ON TWELVE COUNTS
Admiral Scliley Convicted By Court
of Inquiry.

Majority Report Finds Twelve Counts
Against Schiey, Cut Praises His
Conduct,
Washington. Special.?The most prolonged.
Interesting and important naval
tribunal ever held in this country
came to a close Friday having In open
and secret session lasted three months
short of one week, when Secretary
Long was handed the finding cf the
court of inquiry which examined into
the conduct of Rear Admiral Schley
during the Santiago campaign. For
seven weeks the court heard testimony
and for fully a month it deliberated
upon the mass of evidence, finally
reaching the conclusion announced
Friday. The result was a comrXle surprise
and it is probable that no prophesy
has approached the truth. Instead
of one report there are two. Both are
signed by George Dewey, president,
and by Sam. S. Lemly, as judge advo
cate. This is a form to be recognized
in all courts of inquiry, the sfgnatures
c?f the other mem hers not being necessary,
but it is explained that Admiral
Dewey signed the. second report, a minority
report, to express his qualification
of. or dissent from the views expressed
by the court, comprising beside
himself Admirals Benham and Ramsay,
in the first report. It is said at the
Navy Department that there will be no
further proceedings in this celebrated
caso on the Departments initiative.
Secretary lx>ng and Judge Advocate .
Lemly positively decline to discuss the
finds In any phase. The Secretary received
the report? at 5 o'clock Friday
evening and he has not yet acted upon
them. It is probable that he will simply
append his signature with the word
"Approved" to the whole record. The
court itself recommends no further
proceedings, owing to the lapse of
lime.
After reviewing the conduct of Schley
during the whole campaign, the court
gives the following
"OPINION:
"Commodore Schley, in command of !
the flying squadron, should have proceeded
with the utmost dispatch off !
ort'l KfiVO TTl flitll'lln. 1
ed a close blockade of that port.
"He should have endeavored on May
23. at Cienfuegos, to obtain information.
regarding: the Spanish squadron
by communicating with tho insurgents
at the place designated in the memorandum
delivered to him at 8:15 a. m. <
of that date. j
"He should have promptly obeyed
Cienfuegos to Santiago de Cuba with J
all dispatch, and should have disposed 1
of his vesesls with a view o? intercept- 1
ing the enemy In any attempt to pass <
:hc flying squadron. 1
"He should not have delayed the j
squadron for the Eagle.

"He should have promptly oveyed
the Navy Department's orders of May
25. I
"He should havo endeavored to capture
or destroy the Spanish vessels at
anchor near the entrance of Santiago
harbor on May 29 and 30.
"He did not do his utmost with the
force under his command, to capture !
or destroy the Colon and other vessels <
af the enemy which he attacked cn May |

"I3y commencing the engagement on
July 3 with the port lattery, and turn- '
Insr the Brooklyn around with port !
helm. Commodore Schley caused her to lose
distance and position with the
Spanish vessels, especially with the
Vlscaya and Colon.
"The turn of the Brooklyn to starboard
was made to avoid getting hor
Into dangerous proximity to the Span- i
ish vessels. The turn was made to- I
ward the Texas and caused that vessel ,
to stop and to back her engines to
avoid possible collision.
"Admiral Schley did inlustlce to
Lieutenant Commander A. C. Hodgson j
In publishing only a portion of tho cor- i
respondenco which passed between j
them. |
"Commodore Schley's conduct in (
connection with the events of the San- :
tiago campaign prior to June 1. 18DS, J
was characterized by a vaciliation, di- J
latoriness and lack of enterprise. i
"His official reports regarding the ;
coal supply and the coaling facilities
of the flying squadron were inaccurate
and misleading.
"His conduct during the tnttlc or
July 3 was self-possessed aud he encouraged,
in his own person, his subordinate
oSicers and men to fight eour- 1
ageously. GEORGE DEWEY,
"Admiral U. S. N.. resident. I
"SAM C. LEMLEY, 1
"Judge Advocate General U. S. N.,
Judge Advocate." i
"In the opinion.of the undersigned
the passage from Key West to Clen- i
fuegos was made by the flying squadron
with all possible dispatch. Commodore
Schley having in view (he importance
of arriving off Cienfucgos
with as much coal as possible in the
ship's bunkers.
"The blockade of Cienfucgos was effective.
"Commodore Schley, In permitting
the steamer Adula to enter the port of
Cienfuagos expected, to obtain in for- {
mation concerning the Spanish squad- |
ron from her when she came out.
/
"The passae? from Cienfuegns to n
point about 22 miles south of SanCr.ro
was made with as much dispatch as
was possible while keeping the squadron
a unit.
"The blockade of Santiago was effective.
"Commodore Schley was the senior
officer of our squadron off Santiago
when the Spanish squadron 2t(anipted
to escape on the morning of July 3rd.
1S08. Ho was in absolute command and
is entitled to the credit dee to' such
commanding officer for the glorious
victory which resulted in the total destruction
of the Spanish ships.

"SAM LEMLY.
"Judge Advocate General, U. S. N..
Judge Advocate." ,
"RECOMMENDATION. * }
"In view of the length of time which
has elapsed since the occurrence of the
events of the Santiago campaign, the
court recommends no further proceedings
be had in the premises.
