Judging from the conversation of Sir
Thomas and the members of his party
ii is not likely that Shamrock ii will
engage the Independence. Sir Thomas
feels that his challenge applies only t.
the defender selected by the New York
Yacht club. and that it would not be
well for him to sail other matches.

Sir Thomas, when asked if he were sat

cially put ms to his availability in case
the department should require his SER
vices, Rear Admiral llowison replied:
81 know of no reason why should
not he available for such duty should
the department so decide. have
mad. no public utterance relating to the
subject. and have seen none OF the
official reports and papers bearing upon
the questions to be decided by the

Your counsel. Captain Parker, before
the appointment had been announced,
mentioned to the acting secretary the
names of certain rear adnirals. any one
of whom. he said. would be perfectly
satisfactory to Rear Admiral Srllry.
one of the names 50 mentioned Was
that of Rear Admiral Ilowison. 1t
may bc added that of four officers con
suited by the department. the names of
three were upon the list thus mentioned
10y your counsel.
MS Illlltll HIS Dttl - oiu'i
to remind you Of the fact that fair
minded officer of excellent reputation
and of unblcmishrd character had been
found in the person of Rear Admiral
lIowiSOn, who, at the date OF his np-
roinlmcnt. appears to have enjoyed
the confidence of both the department
and yourself.
Your request is based upon n news
paper clipping, that purports to con-
tain statements in regard TO the truth
of which you do not yourself express an
opinion.
You ask the department to lay be-
fore Rear Admiral lIowiSon Il statement
to have been made by some person UNI
known. ut time and place likewise un-
known.
The department is unable to view
your request in any other light than
that of a preliminary challenge Of the
fitness of Rear Admiral llowiSon to
serve as a member of the court. 1t
will he treated as is usual in courts of
inquiry.
The established practice in the mill
tary as well as in the naval service has
fixed the method in which the right of
challenge before court martn!S and
courts of inquiry shall be exercised.
The department, having constituted
the court, should not at this stage
of the proceedings undertake to hear
and determine questions that may arise
respecting the competency of It's mcm-
hers. Such II proceeding would be ir-
regular. all questions of this nature be-
iny left to the determination Of the
court itself.
This correspondence will he trans
mitted to the president of the court for
