Admiral Sampson has never been a
strong man. There is no question but
that chagrin over his absence at the bat
tie of Santiago and enlightenment through
his dispute with Admiral Sehley has
marked his entire future life and health.
Both men through the bitterness of the
fight have been deprived of congressional
honors due each. The navy has been
filed with pickering and disputing that
win take years to efface.
Admiral Schley cannot be court-mar-
tailed. but If the finding of the board OF
inquiry is against him he win be officially
under a cloud for the rest of his days. If
the finding should be for him. he viii ne
yindicated. and the greatest censnre fall
upon the NAVY Department. The in
auiry viii probably occupy two months
and lead to a general exposure OF the
alleged inefficient manner in which the
Navy Department cared for the squad
rons sent to sea in May. 1898.
The public is disposed to regard the
entire trouble as the outgrowth of the
Indigestion and chagrin of one naval Off
Ger and the maievolent influences of the
naval cahal of Washington.
