soHLEYs CONDUCT.
Alleged Reason Why Sampson Superseded
Him In Command at Santiago.

Washington, Oct. 14-Sensational
revelations concerning Rear Admiral
Schley's conduct in the preliminary op-
erations against Admiral Cervera' s
feet are contained, 1t is said, in the
appendices to the report of Capt. A. S.
Crowningshield. chief Of the bureau Of
navigation, which will soon be made
public. In anticipation of action being
taken on the resolution offered by Rep
resentative Berry of Kentucky, giving
the thanks Of congress to Rear Admit
raj Schley in recognition of the part
he played in the destruction of Cerve-
ra fleet, the navy department collect
ed all the dispatches and messages he
sent to the department, to bring them
to the attention of congress, and to
prevent the passage of the resolution.
The correspondence was not submitted
when 1t became evident that congress
would adjourn without action on the
measures.
Commodore Schley arrived off Glen
fuegos on May 81 He notified the de-
partment that the Spanish fleet was
cooped up inside the harbor, and made
arrangements for finally determining
the presence of Admiral Ceryera' 3
squadron The department learned
that Cervera's fleet was not at Glen
fuegos, but at Santiago. This informa-
ton was communicated to Commodore
Schley on May 49, It is admitted at
the navy department that the dis
patches sent to Commodore SchIey
were not of nm absolute character. but
ne took no immediate action upon them.
for according to q report made nv
Lieut.. w II. II. Switzerland when his
vessel. the Eagle, arrived with the
Marblehead and the Vixen, on Nav "a
the flying squadron was still blockad-
ing Cienfuegos.
That afternoon" Lieut.. Switzerland
states, the Eagle accompanied the
Marblehead to the Cuban camp west of
Cienfuegos, previously visited by this
vessel Arms and supplies were land
ed for the Cuban force, and necessary
information obtained, after which
Commander McCalla designated the
Eagle to return to the flying squadron
at full speed and inform the commo-
dore commanding that Ceryera's fleet
was not in the harbor of Cienfuegos,
and that certain small vessels were
the only ones in that port, which In
formation was delivered without delay.
That evening the flying squadron. ac-
companied by the Marblehead, collier
Merrimac, Eagle and Vixen, left the
vicinity Of Cienfuegos, the commodore
commanding signalling that the squad
ron's destination was Santiago de Gu
ba Admiral Ceryera's squadron had
thus been five days in the harbor of
Santiago before the flying squadron
sailed from cienfuegos.
When the flying squadron arrived rs
miles to the southwark of Santiago, on
May 26, he was still in that port The
following day, early in the morning,
Admiral Cervera was sighted by the
American squadron. Rear Admiral
Schley sent cablegram to the depart
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1898-10-15

ment, notifying 1t that the machinery
of the collier Merrimac was out of or
der; that 1t was impossible to coal his
ship at that point, because it was too
rough, and that he proposed to proceed
to Key West for coal. This cablegram
was a bombshell when 1t reached the
navy department There was hurried
consultation, and dispatch was sent
to Capt. G, S. Cotton, commanding the
Harvard, who was at Mole St. Nicholas,
Hayti, directing him to proceed with all
dispatch after Commodore Schley to in
struct him to return to the mouth of
the harbor, and not leave that place
under any consideration. The Harvard
found the flying squadron more than
20 miles to the westward from Santiago
where the Merrimac was broken down
and repairs were being made to her
machinery preparatory to continuing
the voyage to Key West. The squadron
Immediately went back to the harbor
where it remained until Joined by Rear
Admiral Sampson on June l.
Friends Of Rear Admiral Schley,
while admitting that he intended to re-
turn to Key West, contend that his ac-
ton was based upon sound judgment.
1t is recalled that the departure of the
Americans from the mouth Of Santiago
harbor gave rise to the belief In Ad-
-
drawal was merely a ruse to attract
him from the harbor, especially as the
scout ship lying off the harbor remained
there Commodore Scheley's action was
considered so serious that some officials
advocated his detachment from his
command The matter was settled by
the orders sent to Rear Admiral Samp
son, directing him to proceed at once to
Santiago.
Rear Admiral Schley has never made
any report to the navy department de-
Tending himself against the implied
charges of dilatoriness and neglect, and
none of his friends in Washington is
sufficiently acquainted with his side of
the case to give it in detail. At the navy
department it is stated that Rear Adj
miral Schley was given every chance to
get all of the glory Of destroying Ad-
miral Cervera's fleet. Officials say that
If Schley had not sent the dispatch an
nouncing that he proposed to proceed
to Key West for coal, he would not
have been superseded by Rear Admiral
Sampson.

REWARD FOR HOBSON.
President Will Send a Special Mes
SAGE to Congress.

Washington, June S.-The president
has directed Admiral Sampson to pre-
pare and forward at once a detailed re-
port of the gallant action of Lieutenant
Richmond Pearson Hobson at Santiago,
and as soon as it is received, will SEED
a special message to congress, recog-
nizing the heroism displayed. not only
by Hopson himself, but by the men
who accompanied him on the Merrimac.
The order for a full report is already
on the way, the president feeling it
hest to await official advices before
taking the action he now contemplates.
What viii be recommended for Hob
son ard his crew is not certain now,
but there probably will be a recon-
mendatiOn for a vote of thanks, specifi-
cally naming HobsOn, though probably
not naming the men. Medals of honor.
it is expected by those who have talked
with the president on the subject, will
be struck off for the little hand of rsen,
and promotion of some sort is in store
for all Of them. 1t will take some days
for Admiral Sampson to get mis- report
here, but probably some time next week
a message Signalling the Merrimac in
cident will be sent to congress.

The Plural of Honey

In a school at Five Points last week
the subject on which the pupils of a
certain grade were being drilled, was
the formation of the plural. Various
test words were given, and finally the
teacher said:
who can tell me how to form the
plural of honey?'>
There was stiffness for a few sec
onds, and finally a bright young fellow
held UP his hand and, on being given
permission TO speak, said:
You can't have more than one
honey
The lesson was interrupted for a
space. Hearty laughter and the forma-
ton of that particular plural was not
explained until later.
It was given out by one narrator that
the pupils settled among themselves
that the plural of honey is '"lasses,
but this report, as the dispatches say,
could not be confirmed.
