FLEET CAPTAIN
is IN DISGRACE
Commander of the Battleship
Georgia Is Placed Under
Arrest at Gibraltar.
COURT-MARTIAL Will TRY HIM
Capt. Qualtr0ugh Denies the Charge
and Attributes His Condition
to Fatigue.

Gibraltar, Feb. 3.-Capt. E. F. Quail
trough of the battleship Georgia of
the fleet under Rear Admiral Sperry
is under arrest On board his own YES
sci and will be tried by court-martial
on charges preferred by Rear Admi-
raj Wainwright, commander of the
second division of the battleship
squadron, that he was under the in
f1uence of intoxicants at a reception
given on shore a few days ago.
Capt. Qualtrough was relieved from
duty by the rear admiral Immediately
after the reception, and the execu-
tive officer was placed in command.
The ship was brought into Gibraltar
by the executive officer.
Admiral Sperry, after considering
the report of the rear admiral, decid-
ed upon court-martial and appoint
ed the members
Captain Denies Charge.
The head of the court is Rear Admi-
raj Seaton Schroeder, and Maj Dion
Williams of the marine corps is judge
advocate.
Capt. Qualtrough denies the charge
His defense will be that he was I'M
der a heavy strain during the last
run of his vessel, on account of rough
weather: that on the day of the re-
ception he had been on the bridge
since O'Clock in the morning; that
he did not drink anything during the
day, and partook sparingly of the
wine served at the dinner which pre-
ceded the reception. Fatigue was re-
sponsible for his appearance.
This affair has been kept quiet, but
none the less it has created a painful
impression, as it is the first charge
preferred against an officer of high
rank since the beginning Of the
cruise.
