SLOWED TO SALUTE
Captain of Italian School Ship
Explains.
WAS UNAWARE OF PRACTICE
Course Was Changed , Only Out of
Naval Courtesy Regret Ex
pressed Over Misunder
standing. BALTIMORE, Sept. 3. Captain Flllpplo
Baggio, Marquis of Ducarrlo, commander
of the Italian school ship, today pro
nounced as untrue the story of alleged
impropriety on his part while his vessel
was steaming through the American
fleet off Caps Henry last Saturday. Cap
tain Baggio is much chagrined over the
reports, and expressed ' the belief that
they could not have originated with the
American Naval officers.
In a statement made before he could
have seen the Washington dispatch of
the Associated Press, expressing the re
gret of Navy Department officials over
the publications asoriblng improper nio
tlves to him. Captain Baggio said:
"We came to Baltimore from Bermuda,
and I beg to state that it was not known
there that the American fleet was en
gaged in target practice. As we ap
proached the Capes we saw the fleet,
and 1 naturally changed our. course a
trifle, that we might salute.
"We saluted, and as the Americans
were slow in answering, we rang down to
half speed, in order that the American
flagship might return the salute.
"When the flagship returned the salute,
we steamed full speed ahead and proceed
ed to Baltimore. That our action should
be taken amiss causes me much regret."
CRUISER TURNS IXQUISITOR
Italian yessel Violates Etiquette at
American Target Grounds.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8. A matter that
may cause official correspondence be
tween this country and Italy has Just
been brought to light in naval circles
here. The incident occurred during the
target practice of the Atlantic fleet off
Cape Henry Saturday, when the cruiser
Aetna, a school ship, steamed through the
fleet and went close enough to the targets
to observe them.
The American officers became indignant
when the Aetna's officers were seen to
put their glasses on the various devices
used by the fleet. The Aetna saluted the
admiral's flag and "Rear-Admiral Waln
wright replied from his flagshipr Naval
etiquette demanded these ealutes, but
naval etiquette also demanded the avoid
ance of a fleet when it Is at target prac
tice. Criticism Awaits Explanation.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 3. General re
gret is expressed In Administration cir
cles over the publication, ascribing im
proper motives to the commander of the
Italian cruiser Aetna, which, on Satur
day morning last, is reported to have
steamed between the ships of the Atlan
tic battleship fleet engaged in target
practice off the Virginia Capes.
- Naval officers expressed the opinion
that any criticism of the commander of
the vessel should be withheld until evi
dence is at hand that he had in any way
violated International propriety in an ef
fort to observe ' the operations and re
sults of the gunners' work aboard the
vessels
The Aetna, they say, is a guest of the
Nation, and it would be improbable that
the commander would -be guilty of an
affront to our people. The officers say
the ship was on her way to an American
port and that if she slowed up, as re
ported, when approaching the fleet. It
was in all probability because of her In
tention to pass in at the Capes and make
the port.
