LONG REBUKES CHADWICK.
Scathing and Public Reprimnnd for
the Inexcusabi. Indiscretion of
His Attack on Schley.

WASHINGTON. May 2.-Secretary Long
today made public the correspondence
which has taken place between the navy
department and Capt. Chadwick respect
ing the published interview in which the
captain is reported as severely rejecting
upon Rear Admiral Schley. The secre-
tary's letter was written today and was
forwarded only after the secretary had
conference with the president on the sub
ject. The departments action In the case
is severe reprimand. and ii is note
worthy that its letter has been made pub
lie. a fact which in itself adds to the
weight of the punishment administered.
Secretary Long in his letter SAYS:
''The department regrets that Il has oc-
casion TO reprimand an officer OF your
rank and experience for inexcusable in
discretion and offcnse against the navy
regulations.
"It appears from your letter that in
your interview with Mr.. Atkins. whom
you knew TO he a newspaper correspond
eni. you spoke Of fellow officer. your
senior In rank. in a way calculated to
bring him into contempt, You knew this
to be a violation of the naval regulations
which forbid the Communication by In
tervtewS OF such comment and criticism.
You knew II 70 be against the good order
and discipline OF me service HtCAANc IL tS
the example of one officer In high rank
rejecting upon the honor and character OF
another--an example which. unreSuked
and followed. tends to bring the whole
service into contention and scandal. You
knew that the professional business of
your interviewer Is 70 collect material fos
publication.
While he may not have had jastiAcAtioh

be a private conversation. y0g knew the
risk you ran, and within year had been
reprimanaed for similar mEcondust IN put
ting yourself and the welfare Of the service
70 the same risk with the same result. You
have thus again and further impaired the
confidence OF the department in YOUR ais
cretion. II is true that your case differs
from some recent cases Of cffense on the
part OF other officers IN that objectloa1ble
remarks made by them we're made under
circumstances which they knew assured
their publicity. In your scsse the depart
rnent uareservedly accepts your statement
that your remarks were In no sense and
in no part intended for publication nor
considered as an interview.

other action than THE emphatic rep.imand
