SCHLEY DEMANDS^ AN INQUIRY.
Santiago's Hero Calls His De
tainers Into Court.
The Sarupson-Schley controversy in revived again in all its pristine
warmth. But this lime Schley himself is taking a hand in a way that
is likely to settle the issues so that they wilt stay settled. Through all
Ihe tumult of jealous slander and malevolent defamation heaped upon him
since his great victory' at Santiago, Schley has been a patient and loyal
officer and n gentleman. His bearing under the malignant hounding
which has fallen to his lot Has been none tbe less creditable to him thau
was his part in the destruction of Cerwra’s fleet. Living up to his de
claration that there was "glory enough for all" in that great day’s
achievement, he lias felt content to suffer persecution iu silence and to
await tbe vindication of litue and history. At last the reckless spleen
of his maddened critics have caused them to rash in where angels fear
to tread, and the niaguanimoua old naval biro has at oue flue stroke
brought the whole pack to hay.
The story of these recent events is given as ll has been gathered
from tbe daily papers. At tbe Naval Academy at Annapolis a History
of tbe United Stales Navy writtcu by one Maclay was used as u text
book for the students. It was in two volumes. The author wrote a
third volume to Include the events of the Spanish war, and in this he
Included so ranch slander and envenomed villificstion of Admiral Schley
that the press of Baltimore and other cities felt impelled to denounce the
great Injustice and to demand tiie removal of the offending volume from
the course of study. Secretary I.ong immediately (June 19I ordered
that the scurrilous work be stricken from the list of text books at the
Naval Academy. Commandant Wainwriglit of the Naval Academy
wrote Secretary Long next day that this volume IU. was not in nsc as
a text-book at the Naval Academy nor had any proposition been made
looking to its adoption.
But the contents had become public aiul Schley took due notice of
the attacks upon bis character as is set forth in the subjoined accounts
from the daily prnw.
