PAUL MORTON'sORDER REvOkED'
Ecc'y Bonaparte VetOes Transfer OF Civil
Engineers Made At Contractors Request.

WASHINGTON, july ,5.-Secretary Bona
parte Of the Navy Department has revoked
the order made by his predecessor, Paul
Morton, for the transfer Of Civil Engineers
j. W. g. Walker and F. r. Harris from the
Charleston navy yard to other stations.
After the order was first made the two
officers requested an investigation, where
upon the order was suspended pending the
outcome of the investigation. Assistan t
Secretary Darling conducted the examina :
ton and had number Of witnesses called.
He made comprehensive report to Secre-
tary Bonaparte. who in turn made his report
to the President, who approved it.
The demand for the transfer of the two
officers from Charleston was made by John
Dougherty, president Of the New York
tary Morton placed the matter in the hands
Of Rear Admiral Endicott. Chief Of the
Bureau Of Yards and Docks. When the
Admiral failed to take action promptly in
accordance with MIR. Dougherty's demand
he renewed it to the Secretary Of the Navy.
who made the order of transfer on June Is.
Secretary Ronaparte says:
This contractor thus repeatedly re-
quested that these supervisors of his work
be replaced by, others and the Department
finally complied with its request. Whatever
might have been the merits of such action,
cumstanoes, am compelled to look upon it
as unfortunate when thus induced and under
the circumstances actually existing. In my
opinion its moral effect would be probably
undesirable upon contractors for Govern
nent work and supervising officers, and on
the whole unsatisfactory both within and
without the service"
Secretary Bonaparte found on investiga-
ton that previously to these repeated re-
quests from Mr. Dougherty, no transfer of
the officers in question had been contem-
plated. The chief of the bureau of yards
and docks, while admonishing them not to
permit themselves to be drawn into trivial
or needless disputes with agents of the
contractor, had also complimented them
on their vigilance and zeal"
The Secreta ry concludes that under all
the attendant circumstances, a mistake
was made when these orders were issued.
This mistake deem it my duty to correct.
Unless, therefore. instructed to the con-
trary by you, shall revoke the above mem
toned order and direct the two officers
above mentioned to remain at their post
of present duty until further orders"
