LIEUTENANT COMMANDER WILLIAM VI
H. SCHUETZE,
Who died suddenly at the Naval Hospital
In Washington yesterday.
and until their wishes have been ascer-
will not be completed.
Commander Schuetze had suffered from a
complication of acute stomach and lung
troubles. but his condition was not thought
TO be serious.
His death ends one of the most creditab BILE
and interesting careers of the naval service.

was graduated at the head of his class in
1873
He was selected to go on the expedition
which went into the Lena delta and brought
back the bodies of those who died in the
famous Arctic expedition of DeLong in the
Inflated jeanette. He spoke Russian fluent
ly. and in 1882 was sent again to the far
north at the instance of the State Depart
ment TO distribute presents among the ma
uves CT North Siberia in return for their
kindi tss to the DeLong party.
Commander Schuetze was a man of hish
atta:nments. unusually equipped for the SCI
entific branches of the naval service and
an expert in compass work. bringing that
instrument to high state of perfection for
the navy. He was the navigator Of the Icwa
during TIE Spanish-American War and toc,s
part in the battle of Santiago. His last du-
ty was in charge of the Compass Division OF
the Bureau Of Equipment
Commander Schuetze was appointed Su-
perintendent Of Compass in 1888. and from
1889 to 1890 served with the famous white
Squadron on the Chicago. He was a man
Of splendid physique. being one Of the arg
est and strongest officers in the service His
death comes as great surprise and shock
to his acquaintances in and out Of the serv-
ice. among whom he was very popular
