Rear Admiral Fletcher
VIII Return Home

Washington, Jan. 4.-Rear Admiral
w. B. Fletcher, formerly in charge of
the navy convoy system, abroad, has
been relieved and ordered home as a
direct outgrowth of the torpedoing of
the American transport Antilles. This
fact leaked out today, considerab BILE
time after its occurrence, following
charges of Representative Brittin, nh-
nois, that the Antilles was sunk
through navy negligence.
Rear Admiral Fletcher---not the
Fletcher of Vera Cruz fame-did not
believe sufficient convoy was at his
disposal, it is claimed, but it rs a moot.
ed question in navy quarters whether
Admiral Sims, chief of operations, pro.
vided sufficiently.
In any event, 1t was held that
Fletcher's removal was advisable. No
court-martial wa held, so the incident
does not stand officially against his
record.
Secretary of the Navy Daniels re.
fused today to make public Fletcher s
name or to discuss in any way the out
come of the Antilles case.
