THE sCHLEY INVESTIGATION.

THE SCHLEY INVESTIGATION.
The request made by Rear Admiral
schley regarding the matter of the al.
legged interview given by Rear Admiral
Howison to q reporter of the Boston
Record has been denied by the Navy
Department. Rear Admiral Howison
will not be asked by the department as
to whether or not be made the state
ment attributed tv him saying that
Sehley is bot respected as Sampson is,
and that the glory OF the battle OF San
tisgo belongs to Sampson.
Whether or Do', In view of the al.
legged statement, Admiral Howison is
to remain q member OF the naval tri-
bunal which is to hear and determine
Admiral Scbley's case is. as presaged 10
the Gezette's Washington correspon-
dence yesterday, to be LETT to the de.
termination OF the court Itself, OF which
he Is constituted member.
Acting Secretary Hackett yesterday
made public the correspondence In the
matter, including his own reply to the
request OF Admiral Schley, in which he
declines to forward q copy OF the alleg-
ed interview TO Admiral Howison for
his COZ firmation or denial. Instead, he
states 10 his letter to Admiral Schley
that he has sent the correspondence up
on the SUBJECT to Admiral Dewey as
president of the court of inquiry.
Admiral Sobley, in his letter to Act
Jog Secretary Hacket., did not request
the removal of Admiral Howison from
the court, but merely called the report.
ed statements to the attention OF the
department and asked that the matter
be referred to Admiral Howison, and
requested that copy Of the latter's an
swer be sent him.
Notwitt sr ding the fact that Ad-
miral Schley expresses high regard for
Admiral HowisoD, the department 10
acting upon the matter oopstrues bis
request ss q challenge against Admiral
Howison sitting upon the court. Taking
this view OF the case, DIR. Hsckett has
argued, as he did 10 the matter OF the
list Of witnesses, that the court had been
constituted and accepted by Admiral
Schley, and that the matter had passed
out OF the hands OF the department,
strictly speaking, and is now In the
hands of the court itself.
The body which is to determine
whether or not Admiral Sohley was
guilty OF "reprehensible conduct" and
the other charges made against him. is
also TO decide as to the qualification Of
Its members, who are to pass judgment.

an address full Of encouragement for
the cause and urging the people to In
dustrial activity. A fine object lesson
road was produced here just outside
the city limits, and a permanent or
ganizatlon formed for the purpose OF
carrying on the work in connection
with the national association.
The train went from Louisville to
Hopkinsville and repeated there sub
stantlally the same work that had
been done in the other places. Owens
borO, KY, was reached July IA, and
a most enthusiastic convention was
held on the fair grounds in that city.
From here we crossed the Ohio River
into Southern Illinois, and made a
final stand at Bffingham. 1t was ex-
pected that the train would move
from here to Mattoon, but owing TO
a disastrous fire in that city, the en-
gagement was cancelled, and the
great tour of the good roads train
was closed.

HOW A STEAMSHIP WENT DOWN
Graphic Description of the Plunge of tho
Klncora.

Graphic Description of the Plunge of tho
Klncora.
This account of the recent collision
between the steamships Oceanic and
Kincora was written by a passenger
on the Oceanic:
81 was reading in my bunk last
night and the foghorn began to blow
and at about 1890 1 felt a shock, as
IL a great wave had struck our vessel
and we had gone through it. Some
thing fell on the deck Il am three
decks DOWN. and after time | be-
came conscious of an excitement up
above. Up l went. Then l saw our
vessel had struck another steamer
about one-third from its stern, and the
two were lying apparently fixed, with
the steamers bows pointing at an an
Gle with our vessel toward our stern.
1t was a very misty night, and above
the junction OF the two ships there
was a light which radiated through
the mist without giving much illumin-
alton.
"By degrees I became aware that
the steamer was lying with its nose
up and it's stem above the water. The
bows rose higher and higher, the
masts were seen at an increasingly
extraordinary angle with the deck of
our steamer. The masthead light of
the steamer came down and down,
when a contrary motion seized the
steamer, and she slipped down, stern
foremost, with appalling speed, and,
when half immersed, and apparently
upright, fell over on her deck and
disappeared without a sound.
"It was as if she covered her face
and fell forward on the death that
threatened her-but the speed with
which she went down, and her last
motion before disappearing, were very
striking. The contrast between our
lighted decks (for before the end every
light had been turned on) and her hull,
dark and black except where her
masthead light hickered, and where
some light came out Of the engine
room, made a great picture.
"Our boats were out at once, but
no one came up after the steamer
went down. 1 was on deck at 1.1O
and by LII the tragedy was finished"
