A Severe Rebuke for Vice Admiral Heary
Fairfax

Fairfax.
A sensation has been caused in English naval
circles by the non-concurrence Of the lords Of
the admiralty in the acquittal of Vice Admiral
Fairfax and Of Commander David p. Dickson
and Capt A. p. Hastings of the ironclad battle
ship Howe, which stranded November 2 in
Ferroi harbor, Spain.
Commander Dickson and Capt. Hastings we're
acquitted by the court-martial on the ground
that the charts Of Ferrol harbor used on the
Howe were defective. II was charged against
Vice Admiral Fairfax that, commander Of
the squadron, it was his duty to signal the
Howe; that he failed TO do so. and that. there
fore. the strsnding due to his negligence.
The court martial was said at the time 20 be q
mere formality and the vice admiral was &C.
quilted. The lords Of the Admiralty, however.
attribute the di-aster to unskillful manaSemeut
on the part of Vice Admiral Fairfax Com mander
Dickson and Capt Hastings. This IL regarded
ss . severe rebuke for Vice Admiral Fairfax.
