Washington, Dee. 2I.-Seeretary Long
has disposed finally of the Schley case, so
far as the navy department is concern

He approves of the findings of fact
and opinion of the full court and he aP-
proves of the majority of the opinion
where there Is a difference in the court,
He holds the court could not have en-
tered into the consideration of the ques-
tiOn of command at the battle of San
tiagO. rlnally heaecepts the recommenda-
tion that no further proceedings shall
be had.
The secretary also declined the appli-
cation of SIMPSONS counsel to enter an
inquiry into the question of command
and has notified Schley's counsel of that
fact as the reason for declining to hear
them on that point.

municated at once to Admiral Dewey,
