terranean and northern European ports
with his flag flying over 4 smaller fight
ing vessel, which might be construed
as reduction in rank.
The Illinois, the flagship he was Civ
en- when he left the bureau OF naviga-
ton to assume command of the Euro
uean station, was taken away from
him at the conclusion of the winter
maneuvers in the Caribbean. This was
in accordance with plan of the gen
eral board of the navy, of which Adj
miral Dewey is the head, to concen-
trate all the battleships of the navy
into the north Atlantic squadron and
the Asiatic squadron.
Rear Admiral CrowninShield made n
communication to the navy department
against the change. and the Brooklyn
was decided upon as the flagship of the
European squadron. This, however,
was not satisfactory to Crowninshield.
Rear Admiral Aren't Schuyler Crown
inshield's service is considered eminent
ly valuable by the navy department.
He is native of New York and en-
tered the navy in 1860 and has there
fore been in the service for nearly for
ty-three years. In 1868 he went to the
front and was present in several hot en-
gagements. Since the civil war he has
held many important posts. including
that of chief of the bureau of naviga-
ton during the period of the Spanish
war, when the United States navy de-
veloped its greatest efficiency and
achieved its greatest renown. Mrs.
Crowninshield. formerly Miss Mary
Bradford, is well known as an author.
Admiral Crowninshield retires under
that section of the personnel act which
authorizes him to do so at an advanced
grade in consideration of service in the
civil war He is in the list of junior
admirals. but his retirement places him
in the first grade. His retired pay Will
be s., 625 per year.
