SCHLEY SF|RST COMMAND.
INCIDENT IN HIS CAREER AS
LIEUTENANT.
Arrested His Captain, Locked Him Up
in His Cabin and Then Reported to
His Superior Officer.

Winfield Scott Schley is an imperi-
GUS man. lie seems born to lead. The
story of his first command is told as
follows:
after leaving the Niagara he was
promptly promoted to lieutenancy,
and assigned as executive officer one
of the 0O-day gunboat, the Owasco, of
the Gulf squadron. Her commanding
officer his name is of no consequence
and he is dead now-was a devotee
of John Barleycorn, and periodically
had to retire to his cabin for repairs,
where he usually staid "A week. The
Owasco was stationed off Mobile, and
was one of small squadron, of which
Captain James Alden, of the Rich
mond, was senior officer.
Zone day a quartermaster of the
Richmond reported to Captain Alden
that the captains gig of the Owas-
co was approaching, the captains
penant flying. Supposing his visitor
to be the captain of the Owasco, Al
den put on his uniform coat, the side
boys were ordered, and the boat
SWANS mate made ready for his three
pipes at the gangway. When the
Owasco's gig came alongside the man
who sprang up the ladder was Lieu
tenant Schley.
I expected to see Captain----,
of the Owasco,' said Alden with
slight sarcasm.
81 am commander of the Owasco,
sir said Schley.
Where is Captain -"
LOCKED up in his cabin, sir, drunk.
Who locked him in?' asked Al
| den.
4 did | first put him under arrest
and then shut him up in his cabin.
Then | took command of the ship,
and here | am to report for orders
"Alden was fond of joke, and he
was at first disposed to laugh at the
young mans summary action, but he
said:
Well the first order I'll give you
is for you to lower that pennant in
| the gig, go back to your ship, sir, UNI
| lock that cabin door. and restore Cap
! tain -- to duty. Then report to me
in writing if the captains illness still
incapacitates him, and | will know
what to do. Don't be in too great a
hurry to get command of a ship, Mr..

sCHLEY FOR THE PACIFIC.
Will Succeed Admiral Miller When
the Latter Retires.

WASHINGTON, Sept. lit is now
reported that during Admiral Schley's
recent visit to Washington he was as
sured by the Navy Department and
the President that he could have the
command of the Pacific Station if he
wished, and he accepted When Adj
miral Schley assumes control, he will
be fortunate in commanding one of
the best fleets ever formed on the
west coast, which, besides the ships
already there, will include several of
the best vessels now attached to the
home station. 1t is the purpose of the
Navy Department to begin the
strengthening process soon after
peace negotiations have reached
stage at which an early agreement is
assured. Should the present purpose
of the authorities be carried out, Ad-
miral Schley will have an Independent
command not later than the middle
November. In charge now of the sta
ton is Admiral Miller, whose enforc-
ed retirement by the operation of the
age law makes vacancy within two
months, which will call for an officer
of high rank to fill.
