance OF the Kind on Record
In Oar Navy.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2&.-It is understood that
the Unitod States Government has taken other
means besides the detachment OF Acting Rear
Admiral Stanton to show the Government OF
Brazil that this country rerudlates Admiral
Stanton's action in recoRnzance OF the insur-
gents. What form these assurances have
taken tho State Department will not make
public. but II the regular course OF procedure
in Diplomatic incidents OF the sort be followed.
Mr.. Thorn pson. the United States Minister to
Brazil. will make the amende honorable on
the part OF the United States. in addition to
the apologize explanation which has been
given setior Mendonca. the Brazilian Minister
hero.
Secretary Herbert declines to give any fur
Their details to the public beyond those con-
tanned In tho memorandum furnished yester-
day Ho was asked this morning IL he would
say whether Admiral Stanton had been or
dored back to the United States. and he an
swered that such action was implied by the
fact that the Admiral had been detached from
the command OF the South Atlantic Station.
As to whether Admiral Stanton had cabled the
department requesting court Of inquiry or n
court martial to pass judgment on his action,
the Secretary enid he could say nothing about
that phase OF the case. ,
A careful search made by officials OF the
State and Navy Departments falls to disclose
a single instance where an insurgent Govern
ment has been recognized By q formal salute
who ordered It. Solicitor Dabney OF the
state Department explains international Gus
tom to be that a salut o from q vessel OF on o
nation to armed vessels claiming to represent
another Government. implies formal declara-
tiop that the lrst-named Government recoR-
niZed that of the other.
ADMIRAL Stantons blunder was made still
more nexrlicable this afternoon by perusal
OF tho roster on the Newark, his flagship.
which showed that at least two men Of stand
ing on board are we'll acquainted with interDa-
tiopel law and presumably knew that the sn-
lutte to the rebel fleet was an affront to the reg

has some ey PLANTATION to offer for his action.
The general impression at the Navy Depart

by prominent officer. who said: If an in

SUNK BY ATRAIT0R'S ORDERS
NEW LIGUT ON THE Loss OF THE
GUNBOAT ALEXANDRA PETION.

Tho Haytian Secretary OF tho Navy Bnu-
ished for Secretly Ordering tho Vessel
scuttied and Causing Her Loss with All
On Board, Save One-A Decp-inid Plot.
Recent DISPATCHES from Hayti throw a new
light on tho sinking OF the gunboat Alexandra
Potion, which was said to have gone down in
o hurricane near Cape Tiburon about month
ago. 1t appears now that when the war ship
sank the SEQ was perfectly calm. and that IN
stead OF being overcome by the storm the
vessel was sent to the bottom by paid agents
of Gen. Manigat. the leader OF the revolution
AIRY party which for years has been plotting
for the overthrow OF President Hlppoyte.
The Alexandra Potion was one OF two modern
gunboats purchased by the Haytian Govern
ment In France and delivered by the builders
to the black republic last June. The en-
gineers and mechanics were Frenchmen, and
were under contract to serve in the Haytian
navy for two years. or until they could train train.
and the officer were negroes.
Tho gunboat sailed away from Port-au-
Prince In fair weather. bearing commission
tho two negro repu biics,, When the ship came
western end Of the island. natives on shore.
who were proudly watching their newest war
ship sgddeny The pfop mt the
negro sailor Is said to have escaped, and yet
the ship foundered less than three miles from
the shore.
AS soon as the real cause Of the disaster be;;
came known TO the President he banished
Gen. Jean GILES. the Secretary OF the Navy.
and MIR. st. Martin Dupuy. Minister OF Police.
Gen. Jean GILES. It is said has been secretly
affiliated with the revolutionary party for over
two years. and ever since the purchase OF the
gunboats he has been plotting to rid Gen.
Manigat Of these dangerous naval opponents.
Before, the Potion sailed from Port Prince
on this last occasion the Secretary OF the Navy.
i is charged. found a pretext to order al the
French engineers ashore. and during their
absence he sent an agent on board. who
opened certain valves in the hold OF the ship.
These valves were partly stopped up
again. but in such way that tho pressure Of
the water would force an entrance within a few
hours In this way the ship suddenly filled
with water before the pumps could be brought
into use.
Gen. Gilles's treason would have remained a
secret II this one sailor had not escaped to
tell the President what had happened. The
Secretary Of the Navy was then banished for
being a traitor. and the Minister of Police wae
dismissed in disgrace for not knowing that
there was traitor in the Presidents cabinet.
