SAMPSON VS, SCHLEY.
LETTER FROM SECRETARY LONG
 REvIVEs CONTROVERSY
Some Side Lights Thrown on Samp- sons Management of the Navy
 During the Spanish War.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Secretary

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Seeretary Long has created good deal of com ment by the ridiculous, faultfinding letter written by him to Senator Mor- gan and given to the press by some of his over jealous subordinates in the Department, who wanted to get a fresh whack at Rear Admiral Sehley The net result of the letter will, of course, be only to further impress up- on the public the fact that the admin istration of the Navy Department is "doty" so far as Sampson and Schley are concerned, and that no mistake was made by those who prevented the former from being jumped over the heads of his more deserving com rades.
 It is high time that some of the in- side history of this disgraceful matter should be published. The more the records of the war are studied by un- prejudiced persons, the more convinc-
 
 a grieyous mistake in choosing Samp- son for the supreme command. The fact is now admitted that he was ill during almost the entire war and that nearly everything done in his name was really done by his staff, chief Of whom was Captain Chadwick, who was a bitter personal enemy of Schley
 When Sampson acted by himself he messed things. Thus the famous My Dear Admiral letter, instructing Schley to make sure that Cevefa was not at Cienfuegos. was written by Sampson himself on his own motion. Two days later, Chadwick wrote the order to Schley to go direct to Santia- go, and this. though signed by Samp- son, was really unknown to him. The fact that the two letters condicted was not known until week later when an attack was made on Schley for hang. ing around Cienfuegos
 Again, a principal charge against Schley was that he did not open fire on two of the Spanish vessels that were lying at the mouth of Santiago when he arrived there But it has now been admitted that the same two yes ses were lying there when Sampson arrived and remained for six hours in easy range without being at tackled, Sampson being so busy get ting ready the Merrimac for the ridic- ulous errand that he did not think to open fire upon them
 Again Sampson is said to have planned the battle" that Schley fought when the Spaniards came out. The fact is that he did nothing of the kind. When Watson was sent to Ha- Vana some weeks before he found matters in chaos, and the blockade being run every night He devised a system to prevent this which worked splendidly Sampson was so much Impressed by it that he sent to Wat son for copies of the orders issued,

Y. MIG. A.
Subscriptions for 1901 Are Now Over
 $1.OOO.

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal But lay up for yourselves treas ures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt and where thieves do not break through and steal"
 The committee on subscriptions for the Y. M. c. A. are making their year ly canvass, calling on the business men, and all friends of this work. It has been several years since the As sociation debt was so nearly wiped out and it is the earnest desire of the officers to start the fifteenth year with the bills all paid. This will ne- eessitate the raising of 1,500 The entire subscription of last year was but $887. The running expense is about S100 per month and a Secretary and physical director will cost $125, making budget of S2,700 for $190f, if the work is carried on in d way where the best results can be obtain ed.
 The Y. M. C. A. is fortunate in hay ing such home furnished them, with no rent, taxes or insurance to pay This would appear, to those not conVersant with the work, to consti- tute about all the expense, outside of Secretary,s salry. The Association furnishes towels and soap to members using the bathing privileges, the bath rooms must be heated, and the hot water heater run from o'clock till 10 D. Tn. six days every week The reading room, parlors and gymnasium lighted and kept clean and comfort able. This costs snug sum eacf month. A janitor must be employed and the free reading rooms stocked with the leading magazines ant papers.
 All the privileges are furnished members for s5 per year This is les. than 10 cents week and the bathins privileges are open for as man, baths week as the members desire For every membership ticket takel out, the cost to the Y Nj. c. A. Ina, been estimated at S10
 To make up this deficiency the pub lie are called upon to subscribe eacl year.
 The subscription books are open q the Association rooms every nigh from 7 to 10 o'clock, and any one tn, committee has not called on, who may wish to do something this year, car call and put their names in the rec book and their dollars in a good work
 Respectfully
