STORY WITHOUT TRUTH
Evans Has Not Disobeyed Naval
Boards Instructions.
BEST OF FEELING EXISTS
Statement by tho Chief of the Naviga-
ton Bureau.
COMPLETE HARMONY PREVAILS
No Suggestions Offered as to the Man
ner of Conducting the Maneuvers
of the Atlantic Fleet.
COMPLETE HARMONY PREVAILS

Persistent efforts that have been made re-
Gently q create the impression that serious
frlctlon existed between the naval general
board and Rear Admial Evans, command
ing the Atlantic fleet, have at length at
tracted the attention of naval officers in
Washing ton, who at first ignored the pub
lications and refused to dignity them with
denial At last, however, Rear Admiral
Brownson, chief of the naviga ton bureau
Navy Department, and himself one of the
most influential members of the general
board, today took occasion to deny the
story that Admiral Evans had deliberately
disregarded the instructions of the general
board relative to the manner in which he
was to conduct the drills and maneuvers of
the great fleet under his command.
Denied by Brownson.
Admiral Brownson in reply to the uues-
ton to whether Admiral Evans had de-
clined to carry out any instructions of that
kind replied categorically that he had not
SO declined. He added while, as a rule. it
was not good policy to discuss the proceed
ings of the general board publicly in this
case it was proper to safe that one reason
why Admiral Evans had not refused to
obey the instructions of the board was be-
cause the board had given him no instruc-
tions.
1t was suggested that perhaps the story
was based upon Admiral Evans neglect to
u,
which, while he was not directed to exc
cute, it was thought that he might under
take at the mere suggestion.
No Suggestions offered
But Admiral Brownson went further than
his first denial, and declared that not only
had the general board refra ned from Civ
ing any instructions to Admiral Evans, but
1t had not even offered suggestion to him
within the past six months The fact was
that the board was otherwise engaged So
Admiral Brownson wished it to be under
stood that not only was the story untrue
that Admiral Evans disregarded either in
structions or suggestions from the general
board. but that it was true that the best
Of feeling existed between them and that
there was absolutely no friction.
Secretary Metcalf himself supplemented
Admiral Brownson's statement by saying
that the Navy Department was perfectly
satisfied with what had been done by Ad-
miral Evans and that he regarded him as
an officer Of great ability and sound judg-
ment.

port might be expected from him during

There were present at the dinner the gov

in the Mississippi valley, besides the inland
waterways commission. which includes sew
eral members of Congress and a represent
ative gathering of the business men of St.

There was no particular emphasis placed
by the President upon the word brief" but
II was spoken in a matter-of-fact Way
which led even the western men who had
been roofing loudest for him to believe that
he intends to retire from the presidency at
the end of his present term and that he will
not be candidate next year.
