INQUIRY AND SUIT Charges Against Schley to Be Investigated, THE ADMIRAL WILL DEMAND IT After the Naval Inquiry He "Will Sac the Author of the "History of the United States Navy"' for Libel. WASHINGTON, July 23. The Washing ton Post last night telegraphed Admiral Schley that in an editorial It Insisted that he owed it to himself, as well as to his friends-, to begin proceedings against Mr. Maclay, the author of the "History of the United States Navy," to disprove the latter's charge, adding: "Will you do this? Please wire statement." Today it received the following telegram: "Great Neck, L. I., July 23. Editor Washington Post: I believe the first step should be investigation of all matter by a court, then a civil action afterward. I am 'preparing to take thi course. "W. S. SCHLEY." The Post in the morning, as a result of extensive inquiries based upon the Ad miral's dispatch, will say, in part: "Admiral Schley purposes to ask an In vestigation at the hands of a naval court of inquiry and then to sue Historian Mac lay for libel. His action Is the sequel to the development during the past week, when the entire country has been stirred by the publication of the unexampled abuse poured out upon 'him In the third volume of E. S. Maclay's history of the United Staes Navy, in which .publication Schley Is said to have run away, 'in caitiff flight,' and Is, In addition, de nounced as a coward, a cur and a traitor. "The Schley court of inquiry will un doubtedly be one of the most celebrated cases In the naval or military history of the country. The high rank of the officers Involved In the controversy, and the In tense public feeling which has been aroused will combine to give to the Inves tigation a dramatic interest. Nothing has occurred In Washington for many years that will compare with it. The. appoint ment of the court of Inquiry Is expected to be made ny Secretary Long, though It would be in the power of the President to make the selections, If he chose. This is hardly likely to occur, however. Mr. Long has already stated that if Admiral Schley requested a court of Inquiry he would grant the request, and has also expressed his willingness personally to se lect the court. While ha has not made any statement as to its personnel, there is every reason to believe that he favors Admiral Dewey and Rear-Admirals Ram say and Benhanv the two latter being now upon the retired list. The name of Admiral Walker has been suggested, but it is known' that he has expressed views upon the Sampson-Schley controversy in antagonism to Schley, and his appoint ment would, therefore, be seriously ques tioned. It Is said that Dewey, Ramsay and Benham have always carefully avoid ed giving an opinion as to the merits of the controversy. "Three names are mentioned because that number is specified in the regula tions for courts of inquiry. There is a possibility that Admiral Dewey might ask to be excused, ns he would have a right to do, but it is also morally certain that in this event he would be specifically de tailed by the Secretary for service on the board. This would make his attendance imperative. Secretary Long has, from the moment that a court of inquiry was sug gested, favored the appointment of Ad miral Dewey, believing that his appoint ment would give the highest character to the court, and that any decision it might reach would be accepted by the American people." The Grounds of Criticism. With respect to the matters to be in quired into by the court of inquiry, the Post will say that it might be difficult to state briefly the exact questions which will come before the court, but that Ad miral Schley condensed them In a letter written to Senator Hale, chairman of the Senate committee on naval affairs, Feb ruary IS, 1S99. 'This letter divided the crit icisms of himself into four heads, as fol lows: First The alleged delay off Clenfuegos, Cuba. Second The alleged slow progress to ward Santiago de Cuba from Clenfuegos. Third The retrograde movements on, the 26th and 27th of May (this refers to the turning of the fleet from Santiago towards Key West.) Fourth The battle of Santiago and the destruction of Cervera's fleet. It is to be expected, saya the Post, that Admiral Schley, in his letter to the Sec retary requesting a court of Inquiry, will specify these grounds of criticism, and that Senator Long will, In turn, repeat them in his orders assembling the court. It Is expected that as soon as Secre tary Long receives request for a court of Inquiry from Admiral Schley, he will name its personnel and issue an order for Its asembllng. Admiral Sampson, who will, next to Admiral Schley, be the principal figure at the Inquiry. Is stationed at the Bos ton Navy Yard. Of the Captains at San tiago, Captain Cook, of the Brooklyn, is at Annapolis; Captain Clark, of the Oregon, is at League Island; Captain Chadwick, of Admiral Sampson's flag ship, the New York, is at Newport; Cap tain, now Rear-Admiral Taylor, of the Indiana, Is at the Brooklyn Na.vy Yard; Captain, now Rear-Admiral Evans, is de tailed as a member of the Inspection and survey board In this city; Captain Hlgglnson, of the Massachusetts, is com mander of the North Atlantic Squadron; Lieutenant-Commander Wainwright, of the Gloucester, is superintendent of the Naval Academy at Annapolis: Lieutenant Sharp, of the Vixen, Is executive- officer of the Hartford, which is now off the coast of Sweden. Captain Philip, of the Texas, Is dead. A court of Inquiry differs from a court martial in that It has no power to In flict a sentence. It is organized simply for the purpose of investigating questions of fact, but It has authority to make the Inquiry complete and exhaustive. An Important officer of the court will be the Judge-Advocate and Recorder, who Interrogates the witnesses. Secre tary Long will undoubtedly take unusual care in the selection of this officer who will be chosen from the list of Cap tains who participated with Dewey In tViA Manila, battle. Under the Naval refir- I ulatlon'SJpiA.dmlral Schley will be allowed tho attendance of counsel who- will have the right to suggest questions to the Judge-Advocate. It is not known whether Admiral Sampson will ask the privilege of being also represented by. counsel. The sessions of court undoubtedly will be open, although its members have the right to prevent this. SCHLEY'S REQUEST FOR INQUIRY. He Is Sorry There Should Be a Con troversy Over the Matter. NEW, YORK, July 23. The Herald will say tomorrow: Rear-Admiral Wlnfield Scott Schley has asked Secretary Long to appoint a court of Inquiry to determine the facts In re gard to his course in the Santiago cam paign. The Admiral drove from Elm Point to the Great Neck, L. I., post office yesterday afternoon and a few minutes before 3 o'clock mailed a letter which was addressed to John D. Long, Secretary of the Navy, at Washington. Though the Admiral would not -talk of this letter, the nature of Its contents was known to others in Great Neck, and there is no doubt that Secretary Long, when he opens It today, will find in it a request for a formal and official Inquiry. When Admiral Schley was pressed to make some statement of his position, he wrote the following sentence: "I really think that as this matter is liable to take the form of a judicial Inves tigation, I ought not to be subject to in terview. I think that action is preferable to words, and I have decided to act. More than this, I ought not to be expected to say, but I will add that it Is a very great pity that there should be any con troversy over matters where everybody did his best." THE OKLAHOMA OPENING. Injunction Proceedings at El Reno "Will Not Delay. WASHINGTON, July 23. Secretary Hitchcock said today with reference to the effort to prevent the opening of the Okla homa Indian lands to setthfment by in junction proceedings at El Reno, that the preparations of the department for the opening would proceed as If no suit had been begun. "Weshall not let the matter go by de fault," he said, "but we apprehend no obstacle from the proceedings. Any one can bring a suit." The Secretary today took cognizance of reports coming from Oklahoma that the men who are registering at El Reno and Fort Sill are doing so with the intention of transferring their rights to others at enormous profits. "That is absurd," said he, "because It Is impossible under the regulations for them to transfer their rights. They take an oath to use their rights for their own exclusive benefits. There can be no spec ulation in these numbers." OklohomaXa'w and'6rder League. FORT SILL, O. T July 23. A law and order league vhas been formed here to suppress the dozens of crooks who have Infested the country since the Kiowa Comanche reslgstratlon began.

Threats of the workmen to strike for higher wages are believed by many to have been the cause of the Importation. This Is denied by the officials of the company. They declare that the only reason th'e negroes are brought here is that it was' Impossible to secure sufficient white help to do the work demanded from the Latrobe Com pany by the United States Steel Com pany. A mass meeting was held tonight to protest against the Importations. It was freely prophesied that bloodshed would follow the importation of the ne groes. MONTANA MINING SUIT. Another Action to Have the Trust Deal Set Aside. BUTTE, Mont, July 23. John MacGIn nls, vice-president and general manager of the Montana Ore Purchasing Company, has brought suit In the District Court here against the Boston & Montana Com pany, Its directors and officers, the Amal gamated Company and Its president to have a receiver appointed for the Bos ton & Montana. He wants a decree that the Amalgamated has no right to any of the shares of the Boston & Montana and that the shares now held by It be canceled and surrendered to the latter company. The transfer of control In the Boston & Montana was made to the Amalgamated recently through the decision of the New Jersey court.

LORD MILNER, OF CAPE TOAVN. JLONPPX., July 23. The presentation of the freedom or the- City of London to Lord Mllner. of Cape Town, at the Guild Hall, today, was made the occasion of anotlier Jltigo demonstration in favor of, the war in South Africa and the policy of the government. Joseph Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary; the Duke of Devonshire, President of the Council, and other Cabinet Ministers; Lord Cro mer, British Diplomatic Agent in Egypt, and Sir Claude Macdonald. British ex Mlnister to China, were among those on the platform. Lord Mllner. In a speech, said the compromising of the settlement of the South African situation by injudicious concessions must not be thought of, nor should the risk of a popular rising be run by treating deliberate and crime stained treason as a venial offense. The speaker said there was an Immense difference between the stout old burghers of the late republics and the "roilng riifflans" harrowing their fellow British subjects of Cape Colony. "While K was resolved to treat the old burghers, when the war was over, with fairness and even generosity, convincing them that, though they had lost independence, they had not lost their freedom," continued Lord Mllner. "The loyalists In South Af rica who had shown such splendid devotion to the empire and the work of re construction already going on should not be alienated." By the bold development of resources and an incorruptible government, it was hoped, his Lordship con cluded, soon to relieve Great Britain of what had been called the "obcesslon" of South Africa. tlrement. Governor Allen brought with him to Boston all of his household effects when he came from San Juan .and he does not expect to return to Porto Rico.
