Sth|e]'s Son Talks.
Defends His Fathers Name.

Capt. Thomas F. Schley, son of Rear
Admiral Schley, has been interviewed by
the news papers in Utah where he is stat.
ioned as an officer in the military service.
Capt. Schley in part said:
"The accusations that are made are rid.
iculous when they are investigated. Take,
for example, the charge Of disobedience Of
orders in May, 1898. An attempt has been
made to saddle the responsibility on my
father. The fact is that he has letter from
Admiral Sampson telling him to do exactly
what he did, and this letter will be produc-
ed at the inquiry. At that time he was
maintaining the blockade off Oienfuegos.
Secretary Long wired Admiral Sampson,
strongly advising that the blockading feet
go to Santiago, in the hope of finding the
spanish feet there. Admiral Sampson sent
he despatch to Admired Schley with note
IN which he said
WAfter duly considering this telegram
| have decided to make no change in the
present plans; that is, that you should hold
your squadron of Cienfuegos.'
tsThis letter was suppressed.D
Regarding the manoeuvres of the Brook.
lyn at the>t of the battle, Capt. Schley
says that the facts all 60 to show that this
was the best move under the circumstances.
He thinks that the part played by the Brook.
lyn in the battle certainly compared favor
ably with that of the New York.
"lf this inquiry is full and fair" he said,
essome facts will be disclosed that will star
tie the public. My father has several strong
cards up his sleeve; and trust he will make
use of them all.0
Capt. Schley enlisted in the army in 1884
and Was appointed second lieutenant in
the Twenty-third Infantry seven ears later.
He has served soith his regiment all through
its campaigns in the Philippines, where he
earned his captaincy. Since his return
FROM the Philippines he has been at Fort
Douglas.

Editorial Comment.

The coming International yacht races in
the United States ale looked forward to
with even more interest and enthusiasm
than these contests have heretofore ell cited
The interest is all the more intense, albeit
the enthusiasm is somewhat more cons
tained, for the reason that the peculiar
conditions and circumstances surrounding
the present contest appear to MAKE the
result more doubtful than it has ever seem.
ed to be in former races for the cup. The
American yachtsmen had always SO easily
prevented the British yachtsmen from re.
capturing the celebrated trophy that Amer
lean confidence in the result Of each sue
ceedipg contest was unbounded, and the
people Of the States almost came to look
upon the races largely as mere matters OF
form, with the decisions at no time in
doubt.
This year however the situation is differ.
ent. The vessel which was built especial
ly tor the purpose of defending the cup
the Constitution has disappointed its friends
and its designer and has been easily beat
en- by the old cup defender the Colam-
ba. This latter boat will probably again
race with Sir Thomas Lipton's challenger
although it will not. be with the same boat.
Sir Thomas claims that his new boat is
far superior to the old one, but it remains
to be seen whether the Columbia, the flo
est product of the designing skill of the
great blind Herreshof, will not again
prove herself superior to anv British built
yacht, and the cup he still saved to Amer
lea.
In any event may the best boat win.
The game of base ball the national sport
of the United States, seems to have secur-
sd a firm hold in San Juan. The forma
tion Of regular league Of clubs with re
gular grounds is distinct move forwari
and will doubtless greatly increase the al
ready well established popularity of the
game here.
The work on the new grounds is pro.
crossing rapidly and it is reported that
they will be N excellent condition for the
opening games tomorrow.
Keep up the good fight for Porto Ricap
coffee. Let such strong public sentiment t
be aroused that importers will not dare to
bring the Brazilian product here whether
the duty on our coffee is restored or pot.
