WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 19-Fol-
lowing is the coment of the President
upon the appeal of Admiral Schley from
tho findings Of the Court of Inquiry:
White House,
February IS, 1902.
have received the appeal Of Admiral
:s5chley and the answer thereto from the
Navy Department. I have examined
both with the utmost care. as well as
the preceding appeal to the Secretary of
the Navy. l have read through all the
testtw ony taken before the Court and the
statements of the counsel for Admirals
Sampson and Schley; have examined ali
the official reports of every kind in ref
erence to the Santiago naval campaign,
copies of the log-books and signal books.
and the testimony before the Court of
Claims, and have also personally had be-
fore me the four surviving captains of
the five ships, aside from those of the
two admiralS, which were actively en-
gagged at Santiago.
1t appears that the Court Of Inquiry
was unanimous in its findings of fact and
unanimous in its expressions 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. 1
have however, gone carefully over the
evidence on these points also. I am sat
ished that on the whole the Court did
substantial justice. It should have speci:i-
cally condemned the failure to enforce an
efficient night blockade at Santiago while
Admiral Schley was in command. On the
other hand. I feel that there. is reason
able doubt whether he did not move his
squadron with sufficient expedition from
port to port. The Court is a tlnit. in con-
demning Admiral Schley's action on tho
point where. it seems to me. he most
gravely erred; his "retrograde movement
when ne abandoned the blockade, and his
disobedence of orders and nlisstatement
OF facts in relation thereto. 1t should be
remembered. however. that the majority
| of these actions which the Court censures
occurred five weeks sor more before the
fight itself. and it certainly seems that If
Admiral Schlcy's actions were censurable
he should not have been left as second
In command under Admiral Sampson. His
offenses were in effect condoned when he
was not called to account for them. Ad-
niral Sampson, after the fight. in an Of
fetal letter to the Department. alluded,
for the first time. to Admiral Schley's S
