The greatest socitude is felt by ell the employees
Of The Brooklyn Navy Yard over the fate OF their

g. them yesterday:
no matter whether Captain sgsbee and his ex-
ecauyo officer. Lieutenant Commander Richard
Wainwright. are exonerated from blame or not
t. Will always be more or less % blight upon
their ofhcal careers that they had charge OF tie
Maine when she was blown Up They will here

ton OF their advancement IS considered a spectre
O. the unfortunate past w!n rise 10 remind their
euper!ors Of the fact that they had command OF
q warship when y was practically destroyed. We
all know Sissbee and Wainwright here at the yard
ind We know thai there are no better men In the
service. They alert, slnewy. capable men, con
etanty the lookout I'm The discharge Of their
duties. and IL is not at all likely lhst they were
tn the least TO blame for what happened 10 the
Maine They were IN har60r owned by nation
more or less unfriendly 10 this country They were
entirely conscious Of the fact that theirs was no
