The Schley Court.

The evidence given in the Schley

entitled to ali the honors so freely and
unreservedly bestowed upon him by

purposely hampered by the Naval and
War Departments, and those in au-

about the same reason that Secretary
Stanton gave for not sending rein force.
ments to Gen. Mcclellan, during the
peninsular campaign in the civil war,
fear that the war might be closed too
soon and under the wrong commander.
Capt. Wise, of the scouting ship
Yale, admits that he did not keep Ad.
miral Schley informed, as he was Or
dered to do, and that he withheld from
Schley knowledge of the fact impaired
to him by Admiral Sampson, that
Cervcra's feet was in Santiago harbor,
and that the harbor was strongly for
titled. He was likewise kept in ignor-
ance Of the signals arranged with the
insurgents at Cienfueges. 1t has been
shown likewise that Schley's dis
patches have been garbled, and some
omitted entirely from the Naval APP
pendix.
1t should be borne in mind that, so
far, only the department clique, who
acknowledge Sampson as their leader
socially, have been on the witness
stand, and the friends OF Schley who
will give full and unreserved testi-
mony, have not yet been called. 1t is
safe to predict that the gallant hero of
Santiago will come out of the fray
with as conspicuous success as he did
in his fight with that other enemy
Cervera and his fleet.
