Justice for All.

1t Is respectfully submitted to the Hon.
JOHN d. LoSo and his brothers In ofice
that the excuse put forward for tho failure
to call Rear Admiral ScHLEY before a court
OF inquiry, namely, that the public, being
familiar with the record, nothing can be
added to 1t. is not valid.
The record us to SCHLEr Is before the
public; but the trouble Is that II Is clouded
by inconsistent acts done by the Navy De-
partment 1t is for the Navy Department
to clear away the cloud.
First, because 1t has led to a scandalous
attack upon Mr.. Lone, a member OF tho
Cabinet, for personal malice in the use
Of his authority. for fabrication" OF charges
and for misrepresentation.
Secondly. because 1t serves to keep alive
passionate and abusive, q popular delusion
that ScHLEY, whose part at Santiago was
nothing Of the Commander OF the feet, but
who merely usurped tho function OF Capt.
FRANCIS II. COOK as Captain Of tho
Brooklyn, should wear the laurels due for
winning the battle OF Santiago, instead Of
WILLIAM 7. SAMPSON. an able commander
and an honest man. under whose eyes
and orders the battle was actually fought
and won.
And, thirdly, because tho United States
Navy. OF which great body Mr.. Lone is the
official head and guardian, is entitled to no
led an represented by men without stain.
Mr. LONG may have his own reasons
for desiring to treat with special lenity an
officer who hides the brand OF dlshonor
under the technical plea that his superior
officers. after inviting him to clear himself,
have not brought him to prosecution. But
the Navy demands justice. all the Same,
with an inextinguishable right to have It.
