In his letter to Seeretarj Long, whle-h Is Uatcd New York. April 27. Captain Chad wick sajs: "I have In no way been privy to the pub lication cf said article. The- circumstances en which It Is based are. a follows: "On the 16th or 17th of this mor.th. In passing- down Fourteenth street In Wash ington. I was saluted by Mr. Atkins, corres pondent of the Brooklja Eagle, agentle nan whom I have known in Washington o. number of jears. and always f.aorably. Sir. Atkins had called my uttcntlon January 2. last, to an editorial of Ui- Rrookljn Eagle of. I think. December 31. IIM. ex pressing an extreme d.sire for mo to read It and asking If ho coull see me. 1 de clined to see him a 1 knew tint he prob ' bly wished to discuss a conndenual sub ject. "I later obtained a copy of tho paper re ferred to nr.d read the (dltorlal mentioned. It was a discussion of the controversy re garding near Admiral Schley, and proposed a remedy. viz: Uie promotion of both Rear Admiral Schley and Rear Admiral Sampson to Vice Admiral.' "At tho casual meeting mentioned (on tho 15th or 17th lest.) I catered into conversa tion with Mr. Atkins regarding: the editorial. I nsked If he hid received a i.ote which I had sent him on reading It. in which 1 said tho writer was evidently not aware of the facts In the case and that ho entirely mis took the principle involved. This was thj test of the note, so far as I remember. "Mr. Atkins said, jes, ho had received the note and had not used it In any way. I replied: 'Of course, not': that It wad en tirely private. I repeated what I had said lii the note and said tho qjestlon upon which the navy stood was not the advance ment of anv particular man. but one o honor. I added that the whole difficulty In the matter wa3 with the press In general, which had failed to put before the country the fact", based upon Hear Admiral Schley's own signals and dispatches, stated In tno letter of the Secretary of tho Navy to tho Senato of tho 6th of Februiry. 133; that the peoplo In general were thus ignorant of the true statU3 of tho case: that the Secre tary's letter, which. Of course, was virtual ly the President's ilatcmeat of the mailer, was as nevcre an arraignment ai it was possible to make regarding an officer, and accused him of conduit such that no officer should remain silent under the accusations; that everv sentiment of military honor de manded that Admiral Schley should as for a court to clear himself of such charges, and that I believed every officer or the navy would be most pleased to se him clcarod. for the honor of th-s service, and that I could certainly nay so fur mjself; that S3 long as ho remained silent under these charges 1 would not take his hand or meet him socially; that It was Impossible to ad vance Admiral Schley as the cditonat pro posed) so long as he rested under theso charges, without eVstroying the whole etandard of honor and duty In the navy; that the whole navy. so far as I knew, was of this opinion, and that 1U attitude was a matter of self-preservation. "The foregoing gives my remarks in sub stance end purport as far as my recollec tion serves me. The conversation was en tirely private to regarded by me. and also. 1 supposed, by Mr. Atkins, as evidence of which latter Is the fact that he knew that my note, which consisted of. .t far as I remember, but this one short phrase men tioned, was private: and also that nearly or quite a week, passed before he mentioned any conversation publicly. It was in no tense and In no part intends 1 for publica tion, nor considered an Interview." T!n Reprimand. Secretary Long In his letter. sajs. "The department regrets that it lias oc casion to reprimand an officer of jour rank and experience for inexcusable indiscre tion and offccai against tho navy regula tions. ... . . . "It appears from your letter that In jour Interview with Mr. Atkins, whom you knew to be a newspaper correspondent. you spoke of a fellow -othcer. jour senior in rank. In a way calculated to bring him Into contempt, You knew this to be a vio lation of tho naval regulations waloh for bid the communication by intcrvluws of Mich comment and criticism, lou knew It to be against tho good order and disci pline of the service, because it Is the ex ample of one officer In high rank reflecting upon tho honor and character of anothc r an example which, unrthuked and fol lowed, tends to bring the whole service 111- Nio contention ana scanuai. iou Knew u.ai the professional business of your Interview ee lu 11-4 collier Tnnlprial for nutillcntlnn While ho may .not have- hid Justification in publishing what you understood and re tarded as understood by hlra. to be private, conversation, you Jtnew the risk jou ran. and within a j-ear had been r.pnmandd for slmll-v misconduct In putting yourself and the welfare of the service to the same risk, with the same result. You have thu.s again and further Impaired the confidence of tho department in jour discretion. "It Is true that j-our case dtfTcrs from some recent cases of offense on ihe part of other officers In that objectionable re marks made by thom wero made on occa sions and under circumstances which thiy knew assured their publicity. In j'our caso tho department unreservedlv accepts jour statement that your remarks were 'in no sense and In no part Intended for publica tion, cor considered as an interview. It Is for this reason that It takes no oilier action than this emphatic reprimand, th receipt of which jou will acknowledge. 'erj" respectfully. join n long, "Secretary." NEWS OF THE CHURCHES.
