Instructions from the secretary Of the
navy.
After a series of questions on immaterial
points Captain Lemly read number OF
articles OF the regulations. in each case
asking the witness If he had complied with
the terms OF the paragraph.
The nrSt paragraph was No. 2bt. ana re-
quires the commander-in-chief when ne Is
preparing his fleet or squadron to meet the
enemy TO communicate his general oraSi :,
instructions, private signals and such other
information as Will enable each So lar as
possible TO understand his duty when IN
action and at all other times .
Il think L complied with that replied
the witness.
How. and in what manner" asked Capt.
Lemly.
by issuing general orders for the or
ganization of the squadron. their instruc-
tions and their private signals.
The next article was as follows:
Article 26y-He shall, II possible. before
going into action. communicate to the
juniors in command. his chief of stan and
the captains his secret orders. private
signals and other information that will ma
terally assist them if called upon 10 eNer-
else command.
THAT l do not remember To have COM
piled with" sai6 the witness.
PLAN OF BATTLE.
Captain Lemly then read Article 27I.
which provides that the commander-in-
chief shall IL possible. before going into
action. supply every captain with a plan
ol bdltlt- SnoNlNS tititoh Nht pvSibOii
each shall occupy.
Yes" replied the witness, in reply 20
Captain Lemlys question il he had COM
piled with that article. Il do not under
stand that il necessarily written. 1 think
that that order is sufficiently carried out
when commandments decides 10
place his crews in the order of battle and
inform each what he proposes 10 do.
DO you think. admiral. that you can
supply every captain with plan OF battle,
and DO that at an oral conference asked
Captain Lemly-
Il do not think that is absolutely necos-
sary," replied the witness. There are in
stances where battles have been fought
without doing that. Any plan OF battle
that might be originated is subject TO a
change. / have never known battle that
ever fought the plan originally
chosen.
Continuing his examination, Captain
Lemly asked: When at 9:45 a. m. May 2O
YOU sighted a man-O-war. as shown by the
BrOOklyns log and cleared for action.
what orders had been issued in conformity
with the provisions of the regulations"
II should not think any instructions
would h" necessary for a fleet meeting a
single vessel except to smash her up"
At this point Mr.. Rayner. addressing him.
self to Captain Lemly said that he did not
want to object to this line of question. but
that there was no specification which called
for il. The matter was discussed by coun-
