SCANDAL AT LEAGUE ISLAND.
Two Officers May BE Court-Mnrtinied
for Culrnbie Negligence.

1t is understood that Naval Constructor
John F. Hanscom and Chief Engineer
Lewis NJ Robinson are 10 Oe court-mar
tailed as q result of an investigate
conducted by Lieut. ]. j. Knapp, at the
direction of the Navy Department.
A bad state OF affairs was found TO ex-
ist at the yard in relation to the en-
ployment of labor and in the manage
ment and pay of the clerical force there.
These officers being responsible for the
supervision of their departments, are
held accountable by the naval authorities
for the proper performance of the duties
of all subordinates.
The investigation is said to have de-
veloped culpable negligence on the part
of superior and subordinate officers There
is reason to anticipate trouble for some
civilians, as well. One is known to have
been so deeply involved as to necessitate
ties for action.
A scandalous condition of affairs is be-
lieved to have been found by Lieut.
Knapp. whose experience in making navy
yard Investigations has won for him the
title of the navy's sleuth." While it is
believed that neither of the naval officers
is crminally involved, it is said they are
accused of lack of diligence and attention
to duty t. a seriou5 extent. The speciiica-
tions and charges are said to be in course
| of preparation now in the judge advocate

ready for PRONUNCIATION on the return of

prisonment and to Pay Fine.
1t is stated in official circles that the
President will take final action in the
court-martial case of Capt. Oberlin NJ.
Carter, United States Engineer Corps.
soon after Mr.. Mckinley returns from
Philadelphia. Whether there will be a
mitigation of the sentence imposed by the
court is not known outside of those hav-
ing the confidence of the President in the
matter, but the opinion is general among
the officials who are interested in the
case that Capt. Carter will be obliged to
serve term of Imprisonment.
Many statements have been made pur-
porting to contain the verdict and sem
tence of the court. and none of these has
been correct The court found Capt. Car
ter guilty of embeZzlement and the con-
tingent violation of military regulations,
and sentenced him to dismissal from the
army with ignominy. to Imprisonment for
five years. and to pay heavy money fine.
Powerful influence has been brought by
the convicted officer to secure a mitiga-
tion of the sentence, but 1t Is certain that
he will not escape punishment.
President Mckinley has final jurisdic-
ton in the case, with the right to APP
prove, disapprove or mitigate the court s
sentence.

OFFICIALS ARE AMUSED.
How spnin's Protest Is Regarded at

The officials of the Navy Department
are amused at the protest made by Spain
through the French embassy here against
sending the batt1eships Iowa and Oregon
to Manila, claiming that such action on
the part of this Government is violation
of the protocol
Lieut.. whittIesy. of the navigation bu-
reau. stated that there is no cause for a
Spanish protest as the Iowa and Oregon
have not been ordered to the Philippines
They are under orders he said, to
sail for Honolulu. which is now an Amer
lean city, and are on their way there. The
Spanish government, therefore. has no
more right TO protest than II we had or
dered the battleships to Key West or New
Orleans"
Another naval official stated that the
Iowa and Oregon would rendezvous at
Honolulu until further orders. In the
event of future complications they would
be more qutcllly.-available there than at
any other porte
Honolulu is now an American naval
staticn," he added "and we are going 10
