President Roosevelt in his strad-

Following ia synopsis Of ths
Presidents decision:
at appears that tho court of
inquiry was unanimous in it's ind

expressions of opinion on most of
its findings Of fact. No appeal
is made to me from the verdict of
the court on these points where it
was unanimous. I have, however,
! G NO carefully over tho evidence
on these points also. / am salts
fed that on the whole, the court
did substantial justice.
''It should have specifically con.
demned the failure to enforce An
efficient night blockade at SAINT
iago while Admiral Schley was in
command. On the other hand,
I feel that there is reasonable
doubt whether he did not move
his squadron with sufficient expedi-
tion from port to port. The
court is united in condemning
Admiral Schley's action on the
point where it seems to me he
most gravely erred, HE retro
gade movement, when he aband-
oned the blockade; his disobed-
ience of orders and misstatement
of facts in relation thereto. II
should be remembered, however,
that the majority Of these actions,
which the court censurs occurred 5
weeks or moro before the fight it.

Admiral Schley's acions were
