JUDGE ADVOCATE LEMLY
REPLIES TO ScHLEYs APPEAL.
Reply Conteuds That schiey Has shifted
His Ground Since the Hearing.

The comment of Judge Advocate
General Lemly and Solicitor Hanna
upon the appeal OF Admiral Schley, as
submitted to the president by Secre.
tary Long, is less than third as long
as the appeal itself, fact accounted
for by the comparatively few quota,
tions from the courts finding in the
case of the comment" The commen-
tators begin with the statement thai
Admiral Schley and his counsel. have
shifted their ground.
They say the chief features of the
case were the .'retrograde movement y
"disobedience of ORDERS" '.inaccurate
and misleading official reports" fail
ure to destroy vessels of the enemy
lying within sight" and injustice to a
brother officer" These matters are
all grave. The first was that the fin.
est aggregation of American naval
vessels under one command was, by
Schley's direction, turned about aud
headed for Key West, more than ZOO
miles distant, when within twenty-five
miles of antiago, where the enemy's
ships were.
The second was that Schley deliber.
ately and knowingly disobeyed the
secretary's order overtaking him in his
retrograde movement. The third was
that Schley's reason, officially given,
for the retrograde movement and dis
obedience of orders, l. e., ''that the
flying squadron was short on coal, !"
was not true. The fourth was that for
four days the Spanish ships lay within
reach of the flying squadron and no
sufficient effort was made to destroy
them. The fifth alleges that Samp,
sons plan of night blockade forced
the enemy to come out of the harbor
in day ytime, and that had Schley not
abandoned the position assigned to
the Brooklyn, and thereby made an
opening through which the Spanish
vessels put to sea, they would have
been sunk in the channel, or soon after
emerging from it,

ISTHMiAN WATERWAY.
Substitute for Nicarasuan Canal NH In
troduced In Senate.

just before the adjournment of the
senate, Tuesday, Senator Spooner In
troduced a substitute for the Nicaragus
canal bill. The new bill is practical
authorization TO the president of the
United States to choose between the
Panama and the Nicaragua routes.
The tirst provision looks to the acquisi-
tion OF the franchises, right of way and
other property of the new Panama
Canal company of France. including
that company's control of the Panama
railroad.
The president is authorized to pay
$40, ,ooo, 900 for these, provided a salts
factory title can be obtained" He Is
then authorized to secure the neces-
sary concessions from the republic of
Columbia, these to include the per-
petual control of a ten-mile strip Of,
territory from the Caribbean sea to the
Pacific ocean. A canal sufficient to
accommodate the largest vessels is
then to be constructed under the
supervision Of the secretary of war.
The bill also carries an alternative
provision authorizing the president to
proceed with the construction of the
Nicaragua canal in case he fails to
secure the necessary concessions from
Colombia or satisfactory title from
the Panama Canal company. An Inn
mediate. e.appropriation of $40, 900, 900 is
made in either event. The limit of
cost is fixed at $l35, 900, 900 in case the
Panama route is chosen, while $780,
100000 is allowed in case the choice
falls on the Nicaragua route.

Old Sea Captain Favors Nicaragua Route
For Isthminn Canal.

Captain J. s. Bryan was before .
subcommittee of the senate commit
tee on Inter-0ceenic Canals Tuesday.
He is an old sea captain and has spent
much time in the coastwise trade Of
Central America. He also has had an
experience of several months in navi4
eating Lake Nicaragua and has trav-
ersed the Panama route. He expressed
strong preference for the Nicaragua
route, both on account OF climate and
feasibility. One objection raised by him
to the Panama route was on account
of the harbors. He said that on the
Atlantic end of the proposed line there
is no harbor at all rendering 1t nsces-
sary for ships to put to sea in case of
storm, while on the Pacific side sailing
ships entering the harbor invariably
find themselves becalmed. In that
harbor, he said, tow for two miles
out was necessary.

His statement covered the scientific
