ADMIRAL sTAy1oN's EXPLANATION.
A Despatch In Which IIo Fores badows His
Defence for His Action.

A Despatch In Which He Foreshadows His
Defence for His Action.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S-Admiral Stanton's ex-
PLANTATION as to why he saluted Admiral Mello.
sent in answer to a message Of inquiry. was
made public to-day by Secretary Herbert 1t
reads as follows:
S,crrarv ofhe Nary Wd,hino,sr:
Before anchoring saluted flag OF Brazil twenty. one
gunA Salute was returned by Government fort. After
anchoring received visit from aide camp OF Admiral
Meio flying Brazilian flag. Returned said visit. sa-
luted Brazilian Admiral aoat. Salute returned by
same. No call received from any Brazilian official
from the shore. Next day called upon Brazilian Adj
miral. Visit returned. Nso only Brazilian Admiral
ahoat. STANTON
Secretary Herbert gave out Admiral Stan
toms despatch for publication because OF an
impression that the President acted hastily in
removing the Admiral without hearing an ex-
PLANTATION from him. A telegram Of inquiry
was sent to ADMIRAL Stanton when the fact
at the Navy DEPARTMENT and the message
quoted was in answer to that Admiral stan
spatch. where. he says he saluted the Brazilian
flag .atioat," and this statement comedies
GERS that i Il Was in doing this that he Brought
omuch trouble On himself
Inquiry at the Navy Departre emit has brought
presidents for Admiral Stanton's action. and
the theory of officers who believe the Admiraps
unfortunate salute was justified by circum.
stances. is given in this way: A, commander Of
o naval vessel must either acknowledge the
flag fioated by another armed vessel Of differ.
her; as a pirate II Admiral Mello had no
authority from any recognized Government
land the insurgents have no government) to
display the flag that was firing at the
story. he was an unauthorized armed rover
treated as pirate. If he had had the right to
float the BRAZILIAN flag. then he should have
been saluted, and 1t IL further cortended in
Admiral STATIONS behalf that, in view Of the
fact that Admiral Melo holds commission as
an officer OF the Brazilian navy. tho American
commander could not have done otherwise
than to pay him the customary courtesies.
One OF the presidents referred to is the ac-
tion OF Admiral Welles OF the Unites States
navy at Cadiz. Spain, in capturing n Spanish
war vessel manned by insurgents and floating
the Spanish flag. and turning her over to the
Spanish Government on the ground that she
was q piratical craft; The same thing was
done at Carthagena by q British squadron.
Another precedent cited. II it can be called
such. is the action Of Capt. Wiltse OF the United
States cruiser Boston. In landing troops and
recognizing the revolutionists, the present
authority from the President.
