OF the 9th the Harvard brought him
this dispatch:

The department will send coal Immediately to

Schley's answer was as follows:

Secretary Navy, Washington:

unable absolutely to coal the Texas Marblehead,

Later in the day on which this dis
patch was sent the Texas and the

troversy recently precipitated by the
publication Of book rejecting upon
the conduct Of Rear Admiral Schley in
the movements off Santiago, and par
ticularly of his action in the battle in
which Cervera's squadron was de-
stroyed. The naval court of inquiry
will determine those matters and will
doubtless settle the discussion as to all
points at issue.
It will be recalled that soon after
naval operations were over friends of
the present rear admirals, Sampson and
Schley, urged their respective claims
to promotion with a great deal of
warmth, and that action upon the adj
vancement not only of the parties most
prominent, but OF their brother officers
entitled to promotion for bravery and
excellent service was delayed in conse-
quence. It Is not necessary to more
than allude to the deep feeling which
has since developed, the events are SO
recent and SO well known. Neither
Sampson nor Schley had taken official
cognizance of reports and even charges
against their characters, and nearly
three years elapsed before such action
was taken. When, however, in the
third volume Of MacIay's 1sHistory of
the Navy" passages occurred rejecting
severely upon Rear Admiral Schley's
conduct, he felt impelled to seek vim
dication in the following letter to the
secretary cf the navy:

summants have been sent to me from various parta

Spanish squadron through the channel
In that direction. On the 26th he re
ceiyed a letter from Schley, dated May
25, stating that he was by no means
satisfied the Spanish squadron was not
ct Cienfuegos- A dispatch boat was
cent on the 9th with urgent orders for
schley to proceed at once to Santiago,
but meanwhile cable dispatches were
received from him stating that he had
ascertained the Spanish fleet was not
in that port, and that on account Of
short coal supply he could not blockade
the Spanish ships in Santiago, but
would proceed to Nicolas mole, Haiti
from which point he would commune
cate.
Sampson then cabled Schley from
Key West that the New Orleans would
meet him off Santiago and to make
every effort to ascertain the location
Of Cervera's squadron. Leaving Glen
fuegos May "a, Schley steamed to a
New Ulm review., 1901-09-04

forts, Moro Castle, and, If possible, the
city of Santiago, an interview was ar
ranged between the two commanders
to take place on the Sd Of July.
1t was while Sampson. in the New
York, was Fastening toward Siboney
that Ceryera made his attempt to es-
cape. The New York had reached point
about four miles east Of her block
aiding station and about seven miles
from Morro Castle when the Spanish
squadron was espied steaining out OF
the narrow channel leading from San
tiago's .harbor to the open sea- The
flagship Immediately reversed her
course and steamed in the direction of
the escaping feet, flying the signal to
close in and attack the enemy. This,
however, the ships on blockade had al
ready done.
When the Spanish ships were first
sighted, all the blockading vessels were
in a semicircle In the following order,
reckoning from the eastward: The
Indiana, the Oregon, the Iowa, the
Texas and the Brooklyn, the last
named being farther to the westward
than any Of the other great ships. The
Massachusetts, had gone to Guanta-
namo for coal, the torpedo boat Erics-
son was in company with the flagship
and the Gloucester and Vixen lay close
to land, to the eastward and westward,
respectively, Of the channel.
One Of the most important of the
precepts In the court Of inquiry investi.

blockade was established, and a Gordon
was drawn about the harbor entrance
with cruisers and battleships in semi
circle In front Of 1t and a double line of
smaller vessels and boats inside these,
Thus the harbor of Santiago, in which
Ceryera had been definitely located, was
watched constantly, powerful search
lights being turned upon it at night.
NO effort was relaxed during the weary
month that followed to prevent the es-
cape of the enemy, and Sampson pro-
mulgated in standing orders a plan Of
attack by which our vessels were to
close IN upon any of the Spaniards
coming out.
On June 3 occurred the sinking Of
the Merrimac at the harbor entrance
or Santiago In order to prevent if pos
slDle the escape of Cervera's fleet. On
June the Marblehead and the Yankee
took possession Of the lower BAY Of
Guantanamo as harbor of refuge for
the fleet In coaling, etc, and the ma
rines were the first to land as invaders
on the soil Of Cuba. On the 18th Samp-
son was advised that 80 transports
with troops would be sent from Tampa,
Fla, and a convoy was provided for
them through the Bahama channel.
The Decentralization of troops was COM
nenced on the morning Of the 22d of
June at Baiquiri, to the eastward of
Morro Castle. Sampson had sent his
chief Of staff to communicate with
General Shafter, but as the latter was
frsistent that the navy should more
actively cooperate by shelling the

OF the Brooklyn says In his official re

ship in five minutes from the discovery
The port battery was first engaged a!

close into the land. We then wore
around to starboard, bringing the star
board battery into action. The enemy
hugged the shore to the westward"
This was she since famous "loop,
which DOW plays so conspicuous a par,
IN the controversy, since different mo
ewes for this maneuver are ascribed
ID Schley.
schley explained this maneuver by
stating that he wished to avoid being
rammed by the approaching Maria
Teresa, and also. that he did not wish
to blanket" the fire of his other ships.
A prominent officer, Lieutenant Com
mander Hodgson, who was on the
bridge at the time, is accredited with
having asked Schley when the order
. port the helm was given, sYou mean
starboard? 7" No, mean port Schley
Is said to have replied. 'sBut we will
run down the Texas the officer is al
legged to have demonstrated. LET the
Texas look out for herself is the re-
.1oinder said to have been made by
Schley. In recent interview Lieu
tenant Commander Hodgson is alleged
to have remarked: ITO my personal
knowledge the helm was kept hard
aport during the whole time of turn
ing the loop until eased up to parallel
the course Of the Vizcaya, then about
2.SOO yards away on the starboard
bow. AS the Brooklyn's tactical
diameter Is only about 600 yards, she
therefore could not have run farther
than 600 yards to the southwark"
In his annual report for 1898 the sec
retary Of the navy says: ''Since my
last annual report the navy has for the
first time since Its rehabilitation been
put to the supreme test Of war. Years
Of patient, persistent training and de-
5velopment had brought it to point Of
high efficiency which resulted In the
unparalleled victories at Manila and
Santiago victories which have given
the names Of our naval commanders
worldwide fame and added an addi-
tional page to the glorious naval his
tory Of our country" There was mo
blot on the record" the secretary OBJ
served, and in concluding his report he
said: 'The department. feels, in con-
templating the vast amount Of work
necessary to the successful operations
of the navy during the last year QS9S),
that the country as well as the service
has cause for congratulations in the
results which have followed and which
have been SO generally approved, and
in the further fact that no personal
feeling has arisen to mar the glorious
victories and magnificent work Of the
service
In the concluding clause, unfortu-
nately, the secretary was, to state it
mildly, rather premature in alluding to
the good feeling which was supposed
to prevail among those most promi-
nently engaged in the naval service off
the coast Of Cuba. 1t is not necessary
to so back to the beginning of the con-

Arrest of Boston Brokers ON n
Charge of Fleeing the Public to
an Enormous Extent.
Boston, Oct. 30.-In connection with
what the United States marshal's office
declares to be one of the biggest frauds
they ever had to do with in this city.
members of the firm of j. M. Fisher Il
Co., brokers, were arrested yesterday,
on the charge of using the United
States mails in n scheme to defraud.
1t is alleged that $1,O00OO0 has been
taken from the public since JAM 1, 1900.
TIL. method of the firm is said by the
police to have been very simple. Peo-
pie all over the country, it is said, were
written to and told what splendid
chances they had to invest money, and
large returns could be expected. Pools
were formed and those DESTROYS of get
ting rich quickly were invited to remit.
After two or three weeks, it is said, in
vestors would be advised that a pool
had been formed on some well known
stock, and, that, as the quotations had
gone down, the margins had been
swept in, and that more money was
necessary Immediately in order to save
the stock. After having put in two or
three times the original amount some
investor became suspicious and called
the attention of the authorities to the
matter.
