Principal in the Case.

New York, April THE Suns Wash
ington special says: Commander Den
mis- w. Mullan, commandant of the
Pensacola navy yard, has been under
investigation by a court of inquiry
upon charges of a scandalous nature,
which. if proved. will lead to his dis
missal from the service. Captain
Reamy and Lieutenant Lochheimer
have just returned from Pensacola,
where they spent several days investi-
eating the case and taking testimony.
Upon their report, it will depend
whether Commander Mullan is to be
court martialled.
If he is tried, it is believed that he
can hardly escape severe punishment.
If the court believes the charges can
be substantiated he may be asked to
resign, so as to avoid scandal in open
court Secretary Long will take the
report up for consideration this week.
Commander Mullan some years ago re-
ceived the thanks of the Maryland leg
islature for meritorious service on a
cruise in the Pacific.
