Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, Fight
ing Bob' should, in the opinion of his
friends. regard the letter of ccnsure written
him by Acting Secretary Hackett, for tell
ing the truth in his book about the manner
in which ''Little Billy Chandler treated
him because he would not wink at the
dirty political bargains that Chandler made
while he was Secretary of the Navy, as an
honor rather than disgrace. Admiral
Evans is a Democrat. That was why
Chandler officially mistreated him, and that
was why he found it so easy to get nm
censured by the present administration:

Evans should consider this censure an
honor. 1t was given him for telling what
everyone knows to have been the truth, by
a department which has not had one word
to say of the lying abuse of Rear Admiral
Schley, by one Of its employees. If Mac
lay has its approval, as he appears to
have, any honest man ought to be proud
to have the disapproval of the Navy De-
partment, as at present conducted.
In official reports, just published by the
War Department, Gen. Chaffee has written
some very plain language concerning "a
scheme of settlement for damages done by
Boxers to Chinese Christians connected with
the American Congregational Mission sub
mitted to him by Minister Conger, asking
both a money and land indemnity from the
Chinese Government. 1t may be inferred
from the official expression of its opinion
which fellows that! Gen. Chaffee did not
