LIEUT.. COM. ADAMS CASE.
1t Was Charles A., Not James D., VIII,
Was Tried.

1t Was Charles A., Not James D., Who
Was Tried.
It was Lieutenant Commander Charles A.
Adams who was recently tried by court
martial at Mare Island, Cal. on charges of
drunkenness on duty. and not Lieutenant
Commander James d. Adams as was ar
ropeously stated. The latter officer is now
on duty in the photographic office, Navy
Department, and has never been attached
to the coast defens, ship Monterey, as was
stated In the paragraph relating to the
court-martfal incident. He naturally OBJ
lects to having his name mentioned in con-
nection with the trial in which he was in
nc way connected or concerned, regardless
OF the additional statement that the officer
was acquitted by the court.
The error arose from the similarity Of
names and rank Of the two officers and
their juxtaposition In the navy register.
James ID. Adams is No. III in the list OF
Lieutenant commanders and Charles A.
Adams, the officer who was tried, stands
No. $50 in the same grade. No one in the
naval service was misled by the newspaper
statement for there 1t was well known that
the Adams meant was the one attached to
the Monterey. This correction Is made as
a matter of simple justice to Lieutenant
Commander James d. Adams.
